p5.12-pdl: Cannot compile test program: #include <plplot.h>
Reported by: | bs@… | Owned by: | tim@… |

Priority: | Normal | Milestone: | |
Component: | ports | Version: | 2.1.3 |

Port: | p5-pdl |
Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))
Doing a "port install p5-pdl" on a fresh install of MacPorts 2.1.3 on Mac OS X v10.6.8 Snow Leopard fails. This seems not to be a duplicate of the PDL-related tickets I've found in the database. I've tried the various suggestions discussed in these tickets, however without success.
The full error message is:
:info:configure ERROR from evaluation of /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_perl_p5-pdl/p5.12-pdl/work/PDL-2.4.6/Graphics/Makefile.PL: ERROR from evaluation of /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_perl_p5-pdl/p5.12-pdl/work/PDL-2.4.6/Graphics/PLplot/Makefile.PL: Cannot compile test program: #include <plplot.h> :info:configure main () { printf ("%d", sizeof (PLFLT)); }
I don't understand this. The main.log file is attached. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Also what does port installed plplot*
return for you?

Replying to ryandesign@…:
What version of Xcode do you have?
"xcodebuild -version" tells me Xcode 4.2 Build version 4C199
I wonder if updating the port, as requested in #32031, would help.
I will comment on that.

The following ports are currently installed:
plplot @5.9.9_12+aquaterm+x11 (active)

Meanwhile I was successful installing the current version 2.4.11 of the PDL with MacPorts. However there were some issues to resolve:
(1) When doing a
port install perl5.12
a binary archive is downloaded and installed. The configuration files
/opt/local/lib/perl5/5.12.4/darwin-thread-multi-2level/Config.pm
/opt/local/lib/perl5/5.12.4/darwin-thread-multi-2level/Config_heavy.pl
/opt/local/lib/perl5/5.12.4/darwin-thread-multi-2level/CORE/config.h
installed in this way contain a wrong C compiler pathname in the $cc variable used by perl:
cc => '/usr/bin/gcc-4.2'
This is hard-coded and cannot simply be overridden with the CC shell variable or a configure.compiler option. However there is no /usr/bin/gcc-4.2 when Xcode 4.2 is installed. I guess this comes from a different version of Xcode. installing Perl 5.12 instead from source with
port -s install perl5.12
sets this variable to
cc => '/usr/bin/clang'
which works as long as Apple doesn't introduce yet another default C compiler :-)
(2) Also the current PDL is still incompatible with Proj v4.8. Instead, Proj v4.7 has to be installed.
(3) The PDL 2.4.11 requires another Perl module which does not (yet) have a Portfile, called Devel::CheckLib
I have created corresponding Portfiles for Proj 4.7, Devel::CheckLib 0.98, and PDL 2.4.11. Attached please find a TAR archive with these.
With kind regards, Burkhard.

Is this still a problem with version 2.7.0?

I did a "port install p5-pdl" on a clean MacPorts installation. This worked without problems, however with two differences to my original ticket:
(a) Lacking a Snow Leopard machine with Xcode 4.2, I did the installation under OS X v10.9 Mavericks with Xcode 5.1.1.
(b) The prefix "p5" meanwhile maps onto "p5.16", not onto "p5.12".
All three issues mentioned in #comment:5 are resolved in this way.
Best regards, Burkhard.
