#46715: sudo port install xfig -----------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: barron@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.3 Resolution: | Keywords: tightvnc Port: | -----------------------+-------------------------------- Description changed by mf2k@…: Old description:

I am running OS X Yosemite, using Xcode 6.1.1 and just installed Maxports. I am running "sudo port install xfig" in my main directory. I get:

---> Building tightvnc Error: org.macports.build for port tightvnc returned: command execution failed Please see the log file for port tightvnc for details: /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_x11_tightvnc/tightvnc/main.log Error: Unable to upgrade port: 1 Error rebuilding tightvnc while executing

I looked in the log file and I see there are errors from some Makefile. I tried running sudo port clean (as the Macports ticket suggests) but this gives me an error message:

sudo port clean Can't map the URL 'file://.' to a port description file ("Could not find Portfile in /Users/barron"). Please verify that the directory and portfile syntax are correct. To use the current port, you must be in a port's directory

I have no idea what a port's directory is...

If/when it fails again, attach the main.log file so that we can see what happened. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/46715#comment:3> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
