misc ports do not link against MacPorts X11 libs

[raphael@…]

The libbonoboui port uses the system X11 libraries instead of the MacPorts X11 libraries:

> otool -L /opt/local/lib/libbonoboui-2.0.0.0.dylib 
/opt/local/lib/libbonoboui-2.0.0.0.dylib:
	/opt/local/lib/libbonoboui-2.0.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0)
	/opt/local/lib/libgnomecanvas-2.0.dylib (compatibility version 2002.0.0, current version 2002.0.0)
	/opt/local/lib/libtiff.3.dylib (compatibility version 12.0.0, current version 12.2.0)
	/opt/local/lib/libjpeg.62.dylib (compatibility version 63.0.0, current version 63.0.0)
	/usr/X11/lib/libSM.6.dylib (compatibility version 7.0.0, current version 7.0.0)
	/usr/X11/lib/libX11.6.dylib (compatibility version 9.0.0, current version 9.0.0)
	/usr/X11/lib/libICE.6.dylib (compatibility version 10.0.0, current version 10.0.0)
	/usr/X11/lib/libXau.6.dylib (compatibility version 7.0.0, current version 7.0.0)
	/usr/X11/lib/libXdmcp.6.dylib (compatibility version 7.0.0, current version 7.0.0)
...

A rebuild does not help.

Thanks for reporting

It's linked against the MP libs here. I suspect it picks up the system ones from one or more of its dependencies.

Yes, I checked all direct dependencies before reporting this bug, but I forgot to check all indirect dependencies. Now, it works for me, too.

This ticket can be closed.

[jmroot (Joshua Root)]

Is there a ticket open for the indirect dependency that was using the system X11?

No, because this indirect dependency (I don't know which port it is.) uses the MacPorts X11 libs after a rebuild.

ok, so doing the 'sudo port -v upgrade outdated' solves the problem?

No, because the dependency was not outdated. I had to manually rebuild (port -f uninstall ... ; port clean --archive ... ; port install ...) all ports that have libraries in ${prefix}/lib that are linked against system X11 libs. The only port that still refuses to link with the MacPorts X11 libs is glut, see #18202.

Ok, then you need to tell me which dependency was outdated and needed to be uninstalled and then installed. That port needs a revision bump. A 'sudo port -v upgrade outdated' SHOULD fix all ports. If there is a port that isn't fixed but is fixed by uninstall, install... then it needs a revision bump to force that for others. Do you remember which ports were in that category?

Yes, that would be much better.

If there is a port that isn't fixed but is fixed by uninstall, install... then it needs a revision bump to force that for others. Do you remember which ports were in that category?

Those ports were:

gal
gimp2
libglade2
gtkmm
libgnomeui
librsvg
libbonoboui
pango
pangomm
libgdiplus
libgnomeprintui
libgnomecanvas
cairomm
giflib

For giflib there's already #18182. I have a similar MacPorts installation that I didn't upgrade yet. I'll test that after the ports above have been upgraded. I'll submit more tickets if I get any problems.
