#24588: Error: Unable to open port: invalid command name "ui_channels" ------------------------------------+--------------------------------------- Reporter: estrnod@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: base | Version: 1.8.2 Keywords: | Port: ------------------------------------+--------------------------------------- Comment(by jmr@…): I'm unable to reproduce this on a ppc Tiger machine. Looking at the code, there would have to be a bug in Tcl for this to happen, as the existence of ui_channels is explicitly checked before calling it. Have you changed Apple's stock Tcl installation in any way? -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/24588#comment:2> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

Before I discovered this, though, I installed ActiveTCL 8.5 (which installs it in /usr/local/bin and I had to make a symlink of /usr/bin/tclsh to it for port to work) and that solved the problem. (reverting might have also but I suspect I installed a different version to fix something else.) Thanks for the tcl tip. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/24588#comment:5> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
