The changes to autoconf'ed ports, regarding the LATE_CONFIGURE_ARGS broken this port. By rolling our own do-configure target and passing the right combination of --build and --host, this port still builds and works fine. Port maintainer (shaun@FreeBSD.org) is cc'd. Generated with FreeBSD Port Tools 0.77
Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-ports-bugs->shaun Over to maintainer (via the GNATS Auto Assign Tool)
I will still claim that a version of GCC that is ten years old and that neither the maintainer nor anyone else has bothered fixing for nine months is not worth keeping. In any case, before proceeding please have a look at http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=110516+0+archive/2009/freebsd-ports/20090621.freebsd-ports which is affecting _real_ users and best addressed by removing the obsolete lang/gcc295 port. By keeping the useless lang/gcc295 port we will make the situation more tricky and maintain those complications with later lang/gcc ports. Gerald
Hi Gerald, thanks for sharing your concern, as de-facto gcc-ports maintainer your input is very welcomed. However, I fail to see how gcc295 can be blamed for either ccache's behaviour (which I'm ignorant to) or gcc43's. In any case, why don't we a) commit the fix b) set DEPRECATED c) ship 8.0 and possibly 7.3 with working gcc295 packages d) yank it from the tree I don't want to support gcc295 any longer than that, but at least the fix should make it in before sending gcc295 to the attic. Thanks for your consideration, Uli
