#20896: Perl 5.8 doesn't get to configure patching Configure failed "permission denied" (--with-no-root-privileges) ----------------------------------------+----------------------------------- Reporter: jonthn+macports@… | Owner: ricci@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.8.0 Keywords: | Port: perl5.8 ----------------------------------------+----------------------------------- Comment(by jonthn+macports@…): Okay after a break and searching again for the problem I found it. And made a patch. In fact the problem was simple. The unpacked source tree of Perl doesn't give write right to the 2 file to be patched. So in a pre-patch I give those rights and patching works and the build goes on. It would probably be better to verify the rights of the file to be patched in some internal function of the patch phase of MacPorts. Hope it's good -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/20896#comment:4> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
