Thanks very much for mentioning this!!!!!!!!!!!

I had the same problem with py25-hashlib and py25-tkinter, and got no 
responses from anyone on how to fix, and so gave up on macports since if 
you can't install python libs, what's the point of anything. :)

John,

If it makes you feel any better, I'm going through the same battle right
now.  Did you get anything working?  I've been trying to use Tkinter, and I
get segfaults on show().

Are you getting the segfault from the same functions?

Aha! Nevermind. Still not working on Tkinter, but I installed the GTKAgg
backend and that works perfectly.

Still, it's curious that Tk shouldn't work.  It works for regular python but
matplotlib doesn't like it. Ah well, a mystery for another day.

Thanks,
Hunter

Subject: Port Verification
Message-ID: <fee4d890803011906s4016b472xbf22b1cd782716d8@mail.gmail.com>

I am trying to verify the xorg-libXt port.  It seems that
xorg-libXdmcp has now become dependant on xorg-xproto.  I checked the
history of the xorg-libXdmcp Portfile, and it hasn't been changed in 6
months.  So, the Portfile hasn't changed since I started.

I did my original testing less than 2 months ago.  The only thing that
I can think of that is different is I may have tested on an updated
version of OS X 10.4.11.  I am currently running a base install of OS
X 10.4.6 without running update.

Is there an easy way to validate ports?  The way I have been doing it
is very labor intensive (uninstall macports, remove all ports,
re-install macports, test port).  It would be nice if there was a way
to run in a chroot environment for development testing of ports.

Try port -t which enables tracemode. In this tracemode accesses to 
non-referenced files are prohibited.

But currently it still faces problems if some port is using e.g. 
/opt/local/bin/grep when it does not contain an explicit reference to it.

Subject: General Leopard Installation Recommendations - with Admin? Postgres,
	Postgis...
Message-ID: <CD11BEB2-2AAC-4F0D-845D-FEB8812F4785@grid.unep.ch>

Hi there,

I am using a Mac in the office for website development, database  
administration, design etc...

Now, as I am not coming from an admin-, but more from a casual-user- 
side, I did run into some admin/su/etc.-problems or challenges when  
installing & compiling postgres, postgis, etc.

So, I was wondering what you guys do recommend. In the moment, I am  
the only user and the only admin on the same time on the mac. But,  
from a admin/security perspective, there should be already a different  
account for me as a user and another one for the admin, no?

And on the next step, there should be another one for the postgres  
administration, no?

Can you give me a recommendation how to "better" (more efficient, more  
correct, not necessarily more "safe") setup my computer?

Thanks for any advice,

Stef

Only in certain specific situations would want to separate your user
and admin accounts in any UNIX system (and most of those situations
are for policy or legal reasons not operations safety). UNIX (and by
extension Linux, *BSD, and Mac OS X) systems can be setup to allow
privilege escalation via the "sudo" mechanism (certain more-tightly
locked down versions of UNIX (Trusted Solaris and SELinux among
others) also allow a user to change roles on the fly for specific
purposes. In all cases the privilege escalation or role change must be
authenticated.

All admin users in Mac OS X are allowed to use the "sudo" command to
perform administrative tasks and all sudo operations are logged.
Experienced administrators (and Mac OS X Server may provide some easy
way to do this) can make the sudo permissions structure far more
subtle than Mac OS X desktop supports in the System Preferences.

So, no, I do not see any reason to create multiple separate accounts
for performing different roles on your computer.

BTW, Windows up to XP did not support any mechanisms for privilege
escalation so separate accounts have to be created for everything, but
your IT folks quickly tire of constantly logging in/logging out and
simply begin working in their admin-rights enabled accounts (at a
former unit, per policy, every IT person had two accounts, one regular
and one admin and it was painful for automated systems to recognize
people who were using the "wrong" account to perform activities, but I
digress...).

> And on the next step, there should be another one for the postgres
> administration, no?

There should not be a separate account for this either. Now
maintaining separate accounts could lead to additional problems (I
speak from experience here) where an account is created for a specific
task and multiple people use it and suddenly you don't know who did
what when.

Worth pointing out here that this is an admin account capable of privilege
escalation to carry out-root-like functions - not the unix 'root' account,
which is a bad idea to log in as unless you need to, since any mistakes
there (such as accidentally deleting the entire filesystem) have repercussions.

(The root account has to be explicitly enabled on Mac OS X.)

On other unix boxes, you may well need to create something non-root,
where you'd do admin tasks by either sudo'ing (if available) or by
deliberately logging in as root first.

Message-ID: <24BA32A0-7A26-45BA-82C6-7A4C7FBD072D@boulder.nist.gov>

Hi all,


I'm attempting to install blt in MacPorts 1.6.0 (on an Intel MacPro)  
but it is not working. I have filed a bug on it:

<http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/14488>

Apparently Tcl/Tk version 8.5 conflicts with blt. Until this  
(hopefully) get fixed, does anyone know some kind of workaround so I  
can get this running - like maybe somehow install the 8.4 version of  
Tcl/Tk?


Cheers!
Frank

I agree this should be fixed. We definitely want to make MacPorts  
easier to use. I'm sending this to the macports-users mailing list  
also so that people see again that it's still a problem in 1.6.0. I  
don't remember if this has already been fixed in trunk. Our release  
manager has been busy with other things which is why there hasn't  
been a new MacPorts release in awhile, though we already have many  
new things in trunk that should be released.

It turns out that postgresql83 can't be installed with unixODBC  
present, since unixODBC has a file called "sqltypes.h".  It seems  
like the postgresql83 build ought to be fixed to ensure that it looks  
in build-local directories for include files before looking in /opt/ 
local/include.

(Sorry to be lazy, and not provide a patch -- since I'm not using  
unixODBC, I just uninstalled it and postgresql83 built fine.)

Subject: macports erlang build disables smp by default
Message-ID: <52736761-CA45-4A1A-AEE7-827383115522@dushin.net>

I thought I'd mention this to any macerlangers out there.  Discovered  
this testing some concurrency code, and saw the following in the  
erlang Portfile:

configure.args  --prefix=${destroot}${prefix}	\
		--enable-threads		\
                 --enable-kernel-poll            \
		--enable-hipe			\
		--disable-smp-support

There is an smp variant, though, which you can use to enable smp  
support.  I wonder if we should make this the default, no?  Are there  
some known bugs in the smp code?  (I know /my/ code runs 2wice as fast  
with it on... :)

Thanks for the very useful write up! I managed to get it installed and  
activated. Perhaps you could add something about deactivating the  
current version first so that is doesn't fail when trying to activate  
the older version. But I'm just a MacPorts newbie. :)

  I neglected to mention that I'm using Python 2.5 also. So I changed  
my py25-tkinter back to the 8.4 version using the following Portfile  
@30184:

<@30184>

That worked fine (and I had to download the setup.py and add it to a  
'files' folder). I then noticed that Tk needs to be downgraded to 8.4  
also. So I got Portfile @30811 of that:

<@30811>

But when I tried to 'port install' it, I get the following compile  
error:

frank$ sudo port install
--->  Building tk with target all

Any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong?

That's fairly general advice about MacPorts, not specific to  
installing an older version, so I don't know that it belongs in that  
particular how-to.

That's like this bug:

http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/13678

You must deactivate or uninstall tk 8.5 before you can build tk 8.4.  
I think this is a peculiarity of tk.

This problem was supposedly fixed in the latest version of the  
portfile, but still exists of course in the old version of the  
portfile you're using.

OK, that works. Thanks! But now when I try to run my python program, I  
get the following runtime error:

  File "./my_python_program.py", line 158, in <module>
     parent=Tkinter.Tk()
   File "/opt/local/lib/python2.5/lib-tk/Tkinter.py", line 1638, in  
__init__
     self._loadtk()
   File "/opt/local/lib/python2.5/lib-tk/Tkinter.py", line 1658, in  
_loadtk
     % (_tkinter.TK_VERSION, tk_version)
RuntimeError: tk.h version (8.5) doesn't match libtk.a version (8.4)

Any more suggestions for me?

Here's a reduced look at my "port installed" output.

   py25-tkinter @2.5.1_0 (active)
   python25 @2.5.1_4+darwin_9
   python25 @2.5.2_0+darwin_9 (active)
   tcl @8.4.16_0+darwin_9 (active)
   tcl @8.5.1_0
   tk @8.4.16_0 (active)
   tk @8.5.1_0


Cheers!
Frank

Did you install py25-tkinter while tk 8.4.16 was active or while  
8.5.1 was active? Maybe you need the latter. Try rebuilding it. (sudo  
port -ncuf upgrade py25-tkinter)

Python has to be rebuilt to link against Tk 8.5. Try that.

Guys, thanks very much. After uninstalling all my python add-ons I was  
able to re-install python25 and py25-tkinter and it appears to work.

Message-ID: <47CE3DBE.4050209@matzon.dk>

Hi all

I recently upgraded logrotate and in doing so, my logrotate.conf file 
was deleted. Instead I got a shiny new logrotate-default.
Fortunately I had a backup - but this is still a critical bug.

I am unable to login to the trac and report the bug - the login process 
stalls.

When searching for ntop failure to build I could only find

http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/14308

which does not apply in my case, but whose author mentions a ticket #13648, 
with - presumably - a fix, which ticket I could not find:

http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/search?q=13648&noquickjump=1&ticket=on

Any ideas?!?

TIA,

Message-ID: <C3593982-CA89-4E4E-9F2D-68D1CF9BB105@mwilden.com>

I'm new to Mac OS and to MacPorts and I could use some guidance.

A couple of days ago, I posted about the inability to build  
mod_python. There appears to be a problem building apr-1.2.12, which  
mod_python and others (like Subversion) depend on. A ticket was added  
for this (#14470). My questions are these:

1) Would this be considered a non-priority problem? Is it common for  
MacPorts to be unable to build vitally important tools like mod_python  
and subversion? Trust me, I'm not being snarky - I'd just like to know.

2) If that's in fact the case, what are the alternatives, if someone  
(like me) has been using MacPorts for other things? It appears (to  
this newbie) that you can't tell MacPorts, "hey, you don't need to  
build this - I built it myself," so it doesn't consider that it has a  
missing dependency.

3) Is MacPorts really just a convenience, and not something that one  
should depend on? Mr. Mod_Python (Graham Dumpleton) recommends not  
using it, for example. Again, I don't know whether that's true or not  
- I'm just interested in an objective answer.

This is NOT a flame. I respect and admire the MacPorts project, and  
I'm aware that the folks who are working on it are doing so for the  
good of the community, for no personal gain. The thing is, I'm a  
database guy - I just need some very basic functionality.

If someone could give their opinion on the questions above, I'd very  
much appreciate it!

Any guidance?

Sorry, I didn't notice this ticket (as it wasn't assigned or CC'd to  
me), and I'm the  maintainer of the apr port.

It looks like your issue is a duplicate of #14203 (it's a conflict  
with ossp-uuid) and you should be able to get things working by  
temporarily deactivating ossp-uuid, rebuilding apr, and then  
activating ossp-uuid after you get it installed. [There's more  
detailed information in the ticket].

no.

'vitally important' is in the eye of the user ;-)

Ports with a maintainer should all build (at least most of the time),  
but there are many ports without a current maintainer that may or may  
not have been tested recently.

By design, you can't do this. The rational for why is on website.

Modifying portfiles isn't hard, however, so it's often easier to fix  
the macports port (and submit a patch so others can benefit) than  
building and managing things by hand by yourself.

That's something you have to determine for yourself. Macports is a  
volunteer project. I'm sure if you wanted to pay someone to make sure  
everything that's important to you kept working, you could ;-)

That's interesting, and I would be curious as to why that would be the  
case.

I thought the developers named the file with "-default" was so it would be
renamed.  But I renamed the file logrotate.conf.sample anyway.  But it
must be renamed from that after install or it will be overwritten on the
next upgrade too.

Ntop is very broken and it is beyond my expertise to fix it.  Someone
needs to contact the developers and it will be a bit before I get to it. 
But all anyone can do is describe the symptoms and ask them.

It seems like the system is forgetting to put "gcc" at the front of the
command line when building Python extensions.  This same problem was
reported here not that long ago (maybe a month).  I sort of thought it would
be sorted out by now but I don't recall seeing anything about a fix.  I'm
running a "sudo port upgrade outdated" now just in case I missed something,
but I'm skeptical much will change.

Any thoughs on this problem?

I've seen this before, although no idea what causes it. Chances are if
you try installing again, it'll work.

Subject: TinyCA2
Message-ID: <7fccb3000803052202x1eb96857s3a0a4e934d958a94@mail.gmail.com>

Hello all --

I have worked on updating the TinyCA2 source code to include SHA-256
capability (default of the current version is SHA-1 but I think its time the
world moves forward a bit). The changes to the source code I have submitted
in an email back to the original maintainer (not the MacPorts maintainer --
I want the code to first be made available on the source web site and then
we can modify the MacPorts port for TinyCA2)

In the mean time, I'm educating myself about OpenSSL and creating a
Certificate Authority (such as for self-signed CA) in the PKI context. I
have been reading the RFC 3280 about PKI and X.509 ... there are some values
that can be entered (using TinyCA2 for example) that are passed to OpenSSL
on the command line for certain data structures that are used for creating
certificates. For example the X.509 extension:

4.2.1.8  Issuer Alternative Names
>
>    As with 4.2.1.7, this extension is used to associate Internet style
>    identities with the certificate issuer.  Issuer alternative names
>    MUST be encoded as in 4.2.1.7.
>
>    Where present, this extension SHOULD NOT be marked critical.
>
>    id-ce-issuerAltName OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::=  { id-ce 18 }
>
>    IssuerAltName ::= GeneralNames
>

TinyCA2, when it is first run, fills in some default values, for example for
the Issuer Alternative Names extension, these values:

issuer:copy
>

I've been pouring through the RFC and have not been able to find a source of
information as to what value space there is for example for the "issuer" as
in the text "copy".

Is anyone here well versed enough on this topic to know where this
information (the value space) is more defined?

Thank you for any suggestions.

Cheers,

Tabitha

Unfortunately this port has no maintainer, and I don't know how to

#14211 deals with issues building inkscape. You do not appear to be  
experiencing issues building inkscape, but issues configuring  
scrollkeeper.

scrollkeeper does declare a build dependency on perl5.8 so I'm not  
sure why perl wouldn't be on your system.

Is the perl5.8 port installed and activated? Is /opt/local/bin/perl  
on your system and does it work?

You may need to uninstall or deactivate your existing rrdtool before  
installing the new one? If that doesn't work, please file a ticket  
and assign it to Mark.

I've done a port clean aspell, same error repeats.  Any thoughts?

Similar (aspell issue) here - just acquired a new Macbook, and started
again (from scratch) the "macports saga" (I had an old PPC-based
macbook which had pretty much everything I needed installed ... in
time - so I wanted the same on the new one) - when trying a

$sudo port -d install kdepim3

it fails on aspell:

I'm skeptical.  I reinstalled from scratch a couple of weeks ago because of
build problems.  I'm only now getting back to the point where I have a
useful set of ports installed.

If I decide to reinstall, is there some way I can record what ports I
currently have installed then, after the basic install, reinstall those
ports with one command?

Failing that, is there some way I can debug this problem?  On my G4/10.4
system I installed py25-matplotlib with no problem.  I'm suspicious that
there's some Leopard/MacPorts thing going on here.

When I say install it again, I don't mean the whole of MacPorts, just
the py25-hashlib port.

Bizzarely it does work if you make a second attempt to install any of the 
various py25 libs that all fail with this same error.

However, you may be disappointed like me to to then get a segmentation 
fault for matplotlib when calling pylab.show()

Python from macports on leopard just seems to be nothing but trouble.  I 
ended up installing matplotlib manually from their site against the system 
installation of python and everything works painlessly.

Cheers,
Suresh

So port list installed seems to spit out something almost like what I need,
but I noticed that I seem to have two copies of several ports installed.  It
looks like fftw-3, oss-uuid, python24 and python25 are all installed twice:

What's up with that?  I suppose I should be able to do something like this:

    port list installed | awk '{print $1}' > currentports
    sudo rm -rf /opt/local
    sudo port install $(cat currentports)

but isn't there some other directory I need to remove?  Some sort of
MacPorts frameworks directory?

You'll get more joy, I believe, from:

	port installed

Note that "port list installed" will "list" each port that is  
installed. The list command simply tells you the latest version of the  
particular port. So that combination is not particularly useful. A  
more useful combination might be "port echo installed", which will  
provide much the same information as "port installed".

In either case, you're seeing multiple entries for some ports because  
you have installed, but inactive, versions of those ports. To find  
only the active versions, you might try:

	port echo active

Combine that with a pipe through cut and you'd have a list of all  
ports that are currently active. You could save that list away and  
then later pass the list to "port install" when you want to reinstall.  
Note that this would lose any particular variants you have installed.

	port echo active | cut -d ' ' -f 1

Hmm. I think the output of "port echo active" without the cut, would  
conveniently give you exactly what you need to replicate your setup  
_with_ variants. Almost as if I designed it that way! The only issue  
might be if the specified versions were no longer available.

Thanks for that.  There seem to be way too many similar commands for my
feeble brain to keep straight.

    James> In either case, you're seeing multiple entries for some ports

Ah, I see.  I missed that the version numbers were slightly different.
Consider this:

    % port installed | egrep python
      python24 @2.4.4_2+darwin_9
      python24 @2.4.4_4+darwin_9 (active)
      python25 @2.5.2_0+darwin_9
      python25 @2.5.2_1+darwin_9 (active)

One would think I should be able to uninstall the inactive ports, but I
can't:

    % sudo port uninstall python25 at 2.5.2_0+darwin_9
    --->  Unable to uninstall python25 2.5.2_0+darwin_9, the following ports depend on it:
    --->        py25-tz
    --->        py25-dateutil
    --->        py25-hashlib
    --->        py25-tkinter
    Error: port uninstall failed: Please uninstall the ports that depend on python25 first.

It doesn't appear that the port command is smart enough to realize that the
active version of the python25 port should be able to satisfy the stated
dependencies.

Thanks.  That does indeed work.  Kind of makes it hard to debug if the
problem disappears on the second try...

Hmm, I tweaked the configure.ac to search for libraries in a more  
sensible way, but at the moment autoreconf -fiv fails for me with the  
following, so I can't test my fix. I know very little about  
autoheader, so does anyone have any idea how to fix autoheader  
failures of this type? The AC_CONFIG_HEADERS seems to be called with  
an appropriate header file including '#undef BLAH' for these defines,  
and there are AC_DEFINE macros in configure.ac which look OK to my  
untrained eye.

There is a trivial workaround to get rmagick installed, though:

sudo port install rb-rubygems
sudo gem install rmagick

I'm tempted to suggest that the rb-rmagick port be altered to simply  
do this instead of building rmagick from source, but there may be  
connotations of which I'm not aware which make that a bad idea.

Other people have reported this, unfortunately I can't reproduce them
at all. matplotlib works fine for me on Intel Leopard.

I know, I'm trying to track down a socket issue at the moment that
doesn't exist with the system python.

Skip,

Unfortunately, this problem is common to many py25- ports.  See my report here:
http://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/macports-users/2008-February/009238.html

Or a trac entry for py25-zlib here:
http://trac.macports.org/projects/macports/ticket/13406

Glad you got it working.

I finally got py25-matplotlib installed.  Like an earlier poster though I

Is this enough for someone to debug with?  If not, how do I go about
installing debug versions of the various packages?  Is another interactive
backend supported for matplotlib?

Subject: where did GVim.app go?
Message-ID: <47D02CB7.70007@duke.edu>

I haven't updated in quite a while, as I was waiting for things to calm down 
after Leopard, but I just updated vim-app and notice there there's no longer a 
GVim.app.  This was particularly useful as I could drag text files onto it and 
have it spawn off a Vim.app for each one.  If I drag them onto Vim.app, they 
replace the currently-edited document, which is not quite as useful for me.  I 
don't see any new ports or variants, and I couldn't find anything in the 
archives.  Any ideas?

Thanks.

