QGIS, qgis3: missing spatialite dependency

[Liontooth (David Liontooth)]

On High Sierra, QGIS 2_18_13 fails to configure because of a missing spatialite dependency. Configures fine once spatialite is installed.

:info:configure CMake Error: The following variables are used in this project, but they are set to NOTFOUND.
:info:configure Please set them or make sure they are set and tested correctly in the CMake files:

This affects the recently-added qgis3 port as well.

[Veence (Vincent)]

Should be fixed in the new Portfile. But the qgis portfile was already fixed.

[Liontooth (David Liontooth)]

I'm getting this with the latest qgis3 makefile:

:info:build /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/make -f tests/src/gui/CMakeFiles/qgis_valuerelationwidgetwrapper_autogen.dir/build.make tests/src/gui/CMakeFiles/qgis_valuerelationwidgetwrapper_autogen.dir/build
:info:build In file included from /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_gis_qgis3/qgis3/work/QGIS-1c1de3a/src/app/qgisapp.cpp:417:
:info:build /opt/local/include/spatialite/spatialite.h:45:10: fatal error: 'spatialite_private.h' file not found
:info:build #include <spatialite_private.h>

So spatialite does not have a file called spatialite_private.h:

# port contents spatialite | grep '\.h'
  /opt/local/include/spatialite.h
  /opt/local/include/spatialite/control_points.h
  /opt/local/include/spatialite/debug.h

  /opt/local/include/spatialite/gg_xml.h
  /opt/local/include/spatialite/spatialite.h
  /opt/local/include/spatialite/sqlite.h

It seems to be in libspatialite -- Debian has it in libspatialite-dev. How does macports handle dev files?

[Veence (Vincent)]

Problem is, there are actually two spatialite.h files, one in ${prefix}/include the other in ${prefix}/include/spatialite. I chose the latter while it appears only the former is correct. I’ve modified the Portfile, please try again.

[Liontooth (David Liontooth)]

Confirmed, this works; please close.
