lablgtk2 @2.18.0_0 Configure Error - Build Failure

port install lablgtk2 fails with:

The problem from the config log seems to be:

configure:2592: checking for camlp4o
configure:2620: result: no
configure:2629: error: Cannot find camlp4o.

But I have camlp5 installed.

After installing the ocaml-camlp4 port, which apparently does not conflict with camlp5, I was able to reinstall lablgtk2 from source (port -s install lablgtk2).

Which I needed since the precompiled port of lablgtk2 2.18.0 (at least for Mac OS 10.8) has a file which got broken by the recent upgrade to ocaml +4.02.1_0:

Error: /opt/local/lib/ocaml/site-lib/lablgtk2/pango.cmi
is not a compiled interface for this version of OCaml.
It seems to be for an older version of OCaml.

Therefore, we might want to add ocaml-camlp4 to the build dependencies of lablgtk2, possibly after checking that the newest version of lablgtk2 (2.18.2) still has this issue.

HTH!

Same issue with lablgtk2 2.18.2. I attached a proposal for a new portfile.

Update proposal to the portfile of lablgtk2

Replying to macosx12345@…:

Same issue with lablgtk2 2.18.2. I attached a proposal for a new portfile.

lablgtk2 2.18.3 (just released) fixes crashes in e.g. unison when compiled with ocaml 4.02 rather than ocaml <= 4.01.

With this patch, lablgtk2 depends on both ocaml-camlp4 and ocaml-findlib which conflict with one another and thus cannot be active at the same time.
