upgrade gimp2 2.6.3_0 < 2.6.4_0 on MacOSX 10.5.6 fails

Reported by: q.qa.qaz.qazi@… Owned by: macports-tickets@…

Component: ports Version: 1.7.0
Keywords: upgrade, symbolic link, library, build Cc:
Port: gimp2

Description

The upgrade of gimp2 2.6.3_0 < 2.6.4_0 with darwinports fails because the build process of file-uri fails due to two wrong named library versions:

libXrandr.2.0.0.dylib and libXdamage.1.0.0.dylib are needed but not found. libXrandr.2.1.0 and libXdamage.1.1.0 are actually installed (on my MacOSX 10.5.6 System).

workaround: Creating two adequate symbolic links from libXdamage.1.dylib and libXrandr.2.dylib fixes this problem:

cd /usr/X11/lib sudo ln -s libXdamage.1.dylib libXdamage.1.0.0.dylib sudo ln -s libXrandr.2.dylib libXrandr.2.0.0.dylib

Kind regards,

qazi

The problem is with the .la files that ship with Leopard's X11. We can't really work around the problem in the ports. See LeopardProblems. Also note that there is no longer any such thing as DarwinPorts, it was renamed to MacPorts several years ago.
