PovRay not installing... Apparently thread-local storage unsupported

[jumasoal@…]

Hi all! I have been trying to upgrade povray, but I can not find why is not possible. I also uninstalled the previous version, but the installation also fails. Any help is quite appreciated.

The first line in which I can see an error is this:

:info:build ../../source/backend/support/task.h:187: error: thread-local storage not supported for this target

This is what shows up in the log file:

Remember to use WikiFormatting when writing in Trac and to fill in the Port field.

Thanks, I am new, I'll do that for the next post =) Finally after your comment and more surfing, I have installed povray. The original post for fixing is this:

​http://news.povray.org/povray.beta-test/thread/%3Cweb.4d091fcd62af24a47800993b0%40news.povray.org%3E/?mtop=363443&moff=10

This is what one has to do (borrowed from the above link):

In vfe/unix/syspovconfig.h remove lines 174-177 (#defines regarding THREAD_LOCAL_PTR)

In vfe/unix/vfeplatform.h add #include <sys/types.h> before #include <boost/shared_ptr.hpp>

In vfe/vfesession.h add #include <sys/types.h> before #include <queue>

In source/base/image/image.cpp replace all occurrences of lseek64 with lseek

Actually only the first action is needed in the current port. The others I didn't do them. I do not really know how the performance of povray is affected, but it compiles. I made the changes by hand since I don't know how to implement patches to the ports. If anyone can do this, would be great.

Thanks!

Proposal of a patch to the Portfile to allow compilation under Mac OS 10.6

Thanks! I attached to this ticket a patch to perform the first action and the corresponding modification to the Portfile. This is probably just a quick and dirty solution (see #36172) but at least the port compiles under Mac OS 10.6 without further change.
