gconf missing gsed as build dep?

[jpo@…]

From the failed build log:

:info:build   CCLD     libgconf-2.la
:info:build ../libtool: line 861: /opt/local/bin/gsed: No such file or directory

:info:build ../libtool: line 9883: /opt/local/bin/gsed: No such file or directory

Not sure if this is correct or not, but it fixed the build for me.

Thanks. In the future, please use WikiFormatting.

This should not be necessary. Can you please clean gconf and try building again, and then attach the complete main.log? Also, what version of the libtool port do you have installed?

This kind of problem usually occurs when you upgrade from OS X 10.8 or earlier to OS X 10.9 or later and do not uninstall and reinstall all ports as per the migration instructions. It has to do with the fact that as of OS X 10.9 we are no longer using .la files in MacPorts, and you still have .la file on your system from an older OS X version's MacPorts installation.

I can confirm that a clean install of macports 2.3.3 on a clean install of osx 10.10 does not exhibit this behavior, so I guess just close this ticket.

I upgraded from 10.9 (which was a completely clean install to an empty drive, copying nothing over) to 10.10, and just did mv /opt/local /opt/old-macports && rm -rf /Applications/MacPorts /Library/Launch{Agents,Daemons}/org.macports.* since I wanted to keep at least my old /opt/local/etc and /opt/local/var around in case I wanted to reference them later, and then installed macports 2.3.3 from the 10.10 pkg, and then started with a port install of my previous port -q echo requested, then added back my local ports repo to my macports.conf (which contained only Portfiles and patches, no work dirs or anything, and no ports in any part of the full dependency tree of gconf).

And for whatever reason I can no longer reproduce the problem either, so yeah, close this. Sorry for the noise.
