Tk fails to build

[issac.trotts@…]

This is on Snow Leopard, on a MacBook Pro. Xcode is version 3.2, 64 bit.

Here is the output.

All right, the output is attached.

Do you have the xorg-libX11 port installed? Run

port installed xorg-libX11

[issac.trotts@…]

Yes:

$ port installed xorg-libX11 The following ports are currently installed:

xorg-libX11 @1.2.2_0 (active)

Hi all, I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to MacPorts -- if only because I've had good luck getting what I needed to compile. In any case, I am experiencing the same problem. Some minimal detail about my setup:

$ port installed xorg-libX11 
The following ports are currently installed:
  xorg-libX11 @1.2.2_0
  xorg-libX11 @1.3_0 (active)

This situation does not exist on all hosts; I was able to build tk on another 10.6 system.

The problem seems to be that on some systems, the include path for X11 libraries is not correctly calculated. I was able to get tk to build with minor manual changes to the Makefile, but this fix is not suitable for a patch because it really just fixes the symptoms of the problem. In any case, here is what I did, under /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_x11_tk/work/tk8.5.7/unix:

• copy Makefile to Makefile.auto
  

• set the include path to /opt/local/include (my X11 includes live under there)
  

• run this diff:

diff -u Makefile.auto Makefile

After taking another look, I believe that the +quartz variant of tk doesn't build properly on Snow Leopard.

This ticket does not involve +quartz, you're probably looking for #20799.

Patch works great for me on snow leopard 10.6.2, Xcode ver 3.2.1. Let me know if I can provide other information about my system to help you guys figure out when the X11 includes/libs are relocated.

Replying to pkrohn@…: Worked for me as well, thanks, though I edited Makefile rather than creating Makefile.auto.

[jmroot (Joshua Root)]

Can't reproduce. May be OK with 1.9 in any case because it sets CPATH.
