MacVim @7.3.snapshot54 build fails

[larryv (Lawrence Velázquez)]

Upgrading from MacVim @7.3.snapshot53+cscope+huge to @7.3.snapshot54+cscope+huge fails during the build phase with the following output. I receive the same failure after uninstalling, cleaning, and reinstalling, and also after attempting to install vanilla MacVim-7.3snapshot54.

The log seems to go to hell at this point (edited for brevity, see attached log file for actual output):

followed by the usual cascading make and port errors.

I'm using MacPorts 1.9.1 on Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.4 (10F569). The specified log file is attached.

Apologies, I neglected to cc the maintainer, raimue@….

I am unable to reproduce this issue, even with +cscope+huge. I can't see any real error message in the log file. I guess xcodebuild does not print them and I don't know if it leaves a build log file somewhere in work/MacVim/src/MacVim/build/?

I am using Xcode 3.2.3, I will try if this might be a problem with 3.2.4 only:

$ xcodebuild -version
Xcode 3.2.3
Component versions: DevToolsCore-1691.0; DevToolsSupport-1591.0
BuildVersion: 10M2262

Replying to raimue@…:

This is my xcodebuild output, if it's of any use.

% xcodebuild -version
Xcode 3.2.4
Component versions: DevToolsCore-1705.0; DevToolsSupport-1591.0
BuildVersion: 10M2309

Got the same error as larry (with the default variant). In particular

error: one or more PCH files were found, but they were invalid
error: use -Winvalid-pch for more information

It seems that the PCH file was left by some older compilation in the global cache directory. So I changed the location of the precompiled headers using the above patch and it now compiles and runs for me.

Cc Me!

[raimue (Rainer Müller)]

Interesting. Where does Xcode store these files normally? Could it be, that it does compare timestamps of headers and pre-compiled files? So if you build the older version after the new version was released (timestamp in tarball at release time), it considers them to be newer.

Sounds like it might be a good idea to add this to the xcode port group.

[raimue (Rainer Müller)]

I found additional information in the ​Mac OS X Reference Library. Sounds like it might be a good idea to change ​CACHE_ROOT to a temporary location.

Deleting the files in /var/folders/ allowed me to install MacVim @7.3.snapshot55_0+cscope.

[raimue (Rainer Müller)]

Fixed in r72421.

Fixed in r72421.

Just confirming that the build now works for me. Thanks!
