HandBrake @0.9.5: error: Carbon.h: No such file or directory

[ross@…]

I am getting an error when trying build HandBrake on OS X Lion 10.7.4, XCode 4.3.2. Error is below and main.log is attached.

The log says:

audio_out.c:172:20: error: Carbon.h: No such file or directory

So I guess this uses Carbon, which is an old API, but which should still be available in Lion. Are you sure your Xcode is installed properly, including separately installing the command line tools from within the Xcode app?

Also, it looks like HandBrake 0.9.6 was released in February, so it might be worthwhile for someone to try to update the port to that version.

Ah, now that you pointed out the error, I was able to see that the compiler is looking in the wrong place for FlatCarbon:

:info:build /opt/local/bin/gcc-apple-4.2 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../src -I./..
/src -fpascal-strings -I/Developer/Headers/FlatCarbon  -arch x86_64 -I/opt/local
/include   -arch x86_64 -std=gnu99 -W -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes  
-Waggregate-return -Wcast-align -Wcast-qual -Wnested-externs -Wshadow -Wpointer-
arith -pipe -c audio_out.c

But /Developer/Headers/FlatCarbon does not exist; the correct path to the Developer dir is:

# xcode-select -print-path
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer

I tried adjusting configure.cflags-append in the Portfile but that did not work.

However, the following hack did work:

sudo ln -s /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer /Developer

Has duplicate #35602.

Tried to do the same and create the mentioned link, but didn't work. Suppose because I have ML installed. The link may work under Lion. In ML the path to the headers is: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.7.sdk/Developer/Headers and the path to Carbon.h is: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.7.sdk/Developer/Headers/FlatCarbon/Carbon.h

My error was maybe a duplicate regarding the error message, but the solution may differ between Lion and Mountain Lion installation. I don't have Lion installation anymore to reflect that.
