apple-gcc42 Won't build on Mac OS X tiger

[dfifer19@…]

When I Do sudo port install git-core everything works but apple-gcc42 won't build how do I fix this? Below is what happens after I enter the command.

devin-fifers-imac:~ devinfifer$ sudo port install git-core

This Is not a New Defect and Priority is Normal

Your ports tree is horribly out of date. The git-core port was renamed to git eight months ago.

Please run the following commands to try again:

$ sudo port clean apple-gcc42 git-core
$ sudo port -d selfupdate
$ sudo port install apple-gcc42 +bootstrap
$ sudo port -n upgrade --enforce-variants apple-gcc42 -bootstrap
$ sudo port install git-core

Probably duplicate of #46642. Please don’t open new tickets when existing tickets describe your problem.

Sounds like it's building. I suggest you use --verbose if you want more info, or you can tail -f the log file.

[larryv (Lawrence Velázquez)]

There’s no evidence here that anything is wrong. Compilers can take a long time to build. Like Jeremy said, request verbose output

$ sudo port -v install apple-gcc42

or debug output

$ sudo port -d install apple-gcc42

to verify that the build is not getting stuck.
