Can't install ports/www/uwsgi

I get the following error message

[olav@zpool /usr/ports/www/uwsgi]$ sudo make reinstall clean

Does anyone have an idea what I can do?

I had something to do with GCC 4.8 not having the flag -Wformat enabled by default. I solved this by adding

CFLAGS=-Wformat

to /etc/make.conf and recompiling Python.

Maybe you should put

CFLAGS+=-Wformat

just to be on the safe side, so you'll append this to the existing CFLAGS, which might be present for example in a Makefile, without overriding them.

Thanks will do that!

It's best not to muck about with CFLAGS but in this case you don't seem to have many options. To make sure these options are only used with this port use something like this in /etc/make.conf:

.if ${.CURDIR:M/*www/uwsgi}
CFLAGS+=-Wformat
.endif
