#14490: gimp installation hangs --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Reporter: sica@uwo.ca | Owner: macports-tickets@lists.macosforge.org Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0 Resolution: | Keywords: gimp --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Comment(by monnom@gmx.net): Replying to [comment:6 rhwood@…]:

Can you just let this process run overnight?

I'm wondering if, since installing gimp builds and installs a number of ports, this may just be a long and intense process. I know that when I'm building on my PowerBook, even installing small and simple ports bogs everything else down.

As I am also bitten by this bug I created a log file for you by letting the seemingly hung process run over night. Well it wasn't hung and as much as I can tell from the log the port doesn't like my environment or something. My computer is a PowerBook 867 MHz running 10.4.11 (fully patched) with the German language UI. MacPort 1.6 is installed and works. I verified this by installing slrn. I am going to add the log "overnite_install.log.gz" to this bug. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/14490#comment:7> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
