BUG: libidl-0.8.7 fails to build on Intel

[chris@…]

After configuring correctly, libidl-0.8.7 fails to build on Intel (10.4.8). Error messages as follows:

--->  Building libidl with target all
DEBUG: Executing com.apple.build (libidl)

Please give us the output of these commands: which bison bison -V

[chris@…]

That caught it:

$ which bison
/opt/local/bin/bison
$ bison -V
dyld: Library not loaded: /opt/local/lib/libintl.3.dylib
  Referenced from: /opt/local/bin/bison
  Reason: image not found
Trace/BPT trap

Had bison 2.2_0 installed, but it appears libintl was upgraded from 3 to 8 and bison hadn't been recompiled. After re-building bison via port -f upgrade bison, libidl-0.8.7 compiles fine.

Great. Closing.
