Ports on Big Sur x86 - portmidi

[Christopher Nielsen]

A few of our ports are failing on the build infrastructure, for target Big Sur x86_64. And one of the culprits is portmidi, which causes downstream ports to fail during the install-dependencies phase because "Dependency 'portmidi' with variants '' has previously failed and is required.”

But if you look at the build history for portmidi, there have only been two attempts for Big Sur x86_64: Details for the first (11/20/2020) don’t exist, presumably because they’ve been purged by now. The second (12/14/2020) shows failures at a higher level, but when you delve into the details, logs are missing:

https://build.macports.org/builders/ports-11_x86_64-builder/builds/7287 <https://build.macports.org/builders/ports-11_x86_64-builder/builds/7287>

Regardless, if you scrutinize the ‘install-port’ step, it failed mighty quickly… in just 13 seconds. Without logs it’s hard to say - perhaps this is a legitimate failing during configure? - but still suspicious.

Has anyone with Big Sur on Intel, been able to successfully install portmidi?
