| 1 | | Okay, I tried (naively) simply adding a line for the legacy-support PortGroup to the portfile, but the build fails with the same error on 10.11 platform. I'm not bitching about this because I really care about sbcl. Maxima has a dependency on sbcl. I don't want to try to convince maxima's port maintainer to switch the LISP system to ecl, which builds on my system without issues. I don't really know where to go from here, so somebody with more knowledge of the ports build system is going to have to step in. Why do I mention ecl? SageMath uses ecl to support maxima in their system and my build of SageMath from its makefile goes off without a hitch, even with the most current version. I can use Maxima in SageMath, but I am pushing this here on principle because I don't like to see my system progressively obsoleted deeper and deeper by stuff Apple is doing as a corporation. |

That said, I am perfectly happy to be told by the maintainer for this port that we have reached a dead end or that it's too much trouble to look farther. |
