cargo build - "Could not compile `neovim-rs`." under OS X 10.11.3 #47

Closed xale closed 8 years ago

Build output here: http://paste.openstack.org/show/485548/

I'm following the (homebrew) instructions in the README, and everything up to the 'cargo build' succeeds.

I've Googled the error message and found a couple of similar reports, but none of the workarounds/solutions seem to apply.

Curiously, cloning and building the neovim repository directly works.

Any idea what I'm missing here?

Hmm, this is the same issue reported here, but that user said my changes fixed it. It may be a transient issue that goes away after some particular thing happens. I'll have to keep looking into this.

One thing from the README/build instructions just jumped out at me... there's a note about running brew install vte3.rb "directly in the project", (which I assume means "in the base directory of the repo") but Homebrew seems to have installed it in a common location, rather than local to the directory, since I just get an "already installed" message if I run it again after deleting and re-cloning the repo. Could this be related somehow?

...aaaaaand of course, having cloned the repo a second time and run a fresh build, it compiles without errors.

Another theory about what may have gone wrong: when I first cloned the repo, I assumed I had the Apple "Command Line Tools" installed, when I apparently didn't. Maybe I generated some weird build artifacts by trying to start a build without them?

Starting over after installing them seems to have been the solution.
