CLucern fails to compile on MacOS 10.9 (Mavericks) with the following error:

Presumably you mean Xcode 5.0.1; I don't think 5.1 exists yet.

I am afraid it is not fixed yet. See the file clucene-main.log.tar.gz which is attached.

[egon.geerardyn@…]

It is not fixed here either. I get a similar log trace when trying to run the afflicted make, the following errors pop up:

I had the same problem. Note that the offending LuceneThreads.h comes from /opt/local/include, rather than the build directory, which contains the patched version included pthread.h.

cmake includes /opt/local/include for boost, but if an older version of CLucene is already installed in /opt/local, then these older headers are included. I manually solved the problem by telling ccmake not to include /opt/local/include, since it anyways builds against a copy of boost included in the clucene build. So I guess the solution is simply not to include /opt/local/include.

Could you describe how/where to do that? I'm not that accustomed to using cmake.

How could an older version of CLucene already be installed, since this bug report is about how it doesn't build?

I get the ":info:build /opt/local/include/CLucene/LuceneThreads.h:58:34: error: unknown type name 'pthread_t'" errors when doing 'port upgrade outdated'

and

'port installed clucene' gives:

The following ports are currently installed:
    clucene @2.3.3.4_0 (active)

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Sounds like you didn't follow migration instructions!

An easier solution (for those who did not follow the migration instructions): Type

sudo port uninstall -f clucene
sudo port install clucene

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Those who did not follow migration instructions should do so now.

Meanwhile I've worked around the problem in r112901.
