py38-tensorflow @2.0.0: error: cannot initialize a member subobject of type 'Py_ssize_t' (aka 'long') with an rvalue of type 'nullptr_t'

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

​py38-tensorflow does not build at least on 10.14 and 10.13:

tensorflow/python/lib/core/ndarray_tensor_bridge.cc:89:5: error: cannot initialize a member subobject of type 'Py_ssize_t' (aka 'long') with an rvalue of type 'nullptr_t'
    nullptr,                     /* tp_print */

​py37-tensorflow built fine on the same systems.

Cannot test on 10.12 because there its dependencies fail to build. Have not tested 10.15 (the 10.15 buildbot worker is busy).

Same problem when building under OS X 10.14.6, Xcode 11.2, SDK 10.14.

Replying to ryandesign:

Have not tested 10.15 (the 10.15 buildbot worker is busy).

​Failed on the 10.15 builder as well. So this subport does not build on any macOS version.

And this ​affects py38-tensorflow1 on 10.13 at least.

I committed f63da02f5371f8078754c450bd213742aa9deb14/macports-ports which fixed this for py38-tensorflow1.

Support for Python 3.7/3.8 has been dropped for py-tensorflow, so this ticket is no longer relevant. Closing.
