Ticket #28220 (closed defect: fixed)

Opened 2 years ago

Last modified 22 months ago

p5-net-libidn 0.12_0 failed to find libidn

Reported by: Lars.Rasmusson@… Owned by: mni@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 1.9.2
Keywords: haspatch Cc: ryandesign@…
Port: p5-net-libidn

Description (last modified by macsforever2000@…) (diff)

To build p5-net-libidn, one must first create the make file from Makefile.PL

When I tried to install the latest version, 0.12_0, the Makefile that was created didn't pick up the correct settings from the $libdir and $incdir which caused the linking to fail because it tried to link with the standard os x libraries.

The command that failed was the

 cd <workdir> && /opt/local/bin/perl Makefile.PL INSTALLDIRS=vendor

The "perl Makefile.PL" command can take the arguments --with-libidn and --with-libidn-inc and I was able to use them to set the correct paths,

 cd <workdir> && /opt/local/bin/perl Makefile.PL --with-libidn=/opt/local/lib --with-libidn-inc=/opt/local/include

but there is probably a better way to solve that. Perhaps the correct paths could/should be picked up automatically - but for some reason they weren't.

I just wanted to file this as a bug in case someone else has a problem with it.

  • Summary changed from failed to build p5-net-libidn 0.12_0 to p5-net-libidn 0.12_0 failed to find libidn

Curious, it builds fine for me without the patch. But a duplicate #30560 has been filed so apparently it still affects some users.

  • Status changed from new to closed
  • Resolution set to fixed

In #30560 we explored that the problem may only occur with clang, and I committed a fix in r81637.
