I filled a ticket 2 weeks ago with log because R-app doesn’t build.
Looks like you're referring to https://trac.macports.org/ticket/60345 which
I've closed as a duplicate of https://trac.macports.org/ticket/59482.
I’m afraid that understanding what the log is telling me - beyond that there
are lots of files it can’t find/ can’t write to - is over my head. Is R-app
permanently broken or is there some way other than filing a ticket to get help
with getting it to compile? I’m on 10.14.6.
The first error I see in the log is
:info:build 2020-04-11 09:57:05.434 xcodebuild[30927:709640] Error
Domain=com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimError Code=159 "Unable to determine SimDeviceSet,

We don't need iOS/iPadOS/tvOS/watchOS simulators for MacPorts since we're only
building for macOS. It's baffling why xcodebuild wants to have anything to do
with the simulators when they're not needed nor wanted. Hopefully this is just
a warning you can ignore.
But then there are a series of can’t open or can’t create files starting with
:info:build 2020-04-11 09:57:05.506 xcodebuild[30927:709638] [MT] IDELogStore:

:info:build }.
This sounds like the usual Xcode 10+ derived data problem. See
https://trac.macports.org/ticket/57137. Don't know why nobody who's using Xcode
10+ has developed a general fix for that yet.
And why is SnowLeopard coming in?
:info:build --- xcodebuild: WARNING: Configuration SnowLeopard64 is not in the
project. Building default configuration.
The R-app portfile instructs xcodebuild to use a configuration called
SnowLeopard64. No such configuration exists in this software (anymore;
presumably one by that name used to exist; currently it seems to contain
configurations named Lion64 and MLion64) so it builds whatever the default
configuration of this Xcode project called is instead. The portfile should be
changed to specify whatever the actual configuration name is, or if the default
one is suitable then that line can just be removed.
Then I finally noticed a report error to apple line. I’ll do that in a few
moments. But generally a ton of stuff seems to be going ok and then I start
getting ibtool warnings and in particular complaints that building for older
than 10.6 is not supported. Since I’m on 10.14.6, something’s gone awry.
Yes the real error I think is:
error: Compiling for earlier than macOS 10.6 is no longer supported
Nothing has gone awry per se; it's just that the particular file about which
xcodebuild shows this error message (the dutch translation of the syntax colors
preference pane) (and perhaps other xib files as well) is configured to build
for older than 10.6 (perhaps unintentionally, since the rest of the project
seems to be meant for 10.7 and later), and the latest Xcode no longer allows
building for older than 10.6. The xib file(s) will have to be adjusted by the
software's developer (or, if they are unavailable, the portfile's maintainer)
to specify a different (newer) deployment target, or ideally not to specify one
at all (if that is possible for xib files) and let MacPorts do it. A newer
version of R-app is available from the developer; the first step should
probably be to try to update the port to that version.