GVim.app is some binary which is working on PowerPC only. Unfortunately, 
I don't know whoever created it and how.

I don't like including binaries into ports at all, but I kept it 
available on PowerPC; but it is not installed on Intel.

If you are able to provide a GVim.app for Intel (best in source form, so 
it can be maintained), I would be glad to include it into the port again.

There are the wxpython and gtk2 variants. Give those a try, this is a
strange problem as I am unable to reproduce these segfaults on Intel
Leopard.

I'll give the WXAgg backend a try.  If you would like some help debugging
the Tcl problems drop me a note (skip at pobox.com).

Ah, cool. How does a ticket get assigned? Was there something I could  
have done?

I had in fact installed postgresql83 by mistake, and that seems to  
relate. However, after uninstalling ossp-uuid and building apr, I  
received the error: misc/unix/rand.c:39:18: error: uuid.h: No such  
file or directory. The places on my system where that file exists are

and the output from sudo port install apr is

I don't think I -can- determine this for myself. I don't even know how  
I would do such a thing without much, much more experience with  
MacPorts. That's why I was asking the community at large.

It's annoying, I agree.

Thanks very much for your comments, not only on how to solve my  
problem, but also on MacPorts in general!

I think this happens for a lot of tickets. Really good would be someone 
volunteering as a ticket wrangler to assign all new tickets to the 
according maintainer. Could be done by anyone and it is definitely a way 
of contributing to MacPorts in order to "give somthing back".

I don't know if assigning tickets can be done by the reporter 
only/committers/anyone.

See
    http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/14552#comment:2
Does the latest aspell work for you?

If not, please attach the output of
    sudo port -dv install aspell
to the ticket.

It doesn't.  Furthermore, I've symlinked the built in install-info (the 
result of which install-info) to the one that aspell is calling, and 
gotten the same error.

I tried that but get this traceback:

Given that py25-matplotlib didn't depend on py25-gtk, my guess is that it

Nevermind, I think.  As it turns out if py25-gtk is already installed the
matplotlib build process will recognize its availability.  This is a bit
confusing, especially since the installed port lists as

    py25-matplotlib @0.91.2_0+tkinter

It would be kinda nice if it could somehow relay the fact that it also
supports gtk.

Subject: macports, gprof and leopard?
Message-ID: <8CDAF288-9BBC-4796-8214-FE7785D2A608@gmail.com>

Hello,

Last week, I changed from Tiger (10.4.11, Xcode 2.4.1, MP 1.6.0) to a  
fresh install of Leopard (10.5.2 and Xcode 3.0).  I'm now finding  
that /usr/bin/gprof does not profile a program compiled with gfortran- 
mp-4.2 and its -pg flag.  I'm pretty sure this worked in the past (am  
I wrong?).

I thought perhaps it had to do with the system's gprof not being  
compatible with macports-supplied compilers, so I installed the  
binutils port (as gprof is provided by binutils on my Fedora box), but  
no auxiliary gprof was installed in /opt/local/bin.

Does anyone have gprof working with port gcc42's gfortran in Leopard?   
How can I make this work?

In the meantime, I started using Xcode's Shark, which is an incredible  
tool (honestly: much better than gprof.  I will probably continue  
using it).  But I am still kind of curious as to what's going on with  
gprof.

sincerely,

Brian

When a ticket is opened, there is a CC field. By putting the
maintainer of the port's email address (obtained with the port info
command) into that box, then the maintainer will be informed of the
ticket.

Hi Stephen,

You do need an updated version of the transcode portfile for leopard;
it's ready and making its way into the repository.
However, the problems you're documenting here regard ffmpeg. Try
installing it separately first. The transcode portfile is appended.

description Video and audio processing tools
long_description    transcode is a suite of tools, all of which are \
            command line utilities, for transcoding various \
            video, audio, and container formats, running on a \
            platform that supports shared libraries and threads.\
            \
            Decoding and encoding is done by modules that are \
            responsible for feeding transcode with raw video/ \
            audio streams (import modules) and encoding the frames \
            (export modules). \
            \
            It includes a variety of video and audio filters, \
            including (but not limited to) video de-interlacing, \
            audio resampling, framerate conversion, different \
            resizing algorithms, smoothing, sharpening, denoisifying, \
            and cutting.

Did you already open a ticket in Trac for this? I can't find one. Or is 
this your initial submission of the update?

Due to the way that matplotlib build system works it would be very
difficult to do what you suggest.  The tkinter, wxpython and gtk
variants setup up the default backends and ensure that the appropriate
dependencies are installed. However, if you already have the py25-gtk
installed, for example, then the matplotlib build system will find
this and build the required backend even if you didn't specify the gtk
variant.  I'm open to suggestions if you can come up with a better way
of doing this.

=================

I checked the ..../trunk and ..../destroot directories and they are  
there. Does this mean that the ffmpeg portfile also needs to be updated?

This is the first I heard of different variants.  I'm giving it a try now.

None.  I'm just constantly amazed at the complexity of MacPorts (not always
in a good way).

*sigh*...  Here's one example:

    % sudo port uninstall py25-matplotlib 
    --->  Deactivating py25-matplotlib 0.91.2_0+tkinter
    --->  Uninstalling py25-matplotlib 0.91.2_0+tkinter
    % sudo port install py25-matplotlib +gtk
    --->  Fetching py25-matplotlib
    --->  Verifying checksum(s) for py25-matplotlib
    --->  Extracting py25-matplotlib
    --->  Applying patches to py25-matplotlib
    --->  Configuring py25-matplotlib
    --->  Building py25-matplotlib with target build
    --->  Staging py25-matplotlib into destroot
    --->  Installing py25-matplotlib 0.91.2_0+tkinter
    --->  Activating py25-matplotlib 0.91.2_0+tkinter
    --->  Cleaning py25-matplotlib

I asked for the gtk variant.  Why was the tkinter variant installed?

There is no gtk variant (there is a gtk2 one, which may be what you  
wanted).

That port is setup to automatically add +tkinter if a conflicting  
variant isn't set.

Yet, amazingly, it didn't complain.

That's by design, one reason why is so that you can set variants that  
you always want selected (say +no_x11 or +ipv6) in your macports.conf  
file and it won't cause install failures for ports that don't have  
that variant defined.

Hmmm...  That leads to a follow-on question.  Can this macports.conf file be
used to globally get all C/C++ code to be compiled with -g?  If not, is
there some way to do it once (not editing every portfile)?

Thx,

It doesn't complain because MacPorts allows variants to cascade to  
dependencies--for example, if you had nothing installed and specified  
"py25-matplotlib +gtk2 +quartz", then despite the lack of a "quartz"  
variant for py25-matplotlib, all other ports (e.g. gtk2) would be  
installed with it.

So what's the problem? More inconsistencies in the portfiles?

Thanks.

The problem is the port or the software is apparently broken. This  
issue has already been reported:

Regular users cannot assign tickets. I don't know why we don't allow  
this.

Regular users can set the Cc field when tickets are created, but not  
after. I don't know why we restrict this either.

Did you clean first?

sudo port clean --work apr
sudo port install apr

That is correct. The port command is non-smart in this regard. You  
have to force it.

sudo port -f uninstall python25 at 2.5.2_0+darwin_9

Shouldn't the existing PowerPC binary work on Intel Macs through  
Rosetta?

"sudo port install graphviz +gui" installs a PowerPC app even on  
Intels. No problem.

That worked! apr builds fine and so do the dependencies. However,  
mod_python itself does not build.

Subject: Upgrade to Leopard mostly smooth, but has small glitch
Message-ID: <87EE4872-0C12-4F21-B47E-D7E89A76CCC2@mac-specialist.com>

I just installed Leopard on iMacG5 and everything went off very well.

However when I restarted and looked at all the usual preferences, I  
launched the terminal and tried :

[2008.07.03](02:06PM) -> [username] ~ $ ps aux | grep httpd
username   305   0.0  0.0   599740    388 s001  S+    2:07PM   0:00.00  
grep httpd

     --> which showed that Apache was not running, so I tried :

2008.07.03](01:59PM) -> [username] ~ $ sudo launchctl load -w /Library/ 
LaunchDaemons/org.macports.apache2.plist
Password:

launchctl: Dubious ownership on file (skipping): /Library/

     --> And that didn't work so well, so I tried :

apachectl -k start

modify limit: Invalid argument

     --> which showed an error on line 70 of apachectl
     --> but it tried to see if it launched anyway, and it did as it  
shows below

Did I understand correctly that you had Tiger, installed MacPorts and  
several ports, and now upgraded to Leopard and are trying to continue  
using the ports that were already installed? If so, I can't recommend  
that. I suggest reinstalling MacPorts and your ports from scratch.  
Ports may need to build differently on each version of Mac OS X.

Subject: g++-mp-4.2 executables bad on leopard?
Message-ID: <EC986015-077F-44A1-BB79-54346D8D57CF@maubi.net>

I was poking around at the octave build on Leopard (bug 13686), and
I'm suspicious that g++-mp-4.2 is generating bad executables.

The first snipped below is a simple program that fails in the same way
that "munge-texi" fails in the octave build.  It's simply populating a
std::map from a file with key=value pairs.  Save this as "bug.cc",
them compile with:

   /opt/local/bin/g++-mp-4.2 -g -o bug bug.cc

and then give it a whirl...

Has anyone else seen problems like this?  My weak attempts at googling
turned up nothing that seemed relevant to me.  Just wanted to check
before filing a new bug...

thanks!

A couple additional data points:

   * gdb doesn't really seem to grok executables built with g++-mp-4.2

   * This problem doesn't happen with Apple's "pre-release" g++-4.2

That seems really cumbersome. If it is necessary, any way that the
MacPorts team could whip up a script to migrate ports to a new OS
release?

or will a simple for loop (for i in `port installed`; do . . . ) do it?

But on to the OP's question, httpd is running? What do those lines do
if you run them in the Terminal?

% export ULIMIT_MAX_FILES="ulimit -S -n `ulimit -H -n`"
% echo $ULIMIT_MAX_FILES

and as a hint, if you install BBedit's command line tools, you can
simply type "edit <filename>" instead of all that other stuff. Or use
TextWrangler, for those who are short of coin. It has the same
facility.

I feel it's necessary. Consider all the ports you currently have  
installed that have a "+darwin_8" variant. If you upgrade to Leopard,  
your OS is now Darwin 9, but you still have +darwin_8 variants. If  
you upgrade those ports, they'll still keep the +darwin_8 variants as  
long as those ports still define those variants. Also, if those ports  
define a +darwin_9 variant, during upgrade, you'll acquire that as  
well, so now your port will be installed with "+darwin_8+darwin_9"  
which is not correct and could cause unexpected behavior.

Consider also the case of the php5 port. The +apache variant, as it  
is currently written, uses the Apache 1.3 server Apple has in Mac OS  
X 10.4 and earlier. If you upgrade to Leopard, in which Apple's  
Apache is now version 2, php5 won't work anymore, because Apache  
modules need to be recompiled to work with a different Apache  
version. To generalize, there may be variants that can only be used  
on certain OS versions, or that work differently on different OS  
versions, so ports should be recompiled when you upgrade to a new  
major OS release.

MacPorts itself may behave differently. For example, there was talk  
about using new facilities in Leopard for modifying the user's PATH.  
That specific example won't apply since it was ultimately decided not  
to use those facilities. But consider the case of upgrading from  
Panther to Tiger. If you had any ports installed that need  
startupitems, you should rebuild those ports so they'll be turned  
into launchd plists instead.

One could probably script such a reinstall, but I'm not going to  
right now. The steps would be: get the name and variants of each  
installed port, and whether or not it's active. Uninstall each port  
(optional?). Move aside all directories where MacPorts has installed  
things (/opt/local, /Library/Tcl/macports1.0, /Applications/ 
MacPorts). Install MacPorts from the appropriate disk image for your  
new OS. Install each of your previous ports with the right variants,  
deactivating those ports that were originally inactive.

BBEdit's command line tools are called "bbedit" and "bbdiff".

TextWrangler's equivalent command line tools are called "edit" and  
"twdiff".

These also works with the EDITOR variable, with .e.g. MacPorts.

export EDITOR=edit
port edit MacPorts

The easiest way would be if `port upgrade' removes the installed 
platform variant and replaces it with the current one. Or will that have 
any other consequences?

No. It tries to reinstall the same variant set as installed. So if
+darwin_8 was chosen automatically on the initial install, upgrade
chooses +darwin_8 again, even if you are now on darwin_9.

Even if it works, I think we should stop shipping binaries in MacPorts.
After all, this is a source distribution.

I included two very handy scripts for Leopard at the bottom, if you  
don't like them, please ignore them.

"edit <filename>" didn't work for me using a shell worksheet

port installed > ~/installed_ports.txt
edit ~/installed_ports.txt
-bash: line 4: edit: command not found

instead of using :
open -a /Applications/BBEdit.app ~/installed_ports.txt

I should have used an existing shell script

# shell script : bh_open
# ------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/bash

if [ -a /Applications/BBEdit.app ]; then
	open -a /Applications/BBEdit.app $1
elif [ -a ~/Applications/BBEdit.app ]; then
	open -a ~/Applications/BBEdit.app $1
else
	open -a /Applications/TextEdit.app $1
fi
# ------------------------------------------------

and just call it from the Terminal :

bh_open ~/installed_ports.txt

Even though there was an error on line 70, it launched Apache and php  
seemed to be working fine, I am sure you are absolutely correct, and  
at some point I will begin having problems, so you are right, I will  
bite the bullet and delete the /opt directory, and start over again.

Thanks very much to all who responded.

There were a few of things I did not like about Leopard :

( 1 ) Blue/White background stripes in the Finder window (fixed in  
script finder_utility.scpt)
( 2 ) Translucent Menu Bar (fixed in script finder_utility.scpt)
( 3 ) Borderless Windows
( 4 ) Inability to close the Sidebar without closing the Toolbar  
(fixed in script stack_windows.scpt)
( 5 ) Lost hierarchical menus on {folders. disks} on the Dock (fixed  
in OS X upgrade 10.5.2)

I know I will probably be criticized for posting these but they have  
turned out very helpful for me, and hopefully they will help someone  
else on the board. The problem with the sidebar causes the windows to  
take up too much room, causing a lot of clutter if you are working  
with several open windows. The second script somewhat addresses the  
problem.

I hope this doesn't make anyone angry that I contributed these, even  
though it is not the right board...

This script takes care of items ( 1 ) and ( 2 )

You don't need a script.  You just need to update to 10.5.2 and use  
the Desktop preference pane.

Since emacs is also the only editor anyone could ever need, I don't  
understand the need for the other scripts.. :-)

Surely this does not work? "-a" is "and". Do you mean "-f" or "-x" perhaps?

Personally I'd have just looped over the choices. And you should really
quote the $1, otherwise a filename with spaces in it will bite you one
day:

  #!/bin/sh
  for app in /Applications/BBEdit.app \
             $HOME/Applications/BBEdit.app \
             /Applications/TextEdit.app
  do
    [ -x "$app" ] && exec open -a "$app" "$1"
  done
  echo "$0: can't find something with which to open $1" >&2
  exit 1

Thanks, I couldn't find any info on how to fix the problem. It's ok  
anyway, with the script there are three choices, {white, gray,  
translucent}

I used emacs until I discovered BBEdit, and emacs became but page in  
history...

BTW :

( 1 ) have any idea what preference I need to set to get the window  
borders back ? I hate border-less windows...
( 2 ) what can be done to set the {sidebar width : 0} without having  
to hide (losing) the Toolbar ?

I like having the toolbar, but I hate being forced to have the sidebar  
open. When you have several windows (12-15) open, especially if you  
are trying to compare them side by side, having the sidebar open  
forces the window to be inconveniently larger.

People get used to working a certain way for several years, then  
someone arbitrarily decides that after years of having a particular  
option available to the user, they are just not going to let them have  
it anymore. What skin is it off the programmer's nose if I want to  
close the sidebar, to me it's a nuisance.

A bully approach, wouldn't you say ?

I think major changes in the way one works should be handled as a  
preference. The computer is supposed to be a tool to help us, and  
removing backward compatibility is just wrong, especially in something  
like the sidebar which does not affect the operating system, but  
certainly affects the way I work...

I am sure as they sat around the table while trying to decide what  
features to include in Leopard, someone decided that "The user is too  
stupid to come out of the rain, so we'll protect them from themselves,  
and prevent them from closing the sidebar. That will improve the user  
experience !"

You can tell I hate to be bullied !

Did you install the command line tools when you installed BBEdit or
TextWrangler?

I did, but in the past when I've installed a new major version of the  
OS, I've reformatted the drive and installed all the latest versions  
of the applications. For some reason this time, the installer didn't  
ask me if I wanted to archive the old OS, it appears to have installed  
right over Tiger. This made me think that perhaps the changes to the  
core OS, other than the interface were probably not that significant,  
and that is why I tried to run apache without having to install all  
new ports.

What Ryan said makes sense about the Darwin 9 stuff, so tomorrow I  
will delete the /opt directory and start over. I've got a shell script  
that installs everything for me, moves files around, creates aliases,  
and does some other things, and this will give me an opportunity to  
fine tune the small items that need refining.

I will try to re-install the command line tools

Hi,

Tried installing wxWidgets and received the following -

Seems all repositories have same problem. Can someone shed some light

Well, when source is not available, or its compilation is  
problematic, binaries are our only hope to get the software into  
MacPorts. Examples:

graphviz +gui is difficult to compile; a new gui is being written  
which will hopefully compile easier, but it's Leopard-only
blender compilation is complicated
oracle-instantclient has no source available
isightcapture has no source available
minivmac is stuck at 2.8.2 because compiling 3.0 and later requires  
running a program within minivmac.... so we either bootstrap with a  
binary or just install the binary and be done with it

I'm sure there are other examples.

The only place that file is located is libsdl.org. It works for me.  
Please try again.

I received the same error (Intel, Leopard) when attempting to build  
id3v2.

I simply repeated the port command
	sudo port install id3v2
and it appears to have installed properly.

This sequence

	sudo port install id3lib
	sudo port install id3v2

does not give the error. My assumption is that the implicit  
(dependency) install of id3lib isn't quite complete when id3v2 tries  
to build.

Doesn't look like it:

$ port search twinkle
No match for twinkle found
$

best thing to do is file a Port Request ticket at http://trac.macports.org

Looks like a readline issue, do you happen to have a local readline
installed in /usr/local or somewhere else? Try adding
--enable-readline to the configure call.

The first thing I saw on this site is:
"Twinkle is available for Linux only".

Whatever that means. At least it is available in FreeBSD, too. This 
makes it likely that it can also be compiled on Mac OS X.

Follow Adam's advice and open a Trac ticket for it.

Subject: Maintainer away tracking
Message-ID: <47D48A05.2080301@macports.org>

Hi,

It happens from time to time that some maintainer is busy with work or 
school, has to move, is on vacation or attends some other event which 
prevents him from taking action on new tickets.

So I want to setup a new wiki page (like MaintainerAway) where anybody 
can add himself with a small explanation how long he is going to be away 
and maybe also why.

If someone adds himself onto this wiki page all of his/her ports will be 
treated like if they have openmaintainer on them, so anybody can commit 
updates without explicit permission. This should be taken like a 
temporarily openmaintainer status. Or the maintainer could also add 
someone else who should take care of his/her ports for this time.

The main advantage would be that the 72h delay does not have to pass as 
the maintainer will not answer anyway.

The wiki page could look like this (with a proper table, of course):
maintainer1 at example.org | 2008-04-01 to 2008-04-10 | On vacation, please
                                                      ask foobar@
maintainer2 at example.org | 2008-03-14 to 2008-04-01 | Exams

Of course this would also need to be documented in our guide.

Any comments appreciated. Do you think this would be an improvement to 
our infrastructure?

Rainer

PS: I am writing to both lists as I think this is also an interesting 
topic for our users.

I agree. http://caml.inria.fr/ appears to be down, as does ftp:// 
ftp.inria.fr/ . You could try to contact the administrator of that  
server, if you can find out who that is. In the mean time, you can  
try to find "ocaml-3.10.1.tar.bz2" elsewhere (try googling it) and  
manually drop it into /opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/ocaml/ and  
MacPorts will use it.

