#43859: New port version fails to uninstall ports: '": file name too long' ------------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: Peter_Dyballa@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: base | Version: 2.3.0 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: | ------------------------------+-------------------------------- Comment (by Peter_Dyballa@…): Replying to [comment:1 cal@…]:
This looks like an upgrade script gone wrong. `make install` of your update to 2.3.0 should have run `depup_portfiles.tcl` which should have moved the Portfiles from the registry to the filesystem and replaced the Portfiles in the registry database with the names of the directories. Apparently that didn't happen for you.
Yes, there was a bug with two Perl files with a bit special names …
Can you please post the output of {{{ sqlite3 $prefix/var/macports/registry/registry.db 'SELECT * FROM
metadata'
}}}
