#25368: policykit install fails ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: jpbn@… | Owner: devans@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.9.1 Keywords: | Port: policykit ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Comment(by sewebster@…): Ok. Well, I would try uninstalling some stuff. For instance, maybe get rid of perl5.10 if you don't need it. Then I would probably uninstall p5 -xml-parser and reinstall it. Hopefully this will put it into the right place and all will be well. I would probably remove whatever links you've made first so that macports will be sure to install the new versions (though probably it would anyway). Also, you may have to use the -f switch to force macports to uninstall active ports when they have dependents. This should be ok if you reinstall it right after. Note that everything in /opt/local/var/macports/software is not really "installed," or perhaps more accurately, "activated." So it is not being used. Macports "destroots" things into that directory and then only links the files into the main /opt/local tree when they are activated. So despite you having the file in a 5.8.9 directory on your system, it is not being used from there. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/25368#comment:15> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
