graphviz: build fails when ApplicationServices framework is damaged

[jinlei.phys@…]

when I was installed graphviz, the following errors happened

sudo port install graphviz

Thanks for the ticket. In the future, please Cc any port maintainers, and use WikiFormatting in your ticket descriptions.

The log says:

:info:build In file included from gvplugin_quartz.c:20:
:info:build ./gvplugin_quartz.h:22:10: fatal error: 'ApplicationServices/ApplicationServices.h' file not found
:info:build #include <ApplicationServices/ApplicationServices.h>
:info:build          ^

ApplicationServices is a standard and essential part of OS X. Does /System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework exist? If not, restore it from your backups.

yes, I think the /System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework exist.

bash-3.2# cd /System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework
bash-3.2# ls
ApplicationServices	Resources
Frameworks		Versions
bash-3.2# pwd
/System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework

You're missing the Headers directory, which is consistent with the error message that Graphviz couldn't find the ApplicationServices.h header:

$ cd /System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework
$ ls
ApplicationServices	Frameworks		Headers			Resources		Versions

Please restore it from your backups.

Thank you for your reply.... But the problem is I don't have the backups.....

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Headers is supposed to be a symlink to the Headers directory inside Versions/Current. So if only the symlink is missing, you could recreate it:

$ cd /System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework
$ sudo ln -s Versions/Current/Headers Headers

If that doesn't work, reinstall OS X; that should reinstall a correct ApplicationServices framework, and repair any other components of your OS that might be similarly damaged.

Thank you. I think my Headers file is missing

kintekiMacBook-Pro:~ jinlei$ cd /System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework
kintekiMacBook-Pro:ApplicationServices.framework jinlei$ cd Versions/Current/
kintekiMacBook-Pro:Current jinlei$ ls
ApplicationServices	Resources
Frameworks		_CodeSignature
kintekiMacBook-Pro:Current jinlei$ 

But I really don't want to reinstall OS X, Could you give me your Headers file and I use the command ?

sudo ln -s Versions/Current/Headers Headers

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

/System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Versions/A/Headers from 10.8.2

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

It's a folder, not a file. I've attached it to this ticket. Download, unzip, move it to /System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Versions/A/Headers.

I think the ApplicationServices.h missing problem is solved. But it remind me there is another problem...

:info:build /System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Headers/ApplicationServices.h:24:10: fatal error: 'CoreServices/CoreServices.h' file not found

Why there are so many missing files in my computer? are there some software that I haven't installed cause this problem?

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

I don't know why. The simplest fix will be to reinstall the OS. This should not adversely affect any of your user files.

% pkgutil --file-info /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Headers/CoreServices.h
volume: /
path: /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Headers/CoreServices.h

pkgid: com.apple.pkg.DevSDKLeo
pkg-version: 4.0.0.9000000000.1.1306847324
install-time: 1359631277
uid: 0
gid: 0
mode: 644

So try reinstalling/upgrading the Xcode command line tools.
