BUG: Can't port install xfig or transfig because netpbm dependancy fails to build

[sbberes@…]

Dear Sirs, First, I am a life sciences researcher who does genomics work on infectious bacterial pathogens. My research involves a lot of bioinformatics although I do not have extensive educational training in computer science. I have been trying to get installed on my dual processor G5 mac MUMmer3.18 software for comparing genome sequences. The software has graphics output which requires gnuplot, xfig, and fig2dev. I installed, updated and sync'd DarwinPorts. I then port installed gnuplot. When I tried to port install xfig I got the following error out put: bcm208-24:~ sbberes$ sudo port install xfig Password: ---> Building netpbm with target {} Error: Target com.apple.build returned: shell command "cd "/opt/local/var/db/dports/build/file._opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.opendarwin.org_dpupdate_dports_graphics_netpbm/work/netpbm-10.29" && make messages=yes" returned error 2 Command output: make -C other/ -f /opt/local/var/db/dports/build/file._opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.opendarwin.org_dpupdate_dports_graphics_netpbm/work/netpbm-10.29/converter/other/Makefile \ SRCDIR=/opt/local/var/db/dports/build/file._opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.opendarwin.org_dpupdate_dports_graphics_netpbm/work/netpbm-10.29 BUILDDIR=/opt/local/var/db/dports/build/file._opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.opendarwin.org_dpupdate_dports_graphics_netpbm/work/netpbm-10.29 all make -C jbig/ -f /opt/local/var/db/dports/build/file._opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.opendarwin.org_dpupdate_dports_graphics_netpbm/work/netpbm-10.29/converter/other/jbig/Makefile \ SRCDIR=/opt/local/var/db/dports/build/file._opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.opendarwin.org_dpupdate_dports_graphics_netpbm/work/netpbm-10.29 BUILDDIR=/opt/local/var/db/dports/build/file._opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.opendarwin.org_dpupdate_dports_graphics_netpbm/work/netpbm-10.29 all make[3]: Nothing to be done for `all'. make -C pnmtopalm/ -f /opt/local/var/db/dports/build/file._opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.opendarwin.org_dpupdate_dports_graphics_netpbm/work/netpbm-10.29/converter/other/pnmtopalm/Makefile \ SRCDIR=/opt/local/var/db/dports/build/file._opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.opendarwin.org_dpupdate_dports_graphics_netpbm/work/netpbm-10.29 BUILDDIR=/opt/local/var/db/dports/build/file._opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.opendarwin.org_dpupdate_dports_graphics_netpbm/work/netpbm-10.29 all make[3]: Nothing to be done for `all'. make -C jpeg2000/ -f /opt/local/var/db/dports/build/file._opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.opendarwin.org_dpupdate_dports_graphics_netpbm/work/netpbm-10.29/converter/other/jpeg2000/Makefile \ SRCDIR=/opt/local/var/db/dports/build/file._opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.opendarwin.org_dpupdate_dports_graphics_netpbm/work/netpbm-10.29 BUILDDIR=/opt/local/var/db/dports/build/file._opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.opendarwin.org_dpupdate_dports_graphics_netpbm/work/netpbm-10.29 all make[3]: Nothing to be done for `all'. make -C cameratopam/ -f /opt/local/var/db/dports/build/file._opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.opendarwin.org_dpupdate_dports_graphics_netpbm/work/netpbm-10.29/converter/other/cameratopam/Makefile \ SRCDIR=/opt/local/var/db/dports/build/file._opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.opendarwin.org_dpupdate_dports_graphics_netpbm/work/netpbm-10.29 BUILDDIR=/opt/local/var/db/dports/build/file._opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.opendarwin.org_dpupdate_dports_graphics_netpbm/work/netpbm-10.29 all make[3]: Nothing to be done for `all'. make -C fiasco/ -f /opt/local/var/db/dports/build/file._opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.opendarwin.org_dpupdate_dports_graphics_netpbm/work/netpbm-10.29/converter/other/fiasco/Makefile \ SRCDIR=/opt/local/var/db/dports/build/file._opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.opendarwin.org_dpupdate_dports_graphics_netpbm/work/netpbm-10.29 BUILDDIR=/opt/local/var/db/dports/build/file._opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.opendarwin.org_dpupdate_dports_graphics_netpbm/work/netpbm-10.29 all make -C codec -f /opt/local/var/db/dports/build/file._opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.opendarwin.org_dpupdate_dports_graphics_netpbm/work/netpbm-10.29/converter/other/fiasco/codec/Makefile \

Error: The following dependencies failed to build: transfig netpbm

Any assitance you can give to a newbie who is low on the learning curve would be appreciated. P.S. I did search for similar errors prior to submitting this.

Assigning to maintainer

You can try to change set use_gcc "gcc" for set use_gcc "gcc-3.3" in /opt/local/var/db/dports/sources/rsync.rsync.opendarwin.org/dpupdate/dports/graphics/netpbm/ Portfile

and see what happens
