#52789: Installing Git on Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) - Kerberos Issue ----------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: scrollwheelie | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.4 Resolution: duplicate | Keywords: git Port: | ----------------------------+-------------------------------- Changes (by larryv): * status: new => closed * resolution: => duplicate Old description:
Hey folks,
I would really like to install Git on Mac OS X 10.4. Everything works fine until it tries to install kerberos5 at which point it fails.
There's been some discussion about this [https://trac.macports.org/ticket/46701](here) but it doesn't seem to be resolved.
I'm not using Kerberos for my Git installation so I (naively) think I can just skip this step and see if the rest of the build works.
Is there any way to skip a pre-requisite package? If so, how can I alter this command?
Any help would be very much appreciated. I bought an old cube as a single-purpose writing machine and having Git is pretty important. Yes, I realize this OS is ancient and won't cry if it just can't be done.

That said, `git` does not have `kerberos5` as a dependency.
Never mind, spoke too hastily. `git` does depend on `p5.24-authen-sasl`, which depends on `p5.24-gssapi`, which depends on `kerberos`. This is not really about `git`, it’s about `kerberos5`. Since that is the core problem, you should should ping #46701 and try to get that resolved. That ticket seems to have a patch that just has not been applied. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/52789#comment:5> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for macOS
