Are you sure this happens with perl modules in general? You'll notice the configure phase is correctly showing /opt/local/bin/clang-mp-9.0 in use.

Are you sure this happens with perl modules in general?

No, I am not sure.

You'll notice the configure phase is correctly showing /opt/local/bin/clang-mp-9.0 in use.

That's my point: the configure phase shows that the correct compiler is selected, yet by the build phase, the compiler that had been used to compile perl5.30 got used instead. Certainly the p5-perlmagick port does not specify clang-3.4, neither does the perlmagick build system, so the clang-3.4 compiler choice has to be coming from perl5.30's config files, and it seems to me that the bug is either perl5.30 doing that, or the perl5 portgroup not sufficiently overriding that.

Note that the problem does not occur with perl5.28:

But it does happen with perl5.30:

This suggests to me that the bug is in perl5.30, not the perl5 portgroup.

comment:3 Changed 5 years ago by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)

Here's the same problem affecting p5.30-term-gnuplot, so it's not just a p5.30-perlmagick problem.

comment:4 Changed 5 years ago by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)

Cc: jmroot added

Looks like [7080039472288d673d7b7cbd261095768bdc458f/macports-ports] fixed this for p5-perlmagick and p5-term-gnuplot.

But some other ports are still affected like p5.30-moose. Do we need to handle those on a case by case basis?

comment:5 Changed 5 years ago by jmroot (Joshua Root)

I wonder if it might be worth replacing the build-time ${configure.cc} in Config_heavy.pl with something that will always exist, like /usr/bin/cc. Ports that aren't using the right compiler would still need to be fixed individually, but it would get past sanity checks like p5-moose uses and would allow end users to compile XS out of the box even if they don't have the exact clang port that was used to build perl.

comment:6 Changed 5 years ago by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)

Another remaining example: p5.28-io-tty:

Now let's see what we can find out about your system
(logfiles of failing tests are available in the conf/ dir)...

ERROR: cannot run the configured compiler '/opt/local/bin/clang-mp-3.4'
(see conf/compilerok.log). Suggestions:
1) The compiler '/opt/local/bin/clang-mp-3.4' is not in your PATH. Add it
   to the PATH and try again. OR
2) The compiler isn't installed on your system. Install it. OR
3) You only have a different compiler installed (e.g. 'gcc').
   Either fix the compiler config in the perl Config.pm
   or install a perl that was built with the right compiler
   (you could build perl yourself with the available compiler).

Note: this is a system-administration issue, please ask your local
admin for help. Thank you.

It is so dumb that perl uses the compiler that was used to build itself to build other modules. What an idiotic design decision. Yes, let's replace it with /usr/bin/cc I guess.

comment:11 Changed 3 years ago by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)

This would be a good issue to fix before the bulk add of p5.34 ports, since not fixing it causes many build failures on Mac OS X 10.6.

comment:12 Changed 3 years ago by kencu (Ken)

I took steps over the past six months to remove all need for perl from the clang builds on < 10.7. So this issue with clang-3.4 should no longer exist, and perl5.X should be built by the default compiler, which is clang-9.0 at present.

We might need a dep on clang-9.0, but it is the default compiler and is hopefully always present for builds.

comment:13 Changed 3 years ago by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)

The issue still exists as of today, as evidenced by the large number of p5.32 build failures on 10.6, such as for example p5.32-mac-systemdirectory:

Can't exec "/opt/local/bin/clang-mp-3.4": No such file or directory at inc/ExtUtils/HasCompiler.pm line 133.

Regardless, I recommend we modify the perl config files to reference a compiler that is guaranteed to exist (comment:5).

comment:14 Changed 3 years ago by kencu (Ken)

I can't speak to that, but (AFAIK) none of the clang compilers declare a dep on perl, so (AFAIK) perl could build with any compiler.

Unless there is some way that some other thing that ultimately clang needs requires a macports perl -- can't say about that. Bin deps on perl confuse the rdeps too much for me to sort that out.

(Oh -- and what is already built with some baked in /opt/local/bin/clang-mp-3.4 is really hard to say.)

I don't know what the best course is, but the easiest course is to just require clang-3.4 I guess. Luckily there I have reduced the clang-3.4 footprint from about 800MB to 16 MB recently :>

comment:15 Changed 3 years ago by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)

The best course of action is comment:5.

comment:16 in reply to:  15 Changed 3 years ago by kencu (Ken)

Replying to ryandesign:

The best course of action is comment:5.

That makes it very simple then.

comment:17 Changed 3 years ago by kencu (Ken)

BTW, on my system at least, perl5.30 is built with clang-9.0 and has that baked in:

  Compiler:
    cc='/opt/local/bin/clang-mp-9.0'

I haven't the slightest idea how that happened, but there she be.

perl5: address problematic baked-in values

Use generic /usr/bin/cc for compiler since the specific one used to
build perl may not be available at runtime. Remove flags specifying SDK
and deployment target since different ones may be specified in the
environment at runtime, and, similar to the compiler, the SDK that was
used at build time may not be available at runtime.
