cmake-bootstrap fails to configure on Sequoia 15.1 on ARM64 - all three mirrors are missing cmake-bootstrap-3.9.6_0.darwin_24.arm64.tbz2

This error existed back in macOS 15.0 as well just reporting it now.

Look at each of these mirrors and they all have cmake-bootstrap-3.9.6_0.darwin_24.x86_64.tbz2 but don't have cmake-bootstrap-3.9.6_0.darwin_24.arm64.tbz2

I installed it on Sequoia arm64 without any trouble just now:

% port -v installed cmake-bootstrap
The following ports are currently installed:
  cmake-bootstrap @3.9.6_0 (active) requested_variants='' platform='darwin 24' archs='arm64' date='2024-10-28T20:47:50-0700'

A missing archive on our servers is not a bug. See #60756. We don't have archives for any port on macOS 15 on arm64 yet because I haven't set up that build machine yet.

When archives are not available, your computer builds from source. If that fails, as it did for you, that may be a bug, although it isn't a MacPorts bug in this case.

Your log says:

:info:configure Error when bootstrapping CMake:
:info:configure Cannot find appropriate C++ compiler on this system.
:info:configure Please specify one using environment variable CXX.
:info:configure See cmake_bootstrap.log for compilers attempted.

We would need to see the contents of cmake_bootstrap.log to know for sure, but this seems like a duplicate of many previous cmake-bootstrap-specific tickets (#70716, #70884, #70925, #71061, #71067), which are duplicates of the generic #70750 tracking this issue.

It is a bug in the Apple command line tools 16 updater. The fix is at ProblemHotlist#clts16.