Side note: 3.10.2 appears to have been released at the end of  
February so perhaps the port should also be updated.

Subject: gtkam - How to request a port?
Message-ID: <1205134291.40527e9cbcsi@myrealbox.com>

I'd like to request that the gtkam program be ported to MacPorts: 

  http://www.gphoto.org/proj/gtkam/ 
 
This is a GTK-based, GUI front-end to libgphoto2 and gphoto2, both of which I've successfully installed under Leopard, using DarwinPorts. I later found that these packages are both available in MacPorts. 
 
These programs allow using a wide variety of digital cameras which are otherwise unsupported. 
 
Download of gtkam 0.1.14 is available from: 
 
   http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=8874 

Is this list the proper venue for the request? 
 
Thanks!

Yes... MacPorts used to be called DarwinPorts...

You should file a port request ticket in the issue tracker:

http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets

The best way to get a port added is to write the port yourself. The  
guide also explains how to write ports.

Hi all,

I am running into an error with port selfupdate during rsync of ports tree.

I get

I don't see a ports/www/lws/.Portfile.4JRuUN

Is my ports tree hosed? Or can I manually fix it?

That was just a stray temp file on the server left over from a failed  
sync. I removed it earlier this morning so you shouldnt get the error  
anymore.

Subject: MacPorts dmg installer hangs up, does not finish ?
Message-ID: <E06520BB-7B8D-4374-AEE3-19825DE77F5A@mac-specialist.com>

I am running OS X 10.5.2 on an iMacG5 pentium machine.

I just downloaded MacPorts-1.6.0.pkg and tried to install it several  
times, but it always hangs up with the progress indicator about 3/4 of  
the way through, and never finishes.

I opened the /opt folder and there were a few items in it. "port" was  
actually there, so I tried using the terminal instead and tried "sudo  
port -v selfupdate" left it alone for a while but nothing happened, so  
I finally hit CTRL-C and deleted the /op directory.

Any ideas ?

The Installer.app provides a log (Window -> Installer Log), what does it 
say there?

I downloaded the MacPorts-1.6.0.pkg again, and this time it installed  
after several minutes.

After the installer finished I tried :

$ sudo port -v selfupdate
Password:
Synchronizing local ports tree from rsync://rsync.macports.org/release/ 
ports/

but here the terminal hangs up. (it hasn't done anything for about 10  
minutes)

Hi.  I've installed MySQL5 (mysql5 @5.0.51_0+server) on a G4 running  
10.4.10.

However, when I execute the following command:

	sudo launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.mysql5.plist

I get the message "nothing found to load".

Anyone know what is going on?

Have you yet enabled the launchd script? The instructions from  
MacPorts should have instructed you to issue `sudo launchctl load - 
w ...`, since, by default, launchd scripts are disabled and 'load -w'  
enables them.

I seem to recall the "nothing found to load" error message being  
reported for scripts with <key>Disabled</key><true/>.

Subject: Working cyrus-imapd installation but long server check in Mail.app's
	setup assistant
Message-ID: <C6D8A504-1AAB-4D69-B89B-7301FFB4A93A@mac-spezialist.de>

Hello,

I have managed to get cyrus-imapd working on Mac OS X 10.5.2 (client)  
but when I go through Mail.app's account setup assistant, after  
filling out the fields for the IMAP server, the message ?Checking  
connection to mail server localhost? takes one minute to go away.

Can somebody point out to me what I'm doing wrong here?



Here's what gets logged to imapd.log:
Mar 10 10:57:11 imap-test-server imap[326]: accepted connection
Mar 10 10:57:11 imap-test-server imap[329]: accepted connection

status 0
Mar 10 22:59:28 imap-test-server master[26]: process 326 exited,  
status 0



And here's what gets logged to auth.log:
Mar 10 22:58:11 imap-test-server imap[326]: no user in db
Mar 10 22:58:11 imap-test-server imap[326]: no user in db
Mar 10 22:58:41: --- last message repeated 1 time ---



Here's an account on what I did to get cyrus-imapd running:

- Install Mac OS X 10.5.1 from DVD
- Upgrade to Mac OS X 10.5.2 using combo package
- Install all available updates via Apple's Software Update
- Install Xcode 3.0 (not iPhone SDK version)

- Install MacPorts 1.6.0 using Installer.app
- Create missing .profile file in home directory
### BEGIN FILE .profile
export PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:$PATH
export MANPATH=/opt/local/share/man:$MANPATH
### END FILE .profile

- Install cyrus-imapd
$ port install cyrus-imapd

- Delete cyrus user created by MacPorts installation
$ dscl . -delete /Users/cyrus

- Add cyrus as RecordName to user _cyrus
$ dscl . -append /Users/_cyrus RecordName cyrus
- Change the home directory for the cyrus user
$ dscl . -change /Users/_cyrus NFSHomeDirectory /var/imap /opt/local/ 
var/imap

- Create cyrus user using saslpasswd2
$ saslpasswd2 -c cyrus

- Change owner of sasldb2.db to _cyrus and group to mail
$ chown _cyrus:mail /opt/local/etc/sasldb2.db

- Change owner of pwcheck to _cyrus and group to mail
- chown _cyrus:mail /opt/local/var/pwcheck
- chmod 750 /opt/local/var/pwcheck

- Add 'local6.debug	/var/log/imapd.log' to /etc/syslog.conf
- Add 'auth.debug	/var/log/auth.log' to /etc/syslog.conf
$ pico /etc/syslog.conf

- Create impad.log and auth.log
$ touch /var/log/imapd.log /var/log/auth.log

- Restart syslogd process
$ kill -hup `cat /var/run/syslog.pid`

i'm upgrading ruby  from 1.8.6_0 to 1.8.6-p111_1

because i want to install the latest rubycocoa (0.13.2) i wonder if the ruby
config is done with the --enabled-shared option


no prob installing rubycocoa without using macports ?

i mention that because, with the previous release of rubycocoa, installed
from a dmg, i get the following warnings :

2007-11-29 12:19:29.755 ruby[1129] WARNING: multiple libruby.dylib found:

rb_set_cocoa_thread_hooks is linked from a different library
(/usr/lib/libruby.1.dylib) than ruby_init (/opt/local/lib/libruby.dylib)

and i do have prob with threads within rubycocoa apps ...

Message-ID: <0C66BAE7-E389-4E44-98E7-05603E7E01ED@mac.com>

Hi all.  I can't get past line 1 of the initial install instructions  
after installing the 1.6.0 MacPorts DMG.

Platform: Quad G5, 2G Ram, OS 10.5.2, Xcode 3.1, X11 2.1.1

When I enter the following into the terminal...

sudo port -d selfupdate

I get the following error message:
sudo: port: command not found

port is in the root:opt:local:bin directory

Is there some variable in some file that the installer missed?

Also, some of the docs say to use -d, others say -v. A little  
inconsistency there.

Thanks in advance,
- Alex Zavatone

I tried to install macports using the MacPorts 1.6.0.pkg
on a system with
Mac Os X 10.5.2

Xcode 3.0

X11 2.1.1
I also updated the Xcode with a March 8 posting.

Got the message:

Subject: 'rsync' failure trying to install MacPorts 1.6.0 
Message-ID: <Lfl1H5aAH8+c092yn@spinn.net>

I had downloaded the MacPorts-1.6.0.dmg file but failed trying to install
it on my Mac Pro system (4 processors), apparently because 'rsync' failed.

This appears to be the same problem that Bill Hernandez wrote about ear-
lier, but I didn't see any solution offered.  Is there one?

Below are the particulars of my system, and what I've tried.  Thanks for
all help and suggestions.

                ===========================================

I'm running OS X.4.11, build 852167, and have installed both X11 (from the
Mac OSX install disk) and Xcode 2.5 (downloaded from the Apple site), in
that order.  X11user and X11sdk both show up in the /Library/Receipts
directory.  The result of typing 'uname -a' in Terminal (for clarity the
lines are indented and wrapped, with the continuation lines indented an
extra 2 spaces; the first line and the '=>' on the second are part of the
prompt):

              --------------------- end ----------------------

Neither '/usr/local' nor '/sw' directories exist.


During the MacPorts install (I have an admin account) the progress bar
went quickly to about the 80% point, then stalled, and then gave way to
a message that there was an error during the install and to try again.
Here are the contents of the MacPorts install log file:

Hello Alex,

you need to create a missing file or give the full path to the port  
executable. The latter solution means that you have to enter the  
following on the command line:

sudo /opt/local/bin/port -d selfupdate

The better solution is to create a file called '.profile' in your home  
directory. In this file you specify additional directories that are to  
be scanned for executables and manual entries. The MacPorts  
installation fails to create this file, so you have to create it  
manually.

To do so copy the following text?

export PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:$PATH
export MANPATH=/opt/local/share/man:$MANPATH

?then enter the following command into a new terminal window:

pico ~/.profile

Paste the text into the terminal window. Press ctrl-x to exit pico,  
press the 'y' key to confirm that you want to save and press the  
return key to confirm that the filename should be .profile.

The last thing to do is to close the terminal window and open up a new  
one. Now you will have access to the port executable just by typing  
'port'.

Best regards,

Adrian

Subject: Problem involving automake/aclocal versions while installing tripwire
Message-ID: <1205261671.7655.1241817805@webmail.messagingengine.com>

Hi, I'm setting up a new Tiger 10.4.11 machine, and I'd like to run
tripwire (as I used to do on my old Tiger machine).  I installed the
latest Macports a few days ago, and tried installing tripwire with the
usual 'sudo port install tripwire' command.  All the dependencies
download and build just fine, but when it tries to build the actual
tripwire source I get this:

<snip>

on your
         system.  You might have modified some files without having the
         proper tools for further handling them.  Check the `README'
         file,
         it often tells you about the needed prerequirements for
         installing
         this package.  You may also peek at any GNU archive site, in
         case
         some other package would contain this missing `automake-1.10'
         program.

>From googling a bit appears that normally aclocal and automake are kept
in sync, and the aclocal.m4 file generated by aclocal has its version
number embedded in it.  Automake is reading this file, and finds that
that the aclocal version doesn't match its (automake's) version, and
thus the barf.  It appears that the choices are to downgrade to automake
1.10, or run a 1.10.1 version of aclocal to generate an aclocal.m4 file
that automake will accept; the output above seems to suggest two
different actions.  I favor the latter option of generating a new
aclocal with the higher version aclocal utility.  Does anyone have any
hints on how to reach into the process to do the latter (generate with
aclocal version 1.10.1)?  I guess I could re-run the install again with
verbose turned on to see where it generates aclocal.m4, and then try
mucking with some script to redirect it to an as-yet-unfound version of
aclocal 1.10.1 somewhere in the directory under /opt...  any shortcuts
to solution appreciated!

Thanks in advance,

Kurt

I have an IMac (Intel ) with Os X 10,5 and and the  Panther(PowerPC)

So my issue has been resolved.

Ok, I rebooted and that worked.  Cool.

Awesome.  Works like a charm on my other mac.  Why doesn't the .DMG  
installer do this?

No "non compiler friendly" user is going to be able to get up and  
running without this information.

What has been written to the .profile file has little to do with  
compilation. This is a facility of the shell to make it easier for  
users to run commands. Instead of typing the full path you can type  
just the name of the executable you wish to run.

If the operating system wouldn't have the same settings for  
directories like /bin/ or /usr/sbin/ then you would have to type /bin/ 
ls to get a directory listing and /usr/sbin/diskutil to run the  
command line version of Disk Utility.

Thanks to Adrian's help, I was able to complete the install of MacPorts.

My goal in installing MacPorts was to get a ntop installed.  Checking  
for installation instructions for ntop on macports.org wasn't helpful  
at all; I couldn't find any instructions.  Luckily, back at the old  
darwinports.org there is a url for ntop, http://ntop/darwinports.org  
that actually contains installation instructions:

cd /opt/local/bin/portslocation/dports/ntop
% sudo port install ntop

One problem here is that if /portslocation/dports/ntop doesn't exist,  
then you must create it, cd to it and then sudo.  Even thou the  
instructions are clear, they should mention this to save newbies like  
me.

Once the directories are created, sudo port install ntop works  
wonderfully, installing all sorts files - that is until it gets to  
libcap.  Libcap can't be found in any of the following locations:
---> Fetching libpcap
---> Attempting to fetch libpcap-0.9.8.tar.gz from http://www.tcpdump.org/release/
---> Attempting to fetch libpcap-0.9.8.tar.gz from http://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/distfiles/libpcap
---> Attempting to fetch libpcap-0.9.8.tar.gz from http://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/distfiles/general/
---> Attempting to fetch libpcap-0.9.8.tar.gz from http://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/downloads/libpcap

---> Attempting to fetch libpcap-0.9.8.tar.gz from http://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/downloads/libpcap
Error: Target org.macports.fetch returned: fetch failed

Since I it appears that libcap is required to build and install ntop,  
what should I do from here?

Thanks in advance,

Did you mean http://ntop.*.com? That site is not affiliated with  
MacPorts at all and has been a source of much bad information (you  
might notice I avoid even writing something that could be construed as  
a link to it).

The place that you should have found information would be the  
[MacPorts guide][1], in section [3.1.8][2]. Where did you look  
instead? What would have guided you towards this location? (we want to  
be better at getting people there in the future).

These instructions are wrong. It should not be necessary to do  
anything but "sudo port install ntop", as with any MacPorts port.

It appears that tcpdump.org, the provider of libpcap, is currently  
inaccessible. If you can find libpcap-0.9.8.tar.gz elsewhere online,  
dropping it in /opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/libpcap will allow  
you to continue. Otherwise, you'll have to wait for the site to come  
back up.

Oops.  My mistake.  You are correct.  http://ntop.thatOtherDomain.com/ .

Since I first had to figure out how to install MacPorts on my macs, I  
opted for a .dmg.  I then had to figure out that I needed xCode since  
the .dmg doesn't check to see if it is installed and I installed  
that.  Then after installing it many many times with no luck, I  
finally found out how to join this list and ask a question, which  
Adrian kindly answered and I finished up editing the file that I  
thought the DMG would create, opened terminal and ran the self update.

I then looked on http://www.macports.org for available ports and  
entered ntop in the entry field.  I found a description of ntop but  
nothing to help me install it.  I clicked on Downloads under Available  
Shortcuts and it didn't have ntop info so I resorted to that  
information that I found prowling around that other site.

Originally, I was instructed from a nice user on Apple's OS X Server  
email list that I could install MacPorts and then I should visit  
ntop.*.com to get ntop.  It actually had instructions in reverse text  
about 1 page down.  So I tried them.  I had no idea that port install  
was needed, or how it was used or why.  Ignorance is bliss, right?   
Riiiight.  And here we are.

Thanks so much.  I'll be reading that in a bit.

Ahh, Ok.  So changing the directory is not necessary.  If the .dmg had  
properly set up my .profile file, the one key missing step, that part  
would have been a little less confusing to me.  I had to create that  
on my own as per Adrian's help

Almost.  :]

It's now waiting for a lock on a file.

$ sudo port install ntop
Waiting for lock on /opt/local/var/macports/build/ 
_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync 
.macports.org_release_ports_net_libpcap/work/.macports.libpcap.state

The contents of that file is the following text:
target: org.macports.main

Thanks so much Chris.

Regarding the lock on the file, I deleted that file and it Libcap  
compiled.

Right afterwards, cgilib failed to build since the terminal didn't  
know what the command "O3" was.  Details below.

Panther is Mac OS X 10.3,
Tiger   is Mac OS X 10.4,
Leopard is Mac OS X 10.5

You have 10.5, so you need the Leopard disk image.

OK; the reason there isn't information for "installing ntop" is  
because all ports install in the same way. We can look into repeating  
that information on the ports' pages too.

I don't know about this; maybe the port's maintainer, markd, would be  
able to help. It looks like somehow $(CC) is not set but I don't know  
why that would happen.

ntop is broken on 10.5 and I don't know what the fix is yet.  If someone
could ask the ntop support list it would be great.  I've been too busy to
do it.

The last time I saw this happen, simply cleaning and reinstalling fixed it.

sudo port uninstall cgilib
sudo clean --all cgilib
sudo port install cgilib

you're right :-)

$ locate readline

/usr/include/readline/history.h
/usr/include/readline/readline.h
/usr/lib/libreadline.dylib

thank you, it works :-)


but, it's not noticed in http://www.macports.org/install.php#source

what could install readline ? a mac os x update ?


approximately 6 months ago, i installed macports on the same computer  
without problem

will i need "--enable-readline" for any computer, or only for a few  
cases ?

i got

what does that mean exactly ?

is it because someone had not the time to code the complete uninstall

or can't it be automated because of a technical pb and i should

Have you upgraded to Leopard recently? If so, did you install the new  
version of Xcode? This kind of error often appears when people try to  
use Tiger's Xcode on Leopard.

It is a new iMac, and it came with Leopard on it, so I
presume that Xcode must be ok. How can I check it?

How can I install things with MacPorts? Sorry for my
ignorance, I am not very experienced with Mac. So far
I worked mostly on Linux, and now by using MacPorts I
just want to be able to use programs which are
originally developed for Linux (like dia in this case)

Thanks,
Olga

If it's brand new, it probably doesn't have Xcode (most Mac users  
don't have a need for a compiler and development environment, but  
MacPorts does). You'll need to install Xcode 3.0, either from the CDs  
that came with the computer, or [Apple's developer site][1].

No, Trac's permissions arent granular enough for what we want, so  
until I or someone else comes up with a plugin to work around it you  
just need to ask a developer to add you.... So which ticket are you  
interested in?

Subject: Apache Questions [was PHP Problems]
Message-ID: <47D811A0.6090600@sounddsl.com>


Folks,

I got some great suggestions a while back about what may be wrong with 
my PHP5 port and why it wasn't running.  However, I still can't make it 
work.

I think the problem may be in Apache itself - my setup, not the port - 
because when I try to open an html file on my machine using:
http://localhost

it comes back with:

*********************
Unable to connect

Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at localhost.

     *   The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try 
again in a few moments.
     *   If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's 
network connection.
     *   If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or 
proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
*********************

Likewise, if I use my local network IP:
http://10.0.0.2

it still can't connect.

If I open the files directly (via Finder) with Firefox they work fine, 
but with:
file::://opt/local/apache2/htdocs/index.html
as the URL, so I know it isn't going through Apache for that.

Running the port installed command searching for apache comes up with:

Mac-The-Knife:/opt/local/apache2/htdocs Captain$ port installed | grep 
apache2
   apache2 @2.2.8_0 (active)
   php5 @5.2.5_1+apache2+macosx+mysql5 (active)

If I read this correctly it means that Apache2 should be running.

I would appreciate any help I can get on this problem.

Did you check to see if apache was running/started? I am not an expert but
here is what I would try...
I'm not sure what version of OSX you are running but I have the latest
version of Tiger, fyi. Here is what I see when I run the following commands
from terminal:
ps -aux | grep httpd
I get results like:
...
www        158   0.0 -0.3    46292   6036  ??  S    Sat05PM
0:04.42/opt/local/apache2/bin/httpd -k start
...


if you dont see any httpd daemons in your process list, then apache might
not be running. You can start it by issuing the command
/opt/local/apache2/bin/apachectl start
Then check to see if localhost works in your browser.

Just because its installed doesnt mean its running. Do you see any  
httpd processes running when you run "ps auxwww | grep http"? Is  
anything listening on port 80 when you run "netstat -an"? You probably  
need to load the launch daemon that got installed. Some help text  
about this should have popped up during "port install", but you might  
try:

sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemon/org.macports.apache2.plist

If you don't have a Developer folder at your hard drive's root level,  
then you don't have Xcode.

If there isn't an app called Xcode in the Applications folder within  
the Developer folder then that's another telling sign.

Thanks Matt & William.  That did the trick.

I think that the machine locked up after the port finished running, but 
before I got around to readying what was on the screen.  So after 
re-boot I found it installed and active (according to the port command), 
but that apparently does not mean it is running.  Curious difference, that.

