Yes, [[br]] I just installed macports today, having never used it before. The code compiled from the package installed (OSX 10.7.5) with no obvious errors, but then i tried 2 ports both gave same error message that i pasted in the previous email. These were for ImageMagick and when that didnt work i tried Pallet. [[br]] I do have a software bundle in /opt/local. It is a suite of seismic data processing scripts found here: [[br]] http://www.passcal.nmt.edu/ftp/software/passoft/osx/ [[br]] [[br]] Im bringing a laptop up to speed and perhaps it will be easier to do the imagemagick work on this machine if there is a conflict with installing macports somewhere else. Ive tried installing imagemagick from source, and that seems to be a chore. So far no luck, but i cant say these things are my strong point. [[br]] [[br]] Thanks for your time. [[br]] [[br]] Shad
Pallet is known to not work well right now, there are many open tickets. ImageMagick should work however. Did MacPorts print the location of a main.log file? If so please attach it to this ticket. If not, what is the exact command you ran? i.e. did you run "sudo port install ImageMagick"? I see one prior report of this error message in #27581 but the only resolution mentioned there was to reinstall MacPorts. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/40569#comment:2> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
