Hello

Here are some information

• mac ox 10.12.6 (16G29) SIERRA
• XCode Version 9.0.1 (9A1004)

Best regards

Sure; Xcode 9 does not contain the 10.12 SDK, so programs like apparently openconnect-gui that expect Xcode to contain an SDK version that matches the macOS version will have problems. Actually I don't see mention of SDKs in openconnect-gui, but it uses Qt, so maybe all programs that use Qt have this problem.

[MarcusCalhoun-Lopez (Marcus Calhoun-Lopez)]

This is a symptom of the same problem as #54044.
Qt was built using a version of Xcode that had the 10.12 SDK, which was then recorded in ${prefix}/libexec/qt5/mkspecs/qdevice.pri.
Later, Xcode was upgraded to a version that no longer possessed the SDK, but qmake continues to look for it.

In adf50839857db7865896f10a46e9f24d5b95f699/macports-ports:

qt5*: do not record SDK version in config file

Upgrading Xcode sometimes removes SDKs.
If the SDK used to build Qt disappears, Qt still looks for
the old, nonexistent, SDK.

Fixes #54044
Fixes #55195

Replying to rsuray:
It is possible that when you made the most recent attempt, the fix had not become available yet.
Please run the following commands

sudo port sync
sudo port clean qt5-qtbase openconnect-gui
sudo port install openconnect-gui

After this, please attach the main.log for the most recent clean build.

So, now you're using -sdk macosx. Just to check: Does this work ok on older Xcode versions that don't have an SDK called "MacOSX"? e.g.:

$ sw_vers
ProductName:	Mac OS X
ProductVersion:	10.9.5
BuildVersion:	13F1911
$ xcodebuild -version
Xcode 6.2
Build version 6C131e
$ ls /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/
MacOSX10.10.sdk	MacOSX10.9.sdk
$

FYI, this is happening again for 10.11, when building LibreCAD and LibreCAD-devel:

issue:63061 - qt5: librecad build fails: could not resolve SDK Path for 'macosx10.11'
