Why My Python MacPort Was Failing to Build Posted April 8, 2007
I ran into this issue hard last week when I tried to install the port for rdiff-backup using MacPorts. Rdiff-backup depends on python24, and when trying to build that port I was getting this error:
make: *** [Python/mactoolboxglue.o] Error 1
Ultimately, I was bitten by being space conscious when I installed XCode on this Mac: I hadn’t installed the Quicktime, CoreAudio, or OpenGL SDKs since I had no plans to use them. The python port, however, needs them.
I'm installing the missing parts right now and downloading the almost 1 Gb update in case it's not up to date. Should this be/is this a FAQ? -- Paul Beard words: http://paulbeard.org/wordpress pictures: http://www.flickr.com/photos/pdb206/ Are you trying to win an argument or solve a problem?
