cmake-devel does not satisfy build when cmake is requested

[kencu (Ken)]

I am trying to install kdelibs4 on arm64 Sonoma again.

I use cmake-devel because it has fixes in it that the cmake port does not yet have.

When trying to install kdelibs4, I get this error:

% sudo port install kdelibs4
--->  Computing dependencies for kdelibs4
Error: Can't install cmake because conflicting ports are active: cmake-devel
Error: Follow https://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets if you believe there is a bug.
Error: Processing of port kdelibs4 failed

both the cmake-1.0 and cmake-1.1 portgroups list a path dependency to the cmake binary.

cmake-devel should make it happy -- but it doesn't, and I have not been able to sort out yet why not:

Maybe one of you can see the issue?

so for now I just hacked the cmake-1.0.tcl PortGroup to ask for cmake-devel instead, to get past this.

I see some references in the log to /opt/local and some to /opt/macportsofficial. Not sure if that's significant. What's the relationship between those two paths?

[kencu (Ken)]

/opt/macportsofficial/macports-ports is where I keep my git checkout of the ports tree.

that is the primary tree set in sources.conf

I can try going back to the rsync checkout and see if that is different.

Replying to kencu:

/opt/macportsofficial/macports-ports is where I keep my git checkout of the ports tree.

Oh, ok that should be fine.
