Huge output like a main.log is best attached not pasted. I've converted your paste into an attachment.

Your log is not from a clean attempt. Please run "sudo port clean libstdcxx", then try again, and attach the new main.log if it fails again. If it is large you may want to compress it before attaching it.

I got a similar error on a 10.5.8 PPC using gcc4.0, see the few snipped lines below and my attachment main_gcc4.0.log

After specifying a newer compiler on my 10.5.8 PPC, other errors could be seen (see below and the attachment main_gcc45.log):

info:build checking for suffix of object files... configure: error: in `/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_lang_gcc47/libstdcxx/work/build/ppc-apple-darwin9/libgcc':

Well, guys, this defect at the moment is blocking all major updates requiring gcc45 on my system, since for some reason gcc45 relies on gcc47 now, whereas building of libstdcxx-4.7.2_2 (on my system without intervention gcc40 is taken for this, but forcing gcc42 or gcc45 does not help) unfortunately fails at the moment. I would be glad, if this "Bootstrap comparison failure" (no idea what this really means) could be verified by some others. Perhaps there is some work-around? Thanks!

Look at config.log (or provide it to us) for clues about what is going wrong.

Why are you using gcc-4.0 on Leopard? You should be using gcc-4.2 by default.

[udbraumann]

this config.log corresponds to the main.log of the gcc45 compiler run

Replying to jeremyhu@…:

Ok, I have uploaded the config.log as resulted from the gcc45 compiler run.

From config.log a series of problems of this type is visible: "xgcc: error: unrecognized command line option"

Why are you using gcc-4.0 on Leopard? You should be using gcc-4.2 by default.

Well, I always thought the portfile should define which compiler is required. After getting in trouble with gcc40 (selected without a certain specification), using the configure.compiler option I tried various compilers installed on my 10.5.8. PPC, including apple-gcc-4.2. If you find gcc-4.2. should the preset standard compiler (for macports, or in general?), please let me know how to define this.

Thanks so far, and perhaps someone can have a look on the config,log, I hope especially the unrecognized options -V and -qversion will give someone a clue what is going wrong here.

braumann, please open a new ticket for your issue as it is not related. Also, please attach the crash report.

You don't do anything to define this. It is the default set by base.

I now have opened a fork in Ticket #36981: libstdcxx fails building on a 10.5.8 PPC documenting the problems using mp-gcc45

gcc-4.0 is the default on Tiger and Leopard. gcc-4.2 is the default on Snow Leopard.

Thanks, for some presently unknown reason, now building libstdcxx works on my machine (as I already have reported in the forked Ticket #36981: libstdcxx fails building on a 10.5.8 PPC). In between the very first attempt building libstdcxx some weeks before (of course using the default gcc4.0), I only have made a disk maintenance plus have set gcc4.0 as default gcc using the select command of port. Anyway, now I no longer have these cc1-checksum.o-errors (see above). All other desperate attempts using e.g. gcc45 etc. (see above) seemingly have not been a good idea...

[jeremyhu (Jeremy Huddleston Sequoia)]

Ok, then closing as fixed.
