cairo: LLVM ERROR: Cannot yet select: 0x103896c10

[robert@…]

In the process of installing OpenNI, I needed to install MacPorts and then doxygen and graphviz. Both of those failed when reaching the install Cairo step.

Error: Failed to install cairo
Log for cairo is at: /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_graphics_cairo/cairo/main.log
Error: The following dependencies were not installed: graphviz libLASi pango cairo urw-fonts xorg-libXaw groff psutils xorg-libXmu
Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.

Tried 'port uninstall cairo'
Tried 'port clean cairo'

What other information can I provide? Thank you.

Provide the main.log file please. And remember to use WikiFormatting.

I ran into the same issue this morning after upgrading to macports 2.0.0.

I could circumvent the problem by forcing macports to use gcc-4.2 instead of llvm:

install cairo +no_x11+quartz configure.compiler=gcc-4.2

Considering that this trick works and the output in main.log, I suspect it may be due to a bug in the llvm linker that is being used

I'm using XCode 4.0.2 on Snow Leopard: Robert are you by any chance using XCode 4.1 on Lion?

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Robert, the main.log you attached is incomplete. Please clean cairo and try again, and if it fails again attach the complete main.log.

I am not using Xcode 4 yet so I have not yet experienced what happens for cairo with llvm. There have been other bug reports, and I thought we had fixed things already. Try using clang instead of llvm-gcc-4.2. If that doesn't work, try using gcc-4.2.

[robert@…]

I went ahead and attached the main.log after doing a clean and attempted a reinstall.

I then tried the gcc-4.2 route and it installed fine. Thank you!

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Yes, but does clang work? If clang works we want to use that instead of gcc-4.2.

[Tom.Schoonjans@…]

Things just got weirder...

Until now I've tried everything on my Macbook Pro. I just tried it on my MacPro which has the same version of OS X, XCode and Macports and cairo builds fine with llvm-gcc-4.2... I've got no clue what's going on here...

Clang on my MacBook Pro doesn't work though...

[paolomainardi@…]

I confirm the bug on snow leopard (with all the last updates done) and macports 2.0, macbook 6.1.

The problem solved using gcc-4.2 as suggested by Tom.Schoonjans@… insted of llvm.

Replying to Tom.Schoonjans@…:

Clang on my MacBook Pro doesn't work though...

Why not? What happens? Attach a log please.

[Tom.Schoonjans@…]

Sorry... clang resulted in the same LLVM ERROR. Don't have the log anymore though since I upgraded to Lion on my MacBook Pro in the meantime.

Cairo built without problems on Lion with Xcode 4.1 by the way. Probably the bug is in the llvm version that ships with Xcode 4.0

Thanks, r81651 addresses this. If not, please re-open the ticket.
