Unison +aqua fails to build on the 64-bit system

[kiyoshi.coquser@…]

Unison aqua variant fails to build on the 64-bit system because it is not 64-bit clean.

I built minimal patch to fix this issue.

This patch and fixed ocaml (Ticket #21743) will make Unison +aqua also work on the 64-bit system.

NOTE:

1. This patch upgrades Unison from 2.27.57 to 2.32.52, and they CAN NOT synchronize files with each other.

To avoid the confusion about connection failure, It my be as well to create an new port with different name like "unison-2.32".

2. This is not the official patch. this issue will be fixed smarter way at the future version of Unison.

The attached changes seems to work for me.

[kiyoshi.coquser@…]

I re-built two unison ports for unison-2.27.157 and 2.32.52.

Aqua variant of them are 64-bit clean.

NOTE:

Unison-2.27.157 and unison-2.27.57 (current unison port version) can synchronize files each other.

Growl notification is comment outed.

Does the recent commit to ​Unison's svn r389 improve things? Perhaps a separate unison-devel port could build against this revision?

fetch.type        svn
svn.url           https://webdav.seas.upenn.edu/svn/unison/trunk/
svn.tag           389
worksrcdir        trunk

[kiyoshi.coquser@…]

Please tell me what is a problem about the patches I proposed?

I will try to fix it.

Discommunication between unison-2.27.x and unison-2.32.x is not a issue.

Unision is implemented as such a way.

Please read the description around the keywords "unexpected header" on the page:

​http://alliance.seas.upenn.edu/~bcpierce/wiki/index.php?n=Main.UnisonFAQTroubleshooting

Anyway, I will try to build unison-devel port from svn latest one.

unison-devel port from Unison ​r390

The aqua variants don't seem to build for either 389 or 390. Should I just commit only the command line version?

[kiyoshi.coquser@…]

Committing command line version of r390 is good idea, I think.

I am now trying to build a 64-bit support patch for r390, but It will take a bit more time.

So, please commit command line version, no need to care my try.

[kiyoshi.coquser@…]

64-bit version of unison ​r390 with +aqua (macnew09) is now work on Snow Leopard.

My patch is not well tested, so please use it carefully.

NOTE: The icon of Unison.app looks just like a icon of /System/Library/Core Services/File Sync.app. I am afraid that it may infringe a copyright.

I'm sorry, previous archive was composed from my working copy with a bug. Please try new one.

This port is no longer maintained. See #44276.

[MarcusCalhoun-Lopez (Marcus Calhoun-Lopez)]

The Unison port has undergone ​significant changes since this bug report was reported.
64-bit builds no longer seem to be a problem.
If this is not the case, please feel free to reopen.
