doxygen fails, attempting to link against system libiconv

Is this a duplicate of #19851? Can you verify that this is the latest version of the port? This iconv stuff changed again?

[conradwt (Conrad Taylor)]

Yes, I was attempting to install doxygen version 1.5.9.

[tobypeterson]

Looks like it is detecting libiconv_open (probably in macports' libiconv), but attempting to link against the system iconv, which doesn't contain the deprecated libiconv* symbols

[cssdev]

Is this something specific to an unreleased version of MacOS X? I'm unable to duplicate the problem with Leopard.

It should hopefully be a matter of adding TMAKE_LFLAGS = -L{$prefix}/lib to the appropriate tmake.conf.

Replying to css@…:

64-bit libiconv doesn't contain the deprecated symbols.

FYI - this should still be fixable without access to Snow Leopard. Just check the linking of the final build product (using otool -L) and make sure it's not linking against the system libiconv. That's a bug regardless of the OS version.

I've been able to reproduce this error. I'll have to look into it after I return from travel. Doxygen needs to configure to include -L${prefix}/lib on its link line.

Hello!

I'm very new to this community, but nevertheless I figured out a way to correct this bug:

0. Install doxygen and get the error-message

1. Perform a search for the packages, that macports downloaded - the easiest way is to search for the file "libdoxycfg.a"

find /opt/local/ | grep libdoxycfg.a

(my package directory is in

"/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_textproc_doxygen/work/doxygen-1.5.9/" )

2. Go into the directory ./src

3. Change the Makefile.doxygen by adding ${prefix}/include to the line INCPATH

e.g. INCPATH = -I../qtools -I../libpng -I../libmd5 -I. -I/opt/local/include

and by adding ${prefix}/lib to the line LIBS

e.g. LIBS = -L../lib -L/opt/local/lib -ldoxygen -ldoxycfg -lqtools -lpng -lmd5 -liconv

4. Perform again

sudo port install doxygen

I hope this helps and maybe there is someone who can write an appropriate patch or even change the package.
