atk fails to build because of broken GLIB

[martijn@…]

I am unable to install py25-gtk due to a broken GLIB. Cleaning up and even a complete fresh install of MacPorts did not cure it.

 sudo port install py25-gtk

What version of glib2 do you have installed? glib2-2.20.0_0 is the lastest version.

According to the error you quoted the error is coming from the atk build, have you checked config.log, as the error suggests? (It'll be in port dir atk/work/)

[martijn@…]

$ port installed glib2 The following ports are currently installed: glib2 @2.20.0_0+universal (active)

[martijn@…]

Sorry but I cannot find the config.log. What would be the full path with a default install?

[martijn@…]

config.log atk build error

[jmroot (Joshua Root)]

The config.log indicates a syntax error in glib2's glibconfig.h. What version of Xcode do you have?

[martijn@…]

3.1.2 which is the latest version.

For what combination of universal architectures was your glib2 built?

I have absolutely no idea... how can I check this?

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

This command should tell you:

Any news? This bug halts the development of an application completely so I am kind of eager to see it get fixed. Thanks in advance!

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Could you attach your /opt/local/lib/glib-2.0/include/glibconfig.h to this ticket so I can compare it with mine?

[martijn@…]

Added requested file.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Thanks. Now that I've tried on PowerPC Leopard, that's the same thing I get. But it's different than what I get on Intel Leopard.

On PowerPC Leopard, the resulting glibconfig.h file has #if directives inserted in the middle of a statement which was continued from the previous line with a backslash, which isn't syntactically valid. Unfortunately the muniversal merger has no way of knowing this. The port already told the muniversal merger not to try to merge that file if there are more than 2 universal architectures. I've now simplified this in r51009 to never try to merge that file.

[martijn@…]

Still get the error. Thanks.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

You will need to sync, upgrade glib2 to 2.20.1_1, then clean out any previous attempts to build any of the failing ports (such as atk and gtk-doc) before this will work. So:

sudo port sync
sudo port upgrade glib2
sudo port clean atk gtk-doc

Then try again.

[martijn@…]

Confirmed... Thanks!
