FYI: I have a libsdl-devel port that almost works, based on a recent snapshot of libsdl. I don't know if libsdl 1.2.x will ever compile properly on SL.

libsdl-framework builds, but in 32-bit not 64-bit mode~ libsdl doesn't build still and don't find any libsdl-devel. But even if lib-devel builds, there are still a lot of other ports that depends on libsdl not libsdl-devel won't build...

My solution.

Run sudo port install libsdl

After the fail go to /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/ports/devel/libsdl/work/SDL-1.2.13 and apply the patch.

After that try sudo port install libsdl again and it will work.

[jirapong.nanta@…]

I successfully install with

1. sudo port install libsdl
2. download original format of the libsdl.patch (download above)
3. cd /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/ports/devel/libsdl/ (You should find Portfile here)
4. sudo patch -p0 < ~/Downloads/libsdl.patch
5. sudo port install libsdl (again - i got error about libsdl-devel is being used)
6. sudo port -f activate libsdl

Please note that, while the attached patch will make libsdl build, it doesn't actually produce a *usable* libsdl.

[toby@…]

The patch was deleted because it did more harm than good. Basically, SDL won't build until the SDL developers fix it. Simple as that.

[phil@…]

Based on this thread  http://bugzilla.libsdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=581 , they're aware of the problem and it's been fixed in their SVN version. However, it's not clear when their next official release will come. Is it possible to build a MacPorts package from the SVN version?

[toby@…]

Nothing in that ticket indicates that it's been fixed. As noted above, the libsdl-devel port is based off the latest snapshot, and I had to hack it quite a bit to get it to compile.

[toby@…]

Oh - that specific ticket is fixed in svn, but there are other compilation issues that need to be worked around.

Wow, over 55 people cc'ed now. I'm betting I'm not the only one who didn't realize how dependent they were on libsdl until now. It seems, based on the bugzilla report linked above and on  this message on the SDL mailing list, that what we need is a backported bug fix to the 1.2 line, since even if 1.3 were released tomorrow, it might not work with applications made for 1.2. I'm still naive on FOSS culture, but should we consider all making a small donation to the SDL project to help sponsor such a fix? If half of the people watching this ticket gave three or four dollars, that would be around $100. I don't know if that would make any difference or not, but we could ask their devel list.

I compiled libsdl-1.3 myself. How do I let MacPorts know that it is now installed?

[lhunath@…]

You should just install libsdl-devel instead. And for those ports that depend on libsdl and you want to try 1.3 on, change their Portfile to depend on libsdl-devel instead.

[every_step_i_destroy@…]

Obviously, 64-bit support is currently impossible, unless Apple takes a look at their QuickTime.framework and AudioUnit.framework etc. to bring back legacy code and take away _LP64_ blocks (which leave out definitions) and build frameworks for 64-bit support. Bellow command tell you you can't build anything 64-bit which is depending on QuickTime.framework, for example.

nm -arch all /System/Library/Frameworks/QuickTime.framework/QuickTime | grep "for architecture"

Of course, you can look forward to see SDL 1.3, but it's not backward compatible, you know, so official-working SDL release won't be the near future.

The following command will configure SDL 1.2 for you, I hope.

./configure CC="gcc-4.0" CXX="g++-4.0" CPPFLAGS="-isysroot /Developer/SDLs/MacOSX10.5.sdk"

[every_step_i_destroy@…]

./configure CC="gcc-4.0" CXX="g++-4.0" CPPFLAGS="-isysroot /Developer/SDLs/MacOSX10.5.sdk"

Uh-oh, my bad. You need to apply a patch to SDL 1.2.13 ( http://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/macports-tickets/2009-March/027008.html for detail)

 http://trac.macports.org/raw-attachment/ticket/18955/libsdl-glxtokens.diff

then,

./configure CC="gcc-4.0" CXX="g++-4.0" CPPFLAGS="-isysroot /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk"
make
make install

That's worked for me.

Can you people seriously stop posting bogus advice into this ticket? Building a 32-bit SDL does not help at all, because all of its dependents are still trying to build 64-bit.

Patch that contains backport of enough of 1.2.14 to compile in 64-bit

[kenny@…]

I helped test the patch to 1.2.14 on the SDL ticket, so I thought I'd circle back here and update MacPorts to work with it.

I attached a patch of backporting the audio and cdrom changes coming in SDL 1.2.14 for Mac OS X and also the video patch from SDL ticket 581.

Hopefully this isn't bogus advice :-)

The patch I attached was really meant for MacPorts maintaners to use (e.g., toby), but you could apply it thusly:

Make sure old remnants are not there anymore:

• port uninstall libsdl
• port clean libsdl

Clean up libsdl-devel if you used it:

• port uninstall libsdl-devel

Make sure your ports tree is up to date and apply the patch to the port tree itself:

• port selfupdate
• cd /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org
• patch -p0 < /path/to/macports-libsdl-1.2.13-10.6.patch
• port install libsdl

libsdl-devel often gets installed first (ex. ffmpeg depends on libsdl-devel but not libsdl). When libsdl-devel is installed after using your patch the following error occurs

Simply deactivating libsdl-devel and anything that depends on it and then installing libsdl works. ffmpeg will then install and avoid installing libsdl-devel.

Can we expect a new version containing the fix to be released soon? Waiting on libsdl to make a new release seems more than pointless atm, because their list of issues that they want to fix before the release of 1.2.14 is long and activity in their project is low

Thanks for the patch information @kenny. My Qt-SDL project now builds successfully under Snow Leopard. Unfortunately running the program fails with the following:

dyld: Library not loaded: /opt/local/lib/libSDL-1.2.0.dylib
  Referenced from: /Client
  Reason: no suitable image found.  Did find:
	/opt/local/lib/libSDL-1.2.0.dylib: mach-o, but wrong architecture
Trace/BPT trap

I am running Mac OS X 10.6 with 64-bit Kernel and Extensions disabled. Initially I tried to remedy the problem by explicitly settings the build architecture in Qt with CONFIG += x86, however this does not help.

[nicholas.robinson@…]

Cc Me!

[kenny@…]

It sounds like part of your project is compiled with i386 (32-bit) and part is x86-64 (64-bit). You can use the file command to determine what architecture a binary or library file is compiled for. Especially since it sounds like you tried different approaches when trying to get it to compile.

If anyone has used some random workarounds suggested before where they've changed many things, I'd recommend:

1. Making sure you have the right GCC with: sudo gcc_select 4.2
2. Making sure you didn't inadvertently mix architectures: file /opt/local/lib/*.dylib; file /opt/local/bin/*
3. If you really messed something up, you might even want to remove MacPorts completely and reinstall.

However, this discussion doesn't belong on the bug tracker and further discussion should instead be put on a discussion list where more people can address your problem. I'd suggest  macports-users or the #MacPorts IRC channel.

Works for me, are you sure you're running the latest version of the port? (It was adjusted for a stealth update.)

Actually, it looks like you're using gcc-4.0 - if you're on Leopard/Tiger, file a separate ticket.

The current version available from the URL defined in the Portfile does not match the hashes specified in the Portfile. It seems there has been a new release since the Portfile was updated.

Replying to macports@…:

The current version available from the URL defined in the Portfile does not match the hashes specified in the Portfile. It seems there has been a new release since the Portfile was updated.

You can see #21544 for more info about that. I have downgraded the port back to 1.2.13 because 1.2.14 has not been released yet.
