#30997: gdbm @1.9.1 configure error: cannot create a temporary directory -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Reporter: jlg@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.0.1 Keywords: | Port: gdbm -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Comment(by jlg@…): You're right! I looked at 30749, and tried "upgrade outdated" again using sudo instead of simply running it as root. The problem does not occur, everything works as it should. Very strange. Maybe a sandbox issue of some sort. On this system, I also notice a bunch of those temp directories in /var/folders, which (I'm assuming) must have been left around after previous ports that were installed by root, without using sudo. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/30997#comment:4> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
