gnustep-gui compiling error - build failure

[bubble_dancer@…]

I've tried to build GWorkspace. But, when building gnustep-gui, gcc-mp-4.2 says, "I cannot recognize option '-weak_framework'.". My system is, PowerBook G4 and MacOS X 10.5 Leopard(fresh install).

$ sudo port install gnustep

same problema, after having followed the information for fresh installation at ​http://www.zathras.de/angelweb/x2004-10-30.htm

[pb.bwfoto@…]

Same problem here also. Fresh macports installation on leopard. 10.5.2 GNUStep ports are a little outdated too. (Is maintaining ports difficult? What skills do I need to have, I want to fix these)

@pb.bwfoto - It's not that hard to be a maintainer. You can use other ports as a guide. Here's the wiki page on it: ​http://guide.macports.org/#reference

You can edit a port like this:

sudo edit port gnustep

Sorry for the very late reply on this.

I got around this by modifying /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_gnustep_gnustep-gui/work/gnustep-gui-0.12.0/config.make

and removing the string

"-weak_framework Kerberos"

I am on Leopard, and perhaps there are no longer weak links to the Kerberos framework?

I found this code in reference to this switch: ​http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/10.5.1/cups-136/cups/config-scripts/cups-gssapi.m4

Cc Me!

[tobypeterson]

Same as #16922 ... why are you using MacPorts gcc?

[tobypeterson]

Oh, gnustep portgroup.. blah
