Keyboard problems?
by Gregers Petersen 17 Dec '06

17 Dec '06

Dear All I did recently acquire an Intel MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo, 2 GB RAM, DK Keyboard - I run OS X 10.4.8 with all required updates. I use english localization with DK keyboard. I'm a tcsh user - and have added MacPorts path to my .tcshrc Have installed MacPorts 1.3.1.1 + done selfupdate. But, I have a problem in regard to applications installed via MacPorts --> All third level key-combinations are "dead". Example: alt+@ is expected to result in the output of '@' or alt+) should output ] ... and so forth. This does work as expected in 'aqua' and X11 - except in the case of applications installed via MacPorts? I have via MacPorts installed, and the problem exists in: Bluefish Wireshark Gaim etc. I have never had a similar problem like this - have been using DarwinPorts for approx. 4 years and OS X since 10.1.3. I have no idea about what to look for, all I've been looking through looks fine ?? -- gregers/ FreeBSD 6-Stable since the 14. of February

Problem installing GnuCash
by Andrew Wilson 15 Dec '06

15 Dec '06

Hi all, I have been trying to install GnuCash Version 2 on Mac OS X 10.4 using the release in Macports and get the following error: ------------------------ grep: /Users/Shared/Downloads/ChatServer-37.1/build/usr/local/lib/libintl.la: No such file or directory sed: /Users/Shared/Downloads/ChatServer-37.1/build/usr/local/lib/libintl.la: No such file or directory libtool: link: `/Users/Shared/Downloads/ChatServer-37.1/build/usr/local/lib/libintl.la' is not a valid libtool archive make[5]: *** [libgncmod-gnome-utils.la] Error 1 make[4]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[3]: *** [all] Error 2 make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make: *** [all] Error 2 Error: Status 1 encountered during processing. ------------------- Why is it trying to access a library from ChatServer? I have tried most things, including updating all the dependencies on the gettext supplied libintl library. I am on MacPorts version 1.320 and have done a recent sync. Any ideas? Thanks Andrew

