qt4-mac Configure error : syntax error in expression "${MINOR} == "6" ...

[hosseini@…]

I tried to install qt4 using macports but I faced problem installing it. I get the following error:

Error: Target org.macports.configure returned: syntax error in expression "${MINOR} == "6" &&
                  [llength ${qt_arch_type...": extra tokens at end of expression

I would appreciate if someone could help me with this problem

I could install qt4-mac .

Thanks.

After

sudo port clean qt4-mac
sudo port selfupdate
sudo port install qt4-mac

I'm still unable to install on 10.4.11, PPC G5. Error log is attached, but looks as though configure is failing due to a shell command failure.

Thanks.

sudo port clean qt4-mac

sudo port install qt4-mac

I'm still unable to install on 10.4.11, PPC G5. Error log is attached, but looks as though configure is failing due to a shell command failure.

I manually change the qt4-mac/Portfile which in my case is in the following directory: /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/ports/aqua/qt4-mac/

I then apply the change manually: r87163

I then uninstall and reinstall again:

sudo port uninstall qt4-mac
sudo port install qt4-mac

[wh18@…]

Unfortunately, following :

sudo port selfupdate
sudo port clean qt4-mac
sudo port install qt4-mac

I find this change r87163 is already made in the new portfile, but the error detailed in the above build log still occurs. Looks as though this is related to lots of the following in the log:

Something... something... expected to be defined in /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib

Thanks.

This ticket is about the error message "syntax error in expression "${MINOR} == "6" && [llength ${qt_arch_type...": extra tokens at end of expression" which I fixed in r87163. This ticket is therefore resolved and closed.

wh18, you are now experiencing a different error. Please open a new ticket for that.

Hi, qt4-mac is now building fine on 10.4.11 PPC G5.

The further problem I had was un-related to MacPorts, and was resolved with an update of X-code to version 2.5.

Thanks for your help getting qt4-mac working again.

Thanks for letting us know. I changed the port in r87272 to require Xcode 2.5 on Tiger.
