Configuration Dependency issue: texlive_base @2007_7 fails to compile if icu @4.2.1_1 is installed.

Just stumbled across this, and am submitting a bug report as well, but in case you are having this problem. Here is any easy fix...

When you build icu BEFORE texlive_base, texlive_base fails with...

Biko:~ sck$ sudo port install icu texlive_base ---> Fetching icu ---> Verifying checksum(s) for icu ---> Extracting icu ---> Applying patches to icu ---> Configuring icu ---> Building icu ---> Staging icu into destroot ---> Installing icu @4.2.1_1 ---> Activating icu @4.2.1_1 ---> Cleaning icu ---> Fetching texlive_base ---> Verifying checksum(s) for texlive_base ---> Extracting texlive_base ---> Applying patches to texlive_base ---> Configuring texlive_base ---> Building texlive_base Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command " cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_tex_texlive_base/work/texlive_base-2007" && make all " returned error 2 Command output: _main in makeconv.o

But, if you compile texlive_base FIRST, then icu, everything is happy!!!

Biko:~ sck$ sudo port install texlive_base icu ---> Fetching texlive_base ---> Verifying checksum(s) for texlive_base ---> Extracting texlive_base ---> Applying patches to texlive_base ---> Configuring texlive_base ---> Building texlive_base ---> Staging texlive_base into destroot ---> Installing texlive_base @2007_7+motif ---> Activating texlive_base @2007_7+motif ---> Cleaning texlive_base ---> Fetching icu ---> Verifying checksum(s) for icu ---> Extracting icu ---> Applying patches to icu ---> Configuring icu ---> Building icu ---> Staging icu into destroot ---> Installing icu @4.2.1_1 ---> Activating icu @4.2.1_1 ---> Cleaning icu Biko:~ sck$

Enjoy,
