shared-mime-info @2.3 configure failure on 10.7

[isaacsnewaccount]

On a new install of Mac OS X 10.7.5, I tried sudo port install webkit-gtk. I do not know the version of the port. I eventually got an error with shared-mime-info:

I already tried sudo port clean webkit-gtk and retried the install, but without success.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Hmm, main.log says:

:debug:configure Using compiler 'MacPorts Clang 16'

and:

meson.build:2:0: ERROR: Unknown compiler(s): [['/opt/local/bin/clang-mp-16']]

and meson-log.txt says:

xcodebuild: error: '/opt/local/libexec/llvm-16/bin/clang' not found.

If MacPorts has selected clang 16 for this port, it should have added clang-16 as a dependency, so it should be installed and it should have those files. So let's sanity-check. Is clang-16 installed? Run:

port -v installed clang-16

Are those files installed? Run:

ls -l /opt/local/bin/clang-mp-16 /opt/local/libexec/llvm-16/bin/clang

Replying to ryandesign:

Hmm, main.log says...

Here are the command outputs:

$ sudo port -v installed clang-16
The following ports are currently installed:
  clang-16 @16.0.6_2+analyzer (active) requested_variants='' platform='darwin 11' archs='x86_64' date='2024-01-08T15:33:27-0500'

$ ls -l /opt/local/bin/clang-mp-16 /opt/local/libexec/llvm-16/bin/clang

I attempted it again, and this is the terminal output:
