#35400: Pymol crash in Mountain Lion
-------------------------------------+--------------------------------------
Reporter: akouts_1871@… | Owner: howarth@…
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: Normal | Milestone:
Component: ports | Version: 2.1.2
Keywords: mountainlion | Port: pymol
-------------------------------------+--------------------------------------
Comment(by howarth@…):
The tcl maintainers have broken pymol (actually most likely the required
blt package) by their ill-considered removal of[[BR]]
--disable-corefoundation. As I have explained numerous times, the Core
Foundation support in tcl is likely providing some level[[BR]]
of thread support which is incompatible with tcl programs that use fork()
without exec(). The sensible fix is already attached to[[BR]]
this bug report as well as http://trac.macports.org/ticket/31995 where the
removal of --disable-corefoundation. is moved to[[BR]]
the threads variant of tcl. Unfortunately the macports tcl maintainers
seem entirely disinterested in fixing this breakage.
