The error is from 10.14 - it builds fine on 10.13

1.6 fails to build on the buildbot on all OS versions. (1.5 succeeded on all OS versions.) Maybe a missing dependency?

[kurthindenburg (Kurt Hindenburg)]

Strange it builds here with and without trace - I'll investigate more

In 7f3623246521718f1e7f164a3e50bf2bb966ee49/macports-ports (master):

mindless: add dep for possible build issue; use right compiler

see #57867
closes #57866

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

​Still fails, unfortunately.

[kurthindenburg (Kurt Hindenburg)]

Is there anyway to verify /opt/local/lib/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/2.10.0/loaders.cache or the files in /opt/local/lib/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/2.10.0/loaders/ on the buildbot? Or if it also fails on anyone system?

If I remove the svg lines from the cache, I get the error above.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Sure. The loaders.cache file on the buildbot is missing two sections I see present on my own system: The one for libpixbufloader-svg.so and the one for libopenraw_pixbuf.so. Looks like gdk-pixbuf2 will opportunistically use librsvg and libopenraw to make those loaders.

Unfortunately, both librsvg and libopenraw themselves depend on gdk-pixbuf2, so gdk-pixbuf2 cannot depend on them, because that would create a circular dependency, which MacPorts cannot accommodate.

So I don't know how this should be resolved. We might need to have separate subports of gdk-pixbuf2 for at least the svg and openraw loaders. Dave, what do you think?
