configure.cpp should be populated for most compilers, but MacPorts does not set the CPP environment variable for you; doing so caused problems for more ports than it solved. If you have a port that needs CPP set, set it yourself, as in: configure.env CPP=${configure.cpp} But I do see that configure.cpp is empty when the compiler is clang. Typically, when $(CPP) is empty, software will use "$(CC) -E". So you could try setting it that way. _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list macports-dev@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-dev
