@takeshi: Can you comment on why mesa was removed as a dependency in r67833? It was added in r67185 to fix #24739.

[raimue@…]

If -framework OpenGL is intended to use the Apple OpenGL framework, then the includes need to read OpenGL instead of just GL.

Also for -framework OpenGL -framework Accelerate, did you ensure that the configure script will not pick up mesa or atlas from MacPorts instead?

Cc Me!

Has duplicate #27924.

Since Takeshi isn't responding about why the mesa dependency was removed, and since the port does not build without mesa present, and does link with mesa's libraries, I re-added the mesa dependency in r74992.

Grass 6.4RC_ is outdated, to be replaced by the 6.4 official version. I'm working on a way to use the Apple OpenGL framework on the 6.4 version, but it is still a bit remote, since I am quite busy elsewhere at this time. I hope to get something useful by the end of the month.

[ryandesign@…]

In r74992 I also updated the port to 6.4.0 final.

Nice move! Thanks a lot. That renders my work less urgent. I'll nonetheless try to get rid of that Mesa dependency in favor of the MacOS OpenGL framework. Thanks again!
