asymptote port fails

[schlenkwad@…]

The port of asymptote fails. I am running under Lion.

The message is:

Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.

Please attach the entire main.log file.

The log file contents you're showing above are for the texinfo port, not for the asymptote port.

this is the file referred to in terminal

This is what I entered in terminal:

Daves-Macbook:asymptote dschlenkwad$ sudo port install asymptotePassword:---> Computing dependencies for asymptote ---> Building asymptote Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command failed (see log for details) Log for asymptote is at: /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_graphics_asymptote/asymptote/main.log Error: Status 1 encountered during processing. To report a bug, see <​http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets>

The attached main.log is the file referred to by the above message.

Has duplicate #31801.

[raphael@…]

The relevant error in your log is:

:info:build ../asy -dir ../base -config "" -render=0 -f pdf -noprc Bode.asy
:info:build make[1]: *** [Bode.pdf] Segmentation fault: 11

This problem is basically the same as in #31079. Asymptote must be compiled with gcc-4.2, but the Makefile is not UsingTheRightCompiler.

I can reproduce your problem here with Xcode 4.2 and Mac OS X 10.6.8. The attached patch fixes the problem for me. Maintainer, may I commit it?

[raphael@…]

Cc Me!

[raphael@…]

Replying to raphael@…:

Asymptote must be compiled with gcc-4.2, but the Makefile is not UsingTheRightCompiler.

Well, the problem is actually that configure.cxx is not set. A modified patch is in the attachment.

[raphael@…]

As long as the patch is not committed yet, you can use the following workaround to install asymptote:

sudo port clean asymptote
sudo port install asymptote configure.cxx=/opt/local/bin/g++-apple-4.2

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!

That did the trick.

Maintainer timeout. Fixed in r86738.
