Ticket #17606 (closed defect: fixed)
Default variant of vim doesn't build due to X11 dependency

Description (last modified by ryandesign@…) (diff)
I failed to build vim with no variants.
The configure log shows --enable-gui=no --without-x but the linker fails with this message:
/usr/libexec/gcc/powerpc-apple-darwin8/4.0.1/ld: Undefined symbols: __Xsetlocale
Adding -lX11 to the linker command line enabled it to build and I was able to continue.

This problem comes with --enable-multibyte. Replacing it with --disable-multibyte also fixes the problem. No libX11 needed.
Vim feature +multi_byte is activated again if i.e. variant +huge is specified.

Thanks for tracking this down. Strange enough that multibyte support needs X. How should I change this? Should I move multibyte in its own variant, as it was until some time ago?

Good question. I think you should take a look at ./src/auto/configure:15458 first. When you allow --enable-multibyte to be set (globally or by variant) you should make sure that $x_includes is empty if X11 is not installed. Otherwise configure tries to link the check program against libX11.

Adding this patch to the port should get it to work properly; a similar one against src/configure.in should probably be sent upstream.

- Status changed from new to assigned
I applied the patch to both vim and vim-app in r45697. I will look into sending a patch against configure.in to upstream.

- Resolution set to fixed
The patch has been accepted upstream as 7.2.159.