Anyway, after adding a symbolic link to my directory there is joy in 
Mudville!

Thanks, again, to all who helped me along.

"active" means a port is installed and ready for you to use.

Most ports don't have daemon processes that stay running. Those that  
do provide launchd plists, which you can use launchctl to start and  
stop as desired.

Ok, so your MacPorts was outdated. MacPorts 1.5 did not contain the  
sysroot variable which the port you're trying to install wants to  
use. So you need to update to MacPorts 1.6, which selfupdate should  
do...

...except it can't because you have no acceptable C compiler  
installed. Install Xcode 3 to get the gcc compiler, then try the  
selfupdate again.

Those are a normal part of the OS and should be fine. Adam was  
talking about different and possibly old or incompatible versions of  
readline that some people end up with in /usr/local.

Strange.

But it says: To customize your installation you should read the

6 months ago, there was no --enable-readline switch in MacPorts, and  
it always enabled readline. The default was changed to not enable  
readline support, and only do it at a user's request. See r31139,  
r31140, r31161. Ironically, this was supposed to *eliminate* readline- 
related problems, not cause them. So something must've gone wrong.  
Without --enable-readline, MacPorts should not be looking for any  
kind of readline files.

Does your network allow traffic on the rsync port?

Same question to you that I asked to Bill. Does your network allow  
traffic on the rsync port?

You know you wrote an iMacG5 pentium machine, right?  Which doesn't  
exist.  I'm sure you meant PPC, instead of pentium.

By the way, wait for about 5 minutes and it will be done by the time  
you get back from making coffee.

You might have to create a file after you are done.  I had to.  Let me/ 
us know after it installs if you can do the "sudo port selfupdate".

Cheers,

The rsync repo gets sluggish around 4-5am PDT every day due to server  
backups and maintenance. I'm actually going to try spreading out some  
of the load throughout the day to help... But right now, you can  
expect the selfupdate and syncs to take up to 10m. Normally on average  
they take 1-3m for me during the day.

I was thinking that the progress bar on the installer could be changed  
or some rsync verbose output added to make it not seem like a hang,  
but the performance is also an issue, and I am working on it.

Thanks
-Bill

There is a bug in the 1.6.0 dmg installer with the creation of  
the .profile file, which has already been fixed in trunk, but we have  
not yet released the new version. I believe our release manager is a  
bit busy with other tasks and hasn't had the time to make a new release.

-v is verbose output.

-d is debug output, which includes all the verbose output and a

no, nothing in /usr/local,

but, i just think,
i had readline already installed by macports, can it be the cause ?

here is my script :
http://dl.free.fr/gKF9RMNwH/installer-macports

i tried to make a script which is able both to install or to update  
macports, without the need for the user to tell what to do
i think i succeeded, except that it is economist neither in time nor  
in disk space

i use --prefix, --with-install-user and --with-install-group, but i  
think i needn't anything else
moreover, 6 months ago it worked fine
do you thing i may need someting without knowing that ?
(i'm searching wheather i could find all of that myself)

curious, in the ./configure phase i got :

checking readline/readline.h usability... yes
checking readline/readline.h presence... yes
checking for readline/readline.h... yes
checking readline/history.h usability... yes
checking readline/history.h presence... yes
checking for readline/history.h... yes

i have a computer to test MacPorts before put it on my working  
computer, so if you need ...

The servers were down for a planned move, I think you might have tried  
during that. Just to check for a firewall, does this result in a  
connection?

Subject: urxvt: installing files outside common directory structure
Message-ID: <20080313104410.GA8188@marco.fz-rossendorf.de>

during upgrade of `rxvt-unicode' I've got the warning

 "rxvt-unicode requests to install files outside the common directory structure!"

simple question: and where might that be??

I need to know in order to get the mirroring of the ports tree from desktop
to labtop machine via `rsync' right (much faster than installing everything
twice...).

I propose to modify the above warning and explicitly state (IN CAPS) what
files are installed where outside `/opt/local'.

thanks

joerg

Subject: libiconv problems after urxvt upgrade
Message-ID: <20080313111127.GB8188@marco.fz-rossendorf.de>

during upgrade from urxvt8.7 to the current version I got the error message

===================================CUT========================================

===================================CUT========================================
after which install proceded (apparently successful).

trying to start `urxvt' now throws the error:
===================================CUT========================================

Referenced from: /opt/local/lib/libXft.2.dylib

or later, but libiconv.2.dylib provides version 5.0.0 Trace/BPT trap
===================================CUT========================================

trying a

`sudo port deactivate libiconv@1.11_0+darwin_8'

yielded
===================================CUT========================================
Error: port deactivate failed: Registry error: libiconv not registered as
installed & active.
===================================CUT========================================
which seems inconsistent with the error message during urxvt install.

after a `sudo port activate libiconv@1.12' now everything seems to work, but
the above messages seems to hint at some grade of corruption of the internal state of
port. is this the case? can I sanitize/check it somehow without purging
everything?

I also notice that many packages appear both with
`port list active' _and_ `port list inactive'. how can this be?

and a last question: the "active" ports are the only one in use or are 
"inactive" ones (especially libs) secretly used by other ports? I noted
that a tentative 

 `sudo port uninstall libiconv@1.11_0+darwin_8'

showed me lots of ports depending on it which would need prior uninstall.
I understand that different versions of libs are needed at the same time but
why, then, is one declared "active" the others "inactive"?

so in short what's the difference between "active" and "inactive", especially
for libs?

Hi,

I'm trying to install Apache2, and it is failing with the following error:

Browsing to this location reveals that there is indeed nothing there.

I have run port selfupdate, and port sync (for good luck rather than 
actual use), and believe I am up to date with everything. Any 
suggestions please?

Thanks,

hi again,

"answering" my own mail keeps it in this thread at least:

in the meantime I had to realize that `w3m' (which was complaining just as
`urxvt' before I manually activated libiconv1.12) contrary to `urxvt' is not
happy again. even a `port uninstall w3m; port clean --all w3m; port install w3m'
did not help:

when starting `w3m' now. cpu time goes to 100% but w3m never pops up. here are
the first (and last) few lines from `ktrace':

afaics `w3m' hangs with some kernel call(?) before I issued SIGINT

so I have a _real_ problem now... it seems somehow related to the things going
wrong first with respect to libiconv@1.11 vs. libiconv@1.12. but what exactly
have I messed up and, more importantly, how can I repair it?

all this is with 10.4.11 on a G5 (won't upgrade to 10.5 before X11 is fully
functional again including fullscreen mode ...)

thanks in advance

This looks, at first glance, like Bug #12867 [1], but I think it's 
different as #12867 deals with checksums... and these files are simply 
missing.

It's really funny how we get used to the way things work. The first  
modem I ever owned was used on an Apple IIe and had a speed of 300  
baud, and never managed transfer a small (few kb) file without losing  
the connection. Transfers were usually a multi-hour ordeal with very  
poor results.

Today I am fortunate to live in an area that has Fiber. I tried to get  
Residential FIOS but there was no way to get a fixed public IP, so I  
subscribed to Verizon Business FIOS 15/2 MBit/sec service and that has  
worked out very well. I've gotten used to receiving transfers from  
Apple that are sometimes as large as 90 MBytes, in what seems like a  
matter of seconds. I may be wrong but it just seems really fast.

We as a whole seem to have lost all sense of perspective, such that if  
a file takes a few minutes to download we begin think the transfer has  
hung up. This is probably what happened, I should have gone to lunch  
and checked when I came back.  There was no way from the Terminal to  
tell whether anything was happening. Something that may help others is  
perhaps a message "This may take a few minutes, come back in a while..."

I see from your response, that I should have allowed at least 10  
minutes.

I began running into a number of other problems that forced me to  
force quit applications that continuously became non-responsive. I may  
be wrong, but I suspect that upgrading Leopard directly over Tiger may  
be the cause of some of the problems.

Yesterday I completely re-formatted my primary drive, did a clean  
install of Leopard, and spent several hours downloading and installing  
the very latest versions of each application and 3rd party utility I  
own.

After I read Ryan's comments on Darwin 8 vs. Darwin 9, I thought the  
smartest thing would be to re-format and install everything from  
scratch, not just MacPorts.

Today I will try to do a clean install of MacPorts, and see how that  
goes.

Thanks to all those who replied for the help...

I've never had a problem with rsync before. I haven't changed anything  
on the firewall for a while.

I began running into a number of other problems that forced me to  
force quit applications like Xcode, and others, that continuously  
became non-responsive. I may be wrong, but I suspect that upgrading  
Leopard directly over Tiger may be the cause of some of these problems.

Bill and Ryan,

Thanks to your prodding questions, I got the rsync problem fixed, as well
as another one (no FTP) that has bugged me for months.  The problem in my
case turned out to be the firewall in my GT-701 ActionTec DSL modem.

I called up ActionTec Support in near-desperation just to see if they
might have any ideas, and described the problems I'd been having.  The
response was that those were exactly the problems I'd get with the fire-
wall turned on, and that I should turn it off completely.  There were
four settings, High, Medium, Low, and Off, and mine had been set to High.

He explained that I was still protected from Internet mischief by the SPI
(Stateful Packet Inspection).  I'd never heard of SPI before, but looked
it up and found a Wiki explanation about it being a recent type of fire-
wall that checks to make sure that incoming packets really do belong in
the accepted incoming stream.  Ones that don't are rejected.

So I turned the ActionTec firewall off, and Bingo!, the MacPorts install
went to completion.  Even more cheering for me was that now FTP worked on
the Mac - tho it has been working fine all along from the Parallels Vir-
tual Machine running eComStation 1.2.  I certainly don't understand the
mechanics of all this, but am delighted that things now work.

I hope these observations are helpful to others as well.  Thanks much
for directing me to the relevant issue.

Managed to install with the following command:

sudo port install apache2 +no_bdb

We'll now see if I actually need BDB.

The files are not supposed to be there (in the MacPorts repository).  
They are supposed to be on the Oracle web site. MacPorts just always  
tries the MacPorts repository as a backup in case it can't find the  
files on the primary sites. The problem is that the portfile still  
references the old SleepyCat download location. BerkeleyDB has since  
been acquired by Oracle. Erick fixed the fetch failure in r34991.

I'll resolve this ticket.

No, you need X11 and XCode according to the MacPorts install  
instructions. See the items marked 1 and 2 on the install page:

http://www.macports.org/install.php

The error "configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables"  
implies you dont have XCode installed.

Gnome-vfs just got updated to version 2.22 at the same time that glib
was updated to 2.16 (these are upstream updates). Once MacPorts gets
everything in sync with the GNOME 2.22 release which is a few days
old, then things should just work again.

Subject: Difficulties installing PHP iMagick with MacPorts ImageMagick
	installation
Message-ID: <270ABEA5-9D70-4AA6-BD55-7FB563350416@xs4all.nl>

I've installed php5 @5.2.5 and ImageMagick @6.3.9 with MacPorts 1.6 on  
Leopard. I then wanted to install the PHP wrapper for ImageMagick,  
namely iMagick. Since iMagick is not a port, I decided to follow  
recommendations and use

 > pecl install imagick

or rather, to avoid any confusion

 > sudo /opt/local/bin/pecl install imagick

The installation begin but always ends in the following error:

   checking ImageMagick MagickWand API configuration program...  
configure: error: not found. Please provide a path to MagickWand- 
config or Wand-config program.

After a lot of frutiless googling, I figured that the paths were the  
problem, I decided on a different approach and adapted the install  
instructions from the iMagic package to account for the MacPorts  
paths, thus:

 > cd /Users/elisevanlooij/Downloads/imagick-2.1.1/imagick-2.1.1
 > sudo /opt/local/bin/phpize && ./configure --with-imagick=/opt/local  
&& make && make install

This resulted in the hope-giving message:

specify the full pathname of the library, or use the `-LLIBDIR'

      during execution

Try running "sudo make install" (instead of "make install").

You might also want to consider making a port for imagick so that  
others won't have to go through what you went through to get it  
installed.

But note that it looks like this will install the module into /usr/ 
lib/php/extensions, which is for Apple's PHP, not MacPorts's PHP.

You will probably need to find some additional parameters to tell  
imagick to install the module in the MacPorts prefix instead.

Peculiar...

I don't know why MacPorts proceeds when it encounters an error  
activating a port. This only leads to further errors down the road,  
as you've seen:

No libiconv is active, because of the earlier error, so ports that  
require libiconv now explode.

Agreed. That seems inconsistent. Not sure how you got into this state.

What does "port installed libiconv" show now?

"port list" does not do what you think it does. "port list" does the  
following: for each port, display the current version (not the  
installed version).

You probably would rather use "port installed active" and "port  
installed inactive".

Yes.

No, inactive ports are not used at all.

The message shown by MacPorts is misleading. The message says "Unable  
to uninstall libiconv 1.11_0+darwin_8, the following ports depend on  
it" but what the message should say is "Unable to uninstall libiconv,  
the following ports depend on it" (in other words it should not list  
the version or variants). Since you already have a newer version of  
libiconv installed, it's perfectly fine to remove the older version.  
MacPorts just doesn't know any better. Educate it by using "-f" when  
uninstalling ports in such situations:

sudo port -f uninstall libiconv@1.11_0+darwin_8

> I understand that different versions of libs are needed at the same  
> time

That's not how MacPorts works. Only one version of a library can be  
used at a time. If multiple versions of a library are needed at the  
same time, multiple separate ports must be created. See for example  
apr and apr0, db41 thru db46, and many other examples.

> but why, then, is one declared "active" the others "inactive"?

When you "sudo port upgrade foo", the old version is deactivated and  
the new version is activated. If you don't want the old version  
anymore, you can then uninstall the old version:

sudo port uninstall foo @1.2.3

If you want MacPorts to automatically uninstall the old version  
during the upgrade, use the "-u" flag:

sudo port -u upgrade foo

This will fail if any port depends on foo. In that case you must also  
force it. But the force flag also causes MacPorts to rebuild all  
dependencies, possibly multiple times, which you don't want. So if  
you want to force an upgrade, you should also always use the  
nonrecursive flag:

sudo port -nfu upgrade foo

> so in short what's the difference between "active" and "inactive",  
> especially
> for libs?

Inactive ports are not used. They're just there so that you can  
activate them again, should you choose to do so (after deactivating  
the version that you currently have active.) If you don't want to  
reactivate old versions, you can uninstall them to reclaim the disk  
space.

Related issue:

I installed Gimp a while ago, along with X11, and it worked.

Then an Apple upgrade came along, and Gimp quit with the message, "You  
must have X11 installed".  Since I only use gimp occasionally, I  
didn't worry about it, but it appears the Apple upgrade changed  
something with X (which still appears int he finder and "runs".

This week, I installed Wireshark which also runs under X, and after  
the installation Gimp started working.

The issue is this:  The Wireshark installation took THREE HOURS!  and  
now, a cold boot of the Mac takes over five minutes!  I've concluded  
that I must remove this stuff, and (maybe) start over.

I violated my cardinal rule - before installing software, be sure you  
know how to remove it!  In my defense, the Mac has made me lazy in  
that regard, with its "drag to the trash" uninstall procedure.  I can  
get rid of Gimp that way, and I can do a "port uninstall" to get rid  
of Wireshark, but how do I get rid of Mac Ports?  (Wireshark is almost  
useless due to the AirPort not working in promiscuous mode, and as i  
said I only use Gimp occasionally.)

neither am I. I'm definitely _not_ tinkering with the system. rather I try
to upgrade by and then relevant packages and go on with my work.

this:

The following ports are currently installed:
libiconv @1.10_1+darwin_8
libiconv @1.11_0+darwin_8
libiconv @1.12_0+darwin_8 (active)
libiconv @1.9.2_1

thanks for this clarification. I read the manpage again: this behaviour
is far from obvious from the manpage, since there "installed" and "active"
are both listed as pseudo-portnames which should imply that 'port list active'
should do what I expected. also "port installed" (or "port installed active")
works while "port active" does not. should not the manpage be modified to
make this point clear?

please, could you clarify this a bit? does this not still mean that, e.g.
apr requires/installs, say libtmp1.1, and apr0 libtmp1.2 so that both
need to be there and are used "at the same time" (meaning when apr or
apr0 are started)? whether this is necessitated by two variants of
an application (say apr) or by uncorrelated apps seems not to make a
difference. so, this is still not clear to me: I would expect that
some ports rely on a certain version of a lib, others (e.g. more
up-to-date ones) need different versions. surely not all available ports
always are in a state that they use the same library versions? and even
if so, would not otherwise a single upgrade of a single package
(inclduing some lib update) lead to necessity of upgrading virtually
_everything_ else which needs that library? (i'm not offended if
I get the "read the manual" message :-))

Hi,

I'm one of the main developers for a GPLed kid's educational game, TuxMath. 
(http://www.tux4kids.com). I develop on Linux, but my daughters' school uses 
Macs. Our Mac port is woefully out of date, and the teachers at their school 
are eager to get it updated.

The other main developer of TuxMath has started a macports project for 
TuxMath, but it's apparently running into snags in the build process. I'd 
like to try to help out, but I don't have a Mac.

Is there a way to get some kind of developer account on a Mac somewhere 
(preferably one already set up as a macports development environment), so 
that I could work on it remotely? I have the impression that Debian has 
servers for the use of their developers, I wonder if there is something 
analogous for Macs.

Best,
--Tim

Not that I'm aware of.

OpenDarwin used to run a couple of machines for MacPorts developers  
(and others) to work on, but (at least so far) that's not something  
that MacOSForge offers for us.

I'm not aware of any Mac OS X shell providers either.

There may be someone on the list who would be willing to give you  
access to some machine somewhere, but your best bet is probably to  
either get the school to loan you a machine (or access to one) or buy  
a mac mini.

Like Daniel said, MacPorts and MacOSForge do not offer shell accounts,  
but I'll ask around at Apple to see if there's anything ADC offers. I  
seem to remember something like that existing, but it was a long time  
ago.

Oh, here's what I was remembering:

Its not free (and probably not remote), so hopefully someone else on  
this list can offer up a shell account on a Mac.

On my bash shell, I would have to say no. The "sudo" applies only to  
the first command, before the first "&&". So you're running phpize as  
root, then configuring, making and installing as your normal user.

That's what I meant.

I would have thought that "sudo make install" would have done exactly  
that.

Ok. But note again that this is for Apple's PHP, not MacPorts's PHP.  
You had mentioned before that you had installed MacPorts's PHP, but  
now you won't be using it.

Not too much more. :) There is a guide:

http://guide.macports.org/

And also you can look at the thousands of existing portfiles to see  
how things are done. For example, to see how the ImageMagick port is  
written, you can type "port cat ImageMagick" or, if you have your  
EDITOR environment variable set up correctly, "port edit  
ImageMagick". Or maybe the portfile of a php extension like php5- 
xdebug would be more instructive.

That's not really the kind of thing we usually help with on this  
list. You should really be contacting the developer of that software.

Is that the only error message you get? I have a feeling there might  
be more output above or below that?

Have you tried using gfortran from the gcc42 or gcc43 port? Just to  
try something different.

All bugs deserve a bug report in our issue tracker. :) I'm just not  
sure how to report this. I've seen it before, but I forget how it  
happened to be exactly. And you don't know how it happened to you  
either. Without a reproduction recipe, it'll be hard to fix. But it  
should still be filed. I tried to search just now (summary contains  
"activat", component = base) and didn't find it.

Looks ok to me. You can force-uninstall those older inactive versions  
if you want since nothing is using them.

No... because "port list" does not do what you expected. Read the  
description of "port list" in the manpage:

    list
      If no argument is given, display a list of the the latest  
version of all
      available ports.  If portname(s) are given as arguments,  
display a list
      of the latest version of each port.

(I just noticed "the the" and fixed it in r35030.)

So "port list active" lists the latest version of each active port,  
*not* the installed version of each active port. For example, if you  
deactivate libiconv @1.12_0+darwin_8 and then activate libiconv  
@1.11_0+darwin_8, "port list active" (or "port list libiconv") will  
still show "libiconv                       @1.12           textproc/ 
libiconv" because 1.12 is the latest version of that port.

