We had successful builds of mongodb 5.0.0 on macOS 10.13 and later on July 18 on our buildbot system so either something has changed since then or something is different about your system.

Your log says the error is:

py-requests was updated to 2.26.0 on July 21. Maybe this version has new dependencies which were not added to the port? Haren, Andrew, what do you think?

I mentioned this in a comment on [2f8ef68b43c4d4308a4733f118c0d1f54ac1cdc4/macports-ports]. This will also fail for at least any module that uses pkg_resources for entry points and also uses requests, since its requires.txt lists charset_normalizer~=2.0.0. So we either need a py-charset_normalizer port that can be added as a dependency, or py-requests could be patched to only use chardet as in previous versions.

I was going to start fixing this, but I noticed that Andrew's already done it: [3222813f47bfee2b3566552ece99b92c9dd37c5d/macports-ports]

Maybe this version has new dependencies which were not added to the port?

That one's on me. I didn't realise that they had switched to charset_normalizer since requests still has backwards compatability for chardet during runtime. However, I guess this isn't always true during the build.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Thanks.

Replying to harens:

I didn't realise that they had switched to charset_normalizer since requests still has backwards compatability for chardet during runtime. However, I guess this isn't always true during the build.

The code itself appears to fall back to chardet correctly, but anything that parses requires.txt will see the charset_normalizer dependency declared there.

Thanks, works for me now.
