gcc12 build from source fails for me on Ventura 13.3.1(a); looks like the same PTR issue. I have a compressed log file.

Do you have binutils installed?
comment:6 Changed 18 months ago by jmroot (Joshua Root)
That doesn't answer the question; try port installed binutils
.
comment:7 Changed 18 months ago by dbl001 (dbl)
% port installed binutils None of the specified ports are installed.

Replying to jmroot:

As far as I know it is not possible to install lib/gcc12 with binutils active. The build system will complain and die with an error.
Nevertheless, neither libgcc12 nor gcc12 @12.3.0_0 builds on 10.15 and it has been that way for weeks now. The most irritating bit is that around the same time an upgrade somewhere broke also opencv4 and it also fails to build cleanly past around 78% according to the build progress meter. Opencv4 seems to depend on this port for the build, but the old libgcc12/gcc12 @12.2.0_2 does not seem to do the trick. If these two issues are even related is to me still a mystery.

It is apparently not a general issue, because it appears that gcc12/libgcc12 builds on every supported OS system and version when built by the buildbot <http://packages.macports.com/gcc12/>
Presumably some port you have installed is killing the build.

It's installed now ... did something change?

Not to be rude, but that is exactly why the ticket exists. We are several people here who have issues on several OS versions. The previous version built just fine, so something has changed somewhere. We are hoping for a solution, e.g. a port to disable to make the build work.
I just now tried to disable gdb and the build worked… There, that's a potential solution.

gdb would be the sort of port that might trip up the gcc build.
If that turns out to be a consistent finding, perhaps someone might sort out exactly why and upstream the issue.

This is ultimately an include ordering issue, as -I/opt/local/include
comes before -I.
in the compile commands.

I am trying to migrate from MacOS 13 to MacOS 14. gcc12 does not build. Many of my ports depend upon gcc12 (R, Octave, fftw, hdf5, etc.). This was working on MacOS 13. Suggestions?

Well, this ticket is about a build failure of gcc12 caused by having binutils or gdb installed. If that is what you are experiencing now, deactivate binutils or gdb, clean gcc12 and try again. If that is not what you are experiencing now, file a new ticket.

On Catalina, deactivating port 'gdb' solved the problem.

That's a workaround not a fix, as explained in comment:13.
