So, we finally got through all the ports without anything hanging. :-)
The full status report can be viewed at
<http://build.macports.org/builders/buildports/builds/215/steps/status/logs/portstatus/text>.
There are a number of reasons why ports may fail on the buildslave but
work fine when you try them locally:
* A dependency failed to build. The progress log [1] will usually
indicate if this is the case. A less obvious case is when the dependency
built fine with default variants, but fails when e.g. a 32-bit-only
dependent causes it to be built with +universal.
* Fetching with a protocol other than http or https. The machine is
behind the same firewall as the distfiles mirror.
* Missing dependencies. Build-time dependencies on pkgconfig and
intltool are forgotten especially often.
* Case-sensitivity issues.
Unfortunately we don't have individual logs available via the web, and
the stdio is very large. If you can't figure out why your port is
failing, I can force a build for you and that will produce a manageable
stdio log. You can also trigger a build by committing any change to the
port, though you probably don't want to be making useless commits just
to get a build.
The plan is to let all committers force builds using the same username
and password as for trac/svn, but there's no ETA on that yet.
Anyway, enjoy!
