#455 0.18.1: No C++ compiler found. Please install a C++ compiler

[Ryan Carsten Schmidt]

We cannot compile geany 0.18.1 on Mac OS X 10.6 or 10.5 using MacPorts. It says it cannot find the C++ compiler, though it is of course right where it always is. geany 0.18 builds just fine. Here is the MacPorts bug report with more information:

http://trac.macports.org/ticket/24071

Note that MacPorts sets the CXX variable to the full path to the compiler, e.g. /usr/bin/g++-4.2 on Mac OS X 10.6. Perhaps geany doesn't like the full path, but we are setting it that way deliberately so we can be certain which compiler is being used, and other ports don't have a problem with this.

See http://lists.uvena.de/pipermail/geany-devel/2009-September/001370.html for the patch which broke the existing, working behaviour. Not sure how to solve this.

Maybe using Waf might be a workaround, for the meantime.

[Nick Treleaven]

I reverted the original commit:
http://lists.uvena.de/pipermail/geany-devel/2009-September/001370.html

So this should fix this bug.
