perl5.8: library not found for -lutil (10.4 deployment target)

Reported by: anthony_oro@… Owned by: ghosthound
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 1.9.99
Keywords: Cc:
Port: perl5.8

Description

I am running OSX10.6 with latest MacPorts from SVN (1.9.99). I need to compile Universal PPC/i386 libraries for OSX 10.4 Target. So I set the following flags in macports.conf:

build_arch i386, universal_archs ppc i386, macosx_deployment_target 10.4

I managed to build a few libraries successfully (libpng, fltk...) But I get a configure error for Perl5.8, saying that -lutil cannot be found. I tried port clean, and also a complete port reinstall, neither worked. I cannot find which is this library that -lutil refers too.

(Note1: perl5.8 builds correctly if I remove macosx_deployment_target 10.4) (Note2: However, I DO NEED to build the libs for 10.4)

A bit of investigation revealed that /MacOSX10.4u.sdk/usr/lib/ does not contain libutil. On the other hand it is available in the 10.5 and 10.6 SDKs. Does anyone know what I could do to solve this problem?

Resolution: wontfix
Status: newclosed

Unless someone comes up with a fix and attaches a patch it seems unlikely this will be fixed. Note that we don't officially support changing the deployment target.
