Hard to tell what's going wrong here. So far, all we know is that gpac is broken for some reason, and it needs to be rebuilt, but it can't be active while being rebuilt. So, to rebuild it, please run:

sudo port -f deactivate gpac
sudo port -n upgrade --force gpac

After doing that, is it still reported as broken?

It is virtually the same:

Replying to ryandesign:

It was an update to another port that forced the rebuild. 3 ports were rebuilt. 2 succeeded, gpac failed. Can't remember which port upgrade triggered it. :(

Maybe Octave?

[tehcog (tehcog)]

I cleaned up by removing all leaves (there was quite a few). after that I re-ran:

sudo port -f deactivate gpac
sudo port -n upgrade --force gpac

It built successfully:

Not sure why.

@ryandesign, thanks for your help. I think you can close this one. Not sure what happened but removing leaves seemed to solve it. The only reason I mentioned octave is because I had an error in my system log that was dated around the same time that ports was upgraded.

Is there a general way to log all ports activities? Can you point me to something in the ports documentation, or is this a fundamental OS question?

Thanks again

It fails to build on Lion as well…

[pmetzger (Perry E. Metzger)]

iEFdev: this is a distinct problem. Can you please open a different report about it? I'm going to close this report because the initial problem (which is quite different) is gone and the submitter asked to close it.

Ok, thanks. I will.
