I think this is more a GCC 11 thing than an Apple Silicon thing, the latter just happens to require the former.

has duplicate: #62152

[reneeotten (Renee Otten)]

it appears that this should have been fixed (see #60442) where the compilers.allow_arguments_mismatch yes was added in the Portfile... That doesn't seem to work anymore?

Replying to jmroot:

Perhaps gcc-devel needs to be added in the compilers-1.0 PG (likely somewhere ​here)?

Thanks for the suggestion. It took me a while to figure out where to look (I've been a user, but not very knowledgeable). I looked in /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/macports/release/tarballs/ports/_resources/port1.0/group and found the file I think you intended, compilers-1.0.tcl and edited line 731 to be:

if {${fortran_compiler} eq "gcc10 gccdevel"} {

I then issued the commands sudo port clean pgplot sudo port install pgplot

but got the same errors... So unless I didn't follow your suggestion correctly, this does not seem to be the issue. Regardless, thanks for your suggestion!

In df4975d15bb14eb70c12da9991e96911c6dc5cfc/macports-ports (master):

compilers pg: allow_arguments_mismatch should also apply to gcc-devel

Fixes: #61711

[reneeotten (Renee Otten)]

I *think* that the change I just merged should fix this... Please try sudo port selfupdate ; sudo port clean --all pgplot ; sudo port -dv install pgplot and report back!

Thank you very much! Now it's working OK!!!!

[rth238]

Yes, that did it. Thank you!
