dvisvgm @2.3.4: build failure

Reported by: hugo-ribeiro (Hugo Ribeiro) Owned by: michaelld (Michael Dickens)
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.5.3

Port: xmlto dvisvgm

Description

The problem might be due to the installation script looking for grep instead of ggrep; I have the macports version of grep installed (grep @3.1_1).

if [ `type -p asciidoc` ]; then \
                asciidoc -a icons -a 'iconsdir=.' -a badges -a 'revnumber=2.3.4' --unsafe -bdocbook -dmanpage -o dvisvgm-man.xml.tmp dvisvgm.txt; \
                xsltproc -o dvisvgm-man.xml ../doc/tweak-db-refentry.xsl dvisvgm-man.xml.tmp; \
                rm dvisvgm-man.xml.tmp; \
        fi
if [ `type -p xmlto` ]; then \
                xmlto -m ../doc/conf-dblatex-man.xsl --stringparam man.endnotes.list.enabled=0 --stringparam man.endnotes.are.numbered=0 --stringparam man.authors.section.enabled=0 man dvisvgm-man.xml; \
        fi

However, during the configuration part ggrep is detected.

p.s: the port has no maintainer. I'm cc'ing drkp since he was the last one submitting a commit for dvisvgm.

Port: xmlto added

Looks like the path to grep is baked in to xmlto.

comment:2 Changed 6 years ago by jmroot (Joshua Root)

And dvisvgm doesn't declare a dependency on xmlto either.

Cc: mf2k ryandesign added

My xmlto says the following:

# Utilities that we need that aren't everywhere
FIND=/opt/local/bin/gfind     # This must be GNU find (need -maxdepth)
MKTEMP=mktemp # See http://www.mktemp.org if missing on your system
BASH=/bin/sh     # GNU bash, for running the format scripts
GETOPT=/opt/local/bin/getopt # a getopt that supports --longoptions
TAIL=/opt/local/bin/gtail     # a tail that supports -n (posix)
GREP=/usr/bin/grep     # GNU grep, for searching patterns
SED=/usr/bin/sed       # GNU sed, for modification of patterns

This looks as if your xmlto was compiled when whatever port provides /opt/local/bin/grep was active, and now you deactivated/uninstalled it. I would classify this to be a problem with xmlto Any executable listed in the file needs to be at least a runtime dependency of xmlto. So this is primarily a problem of xmlto rather than a problem with dvisvgm.

The unrelated problem is that xmlto should not be called when building dvisvgm in the first place, at least not when building from a release. Given that it wasn't installed on my machine (and I did compile dvisvgm from source in the last couple of days) it apparently uses it opportunistically.

Replying to mojca:

Or rather, it was compiled with grep @3.1_0 or earlier active. As of grep @3.1_1, it doesn't provide /opt/local/bin/grep anymore; it now provides /opt/local/bin/ggrep.

I would classify this to be a problem with xmlto Any executable listed in the file needs to be at least a runtime dependency of xmlto. So this is primarily a problem of xmlto rather than a problem with dvisvgm.

That's one of the two problems, yes.

Right, that's the second problem.

comment:7 Changed 6 years ago by JeffFessler (Jeff Fessler)

Anybody have a workaround for this issue?
My upgrade to texlive-bin-extra failed because it depends on this dvisvgm so now texlive is broken :(
BTW, in my case "which grep" returns /usr/bin/grep for what it's worth. Thanks.

[dd83f69f8bfbc7c2ad240d91790bd841b481d84d/macports-ports] was an attempt to fix this, but now it will be broken for users who don't have the grep and gsed ports installed.

comment:9 Changed 6 years ago by michaelld (Michael Dickens)

Sorry about that breakage; luckily it was caught quickly! I just pushed the fix.

I was having the exact issue of this ticket, and fixing xmlto resolved the issue for me. [Updating dvisvgm to the latest version is a little more challenging, since it now has extra dependencies, some of which don't exist in MacPorts ...]

needs asciidoc as well? I might be wrong about this. Retesting...

Edit:

It seems to need asciidoc on Tiger, at least. Build fails without asciidoc installed. Testing other systems.

comment:14 Changed 6 years ago by mojca (Mojca Miklavec)

Well, it "needs" asciidoc, xmlto, xsltproc. However, it doesn't really need them, it just opportunistically runs them when present, to build stuff like man page which doesn't exist in development sources, but exists in the released version. I didn't inspect into details, but I assume all those calls are pretty much useless.

build failure on tiger if asciidoc is not installed...

comment:15 Changed 6 years ago by kencu (Ken)

I admit I don't really understand why it needs asciidoc on Tiger and apparently not on other systems. Not a big deal. I just installed asciidoc on my Tiger box and all is well...

The log merely says

Nothing related to asciidoc.

comment:19 Changed 6 years ago by kencu (Ken)

mmm. Late at night I guess -- the log I uploaded seems to concatenate a few logs together, although I didn't realize macports would concatenate them like that. I'll send up a completely clean one.

The error I saw finally was at the very end of the log I uploaded:

and here, it seems to error because of a missing input file:

which appears to be generated by asciidoc a few lines earlier - and sure enough it builds if asciidoc is available.

I just tried building from source on Leopard PPC and that works fine...

comment:21 Changed 6 years ago by diochnos

Attached two logs from my end: OS X 10.13.6, MacPorts 2.5.3.

  1. diochnos_fail_without_asciidoc.log: this is the log file that I obtained when asciidoc was not installed on my system and I attempted to upgrade the ports.
  1. diochnos_fail_with_asciidoc.log: this is the log file that I obtained after first installing asciidoc and then attempting to upgrade the ports.

In this second case I received the following messages:

@diochnos: doesn't this commit solve the problem? Do you have the latest version of port definitions (did you run sudo port selfupdate very recently)? Your xmlto seems outdated in any case.

Replying to mojca:

I did run sudo port selfupdate and indeed xmlto is outdated. However if I attempt to upgrade the ports, it first tries to update texlive-bin-extra. These are the ports that I currently have outdated on my system (sudo port outdated):

texlive-bin-extra              47446_0 < 47446_1         
xmlto                          0.0.28_1 < 0.0.28_3       
xorg-libXcomposite             0.4.4_0 < 0.4.4_1         
xorg-libXcursor                1.1.14_0 < 1.1.15_1       
xorg-libXinerama               1.1.3_0 < 1.1.4_1         
xorg-libXrandr                 1.5.1_0 < 1.5.1_1         
xorg-libXtst                   1.2.3_0 < 1.2.3_1         
youtube-dl                     2018.08.04_0 < 2018.09.26_0  

I will probably go about and uninstall texlive-bin-extra, upgrade everything else, and then attempt to bring back in texlive-bin-extra.

comment:24 in reply to:  23 Changed 6 years ago by diochnos

Replying to diochnos:

Indeed, uninstalling texlive-bin-extra (ignoring the warning that texlive will be broken), then upgrading all the other ports and then re-installing texlive-bin-extra brings dvisvgm back in and everything seems to be working without any issues.

So, I should be good. Thank you all.

comment:25 Changed 5 years ago by galsondor (Scott G. Ainsworth)

For me, installing asciidoc resolved the dvisvgm build failure on both macOS 10.13.6 and 10.14 (MacPorts v2.5.3).

Ditto the prior comment for me.

comment:27 Changed 5 years ago by kencu (Ken)

should we just make asciidoc a build dep until we sort this out?
