It shows that some Python modules could be installed before something broke. My first attempt was to upgrade meson which depends on py311-meson. It would not build, so I uninstalled meson +python310 and saw in the logs key words like cython and wheel which let me first uninstall those and then reinstall, which fails.

Installed are:

  py311-packaging @23.2_0 (active) requested_variants='' platform='darwin any' archs='noarch' date='2024-02-09T19:40:45+0100'

Contents of crash reports from trying to upgrade py311-meson on PPC Leopard, Mac OS X 10.5.8

[ballapete (Peter "Pete" Dyballa)]

I added samples from system crash reports and from trying, without knowledge, to "debug" the problem. The contents of the uploaded file contains a few comments. Hopefully they can help!

[ballapete (Peter "Pete" Dyballa)]

I possibly came closer to understand my problem a bit more when I assumed that

  py-bootstrap-modules @2022-12-23_0 (active) requested_variants='' platform='darwin 9' archs='noarch' date='2023-01-22T21:40:10+0100'

was too much out-of-date and should be rebuilt and reinstalled. Afterwards I let port show leaves of Python 3.11 modules, and deleted them:

port uninstall py311-build py311-installer py311-setuptools py311-wheel

They were just leaves, nothing needed them. And they created some new leaves:

port uninstall py311-packaging py311-pyproject_hooks

So the base Python 3.11 installation was quite clean and I

Successfully built installer-0.7.0-py3-none-any.whl
Successfully built pyproject_hooks-1.0.0-py3-none-any.whl

and I invoked then

port -vsd build py311-build

which caused some disaster (just citing port's comments and inserting some empty lines, not mentioning the need to install two or three other modules):

So I have now, when documenting:

With this setup it does not work to install one kind of modules, others do build and install:

  py311-setuptools @69.0.3_0 (active) requested_variants='' platform='darwin any' archs='noarch' date='2024-02-11T22:41:15+0100'

With pip3 I could try to install those modules that port cannot – because I seem to have now a faulty build_wheel routine?

Replying to ballapete:

I have a similar failure mith modules for Python 3.11 on PPC Leopard, Mac OS X 10.5.8. For example see attached main.log.

Could you summarize what exactly fails? I would like to try reproducing. (I do not have a fully working Leopard setup atm, but I have 10.4 and 10.6, which supposedly gonna share these issues.) I am pretty sure basic python311 ports install fine, though I did not conduct any specific testing, and select ports are and were always broken for 10.5 (and 10.6 ppc), even though they could be building with no errors.

On a general note, I have an impression that:

a) compiler choice is broken now with some Python ports, and Xcode gcc/clang can be picked when modern gcc is required; b) meson-python has broken arch detection for PowerPC (this is not a guess really, but rather a fact), but it matters in some specific cases.

(Also recently a number of Python ports were broken by introduction of Rust dependency; hopefully will be fixed soon. But this does not seem to be relevant here.)

[ballapete (Peter "Pete" Dyballa)]

Replying to barracuda156:

Could you summarize what exactly fails?

No! I needed py311-meson for meson, which failed. I later tried to reinstall py311-wheel, which depends on failing py311-flit_core (so I do not know whether py311-wheel works). Most recently building again py311-build failed. You can also see #69319 and #69320.

It seems that when I try to install py311-installer it forcibly reinstalls py311-packaging and py311-pyproject. It also tries to rebuild py311-build – which now fails! Initially it could be built, maybe under different conditions (already installed other modules), as this sorted listing shows:

Schamschula writes in #69320 that on Snow Leopard, Mac OS X 10.6.8 it works fine…

I am pretty sure basic python311 ports install fine, though I did not conduct any specific testing, and select ports are and were always broken for 10.5 (and 10.6 ppc), even though they could be building with no errors.

I think Snow Leopard, 10.6 did not run on PPC, neither G4 nor G5 (not to mention G3). Besides, on PPC Tiger, Mac OS X 10.4.11 I had no problems with Python 3.11 modules!

My knowledge of Python is minimal so I cannot be of great help. (And I am going to boot into Tiger to build gcc10-bootstrap and try building poppler.)

Replying to ballapete:

I think Snow Leopard, 10.6 did not run on PPC, neither G4 nor G5 (not to mention G3).

10.6.8 support ppc via Rosetta. Early developer builds of 10.6 can run natively on PowerPC. Specifically for Python, 10.6 is similar if not identical to 10.5. I think I saw all the same Python issues on both. Since my 10.5 setup is temporarily defunct, I cannot check anything there which requires new gcc (and modern Pythons do). But 10.6 is a good proxy here.

I have checked just in case, and the original failure is still here:

This does not look anything arch-specific though, IMO. Maybe Python 3.8–3.9 subports should not have been updated to 8.x but rather pegged like Python 3.7 one.

Upstream says it is Macports set-up is wrong here: ​https://github.com/pypa/setuptools_scm/issues/1013

This corresponds to the findings I recorded there, #69320, instead of here: version mismatch of components in py-bootstrap-modules

py311-build                    @1.0.3  vs. 0.9.0       python/py-build
py311-flit_core                @3.9.0  vs. 3.8.0       python/py-flit_core
py311-installer                @0.7.0  vs. 0.6.0       python/py-installer
py311-packaging                @23.2   vs. 21.3        python/py-packaging
py311-parsing                  @3.1.1  vs. 3.0.9       python/py-parsing
py311-pep517                   @0.13.0 vs. 0.13.0      python/py-pep517
py-python-install              @0.0.3  vs. 0.0.3       python/py-python-install
py311-setuptools_scm           @8.0.4  vs. 6.4.2       python/py-setuptools_scm
py311-tomli                    @2.0.1  vs. 1.2.3       python/py-tomli
py311-wheel                    @0.42.0 vs. 0.37.1      python/py-wheel

and python-install-0.0.3 without a version or variant for Python 3.11:

py-python-install              @0.0.3          python/py-python-install
py36-python-install            @0.0.3          python/py-python-install
py37-python-install            @0.0.3          python/py-python-install
py38-python-install            @0.0.3          python/py-python-install
py39-python-install            @0.0.3          python/py-python-install
py310-python-install           @0.0.3          python/py-python-install

So a try would be to update the ingredients of py-bootstrap-modules?

[ballapete (Peter "Pete" Dyballa)]

I have set up a Portfile for up-todate py-bootstrap-modules. It built right from the start. To accomplish installation I had to fiddle with some paths and egg-info components.

[ballapete (Peter "Pete" Dyballa)]

New Portfile

[ballapete (Peter "Pete" Dyballa)]

I was too fast because I do not understand the purpose of this py-bootstrap-modules port:

Exit code: 1

So possibly with up-to-date software it needs now to include pyproject_hooks? -> distfiles/py-pyproject_hooks/pyproject_hooks-1.0.0.tar.gz

Upstream says it is Macports set-up is wrong here: ​https://github.com/pypa/setuptools_scm/issues/1013

I was able to reproduce the same failure for py38-setuptools_scm on 10.6.8, and can confirm that suggestion from upstream works.

We need to set build conflict with itself for this port.

[ballapete (Peter "Pete" Dyballa)]

In other words this means that those ports that depend on py-bootstrap-modules should depend on a list of needed Python modules?
