tesseract @4.1.1_2: unable to compile it under 11.6 and 12.0.1 but works under 10.13.6 due to a file, named VERSION

[czo]

I found a strange thing about this port when i try to compile it under 11.6 and 12.0.1, but it works fine under 10.13. The problem seems to be related some case sensitivity/unsensitivity madness, because the compile fails on a file, which has the name 'VERSION'. That caused by the system's 'cmath' header (/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX12.sdk/usr/include/c++/v1/cmath; line 309), which try to include a file, named "version".

I can compile it, if i patch the source and rename the file. There are any better options for this? Or maybe that is the accepted solution? I found egzactly the same thing when try to compile "devel/ace", so i wrote a patch for that port too.

I've attached the main.log and the patch file too. If it's will be ok, i will create a merge request with the patch for both ports.

patch to rename VERSION to VERSION.txt

Ugh, nice catch - funny that it broke recently. I'll take a look.

[jmroot (Joshua Root)]

The version header is a C++20 thing.

Yeah, this seems to be fixed in 4.1.3 upstream - I'm working on that fix now.
