#35432: some ports (XviD, g95, oracle-instantclient) missing from PortIndex --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: whcordis@… | Owner: admin@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: server/hosting | Version: 2.1.2 Keywords: | Port: --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Comment(by ohmygoddard@…): Thanks claude, this also resolved the issue above for me, and now XviD is there. Thanks for digging a bit deeper into the directories and posting back here -- it's very much appreciated. Replying to [comment:9 claude@…]:
I was able to solve this by doing what macports_org@matthammond.org suggested. However the ports directory was in the tarballs directory not in the release directory:
{{{ cd /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs/ports sudo portindex }}}
The output was:
{{{ Creating port index in /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs/ports Adding port databases/oracle-instantclient Adding port lang/g95 Adding port multimedia/XviD
Total number of ports parsed: 3 Ports successfully parsed: 3 Ports failed: 0 Up-to-date ports skipped: 15432 }}}
XviD was then found.
Doing a 'port selfupdate' by itself does not work... I have no idea why.
