main.log with detailed output

The error seems kind of funny because I do have g++ installed and it seems to be detected correctly.

Do you have the latest Xcode and Command Line Tools installed? The build is not detecting Clang correctly:

:debug:configure Using compiler 'System cc'

What’s the output from these commands?

% xcode-select --print-path
% ls -dl /usr/include

Also: "see config.log for details"

We don’t support using the CLT as your active developer directory. Try this:

% sudo xcode-select --switch /Applications/Xcode.app
% sudo port clean gmp
% sudo port upgrade outdated

If that still fails, please attach your new main.log and the config.log (which should be in $(port work gmp)/gmp-6.0.0 somewhere).

What? Do you have Xcode installed? What OS are you running?

Your log is still missing a ton of information. Please run exactly these commands; do NOT run anything else.

% sudo port clean all
% sudo port upgrade gmp

Then upload main.log and config.log.

Correct, that's invalid. We should have instead asked you to run (and please run this now):

sudo xcode-select --switch /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer

I’ve never had a problem using the path to the app itself, and the xcode-select documentation says that that should work. I do remember people having trouble with it; perhaps there was a bug with certain versions of xcode-select.

Oh I see. I agree, it does not print an error for me. So then we're left with: what version of Xcode to you have in /Applications, vithlani?

[vithlani@…]

Hi,

Thanks for taking the time to look at this issue.

I suspect my XCode is *very* old and that is causing the problem. Version is Xcode3.1.4, and I can't even run it with the latest version of OS X.

I could not:

sudo xcode-select --switch /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer

As that directory does not exist but I do have something under /Library/Developer. I tried switching to that but still does not work.

Will post detailed output once I get home.

Should I just bite the bullet and upgrade XCode?

[vithlani@…]

I Installed the latest XCode stable build and it seems to have solved the problem.

Many thanks, please close.

[larryv (Lawrence Velázquez)]

Alright. For the future, do make sure that your active developer directory is inside /Applications/Xcode.app and not /Library/Developer.

Will do, I don't use XCode and had an ancient installation just there for making the ports system work and getting command line tools.

Is there a way to get these without XCode?
