#12861: port can't find package Pextlib 1.0 -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Reporter: clang@ecomarkenv.com | Owner: macports-dev@lists.macosforge.org Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: MacPorts 1.5 Component: base | Version: 1.5.0 Resolution: | Keywords: Pextlib -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Old description:

When I run port at the terminal prompt I get the following:

'' can't find package Pextlib 1.0 while executing "package require Pextlib 1.0" (procedure "mportinit" line 365) invoked from within "mportinit ui_options global_options global_variations" Error: /opt/local/bin/port: Failed to initialize MacPorts, can't find package Pextlib 1.0''

When I search with spotlight I find pextlib 1.0 in: /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macportsorg/release/base/src/pextlib1.0 as well as in: /opt/local/share/macports/Tcl/pextlib1.0

Can anyone tell me why port might not be able to find it?

I installed version 1.5.0 from the package installer from the disk image MacPorts-1.5.0-10.4.dmg

Report back here with new findings and please close the ticket if the problem goes away (in short, everything looks as expected on your system --at least with respect to the information you provided, which might not be enough-- so I don't see why you're getting this failure). -jmpp -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/12861#comment:3> MacPorts </projects/macports> Ports system for Mac OS
