MacVim doesn’t build on 10.6

[FGasper (Felipe Gasper)]

After the checksums, the log has:

The weird thing is that I can execute the command

cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_editors_MacVim/MacVim/work/destroot" && /usr/bin/tar -cvf - . | /usr/bin/bzip2 -c9 > /opt/local/var/macports/software/macvim/MacVim-7.4.snapshot76_1+huge.darwin_10.x86_64.tbz2

… just fine when I “sudo bash”.

Log from last full “port upgrade macvim” run

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

I agree, that is weird...

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Does this happen for any other ports or just MacVim? Does cleaning MacVim and retrying change anything?

[FGasper (Felipe Gasper)]

I’m only seeing it on MacVim, but it might happen with other ports. Cleaning and retrying doesn’t change anything.

The weird thing to me is that I’m able to generate the .bz2-ball manually..? I don’t know enough about MacPorts or MacOS to know what’s different between just me sudo/bash’d versus running “port”.

What are the permissions and ownership of /opt/local/var/macports/software/macvim/, and does it differ from the permissions and ownership of any other directory in /opt/local/var/macports/software/?

[FGasper (Felipe Gasper)]

Here is a sampling of what I have in that directory:

Do you have enough empty disk space? Although I would expect the appropriate errno in that case.

As this happens in the install phase I doubt it is caused by the MacVim port itself.

[FGasper (Felipe Gasper)]

I have enough disk space … many GiB free.

What strikes me is that I can create the tarball manually, but MacPorts fails when it attempts to execute the same command.

Would a dtruss help, perhaps?

[raimue (Rainer Müller)]

MacVim requires at least OS X 10.8. Whatever it was, I still doubt this was related to MacVim.
