orbit2 fails to install universal when libidl is not universal

Reported by: dershow Owned by: macports-tickets@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.0.3
Keywords: Cc: ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)
Port: orbit2

Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))

I have orbit2 installed. I just tried to upgrade wine-devel. It seems that it now requires universal builds of libraries. No problem, the upgrade causes orbit2 to attempt to rebuild universal, I believe. But, that upgrade fails. So, I have already installed:

  orbit2 @2.14.19_0 (active)

My upgrade leads to this:

I figured out the fix. The problem was libidl was not built universal, and orbit2 didn't "know". So the fix was first to do:

sudo port install libidl +universal

Then the upgrade of orbit2 went fine.

Summary: orbit2 fails to upgradeorbit2 fails to install universal when libidl is not universal

wine is i386 only. If your processor is x86_64 (most Intel Macs are), then yes, all wine dependencies must be installed universal. This is nothing new; it has always been this way.

MacPorts should have known to upgrade libidl to universal, since it is a declared dependency of orbit2. The only reason I can think of why this wouldn't have happened is if you had originally installed libidl with a MacPorts version older than 1.9 (which is possible, since libidl was last updated two months before MacPorts 1.9 was released).

I made a minor change to libidl in r85340 to force it to rebuild, which should fix the problem for anyone else experiencing it.
