gnucash @2.4.11_1 build failure -libpng14

[MasakiOita]

Updating gnucash failed to build due to the error concerning libpng14.

:info:build grep: /opt/local/lib/libpng14.la: No such file or directory
:info:build /opt/local/bin/gsed: can't read /opt/local/lib/libpng14.la: No such

The lines in the log that say "Skipping completed" show this was not a clean attempt. Please "sudo port clean gnucash" and try again and attach the new main.log if it fails again.

[MasakiOita]

Here's the new main.log.

Rebuilding aqbanking5-gtk did not change the situation. I have no idea about what package does depend on libpng14.la.

[MasakiOita]

I've finally found that the link option '-lgwengui-gtk2' (in the last command in main.log) caused the error on libpng14, so I did

$ sudo port -n upgrade --force gwenhywfar4-gtk

and now gnucash is upgraded successfully.

Oops, I thought I had revbumped gwenhywfar4 already, but apparently I didn't commit it. Done in r97662.

This did not fix this issue for me though. Intel iMac OS X 10.6.8. Attached are the (main3) logfile and ports installed list. Regards, J

You can try

$ sudo port uninstall --follow-dependents gwenhywfar4
$ sudo port install gnucash

At least here in my case it did successfully install gnucash

Sorry, I had a stale webkit-gtk version (1.2.7) due to some issue when upgrading to 1.6 in april. Removed my local webkit-gtk portfile and now GC installs fine. So this ticket can be closed again. Regards, J
