Description mike 2006-03-02 03:00:18 UTC
The textproc/py-4suite port is not usable on 64-bit platforms due to
issues with Expat, and needs to be marked as such. This only applies
to textproc/py-4suite, not textproc/py-4suite-xml, in which the issues
have been fixed.

Fix: Apply the following patch to textproc/py-4suite/Makefile:

According to the log, this bug seems to affect only the  
documentation, so maybe just setting
NOPORTDOCS on the 64-bit platforms fixes the package build.

Have you tried this?

Waiting for maintainer response.

Regarding http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=94011

I have no way of testing on a 64-bit platform at the moment. However, I would
like for the port to be marked as unusable on 64-bit even if it can be built
without docs, given that the problem is in the bundled expat (XML parser) and
the package being what it is (Python libs for XML processing, heavily
depending on that bundled parser). It is likely that people attempting to use
this package on *64 archs will sooner or later run into problems like those
seen during the documentation build.

This port currently builds on my amd64. 

Is this PR still valid?
