gcc48 can't build if the assembly is being set to clang to build.

newer gcc versions were patched upstream to fix this, but not gcc48.

To fix many broken builds of other ports, we altered cctools to send the assembly to clang if clang-5.0 or greater is installed.

So the short answer is deactivate clangs >= 5.0, do your gcc48 build, and then reactivate them, and you should be OK.

[kencu (Ken)]

what os version are you on? I thought it was one of the older os versions.

See also #61398 #60087 #56996

[kencu (Ken)]

if your system is 10.7+ then cctools will send the asm to the system clang.

[dbl001 (dbl)]

I'm on 10.11.6.

[kencu (Ken)]

can you go with gcc-5+ then?

If not, and you have to have gcc48, I put some patches in #56996

[dbl001 (dbl)]

Yes. But when I tried to uninstall gcc48, noting happened.

yeah, so that is a bit weird.

what exactly do you have installed in the way of gcc?

port -v installed | grep gcc

where is it?

[kencu (Ken)]

It's your OpenBLAS +gcc48 , some ancient variant that just kept getting updated I guess.

You also have openmpi-default as +gcc9, and other things as +gcc10.

So I would uninstall everything that is not +gcc10, and then reinstall them with default variants (that should be gcc10) or make them +gcc10 if they don't default that way.

Remove all your gcc versions prior to gcc10, remove all your libgcc versions prior to libgcc10, uninstall everything that depends on any gcc before gcc10, and then reinstall them with gcc10 variants.

That should keep you in business for a few years, until you need to do this again.

This is kinda MacPorts' fault, as forcing to a specific gcc version basically guarantees this will happen to people over time. We should force to a generic "gcc" that represents the latest gcc instead....

Another project for a compsci grad student with nothing to do :>
