Fetchmail doesn't compile

[canela@…]

I'm having problems compiling fetchmail +ssl, after a sudo port install fetchmail +ssl an error is rosen:

---

---> Fetching fetchmail

---> Verifying checksum(s) for fetchmail

---> Extracting fetchmail

---> Applying patches to fetchmail

Error: Target com.apple.patch returned: shell command "aclocal -I /opt/local/share/aclocal" returned error 1

Command output: aclocal: macro `AM_PROG_MKDIR_P' required but not defined

aclocal: macro `AM_PROG_MKDIR_P' required but not defined

Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.

man aclocal doesn't exist on my system and I don't know how i could help.

Hi, Here's a tentative Portfile that:

1. brings the port up-to-date
2. switches to berlios mirrors (I should update the mirrors file actually)
3. removes some extraneous stuff that got patched upstream
4. adds a dep on py-tkinter for fetchmailconf
5. changes the hashes to sha1 and ripemd160

Please let me know if it works for you (it does for me), I'll commit it then.

I also added myself as maintainer. Should anyone want to step up, feel free to do so.

I also removed the dep on DarwinPortsStartup, still hesitating if it should be a variant, or should be re-added. What is your opinion on that?

[canela@…]

I don't have enough knowledge to say if it should or it shouldn't depend on DarwinPortsStartup, but it works for me with this new portfile.

I'll vote to made python a variant, since someone could live without it and without fetchmailconf.

[pmq@…]

OK committed. I'll add python as a variant as soon as I get to it. Thanks for the feedback!
