enchant2 @2.3.4: missing groff dependency

Component: ports Version: 2.8.1
Keywords: ventura Cc:
Port: enchant2

Description

This week my port upgrade failed on enchant2. The build log showed that it needed groff, which was not on installed on my system. After adding groff, the installation went smooth. Please add groff as a dependency for this port.

kind of odd at first glance…. arm Ventura succeeds, but Intel Vantura fails with the groff error.

must be some difference there to explain that one.

Replying to kencu:

2.3.3 succeeded on arm64. 2.3.4 failed on x86_64. 2.3.4 has not yet been attempted on arm64 because of the backlog but I suspect it will fail since the use of groff to generate HTML versions of manpages was new in 2.3.4:

In d5e83c9ae4c981d42b8ef0f631b8f448b5ab0dea/macports-ports (master):

enchant2: requires groff

which is no longer installed by the system
on Ventura+, so has to be tested for and replaced
if necessary
