Error: Processing of port kde4-kile failed

It looks like poppler needs to be altered to work. with Okular (and therefore Kile)

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

The error message seems pretty clear: "Poppler must be installed with +qt4 and +quartz variants". Please install poppler with those variants to fix the problem.

When I tell ports to install kile, why isn't the dependency resolution figuring out the need to use +qt4 or +quartz and instead installing poppler without either of these options?

[mf2k (Frank Schima)]

Because thats #126.

[amadeus24]

I installed poppler with +qt4 and +quartz variants, but receiving same message.
Cleaned all ports and tried again to install okular. Port still complain about poppler which should be installed with +qt4 and +quartz variants. Attached my main.log.

[NicosPavlov]

The installed version is *not* poppler +qt4 +quartz. In the main.log file, it is noted:

poppler 0.20.5_0 exists in the ports tree
poppler 0.20.5_0 is the latest installed
poppler 0.20.5_0 is active

while it should be:

poppler 0.20.5_0 exists in the ports tree
poppler 0.20.5_0 +qt4+quartz is the latest installed
poppler 0.20.5_0 +qt4+quartz is active

The install therefore stops as before since the port is not installed with proper variants. This should be seen also when running

port installed poppler

Hi folks, i get actually the same error at Lion with the actual macports 2.1.3:

Why cant macports resolve the needed dependencies ?

Greetings sbo

When MacPorts encounters the poppler error, it stops processing dependencies. Please run

sudo port clean okular
sudo port install poppler +qt4 +quartz
sudo port install okular

hmm, i used a clean and fresh installation of macports, so i have a problem with this stati "invalid" ... this is a error in my opinion because macports cant resolve in this case dependencies like apt. So i suggest this ERROR should be fixed.

MacPorts can resolve dependencies just fine. What it can’t do is resolve dependencies on variants. (Last time I checked, apt does not have anything analogous to variants.) Ticket #126 is one of our oldest tickets, and I frankly don’t think it will ever be fixed, which is why I closed it after 10 years.

I’ll change the resolution to something more appropriate, if you’d like.
