Porting pythonocc-core

[HayPhil]

I am trying to port pythonocc-core.

I created a jail with freebsd-14.3-RELEASE for this.
The output of make build brings following error:

The installed Perl 5.40 version is 5.40.2

Having a look at FreshPorts show:

I am a bit surpised, 5.40.2 exists as package and is installed with pkg install git.
What could be a workaround for this?

 

[SirDice]

The installed Perl 5.40 version is 5.40.2

No, it's 5.42.0, /usr/local/bin/perl5.40.2@ is a symlink and probably a dangling one now. Look at ls -l /usr/local/bin/perl*

Ah, I think I see where you went wrong. You've mixed quarterly packages (where Perl 5.40 is the default) with a recent (aka latest) ports tree (where 5.42 is the default).

ports - FreeBSD ports tree

cgit.freebsd.org

 

[HayPhil]

I installed perl 5.42 after (with pkg install) to try to solve the problem.

The port tree is 2025-Q3

 

[SirDice]

What does git -C /usr/ports branch show?

 

[HayPhil]


[root@14_3_release /usr/ports/cad/pythonocc-core]# git -C /usr/ports branch
* 2025Q3



 

[SirDice]

Looking at it again, the confusion is probably caused by the port being updated to 5.40.3 but the packages haven't been built yet (or at least not distributed). Packages will always lag a little behind the ports tree as it takes time to build and distribute.

Last quarterly build started yesterday, finished 25 hours later, it included a package for Perl 5.40.3: https://pkg-status.freebsd.org/beefy20/build.html?mastername=142amd64-quarterly&build=5e9ac41ee645

In case you don't have IPv6:


Looks like those haven't been pushed to the package mirrors yet, or is in the process of doing so.

 

[SirDice]

On a side note, if you want to submit your port, make sure to work from main, not the quarterly branches.

 

[nxjoseph]

Can you share your Makefile too? Otherwise we can't help much.

 

[HayPhil]

Sure
