git-annex @10.20230321: error: Warning: Couldn't figure out LLVM version! — at Version 3

Reported by: Jaharmi (Jeremy Reichman) Owned by:
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.8.1
Keywords: Cc:
Port: git-annex

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

Summary

Installing git-annex fails with what appears to be a GHC error.

Expected results

git-annex should install with "sudo port install git-annex" on macOS 14.2 with Xcode 15.1 and MacPorts 2.8.1 installed on Apple Silicon (M1 Max). This is the first port installed on the computer.

Actual results

git-annex does not install. The main.log indicates a problem with GHC. Multiple versions of GHC may have been installed: 9.6.3_0 and 8.10.7.

It looks like the error comes from ghc 8.10.7.

Cleaning the port with

sudo port clean git-annex 

followed by

sudo port install git-annex

did not resolve the issue.

I did not find this issue in the Problem Hotlist or in existing tickets.

The error:

Warning: Couldn't figure out LLVM version!

appears related to GHC 8.10.7 vs 9.x, per GitHub issue #667.

It builds for me on macOS 12 x86_64, or at least it gets past the problem you saw; I canceled the build after 7 minutes because I didn't want to wait.

I see a new version of git-annex is available. Maybe updating the port would help, or hurt.
