py27-astropy: Compiler specified by CC environment variable will fail to compile astropy

[shj.wallstrom@…]

I've been trying to install py27-astropy for days now but I get the following error:

Error: org.macports.build for port py27-astropy returned: command execution failed
Please see the log file for port py27-astropy for details: /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_python_py-astropy/py27-astropy/main.log

Checking this log file tells me (eventually):

:info:build Compiler specified by CC environment variable
:info:build                     (/usr/bin/llvm-gcc-4.2:i686-apple-darwin11-llvm-gcc-4.2 (GCC) 4.2.1 (Based on Apple Inc. build 5658) (LLVM build 2336.1.00)

:info:build                     You can do this, for example, by running:
:info:build 
:info:build                         CC=clang python setup.py <command>
:info:build 
:info:build                     where <command> is the command you ran.
:info:build 
:info:build Command failed:  cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_python_py-astropy/py27-astropy/work/astropy-1.0.4" && /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/python2.7 setup.py --no-user-cfg --offline --no-git build --use-system-cfitsio --use-system-expat --use-system-wcslib --use-system-erfa

from which I gather that the compiler clang is necessary. I did not appear to have this compiler, so I installed it via macports (clang-3.4), but still get the same error trying to install astropy. I cannot find any info about how to tell macports to use a different compiler here.

Has duplicate #48942.

Please attach the main.log file.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

So *llvm-gcc42 needs to be added to compiler.blacklist.

In 1714ea52ff5cf63fc5352b2f097d98a8cafa8413/macports-ports (master):

py-astropy: blacklist *llvm-gcc42

Closes: #48941
