httrack runtime dyld failure

[dwightkelly (Dwight Kelly)]

When attempting to run httrack @3.47.23 I get the following error message

$ httrack http://www.google.com google -v

dyld: lazy symbol binding failed: Symbol not found: _strndup
  Referenced from: /opt/local/lib/libhttrack.2.dylib

In the future, please use WikiFormatting, and Cc the port maintainers (port info --maintainers httrack).

What OS are you running on? afaik strndup was only added to the darwin C library as of 10.7, so if you are using an older OS, it will not be present. The source for the implementation of strndup function in the most recent darwin libc can be found here: ​http://opensource.apple.com/source/Libc/Libc-997.1.1/string/FreeBSD/strndup.c

10.6.8. There's a static strdup function in the httrack sources

This was updated to version 3.48.3 in r119870. Is this still a problem for you? It works for me on Mavericks. Re-open the ticket if so.

Still happens for me. I have HTTrack version 3.48-3 and OS X 10.9.5.

Similar problem persists or developed in HTTrack 3.48-3 on OS X 10.10.3

I hope this is the right place, even though it pertains to "libiconv_open":

The same problem persist on OSX 10.11.1 - HTTrack 3.48.3 - port 2.3.4 :

Cc Me! The error still occurs on El Capitan 10.11.6 with httrack 3.48-3.

It does not necessarily occur immediately after calling the command, but after it has already retrieved some pages.

[kurthindenburg (Kurt Hindenburg)]

Can you try the new version and let us know if this issue persists.

[detlevd (Detlev Droege)]

Still the same :-( . On Sierra 10.12.6 with the new httrack 3.49:

$ port installed httrack
The following ports are currently installed:
  httrack @3.49.2_0 (active)

No stack trace available on this OS :(

This occurs after having transfered approx. 110 files, totaling ~50 MB.

[kurthindenburg (Kurt Hindenburg)]

Do you have a small site that show this error?

[mf2k (Frank Schima)]

otool shows that it is not linking to libiconv at all.

$ otool -L /opt/local/lib/libhttrack.2.dylib

Looking at ./configure --help, I don't see an obvious way to point it to Macports libiconv.

[mf2k (Frank Schima)]

There is a ​patch from Cygwin.

[mf2k (Frank Schima)]

In dd75e4876dae5937a629221af2044aa7245ab5c9/macports-ports:

httrack: Link with libiconv
