And here's some log output that shows the error:

You did not include the source of the error. Please ​clean, try again, and attach the complete main.log file.

% sudo port clean freerdp && sudo port install freerdp

[brian@…]

I've attached the complete main.log file. Thanks!

Hi, on Lion (10.7.5), Xcode 4.6.3 same problem. Log file looks exactly the same

On ML 10.8.4, Xcode 4.6.3 (Build 4H1503) with same problem. Log file looks the same for me as well.

I'm on 10.7 as well but I cannot reproduce the issue, can you attach your build log?

Build log for FreeRDP on 10.8.4, Xcode 4.6.3 (Build 4H1503)

[pkutzner+macports@…]

I've rolled-back to the previous version of FreeRDP, as it's still working for me, until this bug is fixed.

However, I was wondering if there is a way to "hold" specific port versions so that running a "port upgrade outdated" will skip held versions? It's annoying having an 'update outdated' bail halfway through due to a build error and then having to manually go through each remaining package one-by-one to upgrade them. I haven't found a way to do so via the documentation. If this isn't a feature, it would definitely be a handy one to have.

You either skip that specific port (like I do in a temporary situation like this one) using conditions, e.g.:

port upgrade outdated and not name:FreeRDP

Or you ​create a local repository and copy there ​a portfile of the specific version you want to keep (that you already seem to know how to do). The local portfile will have precedence over the main ports' tree if done following point 2 at the previously linked chapter of the Guide.

I've found that I can deactivate FreeRDP, upgrade all outdated items, and then reactive FreeRDP:

sudo port deactivate FreeRDP

sudo port upgrade -c -u outdated

sudo port activate FreeRDP

I hope this helps.

I'm still experiencing the same issue on the latest version of the package. Build fails trying to compile libwinpr-crt.a I currently have 1.1.0-beta1_0 installed and working. I have a co-worker that just set up a new installation and was able to compile FreeRDP just fine. So, I'm not sure where the hang-up is here. I don't really want to rip out my installation and start over, but there's obviously something preventing it from compiling if you already have it installed.

[anddam (Andrea D'Amore)]

I can still not reproduce on Mavericks using Xcode 5.1, the port builds just fine.

The only difference I can see in both the attached logs compared to mine is that my log has a -I${prefix}/include flag more and a -O3 flag less in the line building winpr/libwinpr/handle/CMakeFiles/winpr-handle.dir/handle.c.o.

The port had a couple update since the ticket was last updated and since it builds on my system I'm closing this as worksforme, please reopen the ticket if you still get the error. When attaching the log remember to add build.jobs=1 to the port command as in

port clean FreeRDP
port install FreeRDP build.jobs=1

this makes easier tracking the error cause when reproducing.
