#29105: corruption - malformed partial flat receipt can be written ------------------------------------------+--------------------------------- Reporter: alangrow+macports@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: base | Version: 1.9.2 Resolution: wontfix | Keywords: malformed receipt Port: | ------------------------------------------+--------------------------------- Comment(by alangrow+macports@…): Gee that was helpful. You're probably tired of repeating yourself, so let me do it for you, for anyone else who stumbles over this ticket: ...existing installs will need their macports.conf edited in order to use it, by changing 'portdbformat flat' to 'portdbformat sqlite'. After making this change, your existing flat receipts will be converted the first time you run port(1) with sufficient privileges (this usually means using sudo; e.g. 'sudo port installed'). http://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/macports- announce/2010-June/000008.html -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/29105#comment:3> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
