Macports build/failure log for qt5-qkwebkit-5.6.1

[mouse07410 (Mouse)]

The problem appears to be with the qt5-qtwebkit update, because (a) all the other QT5 components get installed successfully, and (b) qt5-qtwebkit-5.5.1 did not seem to have any problem (with all the patches applied by Macports :).

I'm attaching the current/latest log from Macports. It seems to complain about Xcode not being set up properly - but every other Macports port, and everything else works fine, and I just re-run sudo xcodebuild -license to make double-sure that everything Xcode-wise is OK.

Does qt5-qtwebkit-5.6.1 port now require dependencies to be Universal? All my systems now dropped "fat" binaries, because there's neither need nor reason to ever build for i386 in our environment...

[ken-cunningham-webuse]

I'm a bit unclear here -- are we talking about qt5-qtwebkit 5.5.1_5 (like the title for this ticket says, and like the fail log indicates, and which seems to be the most recent available on macports) or qt5-qtwebkit 5.6.1 (for which I don't see a qt5-qtwebkit @5.6.1 port available and doesn't seem to exist)?

if we're talking about qt5-qtwebkit @5.5.1_5 I just grabbed it from the buildbot...it looks OK.

$ port -v installed qt5-qtwebkit
The following ports are currently installed:
  qt5-qtwebkit @5.5.1_5 (active) platform='darwin 16' archs='x86_64'

and just for fun, built it too without a problem on Sierra / Xcode 8.1.

[mouse07410 (Mouse)]

Oh, my fault - yes, certainly the current/latest port 5.5.1_5. 5.5.1_4 was OK.

Closing since r153389 seems to have fixed the problem.
