Scons and DESTDIR support

[Blair Zajac]

I'm working on building the 1.3.x branch on MacPorts. Like building
RPM, MacPorts installs into a DESTDIR that mirrors the PREFIX.

However, trying the same commands that mongodb uses to install, which is
also a scons project, fails.

Here's the output from `port -v destroot serf1`:

DEBUG: Executing command line: cd
"/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_www_serf1/serf1/work/1.3.x"
&& /opt/local/bin/scons install
--prefix=/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_www_serf1/serf1/work/destroot/opt/local

scons: Reading SConscript files ...
scons: done reading SConscript files.
usage: scons [OPTION] [TARGET] ...

SCons Error: no such option: --prefix

And here's the MacPorts portfile for serf1 that I'm currently using:

https://gist.github.com/blair/5989662

Is there DESTDIR support in serf's SConstruct that I'm not using
correctly? Does it need to be added?

Thanks,
Blair

In my script I currently use:

<exec program="${sconsApp}" workingdir="${serfDir}" >
<environment>
<variable name="PYTHONPATH" dir="${sconsPythonPath}" />
</environment>
<arg value="PREFIX=${buildRoot}/${platform}/release" />
<arg value="OPENSSL=../openssl-${opensslVersion}" />
<arg value="ZLIB=../zlib-${zlibVersion}" />
<arg value="APR=../lib" />
<arg value="APU=../lib" />
<arg value="APR_STATIC=yes" if="${static}" />
<arg value="install" />
</exec>

So PREFIX=<path>, in uppercase and no '--' prefix should work

So you do one build with PREFIX=/opt/local and a install with PREFIX=/opt/local/var/macports/build/serf1/destroot?

you should be able to do the following:
scons PREFIX=/opt/local
scons install --install-sandbox=/opt/local/var/macports/build/serf1/destroot

The libraries, include files and .pc file will then be installed under
/opt/local/var/macports/build/serf1/destroot/opt/local/[lib|include|lib/pkgconfig]

On Mac OS X you'll need to merge r2080 to fix the shared library id.

Thanks, I'm getting further with the build now.

The old system would install /opt/local/lib/libserf-1.0.dylib but it now
installs /opt/local/lib/libserf-1.dylib so it's causing failures for all
packages that depend upon it. How do I tell scons I want to name it
libserf-1.0.dylib?

I've been reading up on Mac dynamic library support at:
https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/developertools/conceptual/DynamicLibraries/100-Articles/CreatingDynamicLibraries.html

WIth that and the SHLIBVERSION that Bert mentioned in issue #112... I
think we can get this done up Right.
