Description (last modified by mf2k (Frank Schima))
Hi- xfig is not installing. I need this as it is a dependency for another program I want to use. I am using Mac OS X 10.7.3, intel processors. Thanks!

| Summary: | Error: Failed to install xfig → xfig: configure fails with clang: error: empty character constant |
The log is incomplete; running "sudo port clean xfig" and trying again would generate a complete log.
But it looks like the same imake/xmkmf problem we've seen in several other ports with clang (see e.g. #33165 and #31504):
/opt/local/lib/X11/config/Imake.rules:1674:27: error: empty character constant
This has been fixed in MacPorts base. I'll see if I can get the fix included in MacPorts 2.0.5, whenever that's released.

So I assume i installed 2.0.4; is this not MacPorts 'base'? If so what version do I have to install to have the clang issue fixed? thanks.

"base" means the core MacPorts software, as distinct from the individual portfiles; I meant this is not a problem specific to the xfig port. A version of MacPorts containing the fixed base code has not yet been released; I am hoping to include this fix in 2.0.5.

According to comment:ticket:33165:14 I was mistaken, and the problem I was referring to was in fact already fixed in MacPorts 2.0.4. All that remains is to apply a small change to the xfig port, which I've done in r90711, per the advice in comment:ticket:33165:16. Please wait 30 minutes, then "sudo port selfupdate", "sudo port clean xfig", and try again. Does that work?
Please attach the log mentioned so we can see what the problem is.
