mozjs60 fail on configure

[vallon (Justin)]

Upgrading policykit, and it is installing mozjs60. mozjs60 fails in configure.

I am not sure what is being checked here. I just did a test "port build xterm", and the build completed successfully, so it would seem that I can build from source. Software Updates shows nothing.

this bit looks worth trying...

run `xcode-select --install` and follow the instructions to install them then try again; if you wish to build without Xcode Command Line Tools installed, add the --disable-xcode-checks configure flag

Replying to kencu:

this bit looks worth trying...

run `xcode-select --install` and follow the instructions to install them then try again; if you wish to build without Xcode Command Line Tools installed, add the --disable-xcode-checks configure flag

This is still broken; shouldn't have to add that flag ... Xcode Command Line Tools just aren't leaving that receipt around anymore.

[kencu (Ken)]

sure, looks like something to change upstream. But until that percolates down, that flag may bail you out and be needed.

Is this a general problem (buildbots too) or just your system?

[d0wntime]

I don't know about buildbots, but I'm reading into it ... but I do know you have two separate users here saying something about it, in case you didn't notice that I am not the original reporter of the issue.

I can confirm that adding --disable-xcode-checks to configure.args in mozjs60's Portfile allowed it to build.

[d0wntime]

and yeah, indeed, this is a problem upstream.

Patch for Portfile to --disable-xcode-checks on Catalina

[vallon (Justin)]

Attached a portfile patch that turns off --disable-xcode-checks for >= Catalina (darwin >= 19). I can send a PR, if you want to commit it.

This sounds like another consequence of the problem described at wiki:ProblemHotlist#reinstall-clt.

Hi,

I have experienced this error on arm64, macOS 11.5.1 Bug Sur while attempting an install of "finch":

I have performed the check mentioned in the reference to the "Reinstalling the command line tools" problem above, but I get a valid response - namely:

12.5.1.0.1.1623191612

Installed CLTs:

This is the default install for a non-dev end-user.
