Getline appears to be unavailable until 10.7 or later.

I ran into a similar error with a different port using PPC on MacOSX 10.4 and fixed it successfully using the information here: <http://forums.macrumors.com/threads/unable-to-compile-c-program-with-getline-using-gcc.1308709/>, which sends you ultimately here < http://opensource.apple.com//source/cvs/cvs-42/cvs/lib/> for the missing functions.

There are two files, getline.c and getdelim.c, and their headers in that directory, that provide the missing functions.

There is also this fix <https://trac.macports.org/browser/trunk/dports/textproc/uni2ascii/files/patch-ascii2uni.c.diff?rev=73852> for a similar error.

You could try to modify history.c, historyn.c, and probably el.c to add in those functions, and see where that takes you.

Thanks a lot. I'll modify el.c and el.h, then have a test.

I just try to install libedit again to see where el.c and el.h is, but the errors gone. This time the archive fetched from "http://cjj.kr.distfiles.macports.org/libedit", and last time the archive fetched from "http://thrysoee.dk/editline/".

I note there is an official getline replacement in the port now, added 4 days ago. It must have been rolling out when you first tried your build.

So I guess r149803 fixed this.
