grep 2.5.3_0 won't install; 2.5.1a_1 worked fine

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

grep 2.5.3_0 won't install. Here's what I get with MacPorts 1.6.0-rc1 on Mac OS X 10.4.10 with Xcode 2.4.1 on a macbookpro3,1:

Here are the versions of grep's dependencies I have installed:

$ port installed pcre gettext libiconv expat
The following ports are currently installed:
  pcre @7.4_0+universal (active)
  gettext @0.17_1+universal (active)
  libiconv @1.12_0+darwin_8+universal (active)
  expat @2.0.1_0+examples+universal (active)
$

If I backdate the grep port to r24969, grep 2.5.1a_1 installs just fine.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Even grep 2.5.1a_1+nls installs ok.

[waqar@…]

I tested on leopard, i will check on Tiger and make sure that it works.

[spovich@…]

Waqar,

please add me as to cc list on this since #13206 has been closed. Unless I'm blind, this trac setup here doesn't allow regular folks to add cc's.

Thanks!

[waqar@…]

If you have an account then you can add yourself. At the very top there is a button for Register.

[spovich@…]

Replying to ryandesign@macports.org: Yea, I have already registered. You can't reply to a ticket without being logged in. It is probably different permissions or regular users vs committers. For me, the whole top section of the ticket view is not editable, the only option available for a ticket is to post comments like this ;-)

It also looks like once you post a comment, you get cc'd on future updates to the ticket even if you aren't on the cc list.

Anyway, thanks!

[waqar@…]

Well i just built it on Tiger, and it built fine for me. I am running 1.5.2 version of MacPorts, maybe that works fine, and 1.6 does not?

Duh, Never mind it is an install issue not a build issue.

Yes, it's a different set of permission for project members, they are naturally allowed to tweak more ticket details than those solely holding trac accounts. We're working on a new setup to allow some aspects of a ticket to be editable by just anyone with any type of account, like the Cc field, working our way up from there in a more fine-grained fashion to full ticket modification privileges depending on who you are and your affiliation to your project... but we aint there just yet ;-) Such a system is still in the cooking, sorry about that!

It also looks like once you post a comment, you get cc'd on future updates to the ticket even if you aren't on the cc list.

Please don't count on that behavior, it may likely change in the future to only those on the Cc field (plus reported and assignee, of course) being notified of ticket updates.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Olivier Croquette also ​reported this problem on macports-users. His email also includes a workaround; perhaps the port could employ this workaround until the developers release a fixed version?

[ocroquette (Olivier Croquette)]

Just to complete my report, I am using:

• gcc version 4.0.1
• autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.59
• automake (GNU automake) 1.6.3

Version of grep compiled:

• GNU grep 2.5.3

The problem is at:

/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_sysutils_grep/work/grep-2.5.3/po

There is this strange part:

MKDIR_P = .././install-sh -c -d
mkdir_p = $(top_builddir)/./install-sh -c -d 

If I replace it with:

MKDIR_P = .././install-sh -c -d
mkdir_p = .././install-sh -c -d

and then resume the port install, it installs correctly.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Here's the ​upstream bug report for this issue.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

No response from maintainer in > 72 hours so I committed a fix for this in r37524.
