#51889 closed defect (wontfix)

gmp fails to build when path to selected xcode app contains parenthesis

Reported by: erik@… Owned by: macports-tickets@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.3.4
Keywords: Cc: MarcusCalhoun-Lopez (Marcus Calhoun-Lopez)
Port: gmp

Description

When xcode is installed to a path including parenthesis (for example: '/Applications/Xcode 7.3 (old)'), the paren characters are not escaped correctly, and build of gmp fails. Symlinking to the directory continues to resolve to the absolute path to tools, and still fails. Renaming the xcode directory to not include parenthesis, and re-selecting it with 'xcode-select' fixes the build.

Please correctly shell-escape paths with unusual characters when selecting make, gcc, etc.

Most of the ports in MacPorts would probably break in the same way, so we don't support installing Xcode to a path that contains spaces or other special characters.
