#38068 closed defect

emacs-app error build fail maybe due to missing dependencies — at Version 1

Reported by: mariouka@… Owned by: hum@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.1.3
Keywords: Cc:
Port: emacs-app

Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))

I tried installing emacs-app through macports and it fails to build. I'm on mac os x 10.5.8 and I have xcode 3.1.4

Error: org.macports.build for port emacs-mac-app returned: command execution failed
Please see the log file for port emacs-mac-app for details: 

Error: Processing of port emacs-mac-app failed

I attach the log file, which indicates that some dependencies were not found (e.g. libxml).

However, note that I also tried installing emacs from the binary downloaded from emacsformac.com and it also failed to build. So there might be some problem with my system rather than with the port.

If you downloaded a binary of emacs from elsewhere, then there is no build that could fail (a binary is already built; that is what "binary" means). But we're here to talk about MacPorts, not random third-party binaries, so let's address that problem.

The log you attached is incomplete. Please clean and try again. Then we can investigate further.
