analog 6.0.18: -DHAVE_PCRE is ignored

[Schamschula]

As I was updating the MacPorts Portfile for analog, I ran into the build error for pcre2.

However, MacPorts provides pcre2, so I added -DHAVE_PCRE to DEFS and -lpcre2-8 to LIBS.

Unfortunately, the build of pcre2 was again attempted, with predictable results.

Full log attached: analog-main.log

any luck on this thread?

Nope!

@Schamschula unfortunately I no longer have access to any Mac hardware to continue building for Apple. It went through fine when I last built it. Perhaps @figueredo-tec-br can advise as he merged pcre2

The interesting thing is that I personally use analog on my production FreeBSD servers. The FreeBSD ports version still is at 6.0.14.

They usually take a painfully long time to update. Debian is on 6.0.17 as of writing, so everything downstream of that is as well.
I am sorry that I don't have an answer for you on this one, I'll at reference @figueredo-tec-br again and see if he spots the request. It's just too expensive to maintain Mac building when this ws literally the only thing I would ever touch an apple product for.
