texstudio @ 2.5 - new port

[m.matze@…]

Hello,

I would like to provide a port file for "texstudio". TexStudio is an LaTeX editor. The portfile and patches are attached. I would put it in the category "editors"

Port file

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Thanks!

You've coded the port to fetch from their Subversion repository revision 3379. This appears to be the 2.5 release. (2.5 was tagged in 3378 and 3379 just updates the web page to reference that version.) So is there any reason why we're not fetching from the 2.5 source tarball, which we would greatly prefer over fetching from Subversion?

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

The patch you included hardcodes the path /opt/local. MacPorts could be installed in any prefix; this needs to be reinplaced with the current value of ${prefix}.

By the way, unless the files are enormous, it's best to attach individual text files to the ticket so that they can be opened and read right here in the browser rather than having to download and decompress them.

I'm attaching a revised portfile and patch. It doesn't build for me; the error is:

error: unable to read PCH file: 'Is a directory'

I'll attach the log too.

I used the svn version and not the source code as I frequently build the Mac Version of texstudio and this is always based on the svn code as recommended from one of the programmers. There is no problem to change it to the source code snapshots.

I'll check it together with the programmers of texstudio and come back with a working file.

Thanks for the proposed changes. I tried your modified version and it worked well for me. I'll attached my log file for your information. Further comments about your error might take some days.

Log file of the port installation using the modified Portfile

What version of Xcode are you running?

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Your log shows you're on Lion and that the port was building using llvm-gcc-4.2. This says to me that you're probably using Xcode 4.0 or 4.1—or were when qt4-mac was installed—because as of Xcode 4.2 we use clang by default. I had tried blacklisting clang before and it didn't make a difference, but I had neglected to realize/remember that qmake does not respect the MacPorts compiler choice by default, and instead uses the compiler chosen at the time qt4-mac was built. I was able to build the port with llvm-gcc-4.2 after working around that problem. Please let the developers know that they need to work on making their software compile with clang. The port is committed in r98947.
