gv is linking against system x11 libraries

[jjstickel@…]

The port gv is linking against system x11 libraries, even though I am not using the system_x11 variant:

 $ otool -L /opt/local/bin/gv
/opt/local/bin/gv:
        /usr/X11R6/lib/libXinerama.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0)
        /opt/local/lib/libXaw3d.7.dylib (compatibility version 7.0.0, current version 7.0.0)
        /usr/X11R6/lib/libXpm.4.dylib (compatibility version 4.11.0, current version 4.11.0)
        /usr/X11R6/lib/libXmu.6.dylib (compatibility version 6.2.0, current version 6.2.0)
        /usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.6.dylib (compatibility version 6.0.0, current version 6.0.0)
        /usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.6.dylib (compatibility version 6.4.0, current version 6.4.0)
        /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.6.dylib (compatibility version 6.0.0, current version 6.0.0)
        /usr/X11R6/lib/libICE.6.dylib (compatibility version 6.3.0, current version 6.3.0)
        /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.6.dylib (compatibility version 6.2.0, current version 6.2.0)
        /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 88.3.11)
        /opt/local/lib/libz.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.2.3)
        /opt/local/lib/libbz2.1.0.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.4)
        /usr/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0)

resulting in a segfault / bus error:

$ gv

BTW, I am on Tiger (10.4.11).

The attached patch fixed this for me, although it should probably be modified to honor the system_x11 variant.

[MarcusCalhoun-Lopez (Marcus Calhoun-Lopez)]

It seems the problem is that the configure script looks in a series of directories for X11 and ${prefix} is not one of them.
Could we patch the configure script so that ${prefix}/include comes before /usr/X11/include in the ac_x_header_dirs variable?

I would try to develop a patch, but I am having some trouble installing Xaw3d, which is a dependency of gv.

[jeremyhu (Jeremy Huddleston Sequoia)]

This patch is not enough to fix the problem ... it will break people using +system_X11

You should probably do something like this:

        # AC_X_PATH blindly asks xmkmf where X11 is, and it always uses /usr/X11R6.
        # These next three lines should cause AC_X_PATH to let us setup our CPPFLAGS
        # and LDFLAGS without interference
        configure.args-append --x-include=${prefix}/include --x-lib=${prefix}/lib
        configure.cppflags-append -I${x11prefix}/include
        configure.ldflags-append  -L${x11prefix}/lib

Fixed in r46265

Hi!

I've just installed xfig and I'm very new to darwin ports. I'm getting exactly the same error, but I don't understand where those lines

# AC_X_PATH blindly asks xmkmf where X11 is, and it always uses /usr/X11R6. # These next three lines should cause AC_X_PATH to let us setup our CPPFLAGS # and LDFLAGS without interference configure.args-append --x-include=${prefix}/include --x-lib=${prefix}/lib configure.cppflags-append -I${x11prefix}/include configure.ldflags-append -L${x11prefix}/lib

should be added. I cannot find a file like trunk/dports/print/gv/Portfile.

Could someone help me with that?

Thank you!!

Fernando

I have installed gv as well and tried to include those lines in

/opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/ports/print/gv/Portfile

However, I still get the errors

Warning: No type converter registered for 'String' to 'InitialResourcesPersistent' conversion. Warning: No type converter registered for 'translations' to 'InitialResourcesPersistent' conversion.

when I try to run gv.

I suspect that you have some X11 library mixups. Since this bug is fixed and closed, you might try reporting your problem on the mailing lists to get some detailed help.

I tried to replace the xfig's patch-Imakefile by that other one suggested in #18250 and after that I tried to run xfig, but the errors were still there. I will report my problem on the mailing lists, but first I would like to know whether there is something else that I should be doing, but I'm not doing. For ex, I just replaced the old files by the new ones, with the pointed modifications and then tried to run xfig and gv again. Do I need to do sth else after modifying the files?

Thank you, Fernando.

Fernando: This bug is for xv... please goto the other bug to comment on xfig.

Yes, I commented on xfig, but the question about if I have to do sth else than changing the files is about gv, as I'm not sure whether the solution suggested here is only change the files or if I have to do something else than just manually changing the files. So, if you could help me with that, I would be grateful.

Fernando.

As mentioned earlier, gv is fixed in r46265 (22 hours ago). If it's not working for you, sync and try again.

[blue_wind_cwb-porto@…]

I'm very new to all this. What do you mean with sync?

[jeremyhu (Jeremy Huddleston Sequoia)]

'sudo port -v selfupdate' to get the latest changes

[blue_wind_cwb-porto@…]

I did it and kept having the same problem. So, I decided to use Fink and all worked fine and now I have gv.

Fernando.

[jeremyhu (Jeremy Huddleston Sequoia)]

Well chances are your mirror just wasn't sync'd with svn yet... try again later

[blue_wind_cwb-porto@…]

Ok, thanks for the hints.
