#41131: Dependencies on different variants of specific port cannot be resolved automatically -------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: an0nym@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Low | Milestone: Component: base | Version: 2.2.1 Keywords: | Port: -------------------------+-------------------------------- Let's say we want to `sudo port install djview pidgin +no_x11+quartz`, they recursively depend on cairo +x11 and cairo +quartz+x11 respectively. cairo +x11 gets installed within djview installation {{{ ---> Fetching archive for cairo ---> Attempting to fetch cairo-1.12.16_1+x11.darwin_13.x86_64.tbz2 from http://lil.fr.packages.macports.org/cairo }}} and then an error occurs within pidgin +no_x11+quartz installation because its dependency gtk2 depends on cairo +quartz {{{ ---> Fetching archive for gtk2 Error: org.macports.archivefetch for port gtk2 returned: cairo must be installed with +quartz. Error: Failed to install gtk2 Please see the log file for port gtk2 for details: /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_gnome_gtk2/gtk2/main.log Error: The following dependencies were not installed: gconf gtk2 orbit2 libidl policykit gnutls libtasn1 nettle p11-kit desktop-file-utils libao nspr nss To report a bug, follow the instructions in the guide: http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets Error: Processing of port pidgin failed }}} Manually reinstalling cairo (and pango which fails next for the same reason) `sudo port install cairo +opengl+quartz pango +quartz` solves the issue. Can it be done automatically? P. S. Sorry if the bug is duplicate, searching on such an abstract topic is quite difficult. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/41131> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
