Boost @1.4.8 +debug Build Error

[led@…]

Installing the Boost Library using Macports fails, due to an unrecognized command line option. In particular, I tried to install the boost library using the command:

sudo port install boost +debug

Macports fails to install the port and provides the error message:

Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command failed (see log for details)
Log for boost is at: /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_devel_boost/boost/main.log
Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.
To report a bug, see <http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets>

I'm using Mac OSX Lion 10.7.2 and XCode 4.2.1. The used compiler is LLVM-GCC-4.2.1

i686-apple-darwin11-llvm-gcc-4.2 (GCC) 4.2.1 (Based on Apple Inc. build 5658) (LLVM build 2336.1.00)
Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

From the logs: The cause of the error seems to be some unrecognized c++ options:

:info:build cc1plus: error: unrecognized command line option "-Wno-long-double"

:info:build cc1plus: error: unrecognized command line option "-fcoalesce-templates"

Is there an option to fix this bug?

Just as a side note: Trying to install the apple GCC42 as suggested in the hot topics also fails. From the logs:

I have the same issue, I've tried researching and fixing it for a while now, but can't seem to resolve it. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Just as an additional information. I just build the Boost library version 1.48 by hand using the sources from the boost website. I extracted the commands you used for the bootstrap.sh and the b2 install. Everything worked fine and boost compiled without any errors. Also the sources were copied in the right direction. As a results, I assume that the above mentioned issue is not caused by the Boost Library, but a failure in the macports script.

Thanks a lot for any help in advance.

Best,

Lars

Yep - bjam adds the wrong compiler options if a different sdkroot is selected. Fixed in r89555 (but keeps #33085 open).

This bug is back with the new boost169 port

[michaelld (Michael Dickens)]

@cooljeanius : can you then check to see if there's an issue open for the 'boost169' port & if not then create a new one. This one is ancient & closed. If you do open one, please note this ticket in the new one, for reference.
