Leopard seems to dropped /dev/kmem. To get this working again, have to find out alternative to it.

[simmel@…]

Hey akira,

I patched protools to work on Leopard but you need the 10.4 SDK installed. I've made some error handling about that within in Portfile but please feel free to modify it.

[simmel@…]

Cc Me!

[akira@…]

Hi simmel,

Thanks for your patch. I'm not sure whether the dependency on 10.4 SDK is a good option for this... Can you make it work on Leopard without it?

[simmel@…]

Maybe if you hack the C-code, but I don't know C I'm afraid.

The reason why it's needed is because, if I understood it correctly, they removed /dev/kmem completely in Leopard.

While writing this message I started to hack at it, and I belive I can get it working, I will send in another diff for you to try.

[simmel@…]

Try that akira. It works for me(TM).

Hi Akira, patch the include in proctools.h (kvm.h remove it) and

#define USE_SYSCTL

a nicer way is:

#ifdef __APPLE__
#include AvailabilityMacros.h

Cheers!

Cool, much better patch than mine. To take it one step further, make -lkvm depend on USE_KVM too, but maybe that's not possible/very hard?

Anyway, good work!

yep I think that's possible, I only digg few minutes into proctools src, there are also some deprecated warnings from bsd.make, it's only a quick patch, anyway, it's perfectible using APPLE macro and the OS Version, no matter, :) THX

My last comment: proctools need a src maintainer, a request to the author should be the right answer.

Cheers!

[akira@…]

Thanks guys! I'll look into this.

[akira@…]

Committed in r36179. Thanks your the contribution! BTW, It would be nice to send these patches to upstream.

[bill.mill@…]

r36179 has nothing to do with this bug. I successfully compiled .4pre1 after I applied compile-leopard.patch, but the MacPorts installation still fails for me with the error in the initial report.

(errm, sorry, clean/selfupdate/install cycle and it worked like a charm. r36179 still has nothing to do with this bug though. Really sorry.)

[jmroot (Joshua Root)]

r37444 is what really fixed this.
