It looks like even nsis v2.33 compiles but does not work. I tried manually compiling v2.33 into /opt/nsis and get this: {{{ $ /opt/nsis/bin/makensis Error initalizing CEXEBuild: unable to read icon from file }}} I get this error even when compiling nsis svn trunk. So, nsis is broken at the source, I'll go there for more enquiries. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/13589#comment:3> MacPorts </projects/macports> Ports system for Mac OS
