itk: tclIntDecls.h:322: error: expected ')' before '->' token

[csoong@…]

an error occured during build of itk
it is version 3.3 and utilizes tcl8.4.X
however, macport already installed tcl8.5.9 version.
is this leading to conflict?
i dont know.
Thanks!

Please use WikiFormatting so your posts are legible.

Note we already have #15154 and #27232 filed for build problems with itk relating to the tcl version number mismatch, though the error message in those tickets looks different from yours. The problem is we have no maintainer for the itk port, so nobody is looking after it. If you can figure out how to fix this problem, please let us know.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Has duplicate #29036.

I attached portfiles to bump itcl and itk to the latest and use tcl8.5. For the life of me I can't get the download to work on itcl. It uses special characters and I get get it to work. Can someone take a look please?

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

The problem is your change to the master_sites line. Simply don't change it; the existing master_sites are fine.

The port should also have "dist_subdir tcltk" added so the tcl distfile can be shared with the tcl port.

[markd@…]

I thought I tried that. Well, I'm out of time at the moment and have to run. Ryan if you have the time would you mind doing it?

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Sure: r77601

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

• r77601: update itcl
• r77602: update itk
