Use '-read_only_relocs suppress' to enable text relocs :info:build collect2: ld returned 1 exit status :info:build error: command '/usr/bin/gcc-4.2' failed with exit status 1 :info:build Command failed: cd ""/mp2/local/var/macports/build/ }}} However, it builds and installs without error if I comment out the line {{{ --use-system-wcslib }}} in its Portfile. I am fairly confident that this is related to the way I installed wcslib: as wcslib failed in the destroot phase, I added the line {{{ configure.ldflags-append ""read_only_relocs suppress"" }}} to _its_ Portfile. See ticket #48047. Note that py27-astropy fails with the same error as wcslib did. I tried adding ""read_only_relocs suppress"" to py27-astropy's Portfile, but no luck.
