mpich-devel-default: undefined symbols on macOS 11

[LemingVan]

The Macos is the new one, Big Sur.

When I try to install mpich-devel-default, I get the error message below,

% sudo port install mpich-devel-default

What should I do to install the mpich-devel-default correcttly?

[mf2k (Frank Schima)]

In the future, please add the port maintainer(s) to Cc (port info --maintainers mpich-devel-default), if any.

[eborisch (Eric A. Borisch)]

I haven't had a chance to look into this at all; note that the -devel versions here are tracking upstream development, and are not the recommended version to install unless you are expressly interested in testing out some new feature.

[LemingVan]

Hi eborisch,

Which version of mpich do you recommend for MacOS Big Sur?

[LemingVan]

% sudo port install mpich

Has duplicates #62010, #62037.

See also #61492.

The relevant portions of browser:macports-ports/devel/libtool/files/dynamic_lookup-11.patch need to be applied to the mpich ports.

[eborisch (Eric A. Borisch)]

I will take a look at the libtool patch.

Please run selfupdate and try again; 3.4 builds on the Darwin 20 build bot: ​http://packages.macports.org/mpich-default/ so it should just download the pre-compiled version if you have a standard install. (I think, unless I’ve got my version number off.)

[LemingVan]

sudo port install mpich-default works now. Thank you all for the help.
