Can you please try adding the same patch as in r117888 to the Geant4 port?

No, I never played with Portfile.. but if you think it is the same issue, you should fix it in the same manner.

Ciao, Angelo.

[hapaguy (Brian Kurt Fujikawa)]

Cc Me!

[mojca (Mojca Miklavec)]

About playing with the Portfile ... just run

cd $(port dir geant4)

and add those two lines to the Portfile and try to rebuild. (The command port selfupdate overwrites that, but you would have a working port by that time.)

I blindly applied the patch in r117906 now. I'm now curious how the commit r117901 interferes with building Geant4 (with the set of allowed compilers).

Also, maybe ​ROOT's commit can give a hint of what is needed to get CLHEP working properly under clang >= 3.4.

[hansbogert@…]

I've added another log, because the build is still failing. Port decides to have llvm-gcc42 as a dependency now for geant in my case.

I would be really grateful for some additional help, testing and debugging to figure out why this fails in the first place.

But other than that: which compiler deserves blacklisting now?

I discovered that Geant4 builds just fine with the built-in CLHEP, so now I'm also chasing the reason why it fails when external CLHEP is present even if it's not being used (that might be related to #42872). The reason for using the external CLHEP is at least Gate which isn't happy with the built-in version for some reason (the author is working on fixing that, but it might take some time before it's done; from what I understand he has some come in his local/private branch).

[marcchamberland@…]

Just chiming in that the build also fails for me.

I'd be happy to help in any way I can. I'm resourceful, but my programming knowledge is limited.

[mojca (Mojca Miklavec)]

Out of curiosity: does it help if you blacklist macports-llvm-gcc-4.2?

Does the following work?

sudo port -v install geant4.10.0 configure.compiler=macports-clang-3.3

[hapaguy (Brian Kurt Fujikawa)]

I am working with three OS X 10.9.2 Macs with Xcode 5.1. For some unknown reason that I am still trying to investigate, the default geant4.10.0 build was successful on two and failed on one.

Anyway, the following worked for me on the one Mac where the default geant4.10.0 build failed:

sudo port -sv install geant4.10.0 configure.compiler=macports-clang-3.3

Blacklisting macports-llvm-gcc-4.2 did not help.

The command for installing Geant4 10.0 worked, though.

[mojca (Mojca Miklavec)]

Which compiler was used then when you blacklisted macports-llvm-gcc-4.2?

[cjones051073 (Chris Jones)]

Hi,

Build géant 4.10.0 on OSX 10.9, with the blacklist as currently in the port

compiler.blacklist  {clang > 503} macports-clang-3.4 macports-clang-3.5

The build ends up resorting to the compiler /opt/local/bin/llvm-g++-4.2, which immediately struck me as probably not a great choice, and ultimately fails with

If I simply comment out the blacklist, and try again, the build proceeds and finishes just fine.

So it appears, at least for OSX10.9, and geant4.10.0, the blacklist is too restrictive, and is preventing use of the default clang compiler (which is always the best one to use, if it works, I think), which works fine. I haven't tested any other geant4 versions though, so perhaps others have problems. If they do, then that shouldn't prevent the use of the system clang with 10.0, and the blacklist should then be version specific...

Chris

[cjones051073 (Chris Jones)]

If I blacklist macports-llvm-gcc-4.2, the it attempts to use apple-gcc42, which I think is even less likely to be the right compiler, at least on OSX10.9. Given the default clang compiler seems to work fine, that should be allowed by the blacklist.

Hi,

I have tested both geant4 versions 4.9.6 and 4.9.5, and both build fine on OSX 10.9 with the default system compiler (clang) if I comment out the current compiler blacklist.

So I can confirm the current blacklist is too restrictive, at least as far as OSX10.9 is concerned, and the default system compiler on this system should be allowed. the compiler is

macmini ~ > clang -v
Apple LLVM version 5.1 (clang-503.0.38) (based on LLVM 3.4svn)
Target: x86_64-apple-darwin13.1.0
Thread model: posix

So I simply propose removing the {clang > 503} from the backlist.

cheers Chris

See #42999.

I would be grateful if someone could confirm that compiling geant4.10.0 +clhep works on 10.9 with default compiler now (the patch was added to CLHEP on 5th May). Not that it matters any longer because we now switched to the built-in CLHEP anyway, but still ...

Most likely fixed in the latest CLHEP version (r120006).
