ncursesw-5.6 fails to build with "No awk program found" when gawk built as part of dependencies

Description

This is on a new Leopard install, with a freshly installed MacPorts-1.6.0 from the dmg, selfupdated and synced. No ports installed.

While trying to install subversion-javahlbindings, gawk was built, but then ncurses fails at configure, unable to find awk. However, a subsequent attempt to build ncursesw explicitly works fine. I left the milestone blank because I don't know if this is a "base bug" or a port-specific issue.

I'm not sure what I meant by the "gawk" comment -- I must have not read the spew properly. However, the bug did happen, in that ncursesw failed to build as part of the dependency chain, but later did build successfully.

comment:2 Changed 16 years ago by afb@…

Yeah, it would be interesting to know why it skipped over /usr/bin/awk.

comment:3 Changed 16 years ago by afb@…

This was previously reported in #13053

comment:4 Changed 16 years ago by jay macports@…

The spew had

checking for awk... (cached) no

so is it possible that the configure step is picking up cached values somehow? Either the distribution incorrectly contains config.cache, or the configure command is invoked in such a way that it's picked up?
