#35085: installing QtiPlot - problem with libiconv -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Reporter: anonymi_90@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.1.1 Resolution: invalid | Keywords: Port: libiconv | -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Changes (by ryandesign@…): * status: new => closed * cc: ryandesign@… (added) * resolution: => invalid * port: => libiconv Comment: Why does that library already exist and not belong to a port? Sounds like you either manually installed software into your MacPorts prefix, or ran somebody's software installer which did so, or you previously used MacPorts and did an incomplete uninstallation before reinstalling it again. You can force the activation: {{{ sudo port -f activate libiconv }}} But if you cannot explain why that library was already there, there may be more than just libiconv's files there already, and you may run into this problem for other ports in the future. In that case, you may be better off following the [http://guide.macports.org/chunked/installing.macports.uninstalling.html MacPorts uninstallation instructions] completely, then reinstalling MacPorts and the ports you want; that way you can be sure there are no unwanted files there to start with. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/35085#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

It's true, I've previously had an old version of xcode and got a few error messages, maybe because of this there is this error. I will try uninstallation. Thx again! -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/35085#comment:2> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
