liboobs fails to configure: missing crypt lib

[frstan@…]

could not complie liboobs under Leopard/Intel due to missing crypts lib. debug out put (partial):

checking for pkg-config... /opt/local/bin/pkg-config checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes checking for OOBS... yes checking for crypt in -lcrypt... no configure: error: crypt library is required.

Warning: the following items did not execute (for liboobs): org.macports.activate org.macports.configure org.macports.build org.macports.destroot org.macports.install Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.

Maybe you should try installing openssl before.

It it does work, then it means port:openssl should be added as a lib dependency.

[frstan@…]

openssl was installed. to be sure I reinstalled it. liboobs still wont configure. (and thanks for improving me tech jargon) :)

[nox@…]

Could you attach your config.log file to the ticket? It should be in $(port dir liboobs)/work

[frstan@…]

no /work in 'port dir liboobs' even after trying another port install liboobs

checking for OOBS... yes checking for crypt in -lcrypt... no configure: error: crypt library is required.

config.log from failed liboobs config stage

[frstan@…]

tried again. liboobs config log is attached

[nox@…]

From some googling:

You have to find references to "-lcrypt". The -lcrypt flag is not supported in Mac OS X. These functions are builtin to the OS and found in unistd.

I'll try to write some sort of a patch later, but I won't promise anything as I haven't Leopard yet.

frstan: Could you try this?

sudo port -d configure liboobs configure.post_args="ac_cv_lib_crypt_crypt=no"

Actually it also failed on Tiger. OS X never had a separate crypt library to begin with. r33890 should fix this. Please selfupdate and try again.

did selfupdate and liboobs installed fine! and thank you very much mate :)
