MacPorts 2.2.1 has been released
by Joshua Root 26 Oct '13

26 Oct '13

The MacPorts Project is pleased to announce the release of version 2.2.1. This is a bugfix release with small changes only. See the ChangeLog [1] for the list of changes. If you already have MacPorts installed, the preferred method for updating is to run: sudo port selfupdate For new installs, there are also package installers available for 10.9, 10.7, 10.6, 10.5 and 10.4 (universal builds, the last two i386/ppc and the others i386/x86_64) at [2]. The source is also available as tarballs compressed with gzip or bzip2, or from the subversion tag [3]. A 10.8 pkg will be available soon; in the meantime you can use 2.2.0 for new installs and run selfupdate as above. Detached PGP signatures for the disk images, packages and source tarballs have been made with my key, which is available on the keyservers and my MacPorts wiki page [4], the fingerprint being: 0x01FF673FB4AAE6CD: C403 7936 5723 6DCF 2E58 0C02 01FF 673F B4AA E6CD The Mavericks pkg was built by Adam Mercer, and is signed with his Developer ID.

Prebuilt archives available for Mountain Lion
by Joshua Root 06 Dec '12

06 Dec '12

The MacPorts project is pleased to announce that prebuilt archives for OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion are now available for many ports, and will be used automatically when installing. A prebuilt archive cannot always be used, for a number of reasons: * Our archives are built only for the default prefix (/opt/local), so if MacPorts is installed in a custom prefix, it will not download them. This also applies to applications_dir (/Applications/MacPorts) and frameworks_dir (${prefix}/Library/Frameworks). * We only build archives for the default variants of each port. * Many ports do not yet list license information. * Some ports have a license that does not allow for distribution of binaries, or have a license that conflicts with the license of a dependency in a way that prevents such distribution. - Josh

Prebuilt archives available for Lion
by Joshua Root 11 May '12

11 May '12

The MacPorts project is pleased to announce that prebuilt archives for OS X 10.7 Lion are now available for many ports, and will be used automatically when installing. This is made possible by the capabilities added in MacPorts 2.0 and noted in the release announcement [1]. Many users will have noticed that archives started becoming available for Snow Leopard last year; these were produced by a pilot build server. A Lion build server was added recently, and as of yesterday, it finished attempting to build all available ports and placed the resulting archives on the download server. A prebuilt archive cannot always be used, for a number of reasons: * Our archives are built only for the default prefix (/opt/local), so if MacPorts is installed in a custom prefix, it will not download them. * We only build archives for the default variants of each port. * Many ports do not yet list license information. * Some ports have a license that does not allow for distribution of binaries, or have a license that conflicts with the license of a dependency in a way that prevents such distribution. Use of prebuilt archives can be disabled by using the -s option, as described in the port(1) man page. The upcoming 2.1.0 release includes a macports.conf setting that allows choosing this permanently. - Josh [1] <http://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/macports-announce/2011-July/000014.ht…>
