#25800: cannot deactivate any port --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: thabangh@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: base | Version: 1.9.1 Keywords: | Port: --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Changes (by jmr@…): * component: ports => base Old description:
I am running MacPorts under Snow Leopard, and something seems to be messed up in such a way that various ports cannot be deactivated. Here is an example:
bash-3.2$ sudo port deactivate freetype @2.3.12_0+macosx ---> Deactivating freetype @2.3.12_0+macosx
This command hangs forever. Nothing appears in the log file. The only way to stop it is with a "sudo kill <pid>" command. Is there any way to get more verbose output from the port command, so that I can find out what's going wrong? Can I deactivate the port manually?
The same thing happens with other "deactivate" commands. I think the problem might have arisen because I issued the command "sudo port upgrade outdated" and then lost internet connectivity while the command was still executing.

The gconf build failure seems unrelated and should go in a separate ticket. Please attach debug output, i.e. the result of `sudo port -d deactivate freetype`. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/25800#comment:2> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
