Hey gang,
I am trying to install ocaml so I can compile unison which depends on
ocaml so I can
synchronize my files between my MacBookPro and AMD64 Ubuntu box. Had to get
the latest unison (2.27.10) I could find to overcome a 64 bit integer
bug which was crashing
file transfers.
Since then Unison has worked flawlessly between MBP 10.4 and Ubuntu-AMD64.
Then I did the leopard upgrade. Wrecked apple mail, now using
Thunderbird and I can't
get my old version of ocaml (3.10.0) to compile. It compiled fine on 10.4.
So I downloaded MacPorts to get that version of ocaml:
sh-3.2# port search ocaml
ocaml lang/ocaml 3.10.0 Objective
Caml is an implementation of the ML language
ocaml-mode.el lang/ocaml-mode.el 3.05 An EMACS
major mode for editing OCaml programs.
ocamlduce lang/ocamlduce 3.08.4pl3 Objective
Caml extensions for manipulating XML
But when I try to install I get:
sh-3.2# port install ocaml
Error: Error executing darwin_9: invalid command name
"macosx_deployment_target"
Error: Unable to open port: Error evaluating variants
I don't think it is a bad install of MacPorts as I have loaded several
packages succesfully:
sh-3.2# port installed
The following ports are currently installed:
expat @2.0.1_0 (active)
gettext @0.17_0 (active)
libiconv @1.11_6 (active)
py-chart @1.37_0 (active)
python24 @2.4.4_1+darwin_9 (active)
python25 @2.5.1_2+darwin_9 (active)
Is their some way I can edit the sources on ocaml to get it to compile?
If not, How long do these type things usually take to get fixed in
MacPorts?
ie when should I check back....daily, weekly, monthly???
Thanks, Henry Hollenberg
