Went a long way with package installation in the last days, I’d say 98% of my needs. Now stopped at install qgis +grass All dependencies installed properly, but qgis failed. At first, had to modify qgis Portfile according to <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/57112>, adding configure.args-append "-DWITH_INTERNAL_FUTURE=OFF" After that, build process went quite far but stopped at about 49%. Any guess from the tail of the log shown below? Ready to file a ticket with the full log, but I’m afraid that being an old version of qgis failing on a non-standard MacPorts configuration on an ancient system, it may not deserve much of attention… Franco … … … :info:build /opt/local/bin/cmake -E copy /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_gis_qgis/qgis/work/QGIS-2_18_17/src/gui/editorwidgets/core/qgswidgetwrapper.h output/lib/qgis_gui.framework/Versions/2.18/Headers/qgswidgetwrapper.h :info:build [ 49%] Linking CXX shared library ../../output/lib/qgis_gui.framework/qgis_gui :info:build cd /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_gis_qgis/qgis/work/build/src/gui && /opt/local/bin/cmake -E cmake_link_script CMakeFiles/qgis_gui.dir/link.txt --verbose=ON :info:build /opt/local/bin/clang++-mp-5.0 -pipe -Os -DNDEBUG -I/opt/local/include -stdlib=libc++ -DSPATIALITE_VERSION_GE_4_0_0 -DSPATIALITE_VERSION_G_4_1_1 -DSPATIALITE_HAS_INIT_EX -std=c++11 -Wno-error=c++11-narrowing -Wall -Wextra -Wno-long-long -Wformat-security -Wno-strict-aliasing -Wno-return-type-c-linkage -Wno-overloaded-virtual -Qunused-arguments -arch x86_64 -mmacosx-version-min=10.6 -dynamiclib -Wl,-headerpad_max_install_names -L/opt/local/lib -Wl,-headerpad_max_install_names -Qunused-arguments -F/Library/Frameworks -compatibility_version 2.18.17 -current_version 2.18.17 -o ../../output/lib/qgis_gui.framework/Versions/2.18/qgis_gui -install_name /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_gis_qgis/qgis/work/build/output/lib/qgis_gui.framework/Versions/2.18/qgis_gui CMakeFiles/qgis_gui.dir/raster/qgsmultibandcolorrendererwidget.cpp.o CMakeFiles/qgis_gui.dir/raster/qgspalettedrendererwidget.cpp.o CMakeFiles/qgis_gui.dir/raster/qgsrasterhistogramwidget.cpp.o … … <huge snip of CMakeFiles/…/…/*.o here> … … CMakeFiles/qgis_gui.dir/editorwidgets/moc_qgswebviewwidgetwrapper.cxx.o -L/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_gis_qgis/qgis/work/build/src/core -L/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_gis_qgis/qgis/work/build/src/gui -Wl,-rpath,/opt/local/lib -Wl,-rpath,/Applications/MacPorts/lib ../../output/lib/qgis_core.framework/Versions/2.18/qgis_core /opt/local/libexec/qt4/lib/libQtUiTools.dylib /opt/local/libexec/qt4/lib/libqwt.dylib /opt/local/libexec/qt4/lib/libqscintilla2_qt4.dylib -framework CoreFoundation -framework IOKit /opt/local/libexec/qt4/lib/libQtXml.dylib /opt/local/libexec/qt4/lib/libQtCore.dylib /opt/local/libexec/qt4/lib/libQtGui.dylib /opt/local/libexec/qt4/lib/libQtNetwork.dylib /opt/local/libexec/qt4/lib/libQtSvg.dylib /opt/local/libexec/qt4/lib/libQtWebKit.dylib /opt/local/libexec/qt4/lib/libQtSql.dylib /opt/local/libexec/qt4/lib/libqca.dylib /opt/local/lib/proj49/lib/libproj.dylib /opt/local/lib/libgeos_c.dylib /opt/local/lib/libgdal.dylib /opt/local/lib/libspatialindex.dylib /opt/local/lib/libexpat.dylib /opt/local/lib/libsqlite3.dylib /opt/local/lib/libspatialite.dylib :info:build make[2]: Leaving directory `/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_gis_qgis/qgis/work/build' :info:build [ 49%] Built target qgis_gui :info:build make[1]: Leaving directory `/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_gis_qgis/qgis/work/build' :info:build make: *** [all] Error 2 :info:build make: Leaving directory `/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_gis_qgis/qgis/work/build' :info:build Command failed: cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_gis_qgis/qgis/work/build" && /usr/bin/make -j2 -w all VERBOSE=ON :info:build Exit code: 2 :error:build Failed to build qgis: command execution failed :debug:build Error code: CHILDSTATUS 994 2 :debug:build Backtrace: command execution failed :debug:build while executing :debug:build "system {*}$notty {*}$nice $fullcmdstring" :debug:build invoked from within :debug:build "command_exec build" :debug:build (procedure "portbuild::build_main" line 8) :debug:build invoked from within :debug:build "$procedure $targetname" :error:build See /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_gis_qgis/qgis/main.log for details.
