Can you attach the full main.log file please?

elvadrias' log compressed

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Thanks. That's a huge log... 23 MB... I've attached a compressed version of it and deleted the original. It's still not a complete log though: for all phases before destroot it just says "Skipping completed". Could you "sudo port clean mercury", then try again, then attach the new compressed main.log? I'm currently also trying the install on my system (Mountain Lion).

Previously (on Snow Leopard a year ago) I was able to compile mercury but it did not work; see #31300.

A new version of mercury is available. I'll try updating the port.

Note that you don't need to Cc yourself when you are the reporter.

I've attached my complete main.log; I get the same error as you.

The NEWS file for mercury 11.07.2 includes this change:

• Thread local storage now works on Mac OS X when using clang as the C compiler.

So I'm hopeful updating to that version will help.

incomplete patch

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

I'm attaching a patch to update the port to 11.07.2.

It seems upstream now supports DESTDIR which lets us simplify the port a lot and hopefully thereby fix #31300.

But destroot does not complete for me. It complains:

cp ./libatomic_ops-install/lib/libatomic_ops.a gc.a
cp: ./libatomic_ops-install/lib/libatomic_ops.a: No such file or directory

Any ideas?

Cc Me!

Is this still a problem with the current version (14.01.1)?

Should it use TLS-capable compiler for the bootstrap? This does not seem to be necessary, but who knows.
