I ran into this while trying to install php5-gd. The build failed, so I tried: sudo port clean pkgconfig then sudo port install pkgconfig but got the same error.

The log is attached.

New description: I ran into this while trying to install php5-gd. The build failed, so I tried: {{{ sudo port clean pkgconfig }}} then {{{ sudo port install pkgconfig }}} but got the same error. The log is attached. -- Comment (by ryandesign@…): It builds fine for me; there must be something special about your system. Comparing your log to mine, I see this in yours but not in mine: {{{ :info:build gconvert.c: In function 'g_iconv': :info:build gconvert.c:314: warning: passing argument 2 of 'libiconv' from incompatible pointer type }}} Perhaps there is a problem with your libiconv port. I've committed a change to pkgconfig to make the log more verbose. Could you please: {{{ sudo port selfupdate sudo port clean pkgconfig sudo port install pkgconfig }}} And attach the new main.log? Maybe that will help identify the problem better. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/37213#comment:2> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

The new log shows a different error: {{{ :debug:extract Executing command line: cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_devel_pkgconfig/pkgconfig/work" && /usr/bin/gzip -dc '/opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/pkgconfig/pkg- config-0.27.1.tar.gz' | /usr/bin/gnutar --no-same-owner -xf - :info:extract /usr/bin/gnutar: pkg- config-0.27.1/glib/glib/gunicodeprivate.h: Cannot open: File exists :info:extract /usr/bin/gnutar: pkg-config-0.27.1/glib/glib/gtree.c: Cannot open: File exists :info:extract /usr/bin/gnutar: Error exit delayed from previous errors }}} I don't see how the files it's trying to extract could already exist if you cleaned the port before trying, which the log shows you did do, so I don't understand. [http://fvue.nl/wiki/Tar:_Cannot_open:_File_exists This page] says the error "Cannot open: File exists" actually means permission denied. But I don't understand why permission would be denied for these two files only. You did use `sudo` when running the `port` command, right? (`sudo port install pkgconfig`) How was MacPorts itself installed—using the dmg you can download from our web site, or compiled manually from source? Have you been able to install any other ports? According to `tar -zf pkg-config-0.27.1.tar.gz` the archive contains 327 items. gunicodeprivate.h is 138 and gtree.c is 185; not sure what's significant about those two files. Does the `port work pkgconfig` directory contain other files that were successfully extracted? Could you `sudo port clean pkgconfig` again and then try again and see if you still get this same error? -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/37213#comment:4> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

Try manually deleting the directory /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_devel_pkgconfig, then cleaning and trying again. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/37213#comment:6> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
