iStumbler +use_source does not compile on a case sensitive FS

[Greisby (Greisberger Christophe)]

The use_source variant does not compile on my system:

• OS: Snow Leopard 10.6.8
• Arch: x86_64
• FS: case sensitive
• XCode: 4.0.2

From what I saw in the log file, I think that it's a case sensitivity problem:

:info:destroot /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_aqua_istumbler/istumbler/work/iStumbler/Plugins/AirPort/AirPort.pch:6:28: error: Plugins/Plugins.h: No such file or directory

Is there a mechanism in macports to be able to build a port in a temporary case insensitive disk image?

Replying to greisberger@…:

The use_source variant does not compile on my system:

I don't believe that variant works on anybody's system. Read its description:

$ port variants istumbler
istumbler has the variants:
   universal
[+]use_binary: Install from binary distribution
     * conflicts with use_source
   use_source: Build from source (does not work)
     * conflicts with use_binary

Though you do indeed appear to be experiencing case-sensitivity issues, above and beyond the issues everybody else would be experiencing.

Actually I tried to build it now (on my case-insensitive filesystem) and the build allegedly succeeded, though I saw a lot of plistutil errors fly by.

Is there a mechanism in macports to be able to build a port in a temporary case insensitive disk image?

No.
