Port: pidgin

Description

Problem: Pidgin does not configure.

System: Macbook air 13" mid 2012

Steps to reproduce:

  1. "port install pidgin"
  2. It doesn't work.

The following error is printed

    --->  Configuring pidgin
    Error: Failed to configure pidgin, consult /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_net_pidgin/pidgin/work/pidgin-2.10.7/config.log
    Error: org.macports.configure for port pidgin returned: configure failure: command execution failed
    Please see the log file for port pidgin for details:
        /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_net_pidgin/pidgin/main.log

main.log and config.log are here: http://pastebin.com/2GEaRh83 ; http://pastebin.com/2p2rv2wd

You will notice at line 2868:

Tcl development headers not found.
Use --disable-tcl if you do not need Tcl scripting support.

To fix this I added --disable-tcl to configure.args in the port file

Attached is the diff.

Thanks for reading.

The log file implies that you are running OS X 10.9 (Mavericks). Can you confirm?

Yes, I am running OS X 10.9.2 (Mavericks).

I am unable to reproduce this problem on either Mavericks or ML. Both configure properly as follows:

checking for tclConfig.sh... yes (/usr/lib/tclConfig.sh)
checking Tcl version compatability... ok, 8.5
checking for Tcl linkability... yes
checking for tkConfig.sh... yes (/usr/lib/tkConfig.sh)
checking for Tk linkability... yes

Since this is occurring with Mavericks, I suspect that you may not have properly reinstalled MacPorts after upgrading to this Mac OS version. Please see wiki:Migration for details, especially the bit about Command Line Tools under Mavericks.

/usr/lib/tclConfig.sh is installed by the Command Line Tools package on Mavericks. Make sure you install it by running xcode-select --install in a terminal.