"installed" is both a command (e.g. "port installed" -- show  
information about installed ports (by default, show information about  
all installed ports, but you can specify a subset if you want, e.g.  
"port installed libiconv")) and a pseudo-portname ("port info -- 
maintainer installed" -- show the maintainer of each installed port).

"active" is only a pseudo-portname. It is not a command.

Do you have a specific suggestion about what should be changed? A  
particular passage that is confusing, or a specific sentence you'd  
like to have added?

Note that I believe the manpages have been rewritten since 1.6.0.  
That is, they used to be standalone manpages, but with the recent  
effort to write the web-based MacPorts guide, I believe the manpages  
have also been rewritten and reformatted in the same docbook style,  
though at the time MacPorts 1.6.0 was released there were some  
problems actually generating the manpages from the docbook sources so  
the old manpages were left in. I'm not sure if that situation has  
changed since then.

I'll try to clarify, with the APR example. APR is the Apache Portable  
Runtime, a library used by the Apache web server, Subversion, and  
other software that wants to run on multiple operating systems  
without having to write lots of OS-specific code. OS-specific code is  
encapsulated inside APR.

We have two ports for Apache 2: apache2, which installs Apache 2.2.x,  
and apache20, which installs Apache 2.0.x. Most people will want the  
latest version and so they will choose apache2. Some people may want  
to use pre-compiled modules designed for Apache 2.0.x which won't  
work with Apache 2.2.x, therefore they will choose apache20.

Apache 2.2.x requires APR 1.2.x and does not work with earlier  
versions. Apache 2.0.x requires APR 0.9.x and does not work with  
later versions.

Back in 2005, the apr port installed APR 0.9.x. But then in December  
2005, APR 1.2.x was released and the apr port was updated to that  
version.

You cannot ask MacPorts to install an older version of a port. You  
can only install the current version of a port.

Therefore, we need separate ports apr (provides APR 1.2.x) and apr0  
(provides APR 0.9.x) so that ports that want the latest version (like  
apache2) can use apr, and ports that want the older 0.9.x version  
(like apache20) can use that version.

Back to libiconv: there is only one libiconv port, so your only  
option is to install the latest version of libiconv. If there were a  
port that required an older version of libiconv in order to run, we  
would have to make a second libiconv port for that older version of  
the libiconv software.

In MacPorts, there is no way to specify that a port depends on a  
certain version of another port. It is only possible to specify that  
a port depends on another port.

For most library updates, the library is a drop-in replacement for  
the old library. Software that linked with and worked with the old  
library will continue to work with the new library. But consider  
gettext, the GNU internationalization library used by many many other  
ports. When gettext was updated from 0.14.x to 0.15.x, the library  
changed in a binary-incompatible way so the library version was  
increased, which caused all other ports to break until they were  
rebuilt. See the problem hotlist:

http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/wiki/ 
ProblemHotlist#a2.Aportfailedtobuildupgradeorrunwithamessagereferringtol 
ibintl.3.dylib

This may not be super, but it is the state of MacPorts at this time.

I contacted the developer, he doesn't know how to fix this.
I asked on fortran-dev apple mailing list but without any luck so far.
I haven't try yet building gfortran from macports, I am still hoping  
for an easier solution. :-/

The project currently known as MacPorts used to be known as  
DarwinPorts. Two main situations caused the name change: 1) The focus  
of the project changed to providing the best Mac OS X package  
manager, rather than trying to also provide a package manager for the  
stand-alone Darwin OS, which almost none of the port developers use  
and therefore almost none of the ports are tested on, and 2) the  
official web site was www.darwinports.org but someone not affiliated  
with the project set up a rogue web at www.d*****ports.com with  
conflicting and inaccurate information.

Please do not refer to www.d*****ports.com for any information about  
the MacPorts project. Please refer to www.macports.org only. See our  
wonderful guide at guide.macports.org. Please read Chapter 2:  
Installing MacPorts and Chapter 3: Using MacPorts. May I ask what led  
you to www.d*****ports.com in the first place? I understand that  
unfortunately it scores a rather higher PageRank in Google... I wish  
it were not so, and I would like to know how to change that.

To upgrade from DarwinPorts to MacPorts, or MacPorts to any future  
version, run "sudo port selfupdate". Sounds like you already did this  
so you should already have MacPorts 1.6.0.

You seem to have part but not all of X11 installed. You need both the  
X11 User package from the Mac OS X DVD (which accounts for X11.app in  
your Utilities folder) and the X11 SDK package from Xcode (which is  
the part that lets you build other software for X11). Install X11  
User first (you probably already have it), then install the latest  
Xcode for your OS, and make sure to tell it to install the X11 SDK as  
well.

To install any port foo, just run "sudo port install foo". That's all  
you need to do. You don't need to be in any particular directory. But  
you may want to first see if there are any variants that you would  
like to select. Run "port info foo" and "port variants foo".

Yes, you need to add /opt/local/bin and /opt/local/sbin to your PATH.  
That is, the MacPorts installer should do so for you. Versions prior  
to 1.6.0 did so for you. 1.6.0 has a bug where it does not do so for  
you and you must do it manually. This will be fixed in the next version.

If you have any other questions please let us know. Welcome to MacPorts!

I tried making a portfile for oski using the gcc42 port which I  
already had installed, and got the same error.

I filed a ticket with my in-progress portfile if anyone would like to  
jump in and help here:

Replying to my own post - I confess to being hasty.

I don't know why it took three hours to install wireshark; I had done  
so under OS X 10.4 and it only took a few minutes.  I was more  
disturbed by the very long boot time.  After a night's sleep (and  
thanks for the info, Daniel) I went back into my notes for the last  
time I had trouble with boot-up and found the procedure for a Safe  
Boot.  At that time the Apple technician explained that unlike Windows  
Safe Mode, Safe Boot in OS X actually does some repair work, which is  
why it takes so long.  Anyway, I did a Safe Boot, the Repair  
Permissions, and the three cron jobs (daily, weekly, monthly) that I  
neglect so frequently, and now my Mac is happy again!

I thought I'd pass that on in case others are having similar problems.

Two issues remain:
If I try to start Gimp by itself, it fails with a message box, "Failed  
to start X11"

However if I start Wireshark first, Gimp runs OK since wireshark has  
started X11 (and does not shut it down when you exit Wireshark).

I remember from some Linux distros I have used that there is s  
"startx" command to run X11, but that just gives me a screenful of  
error messages.

Fatal server error:
Cannot establish any listening sockets - Make sure an X server isn't  
already running
    AbortDDX
Quitting XQuartz...
giving up.
xinit:  Operation timed out (errno 60):  unable to connect to X server
xinit:  No such process (errno 3):  Server error.
xauth:  error in locking authority file /Users/walts/.Xauthority

This was after a fresh start, so unless started automatically, no X  
server was running.
For now, if I need Gimp I can work around it by running Wireshark  
first, but I'd really like to find the "right" way to do this!

Now, does anybody know how to make the Air Port work in promiscuous  
mode?

I have macports 1.6.0 install on a computer running tiger (10.4.11)  
and I want to upgrade to lepoard.
Should I uninstall the the ports, uninstall macports, install leopard,  
install macports for 10.5, and then install my ports
or this there a better less involved way?

Run command requiring X11 like this:
$ open-x11 gimp

This will take care of starting X11.

Even more simple, put the X11.app into your dock and just click it to
run it.

Yes, that's what I recommend. Make sure to save any configuration  
files you edited or other unique data of yours inside your MacPorts  
prefix before you remove it.

> or this there a better less involved way?

Not one that I'm comfortable with. I can't guarantee that ports built  
on Tiger will work correctly on Leopard, and I wouldn't want to  
troubleshoot any issues you have as a result.

Thanks for the help, your explanation made it easy to get all the proper
components installed to get macports working properly.  The scite install is
still having problems, but I'll get to that after I take care of one of your
questions.

I don't remember my exact search terms it has something like scite and mac
os X and maybe even darwin in one of the searches but after I read your
response I even tried macports scite and the d*****ports.com page entry came
up as the first one.  We have a group of folks at work who do search engine

I used the macports 1.6 dmg file to install over the top of what I had
before.  I know you said I didn't have to, but the idea of a rogue site made
me a little nervous.

All is well with x11.  once I was using the installation instructions from
the macports site, fixing the issue was relatively easy.

One of the installs put a .profile in my home directory once I sourced that
from .bash_profile everything worked fine.

If you have any other questions please let us know. Welcome to MacPorts!


The scite install is still giving me problems.  Here is the output from my
terminal session including every thing I did per the instructions to try to
resolve the issue.  I guess I'll have to open a ticket?

I tried it just now and the checksums verify just fine, so I think  
you just got a bad download. Clean it out and try again:

sudo port clean --all docbook-xsl

Is there an option in the configure script for pgpool-II to tell it  
where postgresql is located? Take a look at its "./configure --help"

If not, then I guess you'll have to munge the PATH like that. Which  
isn't awful.

Hi everybody,

coming from an Ubuntu background, I've been using fink for the last 
months but am left quite unimpressed by the quality and up-to-dateness 
of their packages (as well as availability and speed of the mirrors). Of 
course it is an effort led solely by volunteers and as such I can't 
really complain about the service they are providing. I have found 
however, that software provided by the macports project is more recent 
and generally more hassle-free to install and work with.

This of course was the long version of "thanks what you guys are doing!"..

However, I am dearly missing two programs from my KDE days which are 
digikam and amarok. (http://www.digikam.org & http://amarok.kde.org). I 
could not find those in your ports database so my question is: are they 
provided by the "kde" port and as such not installable individually or 
aren't they part of the macports project at all? If so: are there any 
plans to include them in the future?

In any case, thanks for providing this fantastic service and best regards,
Niels.

Does anyone know how I can get hold of this? Should I do it outside

Subject: tclsh malloc error and what does -R do?
Message-ID: <47DD53B7.2040907@pacbell.net>

I use -R when upgrading something with dependents, because I think it is 
going to upgrade or recompile/relink the packages that depend on what 
I'm upgrading. But, I think it just upgrades all of my outdated ports, 
is that right?

For example I used sudo port upgrade -R python24 and it upgraded most of 
my outdated ports, such as gtk2, and stopped on an error before moving 
on to the last port. So, what does -R do?

Changing the subject: When I upgrade and many ports are upgraded, the 
process often ends with this error:

tclsh(41595,0xa0081074) malloc: *** mmap(size=446464) failed (error code=12)
*** error: can't allocate region
*** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug
unable to alloc 443225 bytes
Abort trap

I don't recall if this happens also when that happens, but this time, 
just before the malloc error, I get:

Error: Variant headercache conflicts with db4
Error: Unable to open port: Error evaluating variants

The final port that was going to probably be upgraded was mutt-devel, 
which depends on db44. I don't recall if mutt was among the ports being 
upgraded whenever I got this error.

Actually, I'm not going to look at mutt now, so I've uninstalled it. 
But, do you know if the malloc error is a
general problem with upgrading many ports, or if it means my ports 
system is screwed up somehow, or if it is a problem with db44 or mutt-devel?

For questions like this, "Do we plan to provide $foo with MacPorts?", 
there is only one answer: If you provide a Portfile and maintain it, we 
can include it. May sound a bit harsh, but that's the way it is. A 
ticket asking for inclusion can stay there for a few years...

You can find documentation on how to write a Portfile in our Guide at 
http://guide.macports.org/#development.introduction

First task would be to find out if we have all the dependencies digikam 
and amarok need. Next thing would be if they both compile in general. If 
not, it would need patching which can be in the range from easy to very 
hard. But the mailing lists and IRC can be a great help on getting a 
working port.

I followed the instructions and did not notice any errors in setting up
libpcap.  Here's what I get:

<code>

I have the source set in kismet.conf:
source=darwin,en1,airport_extreme
and it looks like it's opening that correctly, but then it stumbles on wlt1
(which does not exist in kismet.conf).  I'm not sure what to do at this
point.

I'm pretty comfortable with command-line and green-screen interfaces  
so I haven't tried it so far.
I just downloaded and installed R65 (there are several versions shown  
in my google search and that seemed to be the highest number).
In any event, here is the error I got:

KisMAC is not able to load the Apple Airport driver, if you killed it  
by loading the Viha driver. Try restarting KisMAC.

The error dialog box kept on popping up over and over, so I force-quit  
Kismac and restarted it, with the same result.

The KisMac forum is definitely unfriendly, so I haven't posted any  
request for help there, but the consensus seems to be that the Air  
Port Extreme with the Atheros chipset won't work with KisMac anyway.   
I have Kismet on other devices so it's not a crisis, just that I would  
rather not lug around so much equipment :-)

Hmm, I have r239 . . . it seems to work just fine. latest version seems to

I have never had a problem with it (late 2003 iBook, Airport Extreme card,

Rainer, I appreciate this. It doesn't sound harsh at all an I did not 
actually expect anybody to jump up and down in excitement over the 
opportunity to create a newly requested port.

However I haven't followed the macports development so far and thought 
that these packages might already be in the works or there might 
actually be a port providing those programs out there. This is because I 
couldn't find a way to search for a port which provides a file 
identified only by a given name. Is this impossible due to the 
architecture of the system or is there a global index of all provided 
files? (? la "apt-file search" if anybody is familiar with this..)

Thanks for the pointers. I'll definitely look into it. I wouldn't be 
able to maintain a port in the long term but a working one might be a 
good starting point for other users and will certainly be a good way to 
learn more about the workings of the port system.

Cheers,
Niels

No, you can't search for a file at a specific location as the files 
installed by a port are not known prior to installing. But `port search' 
looks for the given search string in port names and their descriptions.

have to wait until I get to work tomorrow where I have a more robust  
test environment to really give this a workout, but it looks  
promising.  Thanks for the help!

No problem. A walk around the block can be informative as well (I think I
counted 30-something networks last time I tried it).

You could compile it by hand, but so that other Mac users won't have  
to do this, it would be best to make a port. If you don't know how  
you can learn at http://guide.macports.org . If you don't have time  
to make a port, you could file a ticket in the issue tracker  
requesting that someone make this port. See the guide for how to file  
tickets.

I guess we could use --with-pgsql, however the problem is that we  
have to hard code the version of the postgres port. Of course, since  
you can have, say, both 8.2 and 8.3 versions installed and activated  
you have explicitly choose which one pgpool should use. I was hoping  
to be able to use the port dependency mechanism but we can the  
configure option.

The usual solution would be to offer variants. So offer a  
postgresql83 variant, a postgresql82 variant, etc. Each one adds the  
right configure argument and depends on the right version of postgres.

In fact I took a look and it wasn't too hard to make a port for it,  
so I did. It should appear within 12 hours, at which point you should  
be able to

$ sudo port install detex

Thanks.
The version of libpcap I got from CVS had a VERSION file containing
0.9-PRE-CVS.  The bulk of the "important" files (to my mind anyway) are
dated March 13 and 14 2008.  In any event it works with KisMac but not with
the command-line kismet.

I'm confused about that - in the Linux installations of kismet that I'm
familiar with, there is a server piece and several clients ranging from a
text-only display to varying degrees of GUI.  It looks like KisMac is a
totally different package. 

I'm also confused about this forum.  Your message came to me only from the
Nabble forum, whereas the rest of the thread (and my replies) has been on
the Mac Ports Users mailing list (macports-users@lists.macosforge.org). 
what's the connection, and where should I be posting?

Walt

So, this proposal was out now for about a week and nobody replied. If 
you don't like it, please tell me at least why you think it is not a 
good idea.

Normally if I get no reply on a proposal, I would just take this as "no 
objections". But this time it is important that you as developers and 
maintainers are going to accept and use it. Therefore it would have been 
nice to get some replies what you think about this topic.

Now it seems like nobody cares about it. Do you think we don't need this 
at all? Do you think nobody would use it? Or do you have another better 
solution?

maybe a hint concerning the 'double nature' of `installed' (command
_and_ pseudo-portname) at both places where `installed' is defined
in the manpage would help. a few examples like yours (port list active
vs. port installed active, e.g.) might be good, too. but of course you
are right. it _is_ described correctly in the manpage, one only has to read
it completetly...

As a maintainer who is sometimes "away", I like the idea in principle, 
but I think there may be a  simpler problem that will affect whether 
this is necesary. The volume on the MP lists has gone up astronomically 
of late, meaning that I have to shunt my MP email into a folder and read 
it itermittently. If there was some way to indicate that something 
required action by me, I would be much more responsive. I can't think of 
anything particularly good, but perhaps a standard prefix of "action: 
username" that I can filter for...

As for the proposal, it seems fine, since people can easily opt out. I 
tend to think that people won't use it, but I see no harm in it.

I would, however, like to be a more responsive maintainer, so it would 
be nice if there were some standard way to see which of the MP e-mails I 
really need to read, and which can wait for a week or so.

We already have the 72 hour timeout, the option of putting  
'openmaintainer' on our ports or having co-maintainers who can also  
commit.

In addition, ports that are seriously broken (ie, don't build,  
security vulnerability, distfile no longer available) can be fixed to  
work (without major changes) without waiting for the timeout already.

I don't see the additional speed benefit as worth the extra book  
keeping.

That said, I'm not going to object if others want to use it (I do know  
that I don't really plan on advertising to the world any time I may be  
going away on vacation).

Exactly, we have to wait 72h even if the person in question will not 
respond anyway.

These points are not exactly clarified in the guide.
   # A critical port is broken that affects many users.
Doesn't sound like 'missing distfile' or 'doesn't build' to me. I can't 
find another section regarding committing without maintainers' 
acknowledgment.

> I don't see the additional speed benefit as worth the extra book

The extra book keeping is done my each individual maintainer. So not 
much work for a maintainers themself.

Hm, why not? You are not going to be around for any work on MacPorts, so 
tell the project about it. If we know you are just away for a few days, 
someone could also hold on committing not-so-important tickets until the 
known date at which you are back.

I don't recall where it was documented, but it had been discussed on  
the mailing lists (perhaps quite a while ago).

It may have even been in the old darwinports committer information.

A committer may make a minimal change to a port that is broken in  
order to fix it without waiting for the 72hr timeout (it's good to  
still ping the maintainer, though). If it's not documented anywhere  
anymore, we should probably get the documentation updated.

it's still extra work ;-)

... because I feel that the 72 hour timeout is sufficient, and I don't  
like the idea of a public place where people could get a good  
indication that my house is probably empty.

I don't understand what's happening here.  Yesterday I got a message  
that there was a reply to a message I had posted on this mailing list,  
from "njstaticuser" on the Nabble forum.  The message did NOT appear  
in my mailbox from MacPorts Users.  I logged in to the Nabble forum  
and submitted a reply, which is shown below.  Then a few hours later I  
got a message that the moderator was refusing to post my message.

What is the deal here?  I can submit freely to this list, and my  
messages get cross-posted to Nabble, but I can't answer them there?

Walt

=======================

Message submitted to Nabble follows:



njstaticuser wrote:
libpcap is in charge of creating the wlt1 device. Since leopard  
changed the way it handled its hardware since Tiger, you MUST have the  
latest version of libpcap, which I believe is dated December of 2007.
[SNIP]

Thanks.
The version of libpcap I got from CVS had a VERSION file containing  
0.9-PRE-CVS.  The bulk of the "important" files (to my mind anyway)  
are dated March 13 and 14 2008.  In any event it works with KisMac but  
not with the command-line kismet.

I'm confused about that - in the Linux installations of kismet that  
I'm familiar with, there is a server piece and several clients ranging  
from a text-only display to varying degrees of GUI.  It looks like  
KisMac is a totally different package.

I'm also confused about this forum.  Your message came to me only from  
the Nabble forum, whereas the rest of the thread (and my replies) has  
been on the Mac Ports Users mailing list (macports-users@lists.macosforge.org 
).  what's the connection, and where should I be posting?

Is that true? If I, at a minimum, look at all e-mails cc'd to me, will 
that be sufficent to make sure I'm not holding anyone up? If not, maybe 
that would be a good policy. I'm pretty sure there are tasks that don't 
require tickets, so, I don't think that's enough, but maybe that would 
work...

