#16638: Error trying to install Dia -----------------------------------------+---------------------------------- Reporter: mfourdraine@journalnet.com | Owner: macports-tickets@lists.macosforge.org Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Updates Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0 Resolution: | Keywords: dia, cairo Port: dia | -----------------------------------------+---------------------------------- Old description:
When trying to install Dia I encounter an error when it tries to grab cairo 1.6.4 . I see that cairo has been upgraded to 1.7.4 and the old version may have been moved from the repository. I am not familiar enough with the ports system to make any required changed to my own system manually to allow the upgrade to continue.
Here is the portion of the install dialog where it chokes.

Not sure why you were unable to download it, as I see the file just fine here. Maybe the server was having issues when you tried, so you might either try again or have a look at the [http://trac.macports.org/wiki/ProblemHotlist#Fetchfailures fetch failures] problem entry to get port to download from the MacPorts mirror. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/16638#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
