#41166: gdb @7.6 Staging into destroot failed -------------------------------------------------+------------------------- Reporter: nimrodomer@… | Owner: macports- Type: defect | tickets@… Priority: Normal | Status: new Component: ports | Milestone: Keywords: gdb with-no-root-privileges | Version: 2.2.1 Maverick | Port: gdb -------------------------------------------------+------------------------- If I configure MacPorts with **--prefix=$HOME/.local**, gdb installs just fine. However, if I configure MacPorts with **--prefix=$HOME/.local** //and// with **--with-no-root-privileges**, it will not. The relevant part from the logfile: {{{ :debug:destroot Executing proc-post-org.macports.destroot-destroot-0 :info:destroot chgrp: you are not a member of group procmod :info:destroot Command failed: chgrp procmod /Users/deaddork/.local/var/macports/build/_Users_deaddork_.local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_devel_gdb/gdb/work/destroot/Users/deaddork/.local/bin/ggdb* :info:destroot Exit code: 1 :error:destroot org.macports.destroot for port gdb returned: command execution failed :debug:destroot Error code: NONE :debug:destroot Backtrace: command execution failed while executing "$post $targetname" :info:destroot Warning: targets not executed for gdb: org.macports.activate org.macports.destroot org.macports.install }}} I am using a mid-2012 MacBook Air with Maverick. The install command I used: **port install gdb**. I gather from the log file that I need to be part of group **ProcMod** in order to install gdb in Maverick. This is unfortunate, as I would rather not install code as root. FYI I did not have any problems installing gdb in Mountain Lion with **--with-no-root-privileges**.
