#23725 closed defect

libXext-1.1.1 is downloaded to libXext-1.0.99.4 directory — at Initial Version

Port: xorg-libXext

Description

I am trying to install libXext. I used the command "sudo port install xorg-libXext". This proceeds fairly well up to a point, then I receive the following error:

Error: Target org.macports.configure returned: configure failure: shell command " cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_x11_xorg-libXext/work/libXext-1.1.1" && ./configure --prefix=/opt/local " returned error 1 Command output: sh: line 0: cd: /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_x11_xorg-libXext/work/libXext-1.1.1: No such file or directory

When I look for the relevant directory, I find that port has created a directory called libXext-1.0.99.4, not libXext-1.1.1:

$ls /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_x11_xorg-libXext/work/

libXext-1.0.99.4

If I rename libXext-1.0.99.4 to libXext-1.1.1 and call "sudo port install xorg-libXext" again, it seems to complete successfully. However, I have not tested to see whether it has installed libXext 1.1.1 successfully, or libXext 1.0.99.4 masquerading as libXext 1.1.1.
