When trying to install gimp on a MacBook running MacOS 10.5.5 i get the following symbols not found error for gegl

I retried installing gegl after uninstalling openexr, but the error persisted.

I can't reproduce this on my machine (10.4.11 ppc) so you need to give me a bit more information. Please clean the gegl port and then rebuild in debug mode saving the output in a file. Then post the results here. This way, I can compare my output with yours and see where it is going wrong.

sudo port clean --all gegl
sudo port -d build gegl |& tee gegl_build.log

Or something similar.

Sorry for not replying sooner -- just got back from two weeks vacation :-)

As requested in comment 2

Thank you for your response.

I have carried out your instructions. It now won't even get to the error reported.I have attached the build log. If you need me to do something more, please tell.

[dbevans (David B. Evans)]

According to the log file, it built correctly this time with no errors. So now just run

sudo port install gegl

and it should install what you just built.

[pfo.mac@…]

Thank you: gegl is now installed.

I was expecting that using your instructions gegl should have been installed too. But a closer look at your instructions shows it was only built and not installed. Sorry that i did not see that the first time.

It remains a bit unsatisfying not to know what caused the errors in the first place. It has something to do with the order in which the MacPorts are built. However, I am glad i now can continue installing gimp. Thank you for your time and support.

[dbevans (David B. Evans)]

Great. Glad it is working for you.

There are some known problems on Leopard (​http://trac.macports.org/wiki/LeopardProblems) that are fixed by cleaning the port and then rebuilding so this is always something to try when things seem to unexpectedly fail.
