Hi,

I retried to upgrade to get some more info:

Smultron.xcodeproj

So, actually there his a directory named Smultron.xcodeproj in the source. Cd'ed to source and tried to run xcodebuild by hand:

xcodebuild -project Smultron -alltargets -buildstyle Deployment build

xcodebuild: Error: the project name Smultron does not have a valid extension.

xcodebuild -alltargets -buildstyle Deployment build

xcodebuild: Error: the directory /opt/local/var/db/dports/build/_opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.darwinports.org_dpupdate_dports_aqua_Smultron/work/SmultronSource does not contain an Xcode project.

Maybe some incompatibility between the way xcode for 10.4 and xcode for 10.3 store their projectfiles?

[fulkkari@…]

Beginning with Xcode 2.1 the file format changed and started to use .xcodeproj as suffix. .xcode ending files are pre-2.1 project files. Smultron has apparently upgraded to the new file format, resulting in this problem on installations with pre-2.1 versions of Xcode. The issue can be fixed by upgrading to the newest version of Xcode, currently at 2.2.1. The problem should exist on all versions of Mac OS X using older versions of Xcode! aqua/Handbrake suffers from the same problem.

[lars_brueckner@…]

Henrik, thanks for the information.

However my system is 10.3 and Xcode2.1 requires 10.4, so I see no reasonable way to fix it.

It would be nice if the portfile would check for the xcode version and fail with a clear error message before it downloads code it cannot build.

As you noted, other ports suffer from this too. (See also bug #6111 for TeXShop)

Should this bug be assigned to "ports/base" as this is a general problem? Regards, Lars

[markd@…]

There is a 1.2.7 binary available now from the Smultron site. There is declining interest in fixing ports that have binaries available and no dependencies so this port may not be updated.

[markd@…]

The Smultron port has been updated to version 2 and the application no longer supports pre-10.4 systems, so I'm closing this one.