Maybe, if someone is about to clarify the 72 hour rule, they could add 
"the 72 hours begins when the maintainer has been directly e-mailed 
regarding the change".

Then I'll update my filters.

As for the vacation page, I also would not advertise being on 
"vacation", but I don't mind if anyone else does.

You can also query the Trac database to find cc'ed tickets:
http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/query?cc=$EMAIL

If you are set on CC for a ticket, Trac also sends the mail with your 
email address in the CC header. If you are the reporter or assignee, 
your email address is in the To header.

Right, this should be added.

Maybe you should ask Nabble?

I don't know who set up the bridge from the mailing list to that web  
forum, but as far as I know, it's not something that the project  
specifically set up or supports.

o 
o You can also query the Trac database to find cc'ed tickets:
o http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/query?cc=$EMAIL
o
o If you are set on CC for a ticket, Trac also sends the mail with your email
o address in the CC header. If you are the reporter or assignee, your email
o address is in the To header.

This requires polling. Is there a "push" way to ensure that you know 
about any tickets for your ports? Can we guarantee that the 
maintainer(s) are listed as CC's (I can't think of a situation where 
they shouldn't be).

As you noticed in the Kismet notes this is a known issue...  Bumping  
Kismet to a macports hosted svn snapshot is on my todo list (Mike says  
an official one or release isn't in the works until a number of other  
bugs get sorted out), but I've been hoping pcap would do an update  
also.  Since pcap is a dependency for a number of things I'm a little  
less excited about making that track cvs...

Thanks,
Eric

Hi,

 I need help to make GNS3 Port, it is used with Dynamips and Dynagen (both
already ported).

 I tried to port but my knowledge is not enough.

 Could any help me ????


 Thanks in advance.

No, it was only working in active mode.  I passive mode it runs for a  
few seconds and dies.  It also leaves the AirPort disconnected.   
Here's teh dump file it created - I don't know if that will help anyone.

Model: MacBookPro1,1, BootROM MBP11.0055.B08, 2 processors, Intel Core  
Duo, 2.16 GHz, 2 GB

1.3.2
Bluetooth: Version 2.1.0f14, 2 service, 1 devices, 1 incoming serial  
ports
Network Service: Parallels NAT, Ethernet, en3
Network Service: Parallels Host-Guest, Ethernet, en4
Serial ATA Device: ST9100824AS, 93.16 GB
Parallel ATA Device: MATSHITADVD-R   UJ-857
USB Device: Built-in iSight, Micron, high_speed, 500 mA
USB Device: iPod, Apple, high_speed, 500 mA

full_speed, 500 mA
USB Device: Bluetooth USB Host Controller, Apple, Inc., full_speed,  
500 mA
USB Device: IR Receiver, Apple Computer, Inc., full_speed, 500 mA

On the whole I'm pretty discouraged with KisMac and would rather use  
plain vanilla kismet, except that does not work either.  From what I  
read it's all Apple's fault and I don't know if there will ever be a  
workaround.

Fortunately I have a Zaurus and a Nokia 800, both of which run kismet  
just fine.  I can take the files created by either to the Mac for  
analysis with Wireshark.  (Now if CACE Technologies would come out  
with a Mac version of AirPcap and their channel-hopping modification  
of wireshark....)

I have .21a rev.242 running on a macbook air in passive and active  
mode. I had to set my bpf device in advanced preferences to match my  
airport card.

I'm using Apple Airport Extreme card, passive mode driver.

Did you ever figure this out? It's happening to me, too, so several
packages, often in the build step. It looks like the compiler name is
missing i.e. the command line should start with "gcc" or "cc".

It seems to be related to the python install. "which python" was
finding /usr/bin/python (the MacOSX python). I have now done this:

  cd /opt/local/bin
  ln -s python2.5 python

and with /opt/local/bin at the start of my $PATH things are now working.

Shouldn't the python packages "know" their preferred python?
(/opt/local/bin/python2.4 or /opt/local/bin/python2.5)?
Or shouldn't /opt/local/bin/python already be set up?

Cheers,

You don't need to manually link python2.5 to python. Use the  
python_select port instead.

Did your -NDEBUG problem go away?

Is python_select a macports thing or more general? The man page doesn't
document the options (besides mentioning that they exist). How to fix
that?

python_select was created by MacPorts contributor Markus Weissman for  
the MacPorts project. Its source is in the MacPorts repository:

http://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/users/mww/select/

You can send suggestions to Markus, or file tickets for them in our  
issue tracker, or look at the source and submit patches...

Subject: Leopard, curl, proxy problem
Message-ID: <dae8c3bb0803181827r5757700fi68cf087c083a6960@mail.gmail.com>

Hi all,

I am unable to sort out what must be a silly proxy / curl / macports
config issue on Leopard.  I've scraped the web for solutions, but
found none.

I am installing MacPorts 1.6 (from DMG or svn source, no difference)
on a Leopard Intel box.  We are behind an http proxy, which I have
configured precisely on the Leopard box as on my Tiger (also Intel)
box.

However, "sudo port install xv" hangs when it tries to fetch:

jpegsrc.v6b.tar.gz from http://www.ijg.org/files

It just sits there, then eventually tries another source for the file,
then another.  Clearly (I think) a proxy problem.

Peculiar thing is, that curl from the command line works just fine ...

curl http://www.ijg.org/files/jpegsrc.v6b.tar.gz

What gives?  I've played with the macports.conf file which allows you
to indicate shell vars that shouldn't be deleted etc., but to no
avail.

I hope someone can help, or at least agree this is an issue on Leopard.

thanks,
 - David Barnes.

I just upgraded to sqlite3 3.5.7 on Tiger (10.4.11) and the relevant  
line of output should be:

sort -n -b -k 3 opcodes.h | /opt/local/bin/gawk -f ./mkopcodec.awk  
 >opcodes.c

So on your system it can't find awk/gawk. This is a common problem on  
Leopard to which I don't know the solution. Some say simply retrying  
the install will work. (Just do "sudo port install sqlite3" again.)  
That's a workaround of course, not a permanent solution...

Hi.

According to this page, memcached needs to be patched on Tiger and  
Panther in order to perform.

Do you know if the patch linked on the aforementioned page is included  
in its port?

Also, do you know if the kqueue issue (same page) has been fixed in  
Leopard?

Thanks!

Message-ID: <F43F26DE-4AF9-4582-96F3-B6B80D65D4A4@gracion.com>

We run an HTTPS server using the entropy.ch php5 5.2.4 binary.  
Clearly its time to upgrade to php 5.2.5. Plus we're going to need  
WebDAV. We'd rather not switch the server from Tiger to Leopard any  
sooner than necessary (as entropy's php 5.2.5 binary will apparently  
require).

What are most people doing with OS X-based production web servers?  
Running the entropy.ch php 5.2.4 binary from here until 5.2.5 is  
released, then upgrading to Leopard? (Ignoring the beta for the moment.)

I've installed, worked with, and like MacPorts, but to use its php  
would require us to replace OS X's Apache and SSL module, which we  
don't want to do. But is that what people are doing?

Or, are many production servers running OS X Server instead of Client  
and letting Apple handle the upgrades?

Any recommendations or field reports would be appreciated.

This is in reference to http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/14308 
  and hopefully helps the macport get fixed.

Though the macport fails to build, the source can be built just fine:

1 - Download ntop 3.3 source
2 - Run autogen.sh
3 - ./configure --with-gdbm-lib=/opt/local/lib --with-gdbm-include=/ 
opt/local/include
4 - make; sudo make install
5 - run it and then log in to http://localhost:3000

Everything works just fine.

Using the +apache variant of the php5 port will use Apple's Apache  
1.3 server. This option will be renamed to +apache_apple in the future.

If you are using Apple's Apache 2 server, for example with Mac OS X  
Server or with Leopard, there is no option to make the php5 port work  
with that at this time. There will be an option +apache2_apple in the  
future for this.

Lots of software packages look in /usr/local automatically. It's not  
a problem that this directory is absent.

> ld: warning -L: directory name (/opt/local/lib/lib) does not exist

I wonder why it says that. Could you show all previous lines that  
mention /opt/local/lib/lib in the output?

Since you appear to be using Mac OS X 10.4, set the  
MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET environment variable to 10.4 for the  
duration of your attempt to build this software. MacPorts sets this  
variable for you automatically but if you're compiling manually, set  
the variable manually, e.g. if your shell is bash:

export MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.4

Probably due to the above.

Subject: how to delete deactivated ports
Message-ID: <c4dbbf0d0803192204l32ddbe00ifaef7eb504fb404@mail.gmail.com>

Hello,

(a novice question)

I installed a package (py25-matplotlib), had some trouble with using it,
then did a port selfupdate,

then upgraded the package.   In the process, a number of packages were
deactivated.

For example, it looks like I now have two copies of python25, numpy,
3 copies of libpng, etc.

How can I uninstall these now (to clean up and save disk space)?

For example
    port uninstall python25 @2.5.1_2+darwin_8
says that I cannot uninstall this (deactivated) python because other things
depend on it.

Most of those things are things that I'm actively using (py-readline for
example).

should I uninstall and reinstall all of these?   If so, it seems like
upgrading is a bad
strategy, one can save work by uninstalling and reinstalling?

port -f uninstall inactive should do it.

Someone just proposed a fix for the port here: 
http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/13610

Can someone verify or comment on this fix?  Ihaven't had time to look at
it.

That appears to fix an entirely unrelated build issue with ntop than  
the one reported in this thread.

Welcome to MacPorts!

The message you're referring to is misleading. It says that this  
specific version of the port cannot be uninstalled because other  
ports depend on it. In fact, MacPorts has no concept of depending on  
a specific version of a port, so the message should just say that  
other ports depend on that port. And since you already have a newer  
version of that port installed, there is no problem with uninstalling  
the older version. MacPorts is just being overly cautious. You can  
force the uninstallation as Paul said:

sudo port -f uninstall python25

If you already know when you upgrade that you want to uninstall the  
older version, you can use the -u flag:

sudo port -u upgrade python25

This will fail if any other ports depend on python25, with the same  
error message as discussed above. So you need to force it. But  
forcing the upgrade of e.g. python25 also forces the upgrade of all  
ports that python25 depends on, possibly multiple times. This is not  
what you want. So if you're going to force an upgrade, always use the  
-n flag with the -f flag to indicate that you do not want the  
recursive port upgrade feature:

sudo port -nfu upgrade python25

Yes, this whole situation is a little less than ideal, but it's what  
we have right now.

Hi
I just install MacPorts-1.6.0-10.5-Leopard on Leopard version 10.5.2.
I wanted to use perltk, I for that I do (perhaps that I'm wrong):

port install perl5.10
port install p5-tk

for perl5.10, everything is fine, but when I try to install p5-tk, I  
get an error (see bellow)

thanks for your help

My only thought would be to wrap the lines suitably:

    #!/opt/local/bin/bash

    cd "~/base/" \
    && /opt/local/bin/svn update \
    && PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin ./configure --enable-readline \
    && /usr/bin/make \
    && /opt/local/bin/sudo /usr/bin/make install \
    && /usr/bin/make clean \
    && /opt/local/bin/port -v selfupdate \
    && /opt/local/bin/port -fvdRnu upgrade outdated \
    && /opt/local/bin/port -fvdR clean --all installed \
    && /opt/local/bin/port -fvdR uninstall inactive \
    && /opt/local/bin/port -fvdR clean --all uninstalled

Now that I can read what you wrote ;-) I have a couple other questions:

    * Why not put /opt/local/bin in your PATH?
    * Why prefer /opt/local/bin/sudo over the version Apple installed?
    * Referencing /usr/bin/make suggests you think there's another version
      earlier in your PATH.  Kinda curious about that.

Hello all,

I found out (the hard way) that the latest Apple Security Update 2008-002
for Tiger replaces the apachectl file in /usr/sbin. If, like me, you had
copied the apachectl file from /opt/local/apache2/bin to /usr/sbin (this
enables you to turn Apache on and off using the System
Prefs/Sharing/Personal Web Sharing), you will find that the next time you
restart Apache, things go haywire, like none of your PHP works any more.
It's because your system has reverted to the Apache 1.3 that comes with
Tiger.

John,

I know about assuming, but I'll still assume that you fixed this somehow 
(like re-copied apachectl to /usr/sbin).

Are there other steps to making Personal Web Sharing run Apache2?  If 
so, could you please detail them for those of us who just can't remember 
anything?

If you are comfortable with the command line, all you need to do is to link
to the installation of apache that you want to control from the preferance
panes.


   1. $cd /usr/sbin
   2. $mv apachectl apachectl1-3
   3. $ln -s /opt/local/apache2/bin/apachectl apachectl


when you list the directory it should give you something like this:
...
apachectl -> /opt/local/apache2/bin/apachectl
...

and you should now be able to control macports apache2 from you preference
pane.

I just committed the patch as revision 1 to the port.  The patch worked
fine for me.  In short order the new port should be updated for you after
doing a selfupdate.

Could you detail how to do this?  I'm not well schooled in the install/ 
build process and have been holding off on getting ntop compiled  
because of all the problems mentioned.

Thanks,

Alex,

Two steps:

$ sudo port selfupdate
$ sudo port install ntop

Yay.

ntop is compiled and happy.

Thanks all.

Message-ID: <5cbbe4ae0803201249h3f7373c3le894434fb4455f02@mail.gmail.com>

Is there a way to install ruby 1.9 through MacPorts? I think it
becomes quite reasonable
to have a closer look at this for many people.

I would add a simple portfile myself, but I'm a bit scared of the
amount fo patches
that come with the 1.8 ruby -- what is the nature of them and are they essential
for regular usage?

This problem was fixed in r34462 on 2008-02-25. That means your port  
definitions are out of date. "sudo port selfupdate" to get the latest  
MacPorts and port definitions. Then "sudo port uninstall git-core  
@1.5.3.7_0+doc" and "sudo port install git-core", which will this  
time get you the current version which is 1.5.4.4.

I wish you wouldn't indiscriminately use the -f (force) flag all the  
time. If it were intended to be used all the time it would have been  
made the default. In particular it should only be needed for "port -f  
uninstall inactive". It should not be needed for clean, and the only  
times it would be needed for upgrade are in unusual situations, which  
you would probably want to handle by hand individually rather than  
automate.

That is correct. MacPorts base was not outdated, therefore MacPorts  
base was not updated. However, your port definitions were outdated,  
and they were updated, even if it didn't say so. Now try installing  
git-core again.

Sure, you could try port clean. "sudo port clean --work git-core".  
Then try installing again. Manually cleaning shouldn't be necessary  
though if the portfile was updated, since MacPorts will see that the  
portfile differs and will clean automatically.

Does it try to install 1.5.4.4 now or still 1.5.3.7?

If it still doesn't work, what is the error message?

Does ntop run cleanly for you?

I did:

$ sudo port selfupdate
$ sudo port install ntop

Ntop seemed to install cleanly, but when I try to run it, it can't  
find it's plugins:

Thu Mar 20 16:19:16 2008  Loading Plugins

local/lib/ntop/plugins/sflowPlugin.so' entry function [symbol not found]

After the errors ntop keeps running but I suspect with reduced  
functionality. But when I try to connect to its webserver, ntop  
crashes with the following errors:

dyld: lazy symbol binding failed: Symbol not found: ___sprintf_chk 
$LDBLStub
   Referenced from: /opt/local/lib/libntopreport-3.3.dylib
   Expected in: dynamic lookup

dyld: Symbol not found: ___sprintf_chk$LDBLStub
   Referenced from: /opt/local/lib/libntopreport-3.3.dylib
   Expected in: dynamic lookup

Trace/BPT trap

Anyone else trying to us ntop have this problem?  I'm running OSX  
10.5.2 on a PowerPC G5.

Thanks - David

Let it be said, however, that not everyone agrees. When I've read all  
the other messages already, I don't like having to scroll.

So only quote the relevant part you are referring to - as I do here.

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.

Please disregard my last email. I jumped the gun and didn't start ntop  
correctly. Here it is starting and working. The web interface works  
fine too. David, yes, I am also getting the WARNINGS about the plugins.

I non-concur on this: I think -f should be the default on upgrades (if you
don't mean it, don't ask for it). It's confusing, in case the regular flow
of questions on this hasn't made clear. Ideally, you wouldn't need any
flags: port upgrade foo would Just Work. I would put clean in a central
config file as well: I suspect this isn't done on a port by port basis.
Are there cases where you don't need -f on upgrades? I generally find I have
to use it all the time if I am upgrading anything.

will do

any way, it tries to install git-core 1.5.4.4_0+doc the delay is because i
am in the middle of installing bazaar and thought it would be done by the
time u replied (little did i know it had to upgrade python to 2.5.2 )

Hello everyone,

I just wanted to know how much time it takes to GCC43 to compile. I've been
doing this for more than an hour, and it seems that it's never going to end.
I'm on a MacBook Pro, Santa Rosa generation. Thank you all,

GCC can take a _long_ time to compile.

Um, yeah. The first I ever tried to build a new gcc, it took me several
*days*. But that was a long time ago and a hardware platform far far away
(you kids ever use a SPARCstation 20?).

Yes, it will take a long time. An hour is nothing to a gcc compile job. It
will finish in hours, not days, but it's a big job.

Subject: gtk2 compilation failed
Message-ID: <973A8DE6-ADC1-45EF-98F5-248A9B2B04C5@gmail.com>

Hello everyone,

I was trying to build pidgin, and when compiling gtk2 I had the  
following error:

i686-apple-darwin9-gcc-4.0.1: /usr/X11/lib/libXrandr.2.0.0.dylib: No  
such file or directory
make[4]: *** [libgdk-x11-2.0.la] Error 1

I'm new to Mac OS so I was wondering why this library is not there. Is  
there an easy way to fix this?

Thank you all,

aa

Message-ID: <fee4d890803202102o5994b253yc76d4e559c847bf0@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,
I see that java and fortran are in the default configuration, does that mean
that gcc 4.3 has been released?  It seems that the error that I had before
and others have found that the 64 bit version creates bad binaries that
cause problems for the 64 bit ld.  Below is the error:
name  /opt/local/lib/gcc43/x86_64/libgcj.9.dylib -compatibility_version 10
-current_version 10.0
/usr/bin/ld: fatal error in /usr/bin/ld64
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[5]: *** [libgcj.la] Error 1
make[4]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[3]: *** [multi-do] Error 1
make[2]: *** [all-multi] Error 2
make[1]: *** [all-target-libjava] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2

I found another link that discusses a similar issue with 4.2
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-help/2007-06/msg00025.html .

I am building on Tiger (10.4.11) with Xcode 2.5

Yes, but I think that came around *after* the PDP 11s, the Varian 620i 
and the EAI 8400 (full flight simulation of 747 w/Space Shuttle 
piggyback in 48K of *core*)!  [Not to mention the Burroughs B-5500 from 
college.  And I don't even remember the numbers of the patch-cord 
computers.]

Paul, a) you appear to be on 10.4 and the OP is on 10.5 (note  
"darwin9" in the compiler name); b) you don't have libXrandr. 
2.0.0.dylib either (though you have libXrandr.2.0.dylib and libXrandr. 
2.dylib).

On a PowerBook G4 1.5 GHz, it took around six hours to compile gcc  
4.something. On a MacBook Pro 2.2 GHz (Santa Rosa), it took between  
one and two hours.

We need an official document on mailing list etiquette on the  
MacPorts site. We currently only provide a link to an external  
document [1] but that document does not mention quoting. We need  
something like what the Subversion project has [2]. I am still  
strongly in favor of bottom-posting, or rather, interleaved posting.

[1] http://www.macports.org/contact.php#Lists says "Members are  
expected to abide by the very simple Netiquette guidelines" and links  
to http://www.dtcc.edu/cs/rfc1855.html

Subject: Difficulties installing Gnumeric
Message-ID: <8EAB1137-1057-4429-B3B5-4DB7F262B57D@lawyer.com>

Hi,

I'm currently experiencing difficulties installing Gnumeric. I  
installed XCode and macports, then ran "sudo port install gnumeric"  
from the terminal.

I got the attached error message when the installer got up to python.  
I am using Mac Mini 1.25GHz PPC running OSX 10.4.11.

