#44220: latexml fails in ACTIVATION step. "mktexlsr not found" ------------------------------+---------------------------- Reporter: damon.english@… | Owner: bruce.miller@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.1 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: LaTeXML | ------------------------------+---------------------------- Comment (by bruce.miller@…): Ah, so the various scripts are TCL, so maybe the following is best: {{{ post-activate { catch { exec "mktexlsr" } } }}} After "fixing" that, I discovered that even with a proper Portfile, I still end up with the problem that the executables are installed in {{{/opt/local/libexec/perl5.16/sitebin/}}}, which is not in the typical user's path. Nor does that path get added automatically, as does {{{/opt/local/bin}}}. And frankly, it seems perverse to print a message to the user "Please add /opt/local/libexc/perl6.16/sitebin/ to your $PATH". From previous discussions here and on the mailing list, I gathered that the "recommended" solution is to add symlinks from {{{/opt/local/bin}}} to the actual installation. I've made those changes to the Portfile; Please, portfile experts take a look. If it's acceptable, please, @sean, could you commit the change?
