#68874 new defect

cmake-1.1 portgroup: can't read "cmake._archflag_vars": no such variable

Port: cmake

Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))

I tried to include the cmake 1.1 portgroup in a variant. This failed at configure time: 

DEBUG: Executing proc-pre-org.macports.configure-configure-0
DEBUG: CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/local/include" inserted into CFLAGS="-Os -DNDEBUG -I/opt/local/include" CXXFLAGS="-Os -DNDEBUG -I/opt/local/include -stdlib=libc++"
        (using ccache)
DEBUG: Executing proc-pre-org.macports.configure-configure-1
Error: Failed to configure tea: can't read "cmake._archflag_vars": no such variable

I could work around the problem by using: 

global cmake._archflag_vars

before including the cmake 1.1 portgroup.

Similar problem with the qmake5 portgroup in #68875.

The PortGroup mechanism was designed to be used at the top of a Portfile, not in a variant. This is one of the things that happens if you don't do that (because variants create a proc).
