#54435: Building libcaca at 0.99.beta19_6+x11 on a PPC fails unless cppunit compiled
with GCC6
--------------------------------------------+---------------------
Reporter: josephsacco | Owner:
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: Normal | Milestone:
Component: ports | Version: 2.4.1
Keywords: PPC libcaca cppunit OSX 10.5.8 | Port: libcaca
--------------------------------------------+---------------------
If cppunit is installed and was compiled with GCC4.2, building libcaca
will fail in the test directory on a PPC, due to missing symbols for PPC
in cppunit.
The Portfile for libcaca contains the line
PortGroup cxx11 1.1
which will force the libcaca build to use GCC6 on a PPC. If cppunit is
installed and was compiled with GCC4.2, the libcaca build will fail in the
test directory due to missing symbols for PPC.
Recompiling cppunit with GCC6 fixes the problem. Someone who knows a lot
more about Portfiles than I do could probably force the recompilation of
cppunit from within the libcaca Portfile.
