Doxygen @ 1.5.9 - Patch Fails on Tiger

[ctempleton3@…]

I would assume there is a ticket for this already but I can't find it. It appears that there is a bad patch file for doxygen.

Looks like a patch only applied on < 10.5 versions, so I'm guessing Chris tested on 10.5. Looks like they changed the way they handle libiconv so that patch may no longer be needed.

I don't have a tiger system on which to test, although maybe I could set one up on an external drive.

On 10.4.11 ppc, I ran into the same problem. The patch for os < 9 seems to no longer be necessary -- nothing in the target file that is similar to the lines trying to be patched.

In addition, the addition of configure.ldflags via reinplace causes link failures. The port trys to link against the Macports libmd5 instead of the one embedded in the program.

Have attached a patch for the Portfile that allows the port to build and install properly (for me at least).

Hope this helps.

Proposed patch for Portfile

Thanks for the patch! I'll run a quick test on Leopard, but it looks like this should be a simple fix. Thanks!

[css@…]

Committed to r53590. If you can verify that the current committed Portfile works, then this ticket may be closed.

[devans@…]

Just rebuildt doxygen successfully using the newly committed Portfile but it would be nice to hear from the ticket reporter as well.

Replying to devans@…:

Considering this ticket closed unless there's followup indicating that the current port fails on Tiger.
