libiodbc @3.52.12 +x11: error: use of undeclared identifier 'liburl'

[danielta]

The buildbot successfully built +x11 archive, but it actually lacks any GTK components.

Hi, upgrading the outdated ports, it stops at libiodbc with several errors. the first is:

:info:build drvconn.c:501:7: error: use of undeclared identifier 'liburl'

followed by other undeclared symbols. Please see attached log.

cheers

Agreed, libiodbc 3.52.12 fails to build for me too on El Capitan.

[nerdling (Jeremy Lavergne)]

I need a full build log: this installs fine for me locally, and the build bot hasn't caught up to provide any missing pieces.

[nerdling (Jeremy Lavergne)]

succcessful build and install

[nerdling (Jeremy Lavergne)]

Buildbot just confirmed: successful build on El Capitan. Now I definitely need clean build/complete logs from either of you :-)

I've run

port clean  libiodbc
port install  libiodbc

the problem is still there. there is also a broken link in download:

:msg:archivefetch --->  Attempting to fetch libiodbc-3.52.12_0+x11.darwin_15.x86_64.tbz2 from https://packages.macports.org/libiodbc
:debug:archivefetch Fetching archive failed:: The requested URL returned error: 404 Not Found

see complete log attached. I'm running on El Captain 10.11.6.

any idea? thanks for you time. cheers d

The broken link during archivefetch is MacPorts looking for a pre-built archive. It should become available once the buildbot is finished (which has occurred, so it has become a workaround on the next clean run of sudo port install libiodbc).

It looks like the difference between the build logs is GTK. The buildbot didn't actually build any GTK code; so another workaround is to build with the variant disabled sudo port install libiodbc -x11.

Notice the side effect of the buildbot: the archive claims +x11 but it actually built as if -x11.

I just had to install this using sudo port install libiodbc -x11 to get it to build with clang-3.9 on 10.6.8 / libc++ as well. Otherwise there were screenfulls of errors similar to 55002

Just confirming this works:

sudo port install -t libiodbc

as suggested by nerdling, the maintainer. It's very slow, but doesn't complain:

On Ventura, will only build using sudo port install libiodbc -x11

[Liontooth (David Liontooth)]

This library gets called when I install KDE and fails as above with the OP error:

sudo port install kde4-baseapps kdelibs4 kde4-runtime

A workaround on Apple silicon M2 with Ventura 13.1 (22C65) is to first issue

sudo port install libiodbc -x11 +universal

I haven't verified that Konqueror will build or work, but it gets you past the libiodbc error.

[kencu (Ken)]

anyone know why +x11 is a default variant here?

Everyone seems to have to manually force it off to build this, for years now, if gtk is installed at least, which it often is….

Edit - Looks like I have it installed both ways on my M1, both with and without the x11 variant. Will have to experiment a bit to see what gtk versions were or were not installed when I built it with x11 active, I guess:

 % port -v installed libiodbc
The following ports are currently installed:
  libiodbc @3.52.15_2+libodbc+universal requested_variants='+universal-x11' platform='darwin 22' archs='arm64 x86_64' date='2022-12-30T16:28:08-0800'
  libiodbc @3.52.15_2+libodbc+universal+x11 (active) requested_variants='+universal' platform='darwin 22' archs='arm64 x86_64' date='2023-01-29T21:11:42-0800'
