#36524: base: truncated computed checksums on pure darwin ----------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: daiyu.hurst@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: reopened Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: base | Version: 2.1.2 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: | ----------------------------+-------------------------------- Comment (by daiyu.hurst@…): Hi Ryan, I'm working with the pre-built images that Apple provides here: http://opensource.apple.com/static/iso/ Since they've not seen fit to release a later version of Darwin, and building one myself would be a larger meta-task than is justified by the task at hand, I'm cobbling together just what I need to do the job. I played with each of the images, but settled on the latest available: http://opensource.apple.com/static/iso/darwinx86-801.iso.gz This image comes with no X, but does have gcc 3.3, gcc 3.3 "fast", gcc 3.5, and gcc 4.0. Then I downloaded MacPorts 1.60 and built & installed it, sync'd, followed by 1.8.2 & another sync. Next, I installed XFree86, having read ticket #22067 dealing with this. After that, I downloaded, built, and installed MacPorts 1.9.2, and sync'd. I installed the gcc_select port at this point. Following that, I downloaded, built, and installed MacPorts 2.0.3 using gcc 4.0. Here I'll mention I usually keep gcc 3.3 the default compiler unless I have something fail to compile. I have little experience with gcc since 2.95, and 4.0 is just kinda terra incognita. With MacPort 2.0.3 installed, I changed the default compiler selection back to 3.3, and installed the wget port. Although I've used computers since they were powered by steam, and love old stuff, I had no intention of using X windows by itself, I just needed it in place to add a nice gui, gnome 2 or later. The gnome install attempt failed, so I downloaded, built, and installed MacPorts 2.0.4, and still got no love. The jump then from 2.0.4 to 2.10 was where I began encountering this problem with the checksums, which persist with 2.1.2. So, if you'd prefer to close this and move on, no harm-no foul; but if you're puzzled enough by it to proceed, I'll send you any additional attachments you'd like, and I have another drive that I can wipe and do this entire process on again if need be. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/36524#comment:13> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
