gobject-introspection fails to build on OSX10.5.8

[wlmcderm@…]

gobject-introspection-0.10.6_0 fails to build. At the point where errors appear in the log (attached), the output is:

:info:build OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/Users/wes/.cache/g-ir-scanner/06e881d3462dd6af89e7002a4fe05682b10d8021'

The console output is:

The actual relevant error in the log seems to be:

:info:build OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/Users/wes/.cache/g-ir-scanner/06e881d3462dd6af89e7002a4fe05682b10d8021'

So this is probably a consequence of the new privilege-dropping code in MacPorts 2.0.

I believe it works now, but the was broken in the past leaving files owned by root. Can you try deleting the entire g-ir-scanner directory and try again?

Which g-ir-scanner directory? The build directory at: opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_gnome_gobject-introspection/
gobject-introspection/work/gobject-introspection-0.10.6 ?

If I run:

$port clean --all gobject-introspection (which deletes that directory, among others)

$port upgrade gobject-introspection

I get the same error.

Oh, I see, you must have meant the ~/.cache/g-ir-scanner

Deleting that and rebuilding gobject-introspection works.

Thanks!
