[MacPorts] #15108: installing Mac Ports broke intel fortran precompiler, Carbon emacs, and gnuplot
#15108: installing Mac Ports broke intel fortran precompiler, Carbon emacs, and gnuplot -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Reporter: zahn@berkeley.edu | Owner: macports-tickets@lists.macosforge.org Type: defect | Status: new Priority: High | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0 Keywords: | -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Hi, I installed Mac Ports and in the process each carbon emacs, gnuplot, and ifort broke. To be more detailed, emacs doesn't open any longer in the X version, gnuplot doesn't have automatic file name extension anymore, and ifort doesn't compile programs with suffix .F, as the precompiler is broken. I have no idea how a simple install of macports could have caused all this trouble, but understandably I would like to just undo what I've done so I can use my computer again, without having to go through a complete reinstall of all my software. If there are any ideas out there I would greatly appreciate help. I already tried following the description in the FAW section of your page, for how to uninstall Mac Ports, but it didn't work. Thanks, Oliver -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/15108> MacPorts </projects/macports> Ports system for Mac OS

Which Emacs is this? (You can use "type emacs" or "which emacs" in the shell to see which one it is trying to start.) It is likely that the problem is simply one of your PATH being messed up. You can edit your .profile or whatever file MacPorts wrote, and remove the "/opt/local/bin" part from it. Did you try to install MacPorts into /usr/local, by any chance? That's not a good thing to do... -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/15108#comment:1> MacPorts </projects/macports> Ports system for Mac OS
