libvpx fails to build universal on Apple silicon

[Gcenx]

Not currently at my mac but here’s a log I’d received ​https://github.com/Gcenx/macports-wine/files/9999499/main.log

During building the x86_64 slice it’s trying to link to arm64 only symbols?

Hi - any chance of a fix for this? Thanks

Same here, while trying to install ffmpeg +universal.

In fact the message was pretty clear : it fails because some of the libs it tries to link were for arm64 only.

In my case, it was libavcodec and libvpx (arm64 only).

You can check it using this command lipo /opt/local/lib/<any_dylib> -info

Then, I only had to uninstall non universal ports and relaunch my initial command :

//some of the followings are probably useless, but in case I misunderstood what happened, here's everything I did
sudo port uninstall ffmpeg
sudo port uninstall ffmpeg +universal
sudo port uninstall libvpx
sudo port clean ffmpeg
sudo port clean ffmpeg +universal

sudo port install ffmpeg +universal

if the tests are disabled, it will build universal.

% port -v installed libvpx
The following ports are currently installed:
  libvpx @1.13.1_0+universal (active) requested_variants='+universal' platform='darwin 23' archs='arm64 x86_64' date='2024-01-22T22:03:49-0800'

Starting from scratch (deleting /opt/local), libvpx is installed

titi@Dionysos ~ % port  installed libvpx
The following ports are currently installed:
  libvpx @1.13.1_0 (active)

Good, that is consistent with existing observations.
