root-5.34.17 would not build with +fftw3

[anna.soter@…]

""Similar problem to closed ticket"" #32383.

root-5.34.17 (built with defaults, root-5.34.17_0+cocoa+gcc48+graphviz+gsl+minuit2+opengl+roofit+soversion+ssl+tmva+xml ) fails during runtime when tries to access some missing libraries:

Error in <TMacOSXSystem::DynamicPathName>: FFTW[.so | .dll | .dylib | .sl | .dl | .a] does not exist in .:/opt/local/lib/root::/opt/local/lib/root/cint/cint/stl

It seems the fftw3 libraries relevant to root are missing, at least this error occurs for others for this reason. It seems the port should get them by default, but in any case I tried to enforce them with +fftw3 during install. The port is successfully fetched and configured, but fails during build.

I would be very happy for any input on this, I badly need root with FFT for my work. Thank you for your time in advance! Some lines from the end of the log file when installing root-5.34.17_0+cocoa+fftw3+gcc48+graphviz+gsl+minuit2+opengl+roofit+soversion+ssl+tmva+xml

In the future, please Cc the port maintainers (port info --maintainers root).

Is this still an issue with version 5.34.18? It looks exactly like a side effect of upgrading to the new Xcode. An issue that has been fixed in latest ROOT.

See ​https://github.com/root-mirror/root/commit/4da8475ff345d6c34c6537f2bcaf8cd56741199e

In case I'm wrong, please reply or reopen the ticket.

I agree, this very much looks like an issue in 5.34.17 with the latest Xcode, which should be fixed in the latest update. Please make sure your ports are up to date, and report back.

cheers Chris

Thank you guys, 5.34.18 behaves well, and all libraries are in place again :) I did not notice the upgrade, sorry for the complaint! cheers, Anna
