Description (last modified by RobK88)
I am unable to upgrade rust
from 1.69.0_1 to 1.70.0_0 on High Sierra (x86_64).
It looks like a problem with the bootstrap.
See attached main.log for more details.

I am afraid I cannot reproduce this error.
However, rust has now built successfully on the buldbots, so if you try again, you should be able to download the prebuilt binaries.
comment:4 Changed 18 months ago by RobK88
Thanks. But for some reason, MacPorts will NOT download the pre-built binaries for rust
. It insists on building it from source!
I do not know why. I am not using any variants.
port installed rust The following ports are currently installed: rust @1.69.0_1 (active)
I will try again but this time I will specify clang-16. (FYI -- High Sierra uses clang-10 by default).
Compiling now. Crossing my fingers!
comment:5 Changed 18 months ago by RobK88
So far, the upgrade to rust
1.70.0 is working after I specified clang-16
as the compiler to use.
Clang-16
was able to compile Program.cpp.o
(where it failed last time using clang-10
).
The compile is still in progress. I will let you know what happens,
But it looks like you may need to blacklist some compilers in the Portfile.
comment:6 follow-up: 7 Changed 18 months ago by RobK88
Yes, I can confirm that I was able to upgrade rust
to version 1.70.0_0 using clang-16
. That is, I used the following to upgrade rust
on my Mac running High Sierra.
sudo port -vs upgrade rust configure.compiler=macports-clang-16
$ rustc --version rustc 1.70.0 (90c541806 2023-05-31) (built from a source tarball)
So it looks like the default compiler on High Sierra (clang-10
) is unable to compile rust
version 1.70.0.
$ cc --version Apple LLVM version 10.0.0 (clang-1000.11.45.5) Target: x86_64-apple-darwin17.7.0 Thread model: posix InstalledDir: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin Grinchs-MacBook-Pro:~ rob$ Grinchs-MacBook-Pro:~ rob$ clang --version Apple LLVM version 10.0.0 (clang-1000.11.45.5) Target: x86_64-apple-darwin17.7.0 Thread model: posix InstalledDir: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin
You may want to consider blacklisting clang-10
in the Portfile for rust
. You might need to blacklist other compiler as well.
comment:7 Changed 18 months ago by MarcusCalhoun-Lopez (Marcus Calhoun-Lopez)
I am glad it is working for you.
If I could ask your help in tracking down which compilers to blacklist, I would appreciate it.
I am unable to reproduce the problem.
I see from the log file that you have the developer tools installed, and that is what is being used to compile Rust.
Could you please post the result of
DEVELOPER_DIR='/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools' cc --version
This should give slightly different results from the ones you posted earlier.
comment:8 Changed 18 months ago by RobK88
Marcus, here the the output of the command:
$ DEVELOPER_DIR='/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools' cc --version Apple LLVM version 10.0.0 (clang-1000.10.44.4) Target: x86_64-apple-darwin17.7.0 Thread model: posix InstalledDir: /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin
To be honest, I am a little baffled. I see that the buildbot was able to build rust
version 1.70.0_0 just fine on High Sierra. There must be something else going on with my Mac causing the build to fail when using the default clang-10
compiler on High Sierra.
comment:9 Changed 18 months ago by RobK88
P.S. I also do not know whet MacPorts insists on building rust
from source, instead of downloading the prebuilt binaries.
The only thing that I can see that is different in my build environment from the buildbot build environment is some of the dependencies needed to build rust
on my Mac were built using the +universal
variant. Maybe that is the reason for the all the rust
related issues on my Mac.
comment:10 Changed 18 months ago by MarcusCalhoun-Lopez (Marcus Calhoun-Lopez)
The buildbot is using Xcode 9.4.1, CLT 9.4.1.0.1.1528165917, so Rust's compiler.cxx_standard 2017
causes MacPorts to use clang-16, which, as you note, works fine.
Both your setup and mine use Xcode 10.1, CLT 10.1.0.0.1.1539992718.
Why my setup works and yours does not is a bit of a mystery.
From what I can tell in your build log, Rust was not downloaded as a binary because it was, at that time, unavailable.
:info:archivefetch ---> rust-1.70.0_0.darwin_17.x86_64.tbz2 doesn't seem to exist in /opt/local/var/macports/incoming/verified :msg:archivefetch ---> Attempting to fetch rust-1.70.0_0.darwin_17.x86_64.tbz2 from http://packages.macports.org/rust :debug:archivefetch Fetching archive failed: The requested URL returned error: 404 Not Found :msg:archivefetch ---> Attempting to fetch rust-1.70.0_0.darwin_17.x86_64.tbz2 from http://ywg.ca.packages.macports.org/mirror/macports/packages/rust :debug:archivefetch Fetching archive failed: The requested URL returned error: 404 Not Found :msg:archivefetch ---> Attempting to fetch rust-1.70.0_0.darwin_17.x86_64.tbz2 from http://mirror.fcix.net/macports/packages/rust
Why it is still a problem is also a bit of a mystery (at least to me).
MacPorts will not attempt to download a binary archive if the user has changed certain settings, such as delete_la_files
.
But, as you again note, there is indication of that.
Now that the buildbots have done their job, is there any hint in the build logs as to why the archivefetch
is failing?
comment:11 Changed 18 months ago by RobK88
Since my last build was successfully, I do not have a main.log build log to look at.
And I have not modified macports.conf. My setup is just a regular pain vanilla MacPorts installation on High Sierra.
Attached is my macports.conf