I may have brought this down on myself with my install of XCode. Due  
to low bandwidth, I didn't download the newer version of XCode, but  
rather the bundled version (2.0) with my Tiger install disk.

In addition, due to low disk space, I only installed what (I thought)  
was the minimum I needed from XCode. This was:
* Developer Tools Software
* gcc 4.0
* Mac OS X SDK
* BSD SDK
* X11 SDK
I installed only these after viewing numerous different sites and  
cobbling together what I thought was necessary.

Does anyone have any hints?

Thanks in advance,
Pete.

Oh, and I should also mention a couple of other things.

Firstly, my installation of macports from the dmg didn't really work.  
I found that there was no ~/.profile file created. I attempted  
running the installer twice, but had to create this manually instead.

Secondly, despite my threadbare XCode installation, I do find that  
some functionality of macports is definitely operational. For  
example, "sudo port selfupdate", "port search gnumeric", "port info  
gnumeric" all work. Also, "sudo port install gnumeric" did work for  
the first half an hour or so of installation.

Cheers,
Pete.

sudo ln -s libXrandr.2.dylib /usr/X11/lib/libXrandr.2.0.0.dylib

If you buy a new Mac, with Mac OS X 10.5.2 pre-installed, it only
has the newer version of X11 which only has the last and latest link.
So you have "libXrandr.2.0.1.dylib", but not "libXrandr.2.0.0.dylib".
Ironically, both are supposed to link to the same library anyway...

/usr/X11/lib/libXrandr.2.0.0.dylib -> libXrandr.2.dylib
/usr/X11/lib/libXrandr.2.1.0.dylib -> libXrandr.2.dylib
/usr/X11/lib/libXrandr.2.dylib
/usr/X11/lib/libXrandr.dylib -> libXrandr.2.dylib

Yes, unfortunately there is a bug in the 1.6.0 installer packages  
that prevents this from working properly. You must make the file  
manually. This problem has already been fixed in trunk but no new  
installer packages have yet been produced. Sorry about that.

Xcode 2.0 is not acceptable. Please update to Xcode 2.4.1 or 2.5.

A few ports will fail to compile if you do not install the QuickTime  
SDK and I believe one other SDK. I don't recall either what those few  
ports were, so you may not run into them.

Thanks Ryan,

I'll get my brother to download Xcode 2.5 and mail a DVD to me. It's  
a pity Apple don't release it as separate files without that  
documentation!

Did you know what the other SDK was that I would need for those  
ports? If I chose not to install Quicktime SDK and the other port, I  
assume that I would be informed by the relevant ports when the SDKs  
were lacking?

Thanks again,
Pete.

In fact, the missing QuickTime SDK is probably causing your error  
with python25:

http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/wiki/FAQ#Pythonfailstobuild

Maybe that was the only SDK.

Ah... well. I decided to install all of the SDKs, seeing as they  
didn't really take up that much space at all. I attempted to "sudo  
port install gnumeric" again. I didn't get the same error, but  
something different now. I assume this probably has something to do  
with using XCode 2.0...? I guess I'll just have to try again later  
with the newer XCode, unless you can see something that is obviously  
wrong here?

Thanks again,
Pete.

I was able to get gcc43 to build by adding --disable-multilib to the
Portfile configuration step.

Subject: GCC compilation time

1 hour, 40 minutes. GCC is huge!
Now that I compiled a newer release of GCC, I can configure a package
using
./configure CXX=/opt/local/bin/g++

Now, what it's bothering me, is that when you include a file in the code
like
#include <iostream>

it will refer to the old gcc library, not to the new one right? Even if
I specify the location of the header files with -I/opt/loca/include/gcc,
why is the compilation choose my specified files instead of the
usual /usr/include files?

Please help,

I also tried to compile boost and it failed. Then I used the clean
command, compiled again and everything went fine the second time. It
seems that the Makefile is corrupted the first time.

Update on Macports boost-1_34_1 install failure.
Tried a second time without doing anything and there were no errors.
Not sure what that means for the developers of the port, but for users it
means:
"if at first port doesn't succedd, try again"

I still think we should report such occurrences as a bug that same way most
comiler warnings should be heeded: it indicates something is a miss that
might causes trouble later.

Aha! Thanks Ryan - we've decided to use just that. I've got it  
working on my test server (did have to rebuild curl with ssl support  
to do outbound https in a php script).

Now I know to look in the portfile to learn more about variants  
(Porticus even has a menu command for that).

Our second choice was to upgrade our server to Mac OS X 10.5.x  
Client, now that Apple's security update upgraded their php to 5.2.5.  
But for now, that won't be necessary, and MacPorts has been able to  
release php updates earlier than Apple or even the greatly esteemed  
Marc Liyanage at entropy.ch (who still provides a terrific service to  
the Mac community, for free).

It looks like it attempts to upgrade all outdated ports, regardless of

Subject: GCC questions
Message-ID: <4FAE5B11-E2D3-49ED-BF15-A88EB974DF37@gmail.com>

Hello everyone,

I have several questions about using a different version of GCC than  
that provided by default:

$ gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
Target: i686-apple-darwin9
Configured with: /var/tmp/gcc/gcc-5465~16/src/configure --disable- 
checking -enable-werror --prefix=/usr --mandir=/share/man --enable- 
languages=c,objc,c++,obj-c++ --program-transform-name=/^[cg][^.-]*$/s/ 
$/-4.0/ --with-gxx-include-dir=/include/c++/4.0.0 --with-slibdir=/usr/ 
lib --build=i686-apple-darwin9 --with-arch=apple --with-tune=generic -- 
host=i686-apple-darwin9 --target=i686-apple-darwin9
Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5465)

I built GCC43 and I have it under /opt/local/bin. I write code in C++  
and I'm new to mac. I come from Ubuntu Linux, and it installs the  
latest GNU compiler by default. Now the questions are:

1. I use autotools for a project, so I can specify in the configure  
script that the compiler be different from the default found in /usr/ 
bin using compiler flags: $./configure CXX=/opt/include/bin/g++- 
mp-4.3. Is there a better way to do this? I wonder what's usually  
done. I see that g++ in /usr/bin is just a link to /usr/bin/g++-4.0.  
If I change that link to point to the 4.3 version, I would probably  
mess around with the system and I don't want to do that. Can anyone  
give me suggestions on what to do here?

2. Every time you #include a C++ header, I guess it looks under the / 
usr/include directory first. Even if I specify that I want the  
directory as a compilation flag as -I/opt/local/include/gcc43/c++/, I  
don't think that the file under that directory will be picked instead  
of the one installed in the system by default (/usr/include/c++/ 
4.0.0). I'm worried that I am using a newer gcc compiler with older  
header files.

3. When I type echo $PATH I get

/sw/bin:/sw/sbin:/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/ 
sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/texbin:/usr/X11/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin

so I guess whatever installed using macports will have priority over  
anything else. Is there a way to accomplish the same with include paths?

Thank you all,

aa

Setting CC/CXX as configure arguments is the way to go with configure
generated by autoconf-2.5.x (for autoconf-2.13 generated configure
scripts you should set them and export them in the environment). You do
not need to set to the full path, just, e.g. CC=gcc-mp-4.3
CXX=gcc-mp-4.3 etc. If you usually want to do that you can have a
config.site that sets them as the default if not already set. See the
autoconf manual for an example of how to do this.
<http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf.html#Site-Defaults>

Header files are searched for in all the paths specified with -I before
looking in the system paths. Something like ` g++-mp-4.3 -v -x c++ -E
/dev/null' will show you the system search paths for the macports 4.3
compiler. You can add additional paths with the environment variable
CPATH - see man gcc. That said, however, the macports g++ will have set
its include search path to search for its own headers before the
systems, it is nothing to worry about.

Well, looks like whatever is installed by fink will have priority, then
macports, then system etc.

You really should not need to worry about setting system include paths,
the compiler will have a sane search path.

You could set CXX in /etc/cshrc or euivalent.

Do you still have fink around in /sw?  That's bound to be messy, I've  
heard...

Well, then you should use ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist

If you create one, there is one. See the g++ documentation for details.

I think it would be nice if there was more than a token describing port 
variants. For example, when I see the "server" variant of mysql5, I 
don't know if that means some sort of bare-bones version, or if it means 
that it's configured to start automatically. I gather it's the later, 
but it would be nice to have it stated explicitly what it does.

Usually, look at 'port variants $portname'. In case of mysql5, there is 
no variant description for +server, so you would have to look at the 
Portfile itself (in various ways, 'port (cat|file|edit) $portname') to 
find out more.

Message-ID: <1B317579-3C6E-4F90-B101-1CEDFE1D9DCF@let.de>

hello list,

i would like to run a little "analysis tool " whitch is writen in perl  
on my leopard ppc mac.
After upgrading my perl librarys *)  on OSX PPC with macports
I need to change the systemwide variable for using perl5.8.8 to

/opt/local/bin/perl5.8.8

instead of using

/usr/bin/perl5.8.8

could someone provide me a  comand line  for dummys to change it ;) ?

thanks a lot

marc

I get the feeling that MacPorts is becoming less friendly as it goes along.
Do any of these questions get re-factored into RFEs? Yes, I know it's a
volunteer project, but I have to think  that some of the questions are
pointing out some things that could be improved.

You're welcome to file an enhancement request in the issue tracker.  
But this particular request would be rather involved. It would  
require the authors of all ports to make their variant descriptions  
more explicit. We only added variant descriptions of any kind fairly  
recently, and many ports still don't have any variant descriptions.  
Also, half of our ports are unmaintained. So there are a number of  
problems getting this request implemented.

We also don't have enough people making things happen in the project.  
There are many good suggestions for both port and base improvements  
in the issue tracker that aren't getting handled because nobody takes  
it upon themselves to handle it. The existing set of committers can  
only do so much.

And now you set up your PATH to include /opt/local/bin as advised in  
the MacPorts guide:

And that's what changing your PATH will do. The instructions that Ryan sent
you to aren't optional. MacPorts is not guaranteed to work without that
(indeed, without the right PATH, nothing will work properly).

If you're going to ask for help, take it when it's offered.

Well setting up the PATH is optional, I'd say. But without it, you'll  
have to type the complete path to all MacPorts binaries that you want  
to use.

MacPorts itself should still function, and all ports should still  
build, because MacPorts internally sets the PATH to include ${prefix}/ 
bin and ${prefix}/sbin (right?) for the duration of the build.

Subject: If you have problems installing transcode with ImageMagick
In-Reply-To: <47D08B76.6030508@cogweb.net>
References: <20D403F8-E848-4851-86BC-A311A086BF8F@planetnutek.com>

Message-ID: <47E58EB8.6020206@cogweb.net>

The recent ImageMagick upgrade includes renaming the dynamic library, 
with the result transcode doesn't find it 
(http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=213712).

Until upstream fixes this, the workaround is to create a symbolic link 
(an alias):

    cd /opt/local/lib
    ln -s libMagickCore.1.dylib libMagick.dylib

Transcode will successfully compile once this is done.

Until the portfile is updated, you may need to substitute the one below.

Cheers,
Dave

Subject: trying to get darcs working/where should I try out a new portfile?
Message-ID: <p0624080cc40b4a080708@[63.138.152.125]>

Ticket 14576 describes a problem installing darcs.

   http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/14576

The original ticket described the problem happening on MacOS 10.4.11. 
I've also confirmed the same problem on MacOS 10.5.2 in comment #5.

The error happens at this stage:

   --->  Configuring darcs

and reports:

   configure: error: Couldnt figure out how to call GHC.Handle.openFd!

There is a comment pointing to ticket 14634:

   http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/14634

where waterson at maubi.net has a proposed Portfile for darcs-2.0.0pre3 
attached here:

   http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/attachment/ticket/14634/Portfile

Where should I put this Portfile on my system if I'd like to try it out?

I skimmed the documentation and didn't see an answer.

Previously when someone has posted a patch I've just applied it to my 
existing local portfile.

Should I create a local ports repository just for this portfile?

I would also be great to get the cc: capability added to the Trac 
Ticket form. That would make it easier to follow progress on these 
two tickets.

This is what I've been doing:

It's worked fairly well for me so far...

Thanks for the pointer Chris.

I've created a local repository and have the darcs-2.0.0pre3 Portfile attached to:

  http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/14634

compiled and built.

After some cursory research about this problem, I discovered one posted
solution about first installing python25. It seems to work, although I have
no idea why python24 would be having such difficulty. HTH.

In a way, yes. Python has its own manpage-like docs system,
called, cunningly, pydoc.

So "pydoc pymetar" should give you a manpage-like description of
pymetars API (it's a library, so that's its primary
documentation). In case you don't have pydoc, the package comes
with a file called librarydoc.txt which is identical in content. As
for a more general description, there's also a README. Where
those files typically end up in the macports package system, I
don't know.

Pymetar comes with two example scripts, called pymet and
weather.py. Both are examples only but might be enough for what
you need.

Unfortunately, I don't know where macports packages usually put
the auxillary files for installed packages. The packager might
also have removed the examples, though I doubt it.

Maybe someone else on the -dev list can shed a light on this?

Tobias

'locate pydoc' should tell you what versions of pydoc you have. There will
be a system-supplied one in /usr/bin and MacPorts-provided ones in
/opt/local/bin, with version numbers attached. I found pydoc2.5. I couldn't
get it to run in the terminal in any useful way but running it like this:

pydoc2.5 -p81
pydoc server ready at http://localhost:81/

was useful. But for all that, I found that there was no documentation for
metar (I just installed it to see how this worked). I don't know why it
wouldn't be installed by default.

Poking around in the build directory might be informative. I would file a
bug report, as I think all modules/libs should install docs if they have
them.

And as noted, there are sample scripts:
# weather.py kbfi
Weather report for Seattle, Seattle Boeing Field, WA, United States (kbfi)
as of 2008-03-23 13:53:00Z
Values of "None" indicate that the value is missing from the report.
Temperature: 6.7 C / 44.1 F
Rel. Humidity: 88%
Wind speed: 4.02 m/s (3 Bft)
Wind direction: 120 deg (ESE)
Pressure: 1016 hPa
Dew Point: 5.0 C / 41.0 F
Weather: rain; mist
Sky Conditions: overcast

They will likely provide a lot of useful details.

It just works for me. Like:
$ pydoc2.5 list

I don't have py25-metar, but
$ pydoc2.5 pymetar
should work.

So where does pydoc find it's documentation? Obviously it is either 
missing from the py25-metar port or pydoc2.5 does not look at the right 
location.

First of all, run
$ sudo port clean zlib
and then try the update again.

Second, copy the *full* error message.

I just ran sudo port -d upgrade zlib and this time it worked. 
I'm pretty sure I've tried this before (maybe minus the debug 
option) and it had failed.

Subject: Is py25-numpy corrupted?
Message-ID: <47E6EAD9.4030903@freeuk.com>

I am trying to install some ports (probably Gramps) that seem to require 
py25-numpy - this is not currently installed in my copy of MacPorts.
On trying to install p25-numpy, I get the following log:

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
bash-3.2# port install py25-numpy

Error: Target org.macports.checksum returned: Unable to verify file 
checksums
Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.
 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

This looks as if one of the files is corrupted on the MacPorts server or 
else the portfile is not consistent with the downloaded files.

Has anyone else experienced this before? Is there a workround?

Thanks for any help you can provide

Looks like you got a corrupted download, try

$ sudo port clean --dist py25-numpy (ignore the warning regarding
removing the distfiles directory)
$ sudo port install py25-numpy

Actually, you should use
$ sudo port clean --all py25-numpy
to also reset the state of the build.

Otherwise, 'port checksum' would assume the file was already fetched and 
complain that the file does not exist in the distfile directory.

OK - 'sudo port clean --all py25-numpy' did the business and py25-numpy 
has now installed successfully.
I had tried a simple 'sudo port clean py25-numpy' earlier but that 
hadn't worked

Many thanks to Rainer & Adam for your help

Great, clean would have just cleared the state, clean --dist would
have just removed the distfile so Rainer was right, both needed to be
reset.

Subject: Uninstalling ports & meaning of install variants
Message-ID: <488e9ef00803231846p24750b15h33e2aa5c4cfe30e6@mail.gmail.com>

Hello all,

Forgive me for my ignorance, but I seem to have misunderstood how macports
works.

My first question is how to uninstall a port once installed.  I ran port
uninstall on several ports, but it seems that all of the related files and
directories were left behind.

Secondly, when performing an install and including variants (i.e. port
install php5 +mysql5 +apache2), macports seems to install full versions of
the variants, as opposed to just including the necessary modifications to
php.ini.  Am I interpreting this correctly?

Thanks in advance,
-ilija

I had an avahi probleme due to thuis missing user.
I recently updated avahi to 0.6.22_0 (from 0.6.17_0). It fixed the missing avahi 
user problem.
 But I'm still having an issue, apparently similar with Paul's one.

Would reinstall avahi solve the problem?
I have seen very few thread about the topic.
Paul, did you manage to get a working asahi?

To be honest, I'm not sure. This seems to be one of those areas where
MacPorts and Apple duplicate each other's efforts. I don't know if avahi is
supposed to do anything other than just be installed so other applications
don't grumble. An mDNS responder exists on OS X, anyway.
At the moment, my avahi isn't even running, for some reason. I don't know if
it matters or not.

To uninstall a port foo, type "sudo port uninstall foo".

There is a bug where the files will not be properly uninstalled if  
you specify the case of the port name incorrectly. For example, if  
you install the port ImageMagick, but then say "sudo port uninstall  
imagemagick" (instead of "sudo port uninstall ImageMagick") the files  
will remain.

I'm not sure I understand the question exactly...

"sudo port install php5" installs a basic command-line version of  
php5 with features most users will want. "sudo port install php5  
+apache2" installs command-line and apache2 versions of php5. "sudo  
port install php5 +apache2 +fastcgi +mysql5" installs command-line  
and apache2 and fastcgi versions of php5 which also include mysql5  
support. None of the variants of the php5 port modify your php.ini,  
but there's also nothing that needs to be done to the php.ini to for  
example activate mysql5 support. It's not like on Windows where you  
need to load a separate DLL. When you select the +mysql5 variant,  
mysql5 support is simply built into the php5 library and/or binary.  
Does that explain it?

thanks for the reply Paul.
gives no hope though :(

I've had this message for months.
It's polluting my console log and probably consumes resources.

As you say, some other applications need it. So it's not even possible  
to uninstall.

HI!


How to port manually downloaded source tar-balls? It seems to be very simple
but I can't find out any information on this.

And something else. Installing from MacPorts-1.6.0.pkg without
runninginternet connection result
in error. This makes some inconvenience, because user have to define
environment paths manually.

Message-ID: <C17A650A-945B-4AC5-97ED-D98A16D6A3A0@gmail.com>

Hi everyone,

I installed gnuplot the other day and then I tried to plot something  
and it didn't work. Then I figured that the installed gnuplot starts  
without any terminal:

Terminal type set to 'unknown'

so if I choose a different terminal, like "set terminal x11" then it  
plots fine. Is this because of a bug in the installation??? It's  
probably nothing but I wanted to let you know about this problem.

Hi all,


Another thread mentioned pydoc, so I decided to look at it and ran  
'pydoc modules'. Although it ran, it first returned a very strange  
error (a number of times):

The process has forked and you cannot use this CoreFoundation  
functionality safely. You MUST exec().
Break on  
__THE_PROCESS_HAS_FORKED_AND_YOU_CANNOT_USE_THIS_COREFOUNDATION_FUNCTIONALITY___YOU_MUST_EXEC__ 
() to debug.

I've seen this before when I run tkinter based python apps. But  
everything seems to work just fine.

What is causing this error? Is it a problem? Can it be removed/fixed  
somehow?


Thanks!

Subject: using an http proxy?
Message-ID: <2ad40b840803240807v5755f5cal90b51c5e15152b0e@mail.gmail.com>

My place of employment has everything locked down except for port 80 so I
have to use an http proxy.
I can use curl from the command line with the proxy option so I know it
should work for Macports, but a web search and the reading of the Macport
Wiki, FAQ and other docs has not shown that Macports can take advantage of
the proxy option for libCURL or the curl command.
I have used the libCURL library using the libCURL proxy facility to fetch
http data with C++, so I know the proxy can work through both the library
and the command.

