py24-readline and py25-readline: builds fail because /Developer/usr/bin/llvm-gcc-4.2 does not exist

py24-readline and py25-readline fail to build because /Developer/usr/bin/llvm-gcc-4.2 does not exist.

These built fine on all of the buildslaves:

• ​https://build.macports.org/builders/buildports-snowleopard-x86_64/builds/15599
• ​https://build.macports.org/builders/buildports-lion-x86_64/builds/9131
• ​https://build.macports.org/builders/buildports-mtln-x86_64/builds/2954

Please provide more information, including at least attaching your build log.

I attached the log. I just tried again with py25-readline, and the problem is the same:

:info:build unable to execute /Developer/usr/bin/llvm-gcc-4.2: No such file or directory

There is indeed no /Developer/usr/ on my machine (OS X 10.7.5, XCode 4.6).

[eric.lebigot@…]

This problem is fixed by manually adding a link to /usr in /Developer.

This looks like a hack to me, though.

The problem is that /Developer/usr/bin/llvm-gcc-4.2 does not exist on my machine (/Developer only contains Applications/). I guess that llvm-gcc-4.2 should simply not be looked for there, but instead be looked for in /usr/bin/.

Indeed, you should not have to do that (and should undo that).

The log you attached was not from a clean attempt. Please ​clean and try again.

Error log file

[eric.lebigot@…]

Good point. I cleaned the install and replaced the log file attached to this ticket. The error is the same: /Developer/usr does not exist.

Note that python 2.4 and 2.5 are deprecated and will be removed soon. After removal this ticket will be closed as wontfix.

The described problem might also be an individual issue, i.e. this ticket is invalid. I could imagine something like Xcode command line tools not installed correctly. But I have not experience with 10.7. I tried to build these, however on a OS X 10.8, and all looks good.

I was not able to reproduce this issue, the cited ports are now removed.
