Leopard environment variable issue remains

Description

The Leopard environment variable issue remains even after r36719 and r36722 which were supposed to fix it. The following test is with MacPorts base @39006 on Mac OS X 10.5.4 with Xcode 3.1 on Intel.

Make sure that nmap and py25-numpy are not installed. Then try to install umit, which depends on both.

Cleaning py25-numpy and trying again allows it to proceed.

There are three places where array unset env are used:

Perhaps a good fix for #16010 would fix this as well? I didn't provide a patch there since I wasn't sure if moving the package require Pextlib 1.0 before the environment handling is a good idea, or if the env handling should be moved after the package require bits, or something else entirely.

Bugs in Leopard's Tcl are best fixed by Apple, all MacPorts can hope for is workarounds... But it does seem like more of those are needed, since "unset env" is broken and needs working around everywhere.

Replying to blb@macports.org:

Anders, you're awesome. That seems to fix it.

My remaining concern is that everywhere we want to unset environment variables now, we have to call two procedures. Can there be a single procedure that takes care of everything we need? Do we still need "array unset env" now that we have "unsetenv"? If we do still need both, then it would be good to have a wrapper function which we can call which itself calls both of those.

Bryan, you're awesome too, for the fix suggested in #16010 and for finding where all the issue needed to be fixed. :)

comment:8 in reply to:  6 Changed 16 years ago by afb@…

Thank you. :-)

We could make an "array_unset_env" wrapper, to call both of them in sequence.

comment:9 Changed 16 years ago by blb@…

Just note that the 'array unset env' is all that should be needed, but until Apple fixes their @%^$, both are needed. We could do a wrapper like afb says, but then again it'd only be needed until tclsh is fixed. On the other hand, it could be 10.6 that fixes it...

comment:10 Changed 16 years ago by afb@…

And of course, having to remember to type "array_unset_env" instead of "array unset env" isn't much easier than remembering to call unsetenv. And since unsetenv requires pextlib to be loaded first, combining the two into a wrapper isn't possible for all uses either. So I think we'll avoid the whole wrapper idea.

comment:11 Changed 15 years ago by afb@…

Still not fixed in http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/10.5.5/tcl-64/.

Probably waiting for Snow Leopard, so not likely to see any fixes in Leopard...

Can you reproduce this since r41650?

comment:13 Changed 15 years ago by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)

Am currently testing.

Resolution: fixed
Status: newclosed

No problem now! Must've been fixed by the recent improvements.
