BUG: Darcs Build Crashes

[nschaan@…]

Tried installing Darcs on 12" powerbook and got the following error G4-Power-Book:~ Nathan$ sudo port install darcs ---> Building ghc Error: Target com.apple.build returned: shell command "DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/local/lib gmake " returned error 127 Command output: sh: line 1: gmake: command not found

Error: The following dependencies failed to build: ghc Error: /opt/local/bin/port: Status 1 encountered during processing.

Nathan,

What verison of OS X and Xcode are you running? Have you set your PATH variable to include the prefix where you installed darwinports (usually /opt/local/)?

Also, when did you last run

sudo port selfupdate

to update the base system and portfiles?

Thanks for responding

OSX v 10.3.9

xCode v 1.5

Ran selfupdate before submitting bug on 12/21.

Path is set appropriately.

Nathan,

The underlying problem is that ghc is failing to build because it can't find gmake (a requirement on Panther). What are the results of running

port installed gmake

and

which gmake

?

Thanks, Greg

Hi Nathan,

I haven't heard any reply to my last email asking about the gmake port. Were you able to install darcs (or ghc)?

Best Wishes, Greg

I have not heard back from Nathan (or received any other reports of this problem), so I am closing it as WORKSFORME.

If the problem recurs, the bug can be reopened.

Best Wishes, Greg
