Description
While it's fine not to support Tiger, this causes mirroring failures. A couple of examples:
% port lint petsc os.major=8 ---> Verifying Portfile for petsc Error: Unknown dependency: mpich-clang34 ---> 1 errors and 0 warnings found. % port lint scalapack os.major=8 ---> Verifying Portfile for scalapack Error: Unknown dependency: mpich-clang34 ---> 1 errors and 0 warnings found.

Hmmmm. On line 308 of the portgroup, we're unconditionally disabling all older clang versions, including clang34.
I'll have to investigate...

Of note, mpich-clang34
hasn't been supported since August of 2017:
https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/commit/3aa83fd52375f4af609eed7d9f6dedbcb25738b7
This doesn't directly relate to the issue, since the portgroup determines what's valid. Nonetheless, it's an interesting bit of historical trivia.
Still digging...

Josh, has this been happening for a long time (a year or more), or did it start within the past few months...?
comment:5 Changed 3 years ago by jmroot (Joshua Root)
No idea, I just noticed the mirror failures today.
comment:6 Changed 3 years ago by mascguy (Christopher Nielsen)
No worries.
I'm adding supplemental logging in various places, to see if I can track down why this is occurring. (Won't be committing any changes though, this is just for local diagnostic purposes.)

Finally had a chance to fire up my old PowerBook G4, and boot into 10.4.
After updating MacPorts to 2.7.1, syncing, etc, this is what I'm seeing:
$ sw_vers ProductName: Mac OS X ProductVersion: 10.4.11 BuildVersion: 8S165 $ port version Version: 2.7.1 $ port info --fullname --depends petsc scalapack fullname: petsc @3.15.0+accelerate+hwloc+mpich depends_fetch: depends_extract: depends_patch: depends_build: sowing, python39, c2html, apple-gcc42 depends_lib: vecLibFort, mpich-default, hwloc depends_run: depends_test: -- fullname: scalapack @2.1.0+accelerate+gfortran+mpich depends_fetch: depends_extract: depends_patch: depends_build: cmake, gcc7, apple-gcc42 depends_lib: vecLibFort, libgcc, mpich-default depends_run: depends_test: $ port lint --nitpick petsc scalapack ---> Verifying Portfile for petsc ---> 0 errors and 0 warnings found. ---> Verifying Portfile for scalapack ---> 0 errors and 0 warnings found.
So I'm not sure where mpich-clang34 is coming from. Though overriding os.major
via the command line isn't 100% reliable, so I'm not surprised that the results are different.
Josh, is there anything else I can test from 10.4, to help diagnose this...?

Another question is whether this is only occurring for an Intel-based setup.
My old 2007-era MacBookPro should be able to run 10.4 as well, though I'd need to install the OS.

Josh, do you have any additional thoughts on this? (Not urgent, simply want to help you resolve this.)
comment:10 Changed 3 years ago by jmroot (Joshua Root)
No other clues yet except that I noticed there's also a dependency on the nonexistent mpich-clang70 on Leopard:
% port lint petsc os.major=9 ---> Verifying Portfile for petsc Error: Unknown dependency: mpich-clang70 ---> 1 errors and 0 warnings found.
comment:11 Changed 3 years ago by jmroot (Joshua Root)
Looks like mpi.get_default_mpi_compiler
might be what's making up nonexistent subports.
comment:12 Changed 3 years ago by mascguy (Christopher Nielsen)
Thanks Josh, I'll try to take a closer look at some point soon.