Interesting. It is strange that I have to manually specify the clang-16
compiler when installing or upgrading rust
. It should have been selected automatically without the need to specify the compiler.
comment:13 Changed 16 months ago by pcafstockf (Frank Stock)
I have the exact same problem, but since I have to use a custom / multi-install of MacPorts, I cannot rely on downloading a binary archive, but must instead build from source.
Worse, this is a build for High Sierra, and Xcode 10.1 is the latest that will still run on HS. I simply do not have the option of clang-16.
Please don't blacklist clang-10, as there are many ports which seem to depend on rust (I am trying to build amavisd-new). It seems kind of un-realistic to chop off such a large number of pors which currently claim to support older platforms.
comment:14 Changed 16 months ago by pcafstockf (Frank Stock)
Is it time for rust to adopt the MacPorts 'select' standard that Python, Perl, and others have adopted (e.g. rust-16, rust-17, etc.)?
comment:15 Changed 15 months ago by mascguy (Christopher Nielsen)
rust
was just updated to 1.71.1.
Can you folks try to build again, with this latest release?

comment:17 Changed 15 months ago by RobK88
@Christopher Nielsen -- I tried to build rust @ 1.71.1 from source but it failed. See https://trac.macports.org/ticket/68018
I will try to build it again but this time I will specify the clang-16
compiler and I will also cross my fingers!
I will report back.
P.S. MacPorts first tried to download and install the rust-1.71.1_0.darwin_17.x86_64.tbz2
package. But it does not exist on the MacPorts servers. It looks like the buildbot failed at building the rust package for High Sierra.

comment:21 Changed 15 months ago by RobK88
It looks like the old workaround still works. If one specifies macports-clang-16
as the compiler, it looks like rust @1.71.1
will build on High Sierra. At least it was able to build past Program.cpp.o
where it failed before. I am still waiting for the compile to complete. It will take some time on this old MacBook Pro.

I can confirm that rust @1.71.1
does build successfully on High Sierra when MacPorts is told to use the macports-clang-16 compiler

@Marcus - I am not sure why you are able to build rust on High Sierra on your Mac using the default compiler but I cannot. My setup is a plain vanilla install of MacPorts on my Mac running High Sierra. But some of the dependencies for rust
on my Mac were built using the +universal
variant. See below:

P.S. I see the prebuilt binaries for rust
and cargo
for High Sierra are now posted on https://packages.macports.org/rust/ and https://packages.macports.org/cargo respectively. So most other High Sierra users should NOT have have any issues with installing rust
and cargo
on their Macs running High Sierra (unless they insist on building the binaries from source).

@RobK88
"insist" may technically be accurate, but could imply the user is just being obstinate.
In truth, MacPorts itself requires one to build from source in some scenarios (such as a multi, or custom MacPorts installations).
I feel the need to point this out, as prebuilt binaries do not actually solve the defect in some well documented and supported MacPorts modes.
comment:28 Changed 13 months ago by RobK88
Yes. "insist on building" was a port choice of words. I should have said "(unless they want to build the binaries from source or MacPorts requires that the binaries be built from source)"
