#38288 closed defect (fixed)

rust @0.5: requires additional dependencies

Reported by: larryv (Lawrence Velázquez) Owned by: g5pw (Aljaž Srebrnič)
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version:
Keywords: Cc: cooljeanius (Eric Gallager)
Port: rust

Description

Originally reported in #38279.

Rust apparently builds its own copy of LLVM or something, so it should have the corresponding dependencies. Ideally, we should be able to make it use an llvm-* port, but one step at a time.

It also seems to need build dependencies on Python and curl (although this one could be a bin dependency, since OS X comes with curl).

curl is needed to fetch the older snapshot. So, if #38285 is resolved, this goes away. As far as python goes, the usual MO is to add variants.

Just for a build-time choice? That doesn’t seem right to me. Unless something more than running some Python scripts is going on?

It is possible to use MacPorts llvm. I think I'll set variants for each llvm verson. From a quick glance it seems like larryv is right, python is just a runtime dependency. System python may be ok. Unfortunately I'm unable to test a lot of system versions, so I'll fix issues as they come up.

That’s quite an improvement, to say the least.

If you don’t want to test a bunch of system versions (a reasonable decision, for sure), you might just want to declare a build dependency on bin:python2.7:python27 and make sure the build programs use python2.7. Off the top of my head, I don’t know which OS versions come with which Python versions.

We use our LLVM now, see here. Still need to select the right python.

curl won't be needed as a dependency any more once r103872 gets merged from larryv's sandbox into trunk

As far as I can tell, Python is only required to build the bundled LLVM.

Fixed in r104052 (except for LLVM, see #38383).
