error with openh264 installation when installing AMC on Mac 0S 10.12 with macport

Added by Frédéric Moret about 1 month ago

Hi
I'm trying the install AMC with macports on my old macOSX 10.12 Sierra.

Error: Processing of port auto-multiple-choice failed

In the sites that are referenced above, the openh264-2.5.0_0.darwin_16.x86_64 version does not exist. There are many more recent versions of openh264 available. It's strange that they are not taken into account.

I tried to install openh264 with sudo port install openh264. But it also directs the system to install the same absent version.
I tried to download open more recent version of openh264 and install it manually. But when I try to install AMC, it does not take into account.

What can I do to specify the installing of other existing version of openh264 during the installing of AMC?
Thank you for your help.
Best

It is difficult to help without seeing what is in the log file. I haven't found any open ticket about openh264 on https://trac.macports.org/wiki/Tickets.

You could try to clean the failed install and try to install it again.

sudo port clean -f --all openh264
sudo port selfupdate
sudo port install openh264

In fact a ticket was present in trac but it was closed as a modification of the portfile for openh264 2.5.0 solved the problem. The port selfupdate should update the portfile on your computer and perhaps solve your problem.
