Error building tightvnc 1.3.9

[mf2k (Frank Schima)]

Mac OS X 10.5.6 Intel. Xcode 3.1.2.

I see the following build error for tightvnc:

--->  Building tightvnc

Unable to reproduce, on Mac OS X 10.5.6 Intel with Xcode 3.1.2 with MacPorts 1.7.1.

Have you used gcc_select to select a compiler other than the default gcc-4.0? If so, please re-select gcc-4.0, clean tightvnc and try again.

If that doesn't work, perhaps updating tightvnc 1.3.10 will help, which has been requested in #19412.

gcc_select does not have a -s option to show which version is being used. So i just set it to gcc40 and tried again. Same problem for me.

[mf2k (Frank Schima)]

I tried to build this port again recently and for whatever reason I get a different error like reported in ticket #20852. I posted my new error there, so I'm closing this ticket.

I still see this problem on 10.5.8 (this has been a problem for months on my system),

Try to install on 10.6 +universal ( port -d output)

Similar problem on Snow Leopard.

I had gcc_select set to gcc-mp-43. I changed it to gcc42 and gcc40, cleaned and rebuilt. Debug output attached.

[Russell-Jones-OxPhys (Russell Jones)]

built with gcc42

[Russell-Jones-OxPhys (Russell Jones)]

built with gcc40

[mf2k (Frank Schima)]

This is fixed for me as of tightvnc 1.3.10.

This has been reported again as #24746.
