Hi Ken!

hmm... somehow your email got garbled? It is without subject and I cannot relate.. but I think I got it.

meson is now more picky about unrecognized arguments.

This will have to be removed, and then making sure it uses the right NM might have to be done another way:

lt_cv_path_NM=/opt/local/bin/nm



Are you suggesting that the "classic" way I used for years:

if {${os.platform} eq "darwin" && ${os.major} < 10} {
    depends_build-append port:cctools
    configure.env-append NM=${prefix}/bin/nm
    configure.args-append lt_cv_path_NM=${prefix}/bin/nm
}

is not correct, since it adds extra arguments? Indeed I was using an old Portfile, the one I "saved".

The current portfile has:

if {${os.platform} eq "darwin" && ${os.major} < 10} {
    depends_build-append \
                        port:cctools
    configure.env-append \
                        NM=${prefix}/bin/nm
}


I wonder if this different way needs to be propagated to many other ports or just if meson is used.

pango built now, so resuming build of other stuff!

I will not file a bug, since it is already corrected. This is me trying to determine pango versions which worked. I am very confused, I have not found a specific verison pattern - as I noted in the trac ticket.

Thanks!

Riccardo
