atk fails to build

[dyne2meter]

Fails to build in Mojave; I have linking errors reported that require rebuilding gimp and ImageMagick, which both depend on atk

:info:build /opt/local/libexec/llvm-13/bin/llvm-objdump: error: unknown argument '-cho'

Why doesn't otool work? Let's solve that first.

You appear to be using an otool installed by the cctools port with the +llvm13 variant. Is that the default variant of cctools on your system? Try reinstalling cctools without specifying a variant (sudo port install cctools) and see if it gives you a different variant. If it does, clean the affected port (sudo port clean atk) and try building it again.

Comments in the cctools port say that Xcode 11 and newer contain newer versions of tools than what the cctools port provides, so certainly with Xcode 11 and later the port should select the +xcode variant. Your log shows you're using Xcode 10.3, so maybe it doesn't do that on your system. If the default variant MacPorts chooses still won't build atk, try explicitly requesting the +xcode variant (sudo port install cctools +xcode), clean (sudo port clean atk) and try again.

[dyne2meter]

Yes, that works. I chose the +xcode variant and did not bother with the default. Until I did this, the installation of atk also didn't work with an even older version of xcode (High Sierra, Xcode 10.1).

Thanks for your expertise in understanding the toolset.

Great, glad the issue is resolved!
