#48207: Yosemite MacPort intallation file does not work ------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: avalade@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: base | Version: 2.3.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: | ------------------------+-------------------------------- Comment (by ionic@…): `rsync.macports.org/release` does exists, but not on the HTTP server. By default, MacPorts fetches the ports tree and base (source code of itself) via `rsync` - which uses port 873. If this port is blocked, you will be unable to do the initial sync. Either let your IT department allow outgoing connections to port 873 or switch over to HTTP fetching. The [[howto/PortTreeTarball]] wiki page documents how to do this (for the ports tarball.) I'll have to look up how to change base fetching to HTTP. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/48207#comment:6> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
