One workaround is to use makeinfo from OS X Yosemite which has the version 4.8. Passing parameters below to macports invocation should mitigate this problem: {{{ build.args=""MAKEINFO=/usr/bin/makeinfo"" destroot.args=""MAKEINFO=/usr/bin/makeinfo"" }}} 2. clang: The file main.log_makeinfo4 contains the related error log. A workaround is to use gcc (gcc49 works, but I think any gcc4x should work). Passing parameter below to macports invocation should mitigate this problem: {{{ configure.compiler=macports-gcc-4.9 }}} Two workarounds combined: {{{ build.args=""MAKEINFO=/usr/bin/makeinfo"" destroot.args=""MAKEINFO=/usr/bin/makeinfo"" configure.compiler=macports-gcc-4.9 }}} I am also attaching a patch file proposal that combines the two workarounds and depends on gcc49." defect closed Normal ports 2.3.3 wontfix powerpc-rtems-gcc
