[kde4-runtime] [version 1] [configure failure... failed to install]

[jonathan.nissenbaum@…]

I am trying to install kdenlive on a new computer (MacOS 10.9.2). I installed all the dependencies except for kde4-runtime, and continue to get the same error. The relevant part of the log file (as far as I am able to tell) is:

:info:configure Makefile:117: recipe for target 'cmTryCompileExec1604179063/fast' failed
:info:configure gmake: *** [cmTryCompileExec1604179063/fast] Error 2

:info:configure   plugins and linking of some applications.  Please fix your Qt installation
:info:configure   (try passing --reduce-exports to configure).

:info:configure   CMakeLists.txt:18 (find_package)
:info:configure 
:info:configure 
:info:configure -- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

I have seen other reports of this error but — and please forgive me! — I am not sure what steps to take in order to address this. If you could point me to the right direction I would be really grateful. If necessary I can attach the whole log file. -Jon

In the future, please use WikiFormatting and Cc the port maintainers (port info --maintainers kde4-runtime).

Please attach the main.log

Ok, here's the main.log

Just curious to know whether you got the attachment and were able to find anything useful in it. I really appreciate your help! -Jon

Update: I did manage to install kde4-runtime (I'll describe the steps below). BUT... Now that I have all the dependencies installed for kdenlive, I tried installing kdenlive itself and have run into the very same problem. Again, the relevant portion of the main.log seems to be the following:

:info:configure gmake[1]: Leaving directory '/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_multimedia_kdenlive/kdenlive/work/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeTmp'

:info:configure 
:info:configure -- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

I'm attaching the main.log to this.

The steps I took that ended up with a successful installation of kde4-runtime were:

sudo port clean kde4-runtime
sudo port clean --all installed
sudo port -d selfupdate
sudo port -u upgrade outdated
sudo port install kdenlive

At which point, instead of getting the usual uninformative "command execution failed", I got an instruction to use

sudo port -f activate kde4-runtime

...which did the trick. The same (corresponding) sequence of steps did not work for installing kdenlive itself.

The issues you are encountering seem to be related to #41321, although one slight difference is that you report the error for Macports 2.2.1, which did not seem to have problems. I'll mark this ticket as duplicate, as the patches in the mentioned ticket should solve the issue.

[jonathan.nissenbaum@…]

Ok thanks for this. But I am not sure what exactly I should do. Should I paste the code from your patch directly into terminal? At what point / how do I apply it? Very sorry but I’m pretty ignorant about this.

-Jon

[NicosPavlov]

You can apply the patch before installing kde4-runtime. The command to apply the patch from the Terminal should be

sudo patch ${prefix}/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs/ports/_resources/port1.0/group/cmake-1.0.tcl < ${path_to_patch}

where ${prefix} is the macports prefix (/opt/local for a standard installation) and ${patch_to_patch} is the absolute path to the patch.

Please note however that this is partly a workaround, as any call to selfupdate will revert your change, as long as the patch has not been committed. It will nevertheless stay as long as you don't run it, in case you have several kde ports to install.
