source-extractor @2.28.0: error: call to undeclared library function 'finite'

Installing source-extractor on a macbook iOS with M3, I get the following error:

 sudo port install source-extractor

source-extractor also fails to build on our arm64 build machines, but please attach the main.log file so that we can verify if it's the same problem.

Replying to ryandesign:

Done!

Thanks

Yup, same problem we see:

This was also filed upstream as ​https://github.com/astromatic/sextractor/issues/24 and again as ​https://github.com/astromatic/sextractor/issues/27. finite became obsolete in 1999 and is not included on Apple Silicon systems. The code needs to be changed to use isfinite instead. This was done in ​https://github.com/astromatic/sextractor/commit/ced65570cb5b7073361dbf2c3c60631c3f54d0f9 so we could backport that patch.
