/opt/local/bin/su and messed up macports
by John Lauck 03 May '07

03 May '07

I think I messed up my macports installation. Is there a subversion version 1.4.3_0 and 1.4.3_1 ? From what I can tell it's as if I installed two identical versions of several packages. Is that even possible? Do these two versions of svn exist in the MacPorts repository? Also, I can't remember what package installs /opt/local/bin/su, but is it really required? I traced it up to some gtk+vfs package. The dependents list probably goes higher. (I can verify these when I get back to my Apple.) How does that su command work in this case? I noticed the file because it took over Apple's `su` in /usr/bin since my PATH includes macports /opt directories before the default OS X /usr/bin etc. I'm assuming the macports `su` doesn't have access to the OS X users because when I typed `su -` it never lets me in (password always incorrect). I moved the macports `su` aside to another file so I could keep the rest of my PATH info the same. Has anyone had this experience? If anyone can enlighten me on these issues that would be great.

Bittorrent
by Eric Donkersloot 03 May '07

Hi everybody, Is there any way to install bittorrent without the necessity to install Xfree86 or Apple's X11 ? I never understood why it needs that dependency. Met vriendelijke groet / Kind regards, Eric -- Eric Donkersloot Amsterdam, The Netherlands eric.donkersloot(a)gmail.com

erroneous text-editing over sshfs on Mac OS X
by Jochen Küpper 03 May '07

03 May '07

Hi Everyone, sorry for sending this to such a number of lists, but I really do not know where exactly this problem belongs. I am sending this to the MacPorts list again in order to allow responses from other lists to send replies there as well. I am using MacPorts' fuse + sshfs to mount several remote directories from various Linux servers; most of them running OpenSSH 3.8. When I edit textfiles (typically C++ or python source code) on the sshfs-volumes and delete some bytes somewhere in the file, the file on the server sometimes has spurious characters at the end of the file, often a colon (":"), for example. I am using Aquamacs for the editing. Is this a know issue? Is this an issue of MacPorts, FUSE (MacFUSE ?), sshfs? Where else should I ask if these are not the appropriate mailing lists? Details: Mac OS X 10.4.9 on PPC/G4 FUSE library version: 2.6.3 MacFUSE version 0.2.5 using FUSE kernel interface version 7.8 SSHFS version 1.7 (MacFUSE, 8, Apr 24 2007, 10:54:09) GNU Emacs 22.0.50.1 (powerpc-apple-darwin7.9.0) of 2006-06-27 on rodrigues.inf.ed.ac.uk - Aquamacs Distribution 0.9.9d Greetings, Jochen -- Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit http://www.Jochen- Kuepper.de Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité GnuPG key: CC1B0B4D Sex, drugs and rock-n-roll

In that light I was wondering, whether I am really the only one seeing this? Could it be an issue of MacPorts, due to the mixing of MacFUSE AND FUSE-sshfs, or otherwise?

Macports installs "offline"
by Ron 02 May '07

02 May '07

On the old Darwinports I read somewhere how to do "port install app" offline by simply downloading the "rpm" manually and putting it somewhere where the "rsync" service expected it. But I forgot exactly the details. My existing network at work has "rsync" service to the Internet blocked for some reason. Does any one recall how to do this? It wasn't that hard, I just forgot. I also have several OSX boxes that CANNOT be on the net that still need updating. Thanks Ron

port outdated out of date ?
by Erwan David 02 May '07

02 May '07

Doing a port -v sync, I knew thare had been some update on the mutt-devel port. However port outdated did not show any change, mutt still being in version 1.5.14 Looking at the portfile it was version 1.5.15, so I upgraded it. It seems the PortIndex file was not up to date, is there a way to update it client side ? -- Erwan

[PROPOSAL] Getting the badging to work correctly!
by Ringo De Smet 01 May '07

01 May '07

Hello SCPlugin users & developers, First of all, I send this only to the user mailing list as I expect that all the developers are subscribed too! Second, you all know that we (the developers) have a hard time getting the icon badging to work properly and consistently. Since I am stuck at home due to the recovery from a broken arm, I took some time to investigate the problem. I would like to inform you that I think I found a decent solution to resolve the issue once and for all, but it requires a fundamental change: all versioned files are displayed in a separate file system, mounted as a separate disk in the Finder. How can we implement this? Read all about it in the proposal that I wrote up: http://www.celaeno.be/scplugin/index.html Please tell me what you think of this proposal! I can stand some criticism, so if you think this is complete rubbish, I want to hear it. :-) Ringo ___________________________________________________________ Yahoo! Answers - Got a question?
