| Summary: | vxl fails to compile → vxl: error: invalid use of incomplete type ‘struct png_info_def’ |
Your incomplete log says:
core/vil/file_formats/vil_png.cxx:192: error: invalid use of incomplete type ‘struct png_info_def’
This looks like upstream bug report 71 about incompatibility with libpng 1.5. This is strange because MacPorts has libpng 1.4, not 1.5, at least until we address #28385. Can you explain? Do you have a copy of libpng 1.5 on your system somewhere, perhaps in /usr/local? If you clean and try again and attach the new complete main.log it might provide more clues.

There's no mystery, the log clearly shows that the declaration comes from /Library/Frameworks/UnixImageIO.framework/Headers/png.h. A complete log would still be nice of course.

There's no mystery, the log clearly shows that the declaration comes from
/Library/Frameworks/UnixImageIO.framework/Headers/png.h.
In that case, this was report was invalid; we don't support users installing third-party frameworks into /Library/Frameworks.
A complete log would still be nice of course.
Now that MacPorts has actually updated to libpng 1.5, a couple users have reported this problem again, and attached complete logs. See #36320.
