Hmmm that formatting is screwed up. Anyway the first error is:

options.c:23:18: error: popt.h: No such file or directory

Looks like maybe it needs a dependency on the popt port. Can you try installing popt, then cleaning and rebuilding hfsrsync? Using:

sudo port install popt
sudo port clean --work hfsrsync
sudo port install hfsrsync

If that works, hfsrsync needs to be updated.

[david@…]

popt is already installed.

I just fixed this by editing the file: /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_net_hfsrsync/work/rsync-2.5.5.hfs/options.c

And changing the line #include "popt.h" to #include "popt/popt.h"

Here are the relevant port versions:

port installed | grep -E 'popt|hfsrsync'
  hfsrsync @2.5.5_1 (active)
  popt @1.13_0 (active)

I don't get any problem installing hfsrsync @2.5.5_1 when popt is not installed. I do see problem building hfsrsync when popt @1.13_0 is installed.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

I see a configure option --with-included-popt to let hfsrsync "use bundled popt library, not from system". So it seems that hfsrsync requires popt in any case, but includes a copy it uses if the MacPorts one isn't installed.

Your fix of changing #include "popt.h" to #include "popt/popt.h" means that it will once again use its included popt instead of the MacPorts one, so that would be equivalent to using the --with-included-popt configure option.

I would be rather have hfsrsync use the popt port, so I fixed it to do this in r38704.

Thanks for the report!
