#25527: Can't install gettext for x86_64 because ncurses only contains i386 ----------------------------------------+----------------------------------- Reporter: daledouglas@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.9.1 Keywords: | Port: ncurses ----------------------------------------+----------------------------------- Comment(by ryandesign@…): Dale, any ideas? If you can't explain why your ncurses is i386-only (migration from a pre-Snow Leopard Intel Mac still seems likely to me), then you could simply rebuild it; it should be x86_64 this time: {{{ sudo port -n upgrade --force ncurses }}} However, if you don't know why ncurses is i386, it's possible other ports are inadvertently installed i386 as well. You may have a less-problematic future if you uninstall this questionable MacPorts installation (instructions are in the [http://guide.macports.org/#installing.macports.uninstalling guide]) and then reinstall it. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/25527#comment:9> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
