svn and getting the source
by Michael Stevens 25 Dec '06

25 Dec '06

Hi. Anyone know how to get the source at the moment? I had a previous checkout of darwinports, so I thought "svn up" would do the trick, but it just says: Skipped '.' Looking at the website, http://www.macports.org/?page_id=4 refers me to a wiki page on committer docs that doesn't exist. Michael

UPDATE/RFE: openmpi-1.1.1 -> 1.1.2, +fortran variant
by Mark Moll 21 Dec '06

21 Dec '06

[I can't create tickets since the wordpress/trac merge, so maybe someone else can create a ticket.] This is a version bump for OpenMPI. I have added a fortran variant, which is needed for the ARPACK port with the mpi variant (see my next message). -- Mark

mzscheme Portfile woefully out of date
by Kevin Ballard 20 Dec '06

20 Dec '06

It appears the mzscheme Portfile is at version 209, despite the current version being 360. Version 209 doesn't support x86 darwin compilation. Markus, are you active and do you care to update this, or should it be thrown to the wild to update? -- Kevin Ballard http://kevin.sb.org eridius(a)macports.org http://www.tildesoft.com

NEW: arpack, a package for solving large scale eigenvalue problems
by Mark Moll 18 Dec '06

18 Dec '06

[I can't create tickets since the wordpress/trac merge, so maybe someone else can create a ticket.] New port: arpack. ARPACK is a collection of Fortran77 subroutines designed to solve large scale eigenvalue problems. homepage http://www.caam.rice.edu/ software/ARPACK/ The solvers for complex (single and double precision) seem to be buggy, based on my limited testing using the example programs that come with the ARPACK distribution. I'm not sure whether this is a problem with gfortran, an incompatibility between ARPACK and the Accelerate framework, or another problem with the way I build ARPACK. There is an mpi variant, which will install P_ARPACK (the parallel eigenvalue solver) as well. This requires a working mpif77 (see my previous message). -- Mark

UPDATE: file 4.17 -> 4.19
by Cédric Luthi 18 Dec '06

18 Dec '06

http://trac.macports.org/projects/macports/ticket/11158 The file port 4.17 is broken because the file-4.17.tar.gz archive is no longer on the mirrors of the Portfile. There are now versions 4.18 and 4.19. The attached patch addresses the issue by bumping the version and updating the checksum. Please commit as soon as possible ;-) Regards. Cédric Luthi

Important vim update
by Kevin Ballard 14 Dec '06

14 Dec '06

I have an update to the editors/vim port ready to commit, which bumps the version from 7.0.91 to 7.0.178 while at the same time fixing a bug that prevented it from compiling at all with the +ruby variant. mij, any objections to me committing it? Also, I'm curious, why does the darwin x86 port pass --disable-darwin as a ./configure arg? -- Kevin Ballard http://kevin.sb.org eridius(a)macports.org http://www.tildesoft.com

I'm having the same difficulties with creating new tickets and going to my account page since the wordpress/trac merge. I have been able to create tickets in trac before the merge... -- Mark

Commit changes for a ticket
by Bryan Blackburn 14 Dec '06

14 Dec '06

Back in the bugzilla days, one would reassign a bug to the -bugs address to signify that a committer was needed to apply a patch. With trac, I'm not sure what the new system is, other than to say something here. Is that the current procedure? The ticket is 11069 (<http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/11069>) for the md5deep port. Thanks, Bryan

Pantomime ticket - assign to whom?
by Kevin Ballard 14 Dec '06

14 Dec '06

For a while now, the ticket #5622 has been assigned to me (my kevin(a)sb.org address), though the bug itself is actually against the gnustep/Pantomime port (my port, which I'd be more than happy to give up since I don't know anything about the port itself, is mail/ Pantomime-Framework). The maintainer of gnustep/Pantomime is yves(a)macports.org. With my new commit bit, I was going to go re- assign the bug to him, but he's not in the list of people one can assign bugs to. To what address should I assign the bug? -- Kevin Ballard http://kevin.sb.org eridius(a)macports.org http://www.tildesoft.com
