Successfully installed wine 3.1 on my macbook pro 10.5.8. However, I tried editing part of wine through terminal, to enable 16 bit. Didn't work and wine stopped working, so I deleted the opt file on my macintosh HD folder. When I tried reinstalling, even after deleting and then reinstalling the necessary components (see the attached link, its the process I followed... worked the first time.) So now, each time I reinstall wine through the terminal command "sudo port install wine", the process is stopped when terminal is "activiating python27 @2.7.2_0+universal." Following this, I get this error message:

Error: Target org.macports.activate returned: Image error: /Applications/MacPorts/Python 2.7/Build Applet.app/Contents/Info.plist already exists and does not belong to a registered port. Unable to activate port python27. Use 'port -f activate python27' to force the activation.

When I tried to force activate python27 by using port -f, terminal states that the command "activate" is an unrecognized action... any advice how to proceed with this?

There is no bug here; MacPorts is correctly refraining from overwriting existing files. If you don't want the existing files, delete them. If you force the activation, they will be renamed. I can only assume you typed the command wrong or something, as {{{ sudo port -f activate python27 }}} should definitely work. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/29940#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
