py27-cairo: cairo must be installed with +x11 and without +quartz

py27-cairo produces the following error message when building:

Have you tried installing with -x11?

[chicagotripp (Altoine Barker)]

Replying to jmr@…:

Have you tried installing with -x11?

Please, excuse my delay. I had to wait until I was back to my computer. I cleaned all ports:

port clean installed

Then, I uninstalled all ports:

port -fp uninstall installed

Next, I removed macports:

sudo rm -rf     /opt/local     /Applications/DarwinPorts     /Applications/MacPorts     /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.*     /Library/Receipts/DarwinPorts*.pkg     /Library/Receipts/MacPorts*.pkg     /Library/StartupItems/DarwinPortsStartup     /Library/Tcl/darwinports1.0     /Library/Tcl/macports1.0     ~/.macports

I reinstalled and this time installed gimp with the animation and quartz variants. Everything installed this time with little problem. (i.e. gegl was needed by gimp-html-en so I installed that and then cleaned gimp-html-en port tree:

port clean gimp-html-en

This allowed gimp-html-en to install without any errors then I reran my original port command:

port inatll gimp +animation +quartz

Everything installed without incident. I checked cairo with port info and it showed:

cairo @1.12.14_0+quartz+x11 (active)

This was interesting since my original report py27-cairo complained about cairo being installed with both the variants x11 and quartz together. So, I checked py27-cairo with port info and it showed:

py27-cairo @1.10.0_1 (active)

No more problem. I guess this ticket can be closed. I think there is an issue but I believe it to be with base not clearing receipts for some ports when you uninstall and later another port depends on that port and throws up an error. Thank you for your help.

Has duplicate #39297. It's unexpected that py-cairo mandates that "cairo must be installed with +x11 and without +quartz". Why does this requirement exist? Why must cairo's quartz variant be disabled? The cairo port has had no problem installing with both x11 and quartz simultaneously for several years now. It seems like py-cairo should be satisfied that cairo is installed with x11, and not care whether it is also installed with quartz.

Perhaps the following bits will help:

If my variants.conf read: "-x11 +no_x11 +quartz"

py27-cairo builds fine ....

if it reads: "+no_x11 +quartz"

building of py27-cairo fails ...

I hope this give a clue where to find the error

Hello,

I believe I have encountered the same error that was reported here. From a completely clean install and updated version of macports, I ran the following commands:

sudo port -v install qt4-mac +debug
sudo port -v install qt4-mac-sqlite3-plugin +debug
sudo port -v install kdelibs4 +debug

I got the same error during two attempts (see attached terminal output):

Error: org.macports.archivefetch for port py27-cairo returned: cairo must be installed with +x11 and without +quartz

During a third attempt, I tried modifying /etc/macports/variants.conf to allow the +x11 and +quartz options described in the error (actually, variants.conf had the very same options commented out as an example; I just uncommented them).

FWIW, I was using the steps described in this tutorial: ​https://projects.kde.org/projects/extragear/graphics/digikam/digikam-software-compilation/repository/revisions/master/entry/README.MACOSX

One of the software (digiKam) maintainers suggested that it might be a problem with macports mirros but I am not sure how to evaluate this. Can anyone advise the steps I can take to resolve or troubleshoot this problem? I've had no troubles using ports on OSX 10.10 until encountering this error.

Thanks,

Will

I don’t think cairo can be installed with -quartz on OS X anymore.

[wtmonroe.ls@…]

Thanks for the reply. Can you suggest troubleshooting steps or alternate installation scenarios?

Could you attach a main.log? running port cat py27-cairo it's a bit puzzling where "org.macports.archivefetch for port py27-cairo returned: cairo must be installed with +x11 and without +quartz" comes from. There's no explicit conflict that I can see in the Portfile or setup.py.patch.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

We don't need more logs or troubleshooting; the port simply needs to correct its usage of require_active_variants.

[Russell-Jones-OxPhys (Russell Jones)]

Which is described here browser:trunk/dports/_resources/port1.0/group/active_variants-1.1.tcl​ . Right, thanks.

[wtmonroe.ls@…]

Thanks to both of you. Based on the replies, it appears that a log isn't required. Is there anything else I can provide? Also, is the proposed correction pending?

[seanfarley (Sean Farley)]

I'm finally back online but am putting out other fires right now. If someone else wants to fix this, then feel free to go for it.

[yarrgk@…]

Me too! and also py34-cairo too!

[jeremyhu (Jeremy Huddleston Sequoia)]

There's no reason to have all that logic. The python module doesn't care what backends cairo is using.
