kdelibs3 fails to build on OSX 10.5 /w fresh install of macports & Xcode

[jrtomshine@…]

I'm attaching a log file that shows the particulars of the failure. I should note that I did take advantage of the ability to install Xcode in a non-default directory, if that makes any difference (it's in /Developer/Xcode rather than /Developer).

I should also note that Xcode is version 3.0, although errors that macports produces seem to indicate that it believes I'm using a much older version.

The last error kind of offers a solution, try running:

sudo ln -s /usr/X11/lib/libXrandr.2.dylib /usr/X11/lib/libXrandr.2.0.0.dylib

and rebuilding

This appears to work -- thanks! I now have kstars running, which was my final goal. I'm actually surprised that it was so simple, given all the other errors that were being thrown by macports -- things this fix couldn't have addressed & must still be present.

MacPorts was not producing an error message; rather, the kdelibs3 software was for some reason printing out the entire contents of a script -- a script which apparently can produce an error message about Xcode version, but it did not do so in your case because you have a recent enough Xcode.

I really didn't see any other errors being shown in your output, other than the one about libXrandr.2.0.0.dylib not being found -- which is a curious problem since libXrandr.2.0.0.dylib should be there, and is there on my Mac OS X 10.5.4 system with Apple X11 on Intel. How did you install your X11 system? Did you use Apple X11 as provided with Mac OS X, or did you maybe install XQuartz?
