This port built successfully for 10.13 on our buildbots, and binaries should be available now.

Can you retry updating?

Actually I'm mistaken, the 10.13 buildbot hasn't built this yet. But I'm able to successfully build locally for 10.13, so I don't expect an issue.

You might want to wait 24-ish hours, and then try again.

While we're waiting for the 10.13 buildbot to catch up, I'll see if there's anything obvious from your logs. More to follow.

A few observations from the log:

  • You have Xcode 10.1 installed, which includes the macOS 10.14 SDK. And since the latter targets 10.14 - while you're building ports to run on 10.13 - that's not optimal. And indeed, it may cause unexpected issues, due to the version mismatch.
    • So I'd strongly recommend that you downgrade Xcode to the last release which includes a 10.13 SDK, which is 9.4.1.
  • As for the issue specifics: Based on some quick Googling, this may be a bug in the version of Clang shipped with Xcode 10.x.
    • So I suppose we can blacklist just Xcode Clang 10.x, to sidestep the issue.
    • I've also checked with upstream, and there doesn't appear to be a patch for this issue. Nor should it be necessary, as the code in question is correct, per the Cxx 2017 standard.

So if you're in a hurry to get this fixed, downgrade to Xcode 9.4.1.

Otherwise, I'll update the port to blacklist Xcode Clang 10.x. Though that may not happen until this evening, or over the weekend at the latest. (And by that time, buildbot binaries should be available for 10.13.)

I'm downgrading to 9.4.1; if I keep the 10.3 in a utility folder elsewhere, will that satisfy the system?

If macports is looking for Xcode.app in /Applications and the SDKs in the same path, I should be OK, right?

Yes, that's fine. But you should verify that 9.4.1 is the active version, by running xcode-select -p:

$ xcode-select -p
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer

Be sure it's outputting the path to 9.4.1 (which should be /Applications/Xcode.app/...), rather than the path to wherever you moved 10.x to.

Don't forget that your command line tools have to match your Xcode...

you probably upgraded them, so now you would have to downgrade them again and ignore the endless reminders from MacOS to upgrade them forever more.

(Personally, I added the MacOSX10.13.sdk to Xcode 10.x instead of downgrading.)

Ah, yep, great point Ken!

Downgrading solved the problem. I deleted the CommandLineTools folder and then reinstalled the tools after downgrading. I guess we can close this ticket, then. Thanks for the help, everyone!

I'm really sorry this had to happen. I've run afoul of this in the past and then somehow never got around to downgrading. Thanks, again.

Actually it was good that you encountered this issue, as it's a legitimate bug in Xcode Clang 10.x. (One which we definitely needed to add a workaround for.)

And it's good that you downgraded Xcode to 9.4.1, as that will help make things work more smoothly.

Glad we could help you quickly resolve this issue!
