base: failures during destroot, potentially related to fs_clone_capable

[Randrianasulu (Andrew Randrianasulu)]

I ran sudo port selfupdate and macports updated itself to 2.10.3

Now I can't install gnutls, mc (at least) from sources even with -t mode

with -t mode it hides

/opt/local/bin/gmkdir

and install_headers during destroot step in gnutls fails

without -t

:error:destroot Failed to destroot gnutls.

This just occurred on at least one buildbot, for new port mozjs128:

​https://build.macports.org/builders/ports-10.12_x86_64-builder/builds/289180/steps/install-port/logs/stdio

I thought this might simply be fluke, but it looks like it could be a legitimate 2.10.3 issue:

Here's another failure on the 10.12 buildbot, this time for port json-glib:

In short, a number of port builds have failed today, so far only on 10.12. Though the rest of the buildbots are still tied up with a large queue of ports, so still TBD at this point...

Andrew, MacPorts 2.10.4 was released last night. Run sudo port selfupdate to upgrade, then try again.

[Randrianasulu (Andrew Randrianasulu)]

thanks, already did so, and most ports now updated (with gdb and qemu being know failures on 10.12)
