beanstalkd build failure in stdio.h, upstream fix available

[marcus@…]

When I try to install beanstalkd from latest macports on OS 10.7.1, I get this error:

:info:build make[1]: Entering directory `/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_sysutils_beanstalkd/beanstalkd/work/beanstalkd-1.4.6'

It looks like the error is in /usr/include/stdio.h rather than beanstalkd, however I've just rebuilt 538 ports (for Lion) without a single error, many of which will be using stdio.h, so I'm inclined to think it's how beanstalkd is using it.

I've seen ​an identical report from someone building beanstalkd via homebrew, suggesting it's down to beanstalk itself and not the build system.

Further searches led me to ​this discussion and ​an upstream fix in beanstalk, which I guess we don't have in macports. Can we have it please?

Thanks for the patch. I couldn't get it to patch cleanly using patch, but it sort-of worked with git apply. Even then, it created patch-dprint.diff at the same level as the Portfile instead of in the files folder, and failed to patch patch-configure.diff. I did this:

cd /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/ports/sysutils/beanstalkd
wget http://trac.macports.org/raw-attachment/ticket/31463/beanstalkd.diff
git apply beanstalkd.diff

Is this the result of a clash between diff formats?

Once I'd fixed things manually, beanstalkd built and installed perfectly, so thanks for that.

It must have been made with SVN, and the following command applies it pretty smoothly:

patch -p0 -i beanstalkd.diff
