This appears to be a problem with the +universal build. Has duplicate #47484 which includes a complete build log. CCing that reporter as well.

Can you both please verify which version of Mac OS X you are using and the version of Xcode installed?

[lucorsica@…]

Hello, I'm using:

Yosemite 10.10.3 and Xcode 6.3 (6D570)

[dbevans (David B. Evans)]

Thanks.

My testing confirms that the issue is unique to the +universal build when using Xcode 6.3: earlier versions build correctly.

The problem stems from a cpp configuration test during the i386 build phase that is interpreted differently by 6.3, eventually resulting in yasm being invoked erroneously as

yasm -f machox32

rather than

yasm -f macho32

Fix committed in r135165. Please verify that this fixes your issue.

Hmm excuse me but what am I supposed to do exactly? What should I do with the file from r135165?

[dbevans (David B. Evans)]

Sorry. Just update your ports to get the new fix and try a clean build.

sudo port selfupdate
sudo port clean libvpx
sudo port install libvpx +universal

Thanks! But I tried again and got that error this time:

Error: org.macports.archivefetch for port ffmpeg returned: libsdl must be installed with +x11.

[dbevans (David B. Evans)]

This implies that libvpx now builds correctly for you so this ticket has been satisfied.

The error you now report just means what it says. Port ffmpeg requires libsdl +x11. You apparently have a version installed without the +x11 variant. To fix this (assuming your continuing to build +universal)

sudo port install libsdl +x11 +universal
sudo port clean ffmpeg
sudo port install ffmpeg +universal
