port update: hercules 3.10

[benoit.triquet@…]

Please find an update of Hercules to version 3.10. 3.07 does not build under Mac OS 10.9 due to setsockopt(..., SOL_TCP, ...) and 3.10 fixes this. "port lint" is clean.

Other changes to the Portfile vs. 3.07:

• maintainer set to nomaintainer because the previous update was 4 years old and the Portfile has been broken for a while now on 10.9
• website clearly states the license is the QPL
• added a conflict with hercules-devel (see other ticket for that new port) - I don't know if each port should exclude the other one or if just hercules-devel should exclude hercules
• removed the depend_libs clause as all the dependencies that were explicit in the previous portfile seem automatically identified according to the build log
• "--enable-optimizations" was renamed to "--enable-optimization"
• i see no reason to disable GUI support as it builds fine
• GCC 4.8 is necessary as Apple's Clang has an issue with long double usage in Hercules
• "universal_build no" does not seem necessary anymore, the default build is not universal anyway

Also note the new website because 3.10 is by a new upstream maintainer.

Out of curiosity: why force gcc48?

Replying to ryandesign@…:

Out of curiosity: why force gcc48?

Sorry that is an unnecessary leftover from my hercules-devel portfile that I did before upgrading the 3.07 hercules portfile to 3.10. 4.00 needs gcc 4.8 because their configure.ac wants to use -m128bit-long-double and clang refuses that switch so it's either gcc48 or patching the configure script but that would have required a further investigation that I did not carry out: does hercules-devel really need 128-bit long doubles and if so, does clang support that with what command line?

The portfile diff no longer has the compiler line.

I'm testing 3.11

HHCCF003S Open error file hercules.cnf: No such file or directory

It appears to force having hercules.cnf in the current folder which is fairly terrible.

I'm not sure what "universal_build no" does for this port.

I'll put in ports abandon ticket since it appears all his ports haven't been touched since 2011.

A ​patch for 3.07 was provided on IRC: r134519

[nerdling (Jeremy Lavergne)]

Is it possible to update the patch, expressing the compiler issues based on this chart?

[jeremyhu (Jeremy Huddleston Sequoia)]

does clang support that with what command line

"long double" is 16-byte alligned already. There's no need for a special command line.
