Description
Hi,
I am new to submitting trac so please be gentle on me.
I have used pdfpc earlier but now I fail to install pdfpc.
According to my investigations the port pdfpc is not available any longer. Trying to access it at https://packages.macports.org/pdfpc gives a 404. Will it be back soon or what is the plan?
Kind regards,
Lars Eriksson

My log file showing three failed fetch attempts for pdfpc, and then configure failures.

According to the status of the port it fails to build on all platforms, see my screenshot. I thought the source files used for building was supposed to be available at: https://packages.macports.org/pdfpc
But there is nothing there...
Has anyone tried to run "sudo port install pdfpc" and succeeded recently?

it appears to need, but can't find, libmarkdown:
:info:configure -- Checking for module 'libmarkdown' :info:configure -- No package 'libmarkdown' found :info:configure CMake Error at /opt/local/share/cmake-3.20/Modules/FindPkgConfig.cmake:556 (message): :info:configure A required package was not found :info:configure Call Stack (most recent call first): :info:configure /opt/local/share/cmake-3.20/Modules/FindPkgConfig.cmake:778 (_pkg_check_modules_internal) :info:configure src/CMakeLists.txt:8 (pkg_check_modules) :info:configure -- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred! :info:configure See also "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_graphics_pdfpc/pdfpc/work/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log".
so that looks like the first thing to sort out.

That is where the binary archives would be if the builds succeeded and they were distributable. The source is mirrored at https://distfiles.macports.org/pdfpc/.

The discount port is a dependency and provides libmarkdown, but doesn't appear to install a .pc file.

That seems to have done the trick.
The pdfpc port is as available as it has ever been. It cannot be distributed in binary form due to licensing, but MacPorts will automatically build from source in that case. If it is failing to build for you, please use the "Attach file" button on this ticket to upload the main.log that would have been mentioned in the error message.
