#15057 closed defect (fixed)

gv binary is not installed by gv 3.6.3_0 port

Reported by: bernstei Owned by: ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 1.6.0
Keywords: Cc: jmroot (Joshua Root)
Port: gv

Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))

On a 10.4.11 G5 with MacPort 1.6.0, doing a "port install gv" appears to work fine, but it creates a file

   /opt/local/bin/gv

that is not an executable. In fact, it seems to be a copy of /opt/local/lib/gv/GV:

  [bernstei@cstd-beta /]$ diff /opt/local/lib/gv/GV  /opt/local/bin/gv 
  [bernstei@cstd-beta /]$ 

I've attached the file.

I can't reproduce this on Leopard/x86. Could you please attach a debug-mode log of gv 's build and install process? You can make one with sudo port -d install gv > gv.log 2>&1. (You'll need to uninstall gv first, of course. Please also make sure you've run port sync recently.)

It's magically fixed itself. I changed nothing, just uninstalled and reinstalled with -d, and it worked. Uninstalling and reinstalling (even without the -d) is working fine now. So I have no idea what was happening before.

This was an upstream problem. The install didn't work right on case-insensitive filesystems, like most Mac users have. /opt/local/lib/gv/GV and /opt/local/bin/gv always ended up being the same file, though whether you got the config file example or the binary varied. I worked around it in gv @3.6.5_1 in r38432, and upstream fixed it in 3.6.6.
