gnumake: *** No rule to make target `all’

by gregs on Apr.06, 2009, under *nix, mac, os x

I was using MacPorts to install ICU and Jam. After running the installer for the first time I got the following error message:

PLAIN TEXT
CODE:
  1. sudo port install icu jam
  2. Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command " cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_devel_icu/work/icu/source" && gnumake all " returned error 127
  3. Command output: sh: gnumake: command not found

Oops forgot to install XCode (you always forget to install something on a new machine :) ). Quickly ran the XCode installer, however when I ran the command again I got a new error:

PLAIN TEXT
CODE:
  1. sudo port install icu jam
  2. --->  Building icu
  3. Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command " cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_devel_icu/work/icu/source" && gnumake all " returned error 2
  4. Command output: gnumake: *** No rule to make target `all'.  Stop.

Turns out you need to do a cleanup before attempting to run the command again:

PLAIN TEXT
CODE:
  1. sudo port clean --work icu
  2. --->  Cleaning icu
  3. sudo port clean --work jam
  4. --->  Cleaning jam
  5. sudo port install icu jam

Time to continue the Mapnik install.
