Description

OS: OS X 10.9.2

I have already installed xorg-server@1.14.4_0 before sudo port upgrade outdated

The main information I saw in the log file:

:info:configure configure.ac:36: error: must install xorg-macros 1.14 or later before running autoconf/autogen

But I saw that xorg-util-macros is in the dependency list, no xorg-macros:

Thanks.

And, for the maintainers: I have to manually install autoconf for autoreconf not found error before this issue. Maybe the dependency checking was unstable, I guess?

comment:3 Changed 11 years ago by cooljeanius (Eric Gallager)

But I saw that xorg-util-macros is in the dependency list, no xorg-macros

That is just a different name for the same package. What version of xorg-util-macros do you have installed? Mine is:

$ port installed xorg-util-macros
The following ports are currently installed:
  xorg-util-macros @1.17.1_0
  xorg-util-macros @1.19.0_0 (active)

btw xorg-server configured successfully for me; I will attach my own log for comparison...

Thanks. But I think the successful log is not useful for me. The real problem maybe was revealed by comment:2. Macports didn't install the dependencies for xorg-server, that's so weird.

And now I have tried to manually install xorg-util-macros, and manually install xorg-font-util, finally I met another failure:

63 :info:configure configure.ac:678: error: possibly undefined macro: XTRANS_CONNECTION_FLAGS
64 :info:configure       If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
65 :info:configure       See the Autoconf documentation.

log file will be attached soon. (Well, maybe I need to manually install all dependencies...)

comment:5 in reply to:  description Changed 11 years ago by iology (J.W)

Well, I have tried to manually install all missing dependencies of xorg-server,

~ sudo port upgrade $(port echo depof:xorg-server)
Error: xorg-bigreqsproto is not installed
Error: xorg-resourceproto is not installed
Error: xorg-scrnsaverproto is not installed
Error: xorg-xcmiscproto is not installed
Error: xorg-xtrans is not installed
~ sudo port install xorg-util-macros xorg-font-util xorg-bigreqsproto xorg-resourceproto xorg-scrnsaverproto xorg-xcmisproto xorg-xtrans
~ sudo port upgrade outdated

and it was so successful when upgrading xorg-server. :-)

Then I uninstalled the new one and dependencies I manually installed, and re-upgrade the old one. Although it was successful again, but I found that some dependencies were not installed at all! Maybe MacPorts has gone mad on my computer? I don't want to reinstall MacPorts. That's painful. I hope this is just a problem related to xorg-server port.

What do you mean you "manually installed, and re-upgrade the old one"

As this has nothing to do with xorg-server but rather missing dependencies, I'm moving to base.

Replying to jeremyhu@…:

What do you mean you "manually installed, and re-upgrade the old one"

As this has nothing to do with xorg-server but rather missing dependencies, I'm moving to base.

Let me describe the whole process from the start.

  1. I had already installed xorg-server@1.14.4_0 which has been upgraded successfully several times.
  2. After port selfupdate, I ran port upgrade outdated as normal.
  3. Configure error about autoreconf occurred, I manually installed automake, autoconf, libtool by port install automake autoconf libtool to solve the problem.
  4. Then configure errors about all other missing dependencies xorg-util-macros, xorg-font-util, xorg-bigreqsproto, xorg-resourceproto, xorg-scrnsaverproto, xorg-xcmisproto, xorg-xtrans occurred. I solved it with the same method stated before.
  5. Finally, xorg-server was successfully installed.

After that, I uninstalled xorg-server and all the dependencies except libtool, and tryied to reinstall again. This time, both port upgrade outdated and port install xorg-server did calculate the dependency information, but did not install all the missing dependencies for xorg-server as port echo depof:xorg-server showed.

Here you installed from an archive, so the build-time dependencies were not needed.

Even when upgrading? How can I solve the old problem related to my manually installation for dependencies?

comment:10 Changed 11 years ago by jmroot (Joshua Root)

Yes, even when upgrading. I don’t know how you got into a state where it thought an archive was not available, which made it build from source, but still didn’t install the build deps. But it looks like probably cleaning was all it took to get out of that state (wiki:FAQ#buildfails).
