#26918: MacPorts-1.9.1 compiled to XFS NFS files system -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Reporter: rletourneau@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: base | Version: 1.9.1 Keywords: | Port: -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Comment(by mathew.eis@…): I can confirm seeing the same issue. We see it regardless of whether the underlying nfs filesystem is xfs or ext3. The culprit appears to be in 'proc fileAttrsAsRoot {file attributes} {' in share/macports/Tcl/port1.0/portutil.tcl Specifically, the line 'eval file attributes {$file} $attributes' is trying to run (among other things), the following TCL command, which fails: file attributes /path/to/foo -readonly 0 Arguments about whether running MacPorts on a network aside, would it be possible to subvert this command? It seems to me unnecessary to forcibly state that a file should NOT be read-only. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/26918#comment:7> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
