#15989: Super-easy install of MacPorts doesn't work ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: groblewis@gmail.com | Owner: macports-tickets@lists.macosforge.org Type: defect | Status: new Priority: High | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0 Keywords: install, port | ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ I have a MacBook Pro with a dead-stock, plain vanilla, up-to-date installation of Leopard (and Xcode). I ran the 1.6.0 installer (twice, actually), and it reported success (both times). But when I tried this (another "super-easy" install): sudo port install ImageMagick (as recommended on the ImageMagick site) all I get after putting in my password is sudo: port: command not found And here's the output from ls -l /opt/local total 8 drwxr-xr-x 7 root admin 238 Jul 14 18:08 bin drwxr-xr-x 3 root admin 102 Dec 16 2007 etc drwxr-xr-x 3 root admin 102 Jul 14 18:08 include drwxr-xr-x 3 root admin 102 Jul 14 18:08 lib drwxr-xr-x 3 root admin 102 Jul 14 18:08 libexec lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 9 Jul 14 18:08 man -> share/man drwxr-xr-x 3 root admin 102 Jul 14 18:08 sbin drwxr-xr-x 6 root admin 204 Dec 16 2007 share drwxr-xr-x 3 root admin 102 Jul 14 18:01 var You'll notice there is no "port" command. It seems to actually be in /opt/local/bin/. Result of ls -l /opt/local/bin: total 344 -r-xr-xr-x 1 root admin 73568 Dec 16 2007 daemondo -r-xr-xr-x 1 root admin 83411 Dec 16 2007 port lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 4 Jul 14 18:08 portf -> port -r-xr-xr-x 1 root admin 4356 Dec 16 2007 portindex -r-xr-xr-x 1 root admin 2530 Dec 16 2007 portmirror Here's the result of echo $PATH: /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin I guess a *nix guru would know what to do, but I'm not one. Why didn't this "super-easy" install work? -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/15989> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
