qt3-mac fails to build

[dented42@…]

qt3-mac appears to reject a computer running leopard, although the changes seem to be deeper then that, as when I forced the configure file to believe I was running tiger, it still failed.

[mf2k (Frank Schima)]

Assigning to maintainer. I see this issue too.

[blair (Blair Zajac)]

Please supply the output from the command that's failing, with sufficient context to see what's going on.

[mf2k (Frank Schima)]

Here's what I see. Let me know if you want more detail.

[blair (Blair Zajac)]

I don't have any cycles to look at this, but if you supply a patch then I can put it in the Port.

You may also want to Google around for patches that already fix this for 10.5. I'm sure somebody has solved it.

If you supply a patch, please link the URL where you got it from.

Thanks, Blair

Additional patch file for leopard

[cedayiv@…]

I've attached a patch file that fixes the problem for me. It is based on the one used for fink, found here: ​http://fink.cvs.sourceforge.net/*checkout*/fink/dists/10.4/unstable/main/finkinfo/graphics/qt3mac.patch2

Of course, one must also add the patch in the Portfile so it gets used. Hope this helps!

[cedayiv@…]

FYI: I do still get a warning when installing, but I don't think it has anything to do with the patch that I attached:

I have tried both the patch-leopard and qt3mac.patch2 patches (separately) and I still get a failure message that this version of OS X (10.5) is not supported. Is there anything else I can do? Thanks.

The qt3mac.patch2 won't work for you because it is designed for fink. You should use patch-leopard which is the same thing but adapted for MacPorts. Don't forget to add the patch to the list of patches in your Portfile, or it won't be used. The command is: sudo port edit qt3-mac

There are two lines in there that need be edited to look like shown below. On the first line you just have to add the backslash at the end. Then add the second line right after it:

patch-mkspecs-qmake.conf \
patch-leopard

Thanks for the help. I got a little farther, but I get these errors now:

Do I need to install something else before I can install qt3-mac?

Thanks.

[cedayiv@…]

Hmm, I'm afraid I can't help with that one. The patch-leopard was all I needed to get it to compile and install.

[miranda@…]

It worked after I uninstalled qt3 which I had installed in a desperate attempt to get the libqt...dylib libraries.

Unfortunately the program which I am trying to run that uses the library says it's for the wrong architecture. Could that have something to do with the patch I had to apply?

[janp@…]

I've made the change to the portfile but now it's telling me it can't find the patch do I need to dowload it and put it somewhere in the build directory?

You definitely need to download it, but I don't remember where it goes... it goes wherever the patches go. ;)

Try searching your system for one of the other patches and put it in the same place:

find / -name patch-mkspecs-qmake.conf

[mf2k (Frank Schima)]

You put it in the directory named "files" where the portfile resides.

Thanks it seems to build OK now but I get warning messages ---> Staging qt3-mac into destroot Warning: violation by /opt/local/translations Warning: qt3-mac violates the layout of the ports-filesystems!

This appears to be a duplicate of #13208.

This is not a qt3-mac problem. You should open a new ticket against the qucs port.
