Why is -Wl,-all_load needed in the first place?

comment:3 Changed 12 years ago by zan@…

-all_load tells ld to pull all files from the static archives. Without it you get an empty dylib. The alternative is to use 'ar -x' to extract all *.o from *.a into a temp dir, build .dylib from *.o, then clean up the temp dir. I'll test it out.

I've updated the Portfile, diff file attached. Several updates:

  1. Newer version 4.0.0 -> 4.0.2
  2. use ar -x to extract *.o and then compile dylib from *.o
  3. metis is a depend_lib, not a depend_build, because it is linked dynamically.

There are still 2 old patch files in the files dir (UFconfig_UFconfig.mk-patch and makefiles.patch) that can be removed. They are not being used.

I presume we can rust-bucket this as a wontfix by this point :)

seems likely! maybe try to revisit if/once #47903 is dealt with?
