Description (last modified by ryandesign@…) (diff)
I have problem in upgrading dbus-glib 0.80 to 0.86.
Macbook 2.16G mid2007 10.5.8
I consulted this problem in a mailing list and Ryan suggested as follows:
DEBUG: new fully merged portvariants: universal +
Ok, you're building universal.
---> Configuring dbus-glib for architecture ppc
checking for BSD- or MS-compatible name lister (nm)... no
---> Configuring dbus-glib for architecture i386
checking for BSD- or MS-compatible name lister (nm)... /usr/bin/nm -p
checking the name lister (/usr/bin/nm -p) interface... BSD nm
And when doing the ppc part, it couldn't figure out where the "nm" command is (while for the i386 part it could).
---> Building dbus-glib for architecture ppc
../libtool: eval: line 941: syntax error near unexpected token `|'
You'll probably find that on line 941 of the libtool, it uses the $NM variable between two pipes; since the $NM variable is empty here, that makes two pipes in a row, which is a syntax error.
We've seen this several times before in several other ports that use the muniversal portgroup, so we just have to apply the same fix to the dbus-glib port.

For example, this same problem was solved in the pango port in r50606. So this same fix could presumably be applied to dbus-glib. (Ignore the lines about ac_cv_header_Carbon_Carbon_h which were specific to pango.)

Defining NM in the port file works. Just test a build. Also I found gtk2 to be affected by the same issue. The patch I made for dbus-glib port file

Replying to mcl_guard-netmail@…:
59a60,62
set merger_configure_env(ppc) "NM='/usr/bin/nm -p'" set merger_configure_env(ppc64) "NM='/usr/bin/nm -p'"
65c68,71 < } else { ---
} else {
set merger_configure_env(i386) "NM='/usr/bin/nm -p'" set merger_configure_env(x86_64) "NM='/usr/bin/nm -p'"
This patch worked for me.
Now I have 0.86. Thanks.
