Component: ports Version: 2.3.1

Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))

Just got a new MacBook Air for work. It is running OSX 10.9.4.

I tried to install various packages which failed due to gnutls problem. I did a "port clean gnutls" followed by "port install gnutls" and got:

The log says:

:info:configure nawk: syntax error at source line 1 source file ./confqlsb2a/subs.awk
:info:configure  context is
:info:configure          >>> BEGIN <<<  {
:info:configure nawk: bailing out at source line 1105

Many ports fail to configure when nawk is installed but gawk is not installed. nawk doesn't seem to be a very competent awk implementation... Please either install gawk or uninstall nawk. We should add conflicts_build nawk to this port, as we've done to many other ports already.

You can also build in trace mode, using sudo port -t install gnutls, to work around this issue.

comment:4 Changed 10 years ago by dhelrod@…

That works! It is amazing the number of ports that depend on gnutls.

Thank you! David

Summary: Failed to install gnutlsgnutls fails to build when nawk is installed

We should use the conflicts_build PortGroup and add a build-time conflict with nawk.

comment:6 Changed 10 years ago by danielluke (Daniel J. Luke)

or maybe force the build to use system awk? (like we do for apr).
