aee @2.2.15b_1 does not find curses on Mavericks - build failure

[alexander.wittig@…]

After upgrading to Mavericks, uninstalling all ports, updating MacPorts using the Mavericks package from the MacPorts website and reinstalling all ports I'm stuck with two that don't build: aee and ee. They both seem to have trouble finding the correct curses files. Note that ncurses is installed on the system via its port.

The error message from the log file is:

:info:build make: Entering directory `/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_editors_aee/aee/work/aee-2.2.15b'

It builds fine for me on Mavericks. Please attach your main.log so I can compare it with mine.

log file for the failed aee build

[alexander.wittig@…]

Thanks for the quick response! Attached is the log for aee. I checked and this behavior is present on two separate machines, both updated from a working 10.8 -> 10.9. Other ports build just fine. It seems I'm missing the entire /usr/include directory where the (a)ee build scripts look for curses related headers. I'm not sure if this is a change in Maverick or some indication of a botched installation on my systems.

Follow the migration instructions. In particular, it sounds like you have not installed the Xcode command line tools.
