The latest GNU Prolog unstable version compiles fine on Snow Leopard but you might need to run "autoconf" in the "src" directory first.

See #26503.

Cc reporter of dup #29030.

Can someone please commit #28608, which updated gprolog-devel to the latest GNU Prolog development version.

Can someone close this ticket? GNU Prolog cannot be compiled for 64 bits. This is not something that can be "fixed" in a portfile.

It's worth mentioning that the Mac package at  http://www.gprolog.org/#download works just fine.

Replying to andrew.pennebaker@…:

It's worth mentioning that the Mac package at  http://www.gprolog.org/#download works just fine.

I known. *I* built it. But I built in on *Leopard*, not Snow Leopard. From your original description of the problem on this ticket: "gprolog can't compile on Snow Leopard due to some compiler options". Note that you can download a binary installer that I built for the latest GNU Prolog 1.4.0 beta version from the GNU Prolog web site. This installer was built on Snow Leopard using MacPorts. GNU Prolog 1.4.0 contains the necessary support that is missing on 1.3.1. Or simply use the gprolog-devel port instead.

[andrew.pennebaker@…]

Thanks very much for the installer.

Could that developer version become a stable version?

[pmoura@…]

GNU Prolog 1.4.0, according to its developer, is expected to be released in the near future. When that happens, I will update the "gprolog" portfile.

[ryandesign@…]

Now that gprolog has been updated to 1.4.0 in r79938, can the platform darwin 10 block be deleted? When I tried it, the port built fine for me for i386 on a 64-bit Snow Leopard machine.

[pmoura@…]

From the GNU Prolog 1.4.0 release notes:

• fix compilation problem under Mac OS X Snow Leopard (force 32-bits mode)

Thus, it's safe to delete that block.
