#33583: macports fails to install when user directory is on secondary volume whose name contains spaces --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: pete.s.bradbury@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: base | Version: 2.0.4 Keywords: | Port: --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment(by pete.s.bradbury@…): Replying to [comment:2 ryandesign@…]:
Rename the volume that your home folder lives on so that it does not contain spaces.
Is there any likelihood of this 'defect' being fixed in any imminent new release? I've just had a look around at a couple of articles about renaming the folder, and the risk of losing everything outweighs the potential benefit of using macports. Also as no other piece of software that I am using or have used in the past has crashed due to my use of a space on either my SSD or HD drive, I'd hope that macport gurus might be able to fix this?
