Description

On Mac OS 10.5.2, on a fresh install of MacPorts 1.6, I receive the following error attempting to install source-highlight 1.9. Please note that this is the same build error as that of #14329, except I have boost version @1.35.0_0+darwin_9 installed, whereas the closed bug mentioned that upgrading to boost @1.34.1-2 fixed this problem.

Issue confirmed. I'm running Mac OS X 10.5.3 on a MacBook Pro, Xcode 3.0, MacPorts trunk@37255. source-highlight builds properly if boost @1.34.1_3 is installed, but fails if boost @1.35.0_0 is installed.

I modified the Portfile so that source-highlight 2.9 builds and runs with boost 1.35.0:

This might not be the ideal solution, but it got me over this particular hurdle until a MacPorts guru comes along and tidies it up.

Dumb question from a newbie. What "Portfile" are you showing a diff for? Would you mind providing an absolute path in /opt/local? Did you then just run 'sudo port install source-highlight' to use that Portfile?

I'd love to get this working on my iMac. Surprisingly, after moving my sites from Fedora Linux that use PHP, Rails, Tomcat, MySQL, and Imagemagick; source-highlight is the only missing piece.

Sorry about that, I assumed a bit more than I should have done... The path to the Portfile in question is:

/opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/ports/textproc/source-highlight/Portfile

This assumes the default MacPorts prefix of "/opt/local", and using rsync for updates. After making the change (having first created a backup copy of the Portfile, even though the original was only a sync away), running "sudo port install source-highlight" did the trick. Sadly, there's no maintainer listed in the Portfile, so I'm not sure what the likelihood is of a fix getting into the repository.
