kdebase3: error: /opt/local/bin/xmkmf (imake) failed

[batshua@…]

I'm trying to build kdegames3, but first I need kdebase3 to build successfully.

I'm running Lion 10.7.3, and I'm using Xcode 4.3.2.

The Terminal outputs thus:

Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command failed (see log for details)
Error: Failed to install kdebase3
Log for kdebase3 is at: /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_kde_kdebase3/kdebase3/main.log
Error: The following dependencies were not installed: kdebase3
Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.

As best I can tell, the only error in the log is here:

:info:build Warning: the following items did not execute (for kdebase3): org.macports.activate org.macports.build org.macports.destroot org.macports.install
:error:build Failed to install kdebase3
:debug:build couldn't open "/System/Library/Frameworks/Tcl.framework/Versions/8.5/Resources/tclIndex": no such file or directory
    while executing
"open [file join $dir tclIndex]"

I'm attaching the entire log anyway in case it has more enlightening information I didn't catch.

Log of failure in question.

The relevant error seems to be:

error: /opt/local/bin/xmkmf (imake) failed

I wonder why xmkmf failed. Is there a config.log you can attach that might contain more details?

Replying to ryandesign@…:

Sure, if you can tell me where to look for the logfile, I can hunt it down and attach it, provided, of course, that it exists.

Did the recent changed to xorg-cf-files and imake help with this?

Actually, what I eventually ended up doing was completely deleting MacPorts and starting from scratch. Then it was fine. Go figure.
