Samba: libsmbclient and ruby/smb
by Glen de Vries 09 May '07

09 May '07

I've been trying to get ruby/smb to compile against the Samba3 3.0.20b_darwin8 package, but to no avail. Although the header file is found, the smbclient library doesn't pass have_library("smbclient", "smbc_init") and the Makefile is never generated. Was wondering if anyone has successfully used smblibclient.dylib and or ruby/smb in this way? Thanks, Glen

Does gpg-agent now work with mutt? (Can ticket #3730 be closed?)
by Boey Maun Suang 09 May '07

09 May '07

Hi all, I just want to hear from users of mutt and gpg-agent as to whether or not there are still problems with using the two together; ticket #3730's patches are now outdated [1], there haven't been any substantial additions to it for over a year, gpg-agent is now up-to- date and the first comment on it suggests to me that it was never actually a problem. If nobody reports any problems in the 7 days about using mutt and gpg- agent together, I'll mark this ticket closed (we can always reopen it later). Kind regards, Maun Suang [1] http://trac.macports.org/projects/macports/ticket/3730 -- Boey Maun Suang (Boey is my surname) Email: boeyms(a)macports.org

Re: Install package from local file

(Re-sending this to the list to share the love.) > Can I let ports use the file I manually downloaded instead of > trying to download it? Just copy the files to the appropriate directory (${prefix}/var/db/ dports/distfiles/${portname}) -- you may find that you need to delete the *.TMP file there -- and it should all just work! As for your download problems, I'd like to offer some suggestions, but I'm afraid my only suggestion is that you have a buggy install of curl somewhere, or perhaps of one of its dependencies.

Php5 won't install, patches fail?
by Jeff Adams 09 May '07

09 May '07

I installed MacPorts but later had problems with readline. Turns out something else I'd installed prior to using MacPorts had installed an old version of readline in /usr/local/lib. No problem I think, I'll just remove it. However, it appears that MacPorts built itself against that version because the port command errored out when I moved the readline. Put it back, port works again. So I took the "simple" way out, I moved /opt to a temp directory and reinstalled MacPorts. Then I redid all my port installs. Those were: gperf apache2 subversion +mod_dav_svn mysql5 +server And then: php5 +apache2 +macosx +mysql5 And that bombed: ---> Applying patches to php5 Error: Target com.apple.patch returned: shell command " cd "/opt/local/var/db/dports/build/_opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.darwinports.org_dpupdate_dports_www_php5/work/php-5.2.2" && patch -p0 < '/opt/local/var/db/dports/sources/rsync.rsync.darwinports.org_dpupdate_dports/www/php5/files/patch-posix.c.diff'" returned error 1 Command output: patching file ext/posix/posix.c Hunk #1 FAILED at 16.

The posix.c.rej file doesn't seem to have anything useful in it (just the chunks of code it was trying to patch, no log/error messages). What I just noticed is that my old (working) copy, which is only from a few days ago, is: php5 @5.2.1_3+apache2+darwin_7+macosx+mysql5 Yet today it's trying to install 5.2.2. Is 5.2.2 not working? How can I force it to install the old version? When I try any variation on: sudo port install php5 @5.2.1_3+apache2+darwin_7+macosx+mysql5 It still downloads and tries to install 5.2.2.

qt4-mac port
by Jochen Küpper 09 May '07

09 May '07

Hi, I was quite happy to find out that there is a port of Qt4. However, when compiling (my own) Unix program against it using autotools/ libtool I found the following error: libtool: link: cannot find the library `' or unhandled argument `Carbon' This is due to the -framwork options in the .la files installed in / opt/local/lib. Removing all /opt/local/lib/libQt*.la files solves the problem (as documented elsewhere), but maybe MacPorts should take care o that, not?

Re: hosting an internal macports server with binaries

However, > I don't think there's any functionality in MacPorts to create or > use package files. That's not correct: the creation of binary packages was indeed one of the priorities of the orginal DarwinPorts project! Besides the .pkg format, MacPorts supports (nowadays, theoretically) the creation of .dpkg and RPM packages and the automatic building of .dmg disk images. In better times, there was even a repository (http:// packages.opendarwin.org) which was populated by running the script base/portmgr/buildall.sh and an experimental but usable project by Ole Guldberg Jensen, DPLight, which patched DarwinPorts to support directly the RPM registry (http://www.opendarwin.org/projects/dplight/) mounting the repositories via WebDAV was a simple but perfect solution not only for the final users. The most serious issue, however, was the lack of an official uninstaller which should be currently -- paradoxically -- one of the first priority of the MacPorts project, IMHO. There are some important changes coming with Leopard: it has already been announced the use of XAR as the new binary format (http://www.nabble.com/xar-in-Mac-OS-X-t2081148.html) as well as the support for "automatic Internet download" and "new receipt tools" (http://developer.apple.com/wwdc/sessions/index.html) Nothing more has been divulged outside the NDA but it is clear that much work will be required in order to interact with the new system receipt database and to implement some form of reference counting that Mac OS X unfortunately doesn't yet manage by itself.

Re: gnome-vfs fails to build on 10.3.9
by Jonathan Bowman 08 May '07

08 May '07

On January 23, Brett Warden wrote of a patch that might allow gnome-vfs to be built on Mac OS 10.3.9. Is there any news on this patch? Will it be added? I am having the same problem compiling gnome-vfs on darwin_7 (10.3.9). If it is not going to be fixed soon, I would love to have instructions on how to fix it, if anyone is willing to do so.
