How to specify a variant in 'depends_lib'
by susanmackay＠optusnet.com.au 25 Sep '07

25 Sep '07

I am trying to write a portfile for some software but I want to make sure that a particular variant of a dependency is installed. Is there some way that I can specify the variant within the portfile that I want to use? WOuld something like: depends_lib port:otherport+variantname work? (I'm away from the computer that is doing this at the moment so I can't experiment). If not, then I'll have to think of some other way of achieving my goal. Thanks Susan

Can't install anything in Interactive Mode
by Dylan Markow 24 Sep '07

If I try to install anything using interactive mode (e.g. first doing a "sudo port -v -d" and then once I'm at the console, typing "install curl"), I get the following error. However, if I do it all from the command line (e.g. "sudo port -d -v install curl") it works fine... alloc: invalid block: 0x3118a8: 0 0 8 Abort trap Full dump below: [~] $ sudo port -v -d MacPorts 1.520 Entering interactive mode...

Can't install gnome
by Matthias Brennwald 24 Sep '07

24 Sep '07

Dear all I tried to install gnome using macports on my G4-PowerBook running Mac OS X 10.4, but I was not successful (the result is attached below). I sent an email to bonzini(a)gnu.org (as indicated in the error log), who replied (i) that he is only responsible for gnu sed, not macports and (ii) that macports invokes sed the wrong way. Can anyone help or shed some light on this problem?

Installing MacPorts
by Jason Nerida 24 Sep '07

24 Sep '07

Hello, I'm new to MacPorts and have a question regarding install of MacPorts: How do I correct the PATH to point to the MacPorts path? I combined my .bash_login AND .bash_profile into .profile as instructed and also tried deleting them and leaving only .profile, but the PATH will not report the MacPorts path files: .bash_login: export PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:$PATH" .bash_profile: export PATH=/usr/local/mysql/bin:$PATH # Setting PATH for MacPython 2.5 # The orginal version is saved in .bash_profile.pysave PATH="/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/Current/bin:${PATH}" export PATH combined into .profile: ## # DELUXE-USR-LOCAL-BIN-INSERT # (do not remove this comment) ## echo $PATH | grep -q -s "/usr/local/bin" if [ $? -eq 1 ] ; then PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin export PATH fi # # Your previous .profile (if any) is saved as .profile.mpsaved # Setting the path for MacPorts. export PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:$PATH export DISPLAY=:0.0 export PATH=/usr/local/mysql/bin:$PATH # Setting PATH for MacPython 2.5 # The orginal version is saved in .bash_profile.pysave PATH="/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/Current/bin:${PATH}" export PATH export PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sb Thanks for any help with this, Jason

Glib2 build problem
by David DeHaven 24 Sep '07

24 Sep '07

Encountered a similar error trying to install glib2 on a system running Leopard (9A527): ld: bc out of range (571728 max is +/-64K) from _g_atomic_int_exchange_and_add in .libs/gatomic.o to _g_atomic_int_exchange_and_add$stub in .libs/ libglib-2.0.0.1400.0.dylib in _g_atomic_int_exchange_and_add from .libs/gatomic.o There's a bc instruction (or variant thereof, probably the "bne-") that's trying to jump further than 64K bytes from the PC, that's causing the linker error. This would have affected PowerPC builds only. I poked around a short while and couldn't figure out what's causing the error. It could be a bug in the Leopard preview build of ld64... I did notice the other functions in gatomic.c didn't have that problem, but they all have a sync instruction before the label, so I dropped a nop in front of the label in g_atomic_int_exchange_and_add (and then later g_atomic_int_add): __asm__ __volatile__ ("nop\n" ".Lieaa%=: lwarx %0,0,%3\n" Which compiles to: .align 2 .p2align 4,,15 .globl _g_atomic_int_exchange_and_add _g_atomic_int_exchange_and_add: nop .Lieaa17: lwarx r2,0,r3 add r0,r2,r4 stwcx. r0,0,r3 bne- .Lieaa17 mr r3,r2 blr And things are building fine now, though wholly untested. Note the only difference in the assembly output is the nop between the global and the local label (and the tab before the .Lieaa17 label, which doesn't make any difference): _g_atomic_int_exchange_and_add: .Lieaa17: lwarx r2,0,r3 Otherwise they're the same. This really looks to me like a bug in ld64. Here's a patch: --- old/glib-2.14.0/glib/gatomic.c 2007-09-21 15:32:52.000000000 -0700 +++ new/glib-2.14.0/glib/gatomic.c 2007-09-21 15:32:33.000000000 -0700 @@ -276,7 +276,8 @@ g_atomic_int_exchange_and_add (volatile gint val) { gint result, temp; - __asm__ __volatile__ (".Lieaa%=: lwarx %0,0,%3\n" + __asm__ __volatile__ ("nop\n" + ".Lieaa%=: lwarx %0,0,%3\n" " add %1,%0,%4\n" " stwcx. %1,0,%3\n" " bne- .Lieaa%=" @@ -292,7 +293,8 @@ g_atomic_int_add (volatile gint *atomic, gint val) { gint result, temp; - __asm__ __volatile__ (".Lia%=: lwarx %0,0,%3\n" + __asm__ __volatile__ ("nop\n" + ".Lia%=: lwarx %0,0,%3\n" " add %1,%0,%4\n" " stwcx. %1,0,%3\n" " bne- .Lia%="

Activate never completes

The last few installs that I have attempted have hung during the activate phase ... I have terminated the processes and tried an explicit activate command, but that hangs, too. Now I have a number of intalled-but-inactive ports hanging around.

Apple does not distribute anything in /usr/local, so everything you see there was added by you, or by 3rd-party software you installed. I do not know why it's there or what you've got that requires it. I suspect that the MacPorts install is getting confused by something in /usr/local, or by something in /sw, if /sw is in your $PATH. As I said, try moving /usr/local aside (sudo mv /usr/local /usr/local-off) and see if that helps your MacPorts port install. If not, try moving / sw aside (sudo mv /sw /sw-off) and try again. Assuming that works, figure out what you have installed in /sw and /usr/local and reinstall it using MacPorts. Then get rid of those other directories (after saving any data and config files of course) because their presence will just continue to confuse MacPorts software if you don't. Don't forget to use the Reply To All function of your email program when you reply, so that your reply goes to the list too, and not just to me.