A variety of problems
by Eric Angell 14 Dec '06

14 Dec '06

Since gnucash 2.0 was released five months ago, I've been anxiously awaiting a binary fink package, which I understand is slow in coming because of some experimental library dependencies. However, I recently noticed that there is now a portfile for it, and got excited. Gnucash is somewhat infamous for being a pain to compile by hand because of its huge pile of dependencies, so having that taken care of automatically sounded great. I've successfully used darwinports in the past with good success, so I set out on what has turned into a fool's errand. In a perfect world, I would expect that all I would have to incant to achieve such a feat would be something along the lines of: `port sync; port selfupdate; port sync; port install gnucash`, so I started with that. The port install failed for some reason (that I didn't record, sorry), so I figured maybe a `port update all` would help. It at least ran to completion without incident. Well, it substantially altered my default Muttrc, about which I'm pretty displeased, but everything at least compiled successfully. I then reran my gnucash install line, and had problems creating destroot for qt3. Specifically, it was trying to move something like /opt/local/var/db/dports/build/_private_opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.darwinports.org_dpupdate_dports_x11_qt3/work/destroot/opt/local/lib/*.* to ~destroot/opt/local/lib/qt3/lib, and nothing was matching the glob. After a bunch of poking around, I found that the stuff it was looking for had actually been built in ~destroot/private/opt/local/lib, so I moved it over, convinced archive to rerun with some difficulty*, and all was happy. I have no idea why it was building the libraries in ~destroot/private/opt/..., since it built everything else in ~destroot/opt/..., but there it was. *: if I run port with -f, I expect the step to run, regardless of what the state file says; I don't expect to have to edit the state file by hand. `port clean --archive qt3` didn't even have the desired effect, though it printed a message that claimed to have done so. WTF? The qt3 hurdle passed, I continued with my port install gnucash aspiration, and came to the next dependency, aqbanking. If you guessed that it went poorly, you'd be right! ld: warning prebinding disabled because dependent library: /opt/local/lib/libgwenhywfar.38.dylib is not prebound ld: warning can't open dynamic library: /opt/local/lib/libintl.3.dylib (checking for undefined symbols may be affected) (No such file or directory, errno = 2) ld: Undefined symbols: _libintl_dgettext referenced from libgwenhywfar.38 expected to be defined in /opt/local/lib/libintl.3.dylib _libintl_bind_textdomain_codeset referenced from libgwenhywfar.38 expected to be defined in /opt/local/lib/libintl.3.dylib _libintl_bindtextdomain referenced from libgwenhywfar.38 expected to be defined in /opt/local/lib/libintl.3.dylib /usr/bin/libtool: internal link edit command failed make[5]: *** [libaqbanking.la] Error 1 make[4]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[3]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make: *** [all] Error 2 In fact, it couldn't find /opt/local/lib/libintl.3.dynlib because it didn't exist, so I suppose my frustration should be more focused on gettext than on aqbanking. Google led me to http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/wiki/ProblemHotlist, which had me run a shell script to find a list of packages to rebuild. That might have been fine, except the script assumed that `port provides /path/to/foo` works correctly...nope: ~% port provides /opt/local/bin/ethereal /private/opt/local/bin/ethereal is not provided by a MacPorts port. ~% port contents ethereal | grep /opt/local/bin/ethereal /opt/local/bin/ethereal ~% port -v -d provides /opt/local/bin/ethereal DEBUG: Changing to port directory: /opt/local/bin/ethereal /private/opt/local/bin/ethereal is not provided by a MacPorts port. In fact, I can't find anything that `port provides` knows about, and the debug message about trying to treat /opt/local/bin/ethereal as a directory is pretty suspicious. So I chopped up the script and just got a list of files in which otool -L found references to libintl. I'd post it here, but it's 53 lines and I suspect it would just be distracting. I'll certainly provide it on request. I don't really want to identify the source packages for all 53 of those and rebuild them by hand. That's why I'm using a package _manager_. In fact, at this point, I've basically given up, and I'm going to reinstall fink's binary package for gnucash 1.8 when I next have time to work on this. Considering how well this install has gone so far, I really can't bring myself to continue when I expect I'll have more problems with most of the rest of the dependencies, and the list of them looks like this: Error: The following dependencies failed to build: aqbanking g-wrap slib-guile guile slib gconf libbonobo intltool p5-xml-parser orbit2 libidl popt gnucash-docs scrollkeeper docbook-xml docbook-xml-scrollkeeper docbook-xsl libxslt yelp gnome-vfs dbus gnome-mime-data howl neon libgnome esound audiofile libgnomeui gnome-keyring libbonoboui libgnomecanvas libart_lgpl libgtkhtml gail goffice libgnomeprintui gnome-icon-theme hicolor-icon-theme icon-naming-utils p5-xml-simple p5-xml-namespacesupport libgnomeprint bison m4 libgnomecups cups-headers libgsf libgtkhtml3 gal p5-finance-quote p5-crypt-ssleay p5-libwww-perl p5-compress-zlib p5-compress-raw-zlib p5-io-compress-base p5-io-compress-zlib p5-html-parser p5-html-tagset p5-uri p5-datemanip p5-html-tableextract If anyone can tell me something simple like "your darwinports install is completely messed up; run these five commands and wait 15 hours for everything to recompile", I'd be thrilled. Otherwise, consider this email a bug report. I'm not sure what packages I should really be filing reports against, so I'll let someone else do it or point me in the right direction and tell me what other info to include. I'm running Mac OS 10.4.8 on an iBook G4. uname -a says Darwin maunakea.magicpacket.net 8.8.0 Darwin Kernel Version 8.8.0: Fri Sep 8 17:18:57 PDT 2006; root:xnu-792.12.6.obj~1/RELEASE_PPC Power Macintosh powerpc Thanks for all the stuff that's worked, which is everything I've done with darwinports before now.

SVN Bus Error
by Doug Hall 14 Dec '06

14 Dec '06

I'm having trouble with SVN, I used to use svn 1.3.1 from /usr/local/bin. but then decided to upgrade to svn 1.4.2 and use MacPorts to do the dirty work for me. But, every svn command which accesses the net returns a Bus Error. Here's what svn.crash.log gives me: Report Version: 4 Command: svn Path: /opt/local/bin/svn Parent: bash [17994] Version: ??? (???) PID: 21622 Thread: Unknown Link (dyld) error: image not found Any help would be appreciated. It's appears that it can't link with the library which transfers things across the net -- but I have no clue how to fix it. MacPorts didn't complain during the build. Thanks, Doug

java-gnome
by Bob Portmann 14 Dec '06

14 Dec '06

It states on [1] that java-gnome "It is not likely that the GNOME Java bindings will be ported unless GTK is ported to Aqua.". Why is this? There are ports of pygtk, and gtk-sharp to Macports and it would seem that python and mono have the exact same issues as java. Like Java, both of these run their own interpreter or virtual machine and include other toolkits. Java-gnome is just a layer between java code and GTK and the GTK layer takes care of things on the X11 end. One could run the java code from an X-term and it should work fine. Am I missing something here? Thanks, Bob [1] http://homepage.mac.com/rhwood/macports/gnome.html ____________________________________________________________________________________ Want to start your own business?

Thanks a lot for pointing me to the patch. Now it worked. However, along the way gcc-4.0.3 was also installed even though I have gcc-4.0.1 available which comes with Xcode. I wonder whether this is really necessary? Is there a way to tell `port' which compiler to use?
