podofo @0.9.6_4 : Please update podofo to 0.97.

[MrB74]

Podofo 0.97 was released on January 9th 2021 ​http://podofo.sourceforge.net/

As developer of Scribus, as we move a version with Qt6 compatibility, we need C++17 support, which podofo 0.97 brings and 0.9.6_4 does not due to std::auto_ptr usage.

Would you be able to update the podofo port please?

thanks Craig (cbradney@…)

Hi

any updates for this one please? I am attaching a Portfile that worked for me, although patching offsets might need changing. Removed the cmake patch, changed to C++17, adjusting checksums and filenames

thanks

the port builds also fine for me locally with the Portfile you attached. However I can't really find anywhere upstream that a C++17 compatible compiler is required to compile this package. In fact, the README says that it's tested with gcc 4.0 [Mac OS X 10.4.10] ("Unix Makefiles" target) which most likely doesn't support c++17 - correct? So does this really *need* this to build or can we use an Apple clang version on older systems (I see the current Portfile requests already a C++11 compiler though, which I cannot also not find upstream).

Admittedly, I don't know anything about this port but given that only scribus and scribus-devel depend on it should make it pretty easy to update... @dbevans hasn't been active for a while although more recently he's committing again. If you could comment on the question above I am happy to submit this as a PR tomorrow and if there is no response from Dave, I'll merge this before the weekend.

You may not need to compile podofo with C++17 so feel free to change that in the Portfile, however 0.97 enables C++17 usage by the removal of std::auto_ptr when std::unique_ptr is available, as described at ​https://sourceforge.net/p/podofo/tickets/17/

Thanks for helping out!
