Error: Failed to build smake: command execution failed

[EPrimeTV]

Trying to install KDenLive. I've tried over 5 times to install it. It either says "KdenLive" is incomplete/damaged, or it says this.

I've tried clean installing and clean uninstalling over and over but it never works. I know it's outdated, it worked on my old Yosemite machine, but now I have the updated High Sierra 10.13.2 and it hasn't worked at all. It says to look up "/opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_devel_smake/smake/main.log"

So I do. It gives me this. I wish I knew how to read code, I just like to edit, I don't know much about code. I installed homebrew and Smake but I still have no idea.

Please help. Thanks.

Well the error in the log is:

xcrun: error: unable to exec Xcode native xcrun (Permission denied).

That sounds like something is wrong with your Xcode. Try deleting and reinstalling Xcode maybe?

I have uninstalled XCode like 3 times and reinstalled it. I have 2 copies of it in my downloads folder. I had 2 copies of it in my downloads AND my Applications folder. Do I need to download the Kernel Debug and Command Line tools, too? I have. But maybe I have installed the wrong versions? Will that mess it up?

I Googled the error message, and the found #41138 which says to try running xcode-select --reset.

I recommend you install the command line tools as well. Not all ports require it, but some currently do. We hope that MacPorts 2.5 won't require the command line tools anymore, but 2.5 hasn't been released yet.

The kernel debug tools are not used by MacPorts.

Also, if you want to use MacPorts, please uninstall Homebrew and anything you installed with it. Using more than one package management system one the same system will cause problems.

Ok so I ran "xcode-select --reset." and I re-ran KdenLive install. 2 hours-or-so and it said the thing it said before all of this. The "KDenLive" file is broken/incomplete and its executable is missing.

Should I disable my Avast?

I have no experience with avast, but this sounds like an error message from rev-upgrade, and it is not the kind of error that would be caused by a virus scanner, as far as I know.

Could you run rev-upgrade again with the debug switch and capture its output into a compressed log file, like this:

sudo port -d rev-upgrade 2>&1 | tee ~/Desktop/rev-upgrade.log; bzip2 -9 ~/Desktop/rev-upgrade.log

Then attach the file rev-upgrade.log.bz2 from your Desktop to this ticket. That should help us see specifically how kdenlive is broken.
