wxwidgets fails to build on OSX

[epipping]

Issue description

Here's the output that I get:

In file included from ./include/wx/osx/private.h:4:
./include/wx/osx/core/private.h:55:10: fatal error: 'Carbon/Carbon.h' file not found
#include <Carbon/Carbon.h>
         ^
4 warnings and 1 error generated.
Makefile:28754: recipe for target 'basedll_filefn.o' failed

builder for ‘/nix/store/ab4il1siki6x8vbr8lmjr0mp472674bi-wxwidgets-3.0.2.drv’ failed with exit code 2

Steps to reproduce

E.g. nix-env -i wxmaxima.

Technical details

• System: OS X 10.11.6 Beta (15G7b)
• Nix version: nix-env (Nix) 1.11.2
• Nixpkgs version: "16.09pre83147.df89584"

Do you know whether wxPython 3.0 functioned before #15764 ?

[FRidh]

It seems like it should just be a matter of adding some dependencies for Darwin/OSX.
@copumpkin were you using Nix on Darwin?

[epipping]

@FRidh I don't, unfortunately. I've only tried this today, for the first time.

Same error here:

• System: OS X 10.9.5
• Nix version: nix-env (Nix) 1.11.2
• Nixpkgs version: "16.09pre-git"

Pulled from github.com/nixpkgs this morning.

I guess darwin.Carbon needs to be added (or darwin.apple_sdk.frameworks.Carbon)

@FRidh Dunno. @matthewbauer pull request says it fixes this issue; I'm trying that now.

[FRidh]

Seems it will use Cocoa now https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/16192/files#diff-820eed189b664d8e60bb47d4055b0189R32

Had wxmac installed and got this error message after building @matthewbauer's patch:

collision between ‘/nix/store/v937kg1xdjjdnr9pk2hn79jvqs9d12hk-wxwidgets-3.1.0/bin/wx-config’ and ‘/nix/store/8abyzj37rfxk82bdbmq48zsqsyc8in8k-wxmac-3.0.2/bin/wx-config’; use ‘nix-env --set-flag priority NUMBER PKGNAME’ to change the priority of one of the conflicting packages

uninstalling wxmac worked

~/src/nixpkgs$ nix-env --uninstall wxmac
uninstalling ‘wxmac-3.0.2’
~/src/nixpkgs$ nix-env -i wxwidgets-3.1.0

This still fails when building 2.8 (default version) due to wxGTK being unable to find specific framework versions (10.6) of Carbon. The default go-to is to download the 10.6 Carbon version and pass the argument to the configure script. How should we go about fixing this?

I have a PR-ready version of the package which pulls in all appropriate frameworks (Carbon, Cocoa, CoreServices) listed here: #21410 .

(triage) Steps to reproduce from this ticket doesn't fail currently (probably because it uses wxMac30 now). Is there still a problem?

[matthewbauer]

Looks like we can close this.

[vcunat]

Yes, seems OK on Hydra.