I suppose I could look around in the source and hack it to use a proxy
option is an arbitrarily named (by me) proxy file exists and using the proxy
for the curl command invocation. But then it would break on Macports
updates.

Is there an 'official' way to do this? One that should hold up through
Macport updates?

It's a bug that is a result of the interaction between Python and 
Tkinter (Tcl/Tk) on Leopard, owing to some changes in how CoreFoundation 
handles processes.  See http://bugs.python.org/issue1676 for some 
additional details. As far as I can tell it's harmless. I haven't 
noticed any performance issues in the Tkinter application I develop, 
apart from seeing tons of those error messages in my console logs.

I am not aware that anyone is actively working on the bug, since both 
the Python and Tk folks say it's the other one's problem.

I believe that this is the problem that I saw before.  It seems that  
by default dbus doesn't run while avahi does.
Just doing:
sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.dbus.plist
starts the dbus daemon and should allow avahi to connect to it properly.

And, for anyone who might be interested, I had an additional avahi  
problem where my log was filling up with:
Mar 23 17:41:06 Macintosh org.freedesktop.avahi-daemon[67]: Received  
packet from invalid interface.
Mar 23 17:41:36: --- last message repeated 9 times ---
Mar 23 17:41:36 Macintosh org.freedesktop.avahi-daemon[67]: Received

Mar 23 17:42:06: --- last message repeated 9 times ---
Mar 23 17:42:06 Macintosh org.freedesktop.avahi-daemon[67]: Received  
packet from invalid interface.

I found that the solution was just to kill it:
sudo avahi-daemon -k

at which point it automatically restarted and the errors went away.

If you set the standard curl proxy environment variables (http_proxy,  
FTP_PROXY, etc; see 'man curl'), this should get fetching of sources  
to work through the proxy.

However, for selfupdate, which uses rsync, there isn't a way to use  
the proxy.  I think in this case you have to use a subversion-based  
repository instead.  For this you need to checkout MacPorts[1], then  
updated your ${prefix}/etc/macports/sources.conf to point to the  
location of the dports directory instead of the rsync:// line.

According to ticket #13158 [1], you have to specify your proxy on the 
command line if using sudo, as it normally unsets environment variables:

$ sudo env http_proxy='foobar' port fetch $portname

This is still missing from the HOWTO section in the wiki [2], but 
requested. Any volunteers? :-)

Unfortunately if rsync is unavailable, there is no other way of updating 
base than downloading sources and compiling manually. But the ports tree 
can be synced with svn over HTTP/HTTPS.

why are you installing avahi?it already says on their Track that avahi is an
implimentation of mDNS. having 2 of those on the same machine would clearly
be a problem, simply use Bonjour. The Avahi mac people will simply have to
make their avahi damon work around Bonjour becasue removing bonjour will
most likely break mac os functionality.

It is a native Cocoa terminal for gnuplot and my gnuplot installation 
seems to use it automatically. At least I never had to set terminal myself.

Also, aquaterm is a dependency of gnuplot and should have been installed

Well, gnuplot depends on aquaterm, but for some reason I don't have it  
in the system (I don't know why, I usually use the clean after I build  
the application). This is what it gives me when I try to install it:

garyw:~ aaragon$ sudo port install aquaterm

Error: Target org.macports.activate returned: Image error: /Library/ 
Frameworks/AquaTerm.framework/AquaTerm already exists and does not  
belong to a registered port.  Unable to activate port aquaterm.
Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.

What does it mean?

To me it means try this:

    sudo rm -r /Library/Frameworks/AquaTerm.framework/Aquaterm
    sudo port install aquaterm

It is installed as part of a dependency chain.
I have gimp installed, which depends on librsvg, which depends on  
gnome-vfs which in turn depends on avahi

I don't really know why avahi is necessary (or if it actually is  
necessary), but both avahi and Bonjour seem to be working fine, and  
coexisting, on my machine.

You can place downloaded tarballs into ${prefix}/var/macports/ 
distfiles/${name} where ${prefix} is usually /opt/local and ${name}  
is the name of the port you're trying to install.

The installer tries to run a selfupdate. This requires an Internet  
connection. I believe this has already been changed in trunk to no  
longer be a fatal error. We just haven't had another release of  
MacPorts since then.

There is a bug in the 1.6.0 installer where the paths do not get set  
up correctly in your environment so you must do it manually. This has  
already been fixed in trunk.

I cannot do that, can I? Probably that framework is used by the system.

Not necessarily.  /Library/Frameworks/AquaTerm.framework on my Mac is dated
March 7.  I think MacPorts installed it:

    % grep /Library /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/ports/aqua/aquaterm/Portfile
            system "install_name_tool -change /Library/Frameworks/AquaTerm.framework/Versions/A/AquaTerm ${prefix}/lib/libaquaterm.1.dylib \
            xinstall -d -m 0755 ${destroot}/Library/Frameworks
                ${destroot}/Library/Frameworks

Nope, that's part of AquaTerm, which is not made by Apple.

More probably, you installed AquaTerm either manually, or with  
MacPorts before, then removed MacPorts without first uninstalling  
AquaTerm, then reinstalled MacPorts, so that it now has no idea that  
it previously installed these files.

Not sure if any of this means it has to be running, just so long as it's
installed. It doesn't look like avahi has been running here and I haven't
noticed anything missing.

thanks for the tip Adam.

but the dbus is already started in my case:
It's avahi-daemon that cannot start.
For some obscure reason, it  cannot connect to dbus...

Yes, just like Skip said:

   sudo rm -r /Library/Frameworks/AquaTerm.framework/Aquaterm
   sudo port install aquaterm

You could also just tell MacPorts to force the installation:

   sudo port -f install aquaterm

For any file that MacPorts wants to install that already exists, it  
will first rename the existing file, and tell you about it. You can  
then manually remove those renamed files later if you want.

BTW, I ran into precisely these problems when migrating from my old
PowerBook to my shiny new MacBook Pro.  I naively assumed MacPorts was
wholly contained in /opt/local so I just rm -r'd it and started over.  I
only learned later that it sprinkles some files outside of that tree.  I
have several times needed to simply zap something MacPorts complained about.

Are you sure about that?
Because I had the identical set of errors a while back and I believe  
that relaunching dbus solved it.  I think that avahi was trying to  
connect to dbus and failing because dbus was not running.  But most of  
the errors that showed up were avahi errors.
Do you get any errors in your system log if you do:
sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.dbus.plist

When I had the error there were some existing files that confused  
dbus, so it would not restart properly.
What about if you do this:
sudo launchctl unload /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.dbus.plist
sudo rm /opt/local/var/run/dbus/pid
sudo rm /opt/local/var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket
sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.dbus.plist

Does that get the errors to go away?

Adam, you're great :)
it worked. I actually had 'org.macports.dbus: Already loaded' when  
trying to load dbus.
I didn't think restart it could solve the problem.
Anyway I didn't know how to, thanks for the set of instruction.

Let's see if this support a reboot.

Paul, I had the message:
24/03/2008 12:05:14 PM org.freedesktop.avahi-daemon[523]  
dbus_bus_get_private(): Failed to connect to socket /opt/local/var/run/ 
dbus/system_bus_socket: Connection refused
24/03/2008 12:05:14 PM org.freedesktop.avahi-daemon[523]  
WARNING:Failed to contact D-Bus daemon.

So I figured asahi needed to connect to DBus...
I don't understand what is the relation between the two.

thanks
Jean

Avahi is a total mDNS package, including an mDNS responder, utilities
for browsing mDNS resources, and libraries for integrating mDNS
services and discovery into applications. Clearly, we don't the mDNS
responder portion running if we are using the OS X mDNS responder, but
we do want the rest of it.

If I understand things correctly, applications wanting to use avahi
communicate with it via dbus.

Hum, it seems I have to restart dbus each time I reboot the machine.

Too bad :(

I also have run into even more vexing problems with gnuplot (version 4.2.2
to use with Octave) and it occured to me that it might be useful to mention
them here.  In a nutshell:

On a Mac Pro under X.4.11, exporting GNUTERM=aqua|x11 (the '|' is an 'or')
failed to produce a plot window.  Neither it nor error message appeared.
Nothing worked until I created the file '~/.MacOSX/environment.plist'
holding the GNUTERM variable and its value.  So far only the value 'x11'
works, with gnuplot opening in an X11 window.  Without my having installed
AquaTerm separately from what came with Octave (e.g. from MacPorts), set-
ting the value to 'aqua' produces nothing.

I don't know how relevant this is to the gnuplot problems discussed here,
but if there is interest I can forward my latest email exchange with Thomas
Treichl on the Octave list.

I a merely an egg.

I have mysql5 installed and working just fine

	port install mysql5 +server

I am curious about how I would go about installing, using, and/or  
switching back and forth if I did

	port install mysql5-devel

Do I need to deactivate/stop mysql5 first?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Thanks.

Is it possible to have an officially supported rsync service that  
listens on port 80 for people like us who cannot get standard rsync  
ports opened up on the firewall? Is there a technical reason why I  
can't be done or is it a resource issue?

The svn method of syncing uses port 80.

If you have done:

	sudo port install mysql5-devel +server

Then, to switch from mysql5 to mysql5-devel, do this:

	sudo launchctl unload -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/ 
org.macports.mysql5.plist
	sudo port deactivate mysql5
	sudo port activate mysql5-devel
	sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.mysql5-

Not that I'm aware of, but that doesn't mean there aren't any.

If another port has a library or runtime dependency on the one you  
are trying to uninstall, MacPorts will prevent you from uninstalling  
the port.

The php5 port does not install a directory called apache. The apache2  
port does install a directory called apache2; maybe that's what you  
mean. If you install php5 +apache2, the apache2 port is built and  
installed for you (if you had not already done so). MacPorts is  
designed to use its own software, not Apple's software; see the FAQ  
for why. php5 +apache2 also builds and installs an apache2-compatible  
php5 module into that apache2 directory.

Subject: mysql5admin
Message-ID: <47EA4ABE.3040305@sounddsl.com>


Folks,

I'm having a few difficulties with a new installation of Navicat playing 
nicely with my MySQL5 MacPorts installation.  One of the recommended 
actions from the Navicat site is a command called "mysqladmin", which I 
can't find anywhere (I've also tried "mysql5admin").  Is this an old 
instruction that has been deprecated and dropped?  Or is this part of 
another package I need to install?  Or are they just way out in left 
field over at the Navicat site?

Thanks for any help you can give me.

Thank you. That worked nicely.

Now I have to figure out why "mysql_upgrade" doesn't work at all...

Hi Chris,

The layout and naming of the mysql5 on macports is quite wacky, due to  
a probably misguided effort to allow the mysql 4 and 4 ports in  
coexist. The msyql_upgrade5 script (and probably others) suffer from  
this, and fail to work correclty.

I think the macports community would be better served by going to a  
more standard mysql installation layout and naming policy for mysql 5,  
and abandoning the wacky naming scheme.

(I've worked on various pieces of this over the years, and have come  
to this conclusion after banging my head repeatedly against this wall).

Message-ID: <p06240801c41030606792@[160.94.109.87]>

Hello,

Recently did the selfupdate and update installed ports. Now
when I try to run deluge, X11 starts fine but I get the error:

Failed to start message bus: Failed to read directory 
"/opt/local/etc/dbus-1/session.d": No such file or directory
EOF in dbus-launch reading address from bus daemon
I look in the directory reffered to and see:
-rw-r--r--   2 root  admin  2524 Mar 25 05:56 session.conf
-rw-r--r--   2 root  admin  2545 Mar 25 05:56 system.conf
drwxr-xr-x   4 root  admin   136 Mar 25 05:56 system.d

This began only after the most recent updating of ports.

I was getting the console messages about org.freedesktop.avahi-daemon
Looked at the ticket at 
http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/14163

Ran the commands and cleared up the console errors.

There are a couple of other users getting this same
error when trying to start deluge after doing updates.

Please let me know fi I can provide further information.

Thanks
Joe

MacPorts newbie here. Since the weekend when running 'sudo port  
install libpcap', fetching is tried from 6 sources, ultimately fails,  
and displays an error 'Status 1'. Is this common? Or can I reasonably  
assume some of the sites being tried will be back up within a week or  
so?

Message-ID: <5cbbe4ae0803261411j5e5ce0c5x3a47569c9f7a1b73@mail.gmail.com>

Does the following make sense in some strange way, or is this simply
a bug?

$ port installed apr
The following ports are currently installed:
  apr @1.2.12_1+darwin_9 (active)
  apr @1.2.8_0
$ sudo port uninstall apr @1.2.8_0
--->  Unable to uninstall apr 1.2.8_0, the following ports depend on it:
--->  	apr-util
--->  	subversion
--->  	subversion-perlbindings
--->  	subversion
Error: port uninstall failed: Please uninstall the ports that depend
on apr first.

Basically, I have 2 installed ports with different variants used. But
the dependency
check on uninstall does not seem to recognize the one with the variant
"darwin_9"
and complains, even though it should be happy, since the newer version
is there,
and dependencies are oblivious of variants (and versions). That looks
wrong to me.

Message-ID: <e97e83a30803261451t47240238n70eff99322d4e042@mail.gmail.com>

Is there a reason standard Python C modules such as _hashlib.so are
dropped into the site-packages directory when installed?  I realize
this doesn't matter for most uses, as the module is eventually found
on the path regardless, but it can cause bugs on the edge.

I just hit a problem when attempting to use virtualenv [1] with the
MacPorts Python.  It symlinks the basic stdlib modules and directories
like lib-dynload, re, csv, etc so you can have a virtual Python
working directory and even install other modules (even eggs) there,
etc.  The problem is, it fails to import hashlib because it should be
found in lib-dynload but it rather in site-packages with the other
"user-installed" modules.

Anyways, it works fine after I symlink the packages into lib-dynload,
but this might be something to fix in MacPorts regardless, no?

Thanks,
Brett

You would need to create a portfile. The Guide contains instructions:

http://guide.macports.org/

I also find it useful to just look at the source code of some of the  
existing portfiles. "port cat foo" or "port edit foo" can show you  
the source of the port foo, and "port file foo" can show you where  
the portfile is located on your hard disk.

Aha!  Thanks, Chris.  Don't know why the spotlight function couldn't 
find anything with mysqladmin in it.

Is there any way I can fix, or work around this error please?

Spotlight should have found "mysqladmin" (it did on my system). It  
won't find mysqladmin5 - that's a symbolic link to the actual  
executable file in /opt/local/lib/mysql5/bin/

Since you may already be at the command line

mac 5 # find /opt/local -name '*mysqladmin*'
/opt/local/bin/mysqladmin5
/opt/local/lib/mysql5/bin/mysqladmin
/opt/local/share/man/man1/mysqladmin.1.gz

This is simply a deficiency in the way MacPorts currently works.  
MacPorts only knows that apr-util, subversion et al depend on apr. So  
when you try to uninstall (any version of) apr, it complains. Since  
you already have a newer version of apr installed, it's fine to  
uninstall the older one. You just have to force it to overcome  
MacPorts' objections.

sudo port -f uninstall apr @1.2.8_0

A while ago I wandered fruitlessly around that bug tracker for about 30

libpcap's web site, tcpdump.org, appears to be down. We have no  
control over it. I have sent an email to the technical domain contact.

The last time this happened, someone uploaded the 0.9.5 source into  
the MacPorts repository as a backup. But the port is now at version  
0.9.8. I have now put the 0.9.8 source into the repository so  
fetching should work again.

Sorry to hear you had difficulty registering in the issue tracker. If

Sure...

I clicked on the register link top right, and got to a screen titled 
"Wordpress > Registration Form" with the subheading "Register for this 
blog", which seemed a little odd as I was registering for a bug tracker 
not a blog (although there was a MacOSForge logo, which was slightly 
reassuring). I entered my email address and chose a nickname. An email 
arrived bearing my password. I revisited the bug tracker and attempted 
to log in to the provided HTTP Basic Authentication dialog with my 
nickname, simonwheatley, and the password provided. It didn't work. I 
gave up. I've just replicated this by registering with the nickname simonw.

Hope this helps.

Hmm...did perform either of the confirmation steps as specified in the
'password' emails you received from mac ports?

As far as I know, you are supposed to login in with your email address.

The 'password' email I received from mac ports contained the following 
text (no confirmation step that I could see).

Whups - it was the confirm email for this list at which I was looking.
Sorry about the confusion.

Thanks Rainer, this got me one step further in. "Register" (top right) 
has now become "My Account", "Login" has become "Logout".

I clicked on My Account, and Firefox v2.0.0.13 alerted me to an 
unverified certificate [1] which I accepted temporarily for the session. 
This took me into a Wordpress user profile editing screen, so I changed 
my password to something more convenient. Logging in and out still 
worked with the changed password.

However I can't create a new ticket (I'm clicking on the 
ladybird/bug)... Apparently:

I appear to be logged in, but not to have permissions to create a new 
ticket. Hope this helps.

Watch the URL. I ran into this multiple times, too. Some sites redirect 
you to 'trac.macosforge.org', even if you logged in at 
'trac.macports.org'. You might not be logged in at the other domain?

Bill (our server admin) already said earlier this will change.

Subject: .profile not installed; 'ports' command not found
Message-ID: <87331D24-7248-4321-BB7D-621948533795@verizon.net>

Today I attempted to install Macports on an iBook G4 running MAC OS X  
10.4 (Tiger).  I followed the instructions at http:// 
guide.macports.org/#installing.  I met the prerequisites:    X11,  
Xcode Tools.  I downloaded the installer for MacPorts-1.6.0-10.4- 
Tiger.dmg and double-clicked for a default installation.

The installer proceeded normally, including running the installation  
script, and concluded by stating that the software had been installed.

I then went to the section in the docs  concerning MacPorts and the  
shell (http://guide.macports.org/#installing.shell).  Checking my  
home directory, I noted that no .profile file had been created  
there.  Furthermore, when, following the guide, I called 'sudo port  
selfupdate', I was told, "sudo: port: command not found".

I repeated all of the above, with no better results.  Can anyone  
diagnose?

Thanks in advance.Jim Keenan

It installs fine for me on Mac OS X 10.4.11. Maybe Leopard is strange  
yet again. Any other Leopard users want to report?

There is a bug in MacPorts 1.6.0 which prevents the .profile from  
being created. You'll have to create it yourself. The bug has been  
fixed in trunk but we haven't released a new version of MacPorts  
since then.

Hi

I've run into this bug:
http://trac.macports.org/projects/macports/ticket/14075

There is a suggested fix of manually setting the CXX value in the
build directory.  Which I've done, only to hit another issue:

No problems on 10.5.2 intel macbook, I just tried it.

Is there a reason why a new release hasn't been cut, considering how many
new users are getting bitten by this bug?

Subject: Ports requiring X11 on Leopard
Message-ID: <fee4d890803271842s2ae24f45v9a356729658ae06@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,

I have recently started using Leopard and have found that ports that require
X11 cannot find the necessary libraries.  This is frustrating as they worked
fine on Tiger.

I was able to solve my problems by adding

configure.pkg_config_path
${prefix}/lib/pkgconfig:${x11prefix}/lib/pkgconfig

 the Portfile .  Why is this not necessary on Tiger?  I don't remember
configuring anything special when I set up Tiger.

Also, which is better to use:
lib:libX11:XFree86  or
port:xorg-libX11 ?

Michael

Hi,

I've now got Xcode 2.5 running on my computer. I uninstalled xcode  
2.0, and installed 2.5. The customizable options were a fair bit  
different to the 2.0 installer (e.g. no options for individual SDKs  
etc.). I only installed "Xcode IDE and Tools." I had a look at the  
information for the other options, but none of them appeared  
relevant. I didn't bother reinstalling Macports, as the folders and  
files appeared intact.

I then attempted to continue Gnumeric installation (sudo port install  
gnumeric), but now have a new (unique) error message for python,  
which I have reproduced below.

Cheers,
Pete.
