I am trying to install a free program called Scala that requires installation of MacPorts, and the ports "fontconfig" and "gtk2". These two seemed to install correctly from the terminal with the following commands:

sudo port install fontconfig sudo port install gtk2

which tells me (if I understand the way MacPorts works) I installed both Macports, and these specific ports correctly.

The instructions then ask me to modify my ".profile" file adding this line:

export PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:$PATH

which I did, and then install the libpng 1.4.5 or Combo Installer, which I did.

Then, because I have a 64 bit Imac, I was asked to use the following terminal command:

sudo port upgrade --enforce-variants gtk2 +universal,

and when doing this I got the following error messsage:

Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command failed (see log for details) Log for p5.12-xml-parser is at: /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_perl_p5 -xml-parser/p5.12-xml-parser/main.log Error: Unable to upgrade port: 1

Could anyone help me figure out why I cannot do this?

Here is the website with the complicated install instructions: http://www .huygens-fokker.org/scala/downloads.html I only put a comma at the end of the command because I copied it from the website. It said I needed that command because my iMac is 64 bits. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/32077#comment:5> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

And you know, we have scala in MacPorts. So all you should have needed to do was e.g. "sudo port install scala29" and it would take care of all the dependencies for you.

You said you installed "libpng 1.4.5 or Combo Installer". If that means you manually installed libpng, without using MacPorts, please uninstall it; it might interfere with MacPorts.

I tried installing Scala with the command "sudo port install scala29", but it seemed that when I tried to open scala after that, the icon in the dock just sat there for awhile and never loaded, eventually just quitting on its own. Can anyone tell me how to unsinstall the "libpng 1.4.5" thing? As ryandesign@macports.org had told me to do? -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/32077#comment:7> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
