graphviz @2.40.1_3+pangocairo+x11: error: unknown type name 'uuid_string_t'

[kneutron]

Env: 2011 iMac, core i5, 20GB RAM, running High Sierra 10.13.6 from Samsung T5 external USB3 drive

On port update; port upgrade outdated I have been seeing this build error for about a month?

This is preventing ' port upgrade ' from completing properly

This shouldn't happen, of course, and I can't reproduce it on my system.

Do you have anything in /usr/local/include, /usr/local/lib? If so, try moving /usr/local aside, then sudo port clean graphviz and try again. Or clean graphviz and then try upgrading using trace mode, sudo port -t upgrade graphviz. See wiki:FAQ#usrlocal.

# mv /usr/local /usr/locall
/usr/local -> /usr/locall

# port clean graphviz
--->  Cleaning graphviz

# port upgrade outdated
## Successful

--Merely cleaning the port did not fix it, but moving /usr/local out of the way did. I also have Brew packages installed, maybe it hit a conflict?

Anyhow, thanks for the quick response :). I think this can be closed.

Glad you got it figured out.

Indeed, software you install with Homebrew can cause problems for software you want to build with MacPorts and vice versa. For this reason we don't recommend trying to use two package managers on the same computer; instead, pick one and uninstall the other and any software you had installed with it. Of course we'd be delighted if MacPorts is the one you choose to keep, and if there's any software you need that's not in MacPorts, feel free to file tickets requesting it be added, or if you're feeling adventurous you can try to add it yourself and send us a pull request.
