etpan fails with errors
by Malcolm Fitzgerald 18 Jul '07

18 Jul '07

A few weeks ago I built etpan on 10.3 w/o errors. Now in 10.4, with the latest MacPorts and Xcode (clean download and install of both), I get errors ---> Building etpan with target all Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command " cd "/opt/ local/var/macports/build/ _opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_mail_et pan/work/etpan-ng-0.6" && make all " returned error 2 Command output: Making all in src Making all in libversit make[2]: Nothing to be done for `all'. gcc -I.. -Ilibversit -I/opt/local/include -D_REENTRANT -I/opt/local/ include -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -O2 -I/opt/local/include -D_REENTRANT -I/opt/ local/include -c -o etpan-thread-manager.o etpan-thread-manager.c etpan-thread-manager.c: In function 'get_message_mime_copy': etpan-thread-manager.c:2879: warning: passing argument 3 of 'mailprivacy_get_mime' makes integer from pointer without a cast etpan-thread-manager.c:2879: warning: passing argument 4 of 'mailprivacy_get_mime' makes pointer from integer without a cast etpan-thread-manager.c:2879: warning: passing argument 5 of 'mailprivacy_get_mime' makes integer from pointer without a cast etpan-thread-manager.c:2879: error: too few arguments to function 'mailprivacy_get_mime' make[1]: *** [etpan-thread-manager.o] Error 1 make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.

portslocation
by David Robertson 18 Jul '07

18 Jul '07

Hello, I am a newbie to the Mac. I am trying to use the MacPorts system, version 1.5. I saw another post to this list stating that /opt/local/bin/portslocation has never existed. It does not exist on my system. I'm trying to install the gaim port. The instructions on http://gaim.darwinports.com/ say to cd to the aforementioned directory. The date on that page is July 18, 2007. I try "port install gaim", ignoring the directory for the moment, and the port system cannot find it. If I do a Google search for /opt/local/bin/portslocation, I get 27,800 hits. At least for the first several pages, it's all Mac related. Should portslocation exist or not. If not, is there some additional configuration I need to do for MacPorts for it to be able to find gaim. Thanks, -David Robertson -Berkeley Lab

A newbie question
by Jan Erik Moströ m 18 Jul '07

18 Jul '07

I've just installed port and have installed apache2. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work when I try to connect to it (127.0.0.1 gives a "can't connect" message). I think it's running since I have a process: /opt/local/bin/daemondo --label=apache2 --start-cmd /opt/local/et........ And I can't really figure out where the config files etc are for the installation (I'm used to a standard linux installation), etc. So my question is: where do I find documentation of the different ports, for example where conf files are stored? -- Jan Erik Moström, www.mostrom.pp.se

Trouble using macports "port"
by Forrest Aldrich 18 Jul '07

18 Jul '07

I'm on a Powerbook G4 with an updated OS 10.x. I just installed MacPorts today; when I go to try and install gcc, see what happens: root# port install gcc42 ---> Configuring gmp Error: Target org.macports.configure returned: configure failure: shell command " cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_devel_gmp/work/gmp-4.2.1" && ./configure --prefix=/opt/local --infodir=/opt/local/share/info --enable-shared --enable-cxx " returned error 1 Command output: checking build system type... powerpc-apple-darwin8.10.0 checking host system type... powerpc-apple-darwin8.10.0 checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking for gawk... no checking for mawk... no checking for nawk... no checking for awk... awk checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... no checking whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles... no checking ABI=32 checking compiler gcc -O2 -force_cpusubtype_ALL -I/opt/local/include... no checking compiler cc -O2 -force_cpusubtype_ALL -I/opt/local/include... no configure: error: could not find a working compiler, see config.log for details Error: The following dependencies failed to build: gmp libiconv gperf mpfr Error: Status 1 encountered during processing. Uh, okay - there is no working compiler, because I was trying to install it to begin with ;-) Okay, let's try a selfupdate: forrest-aldrichs-powerbook-g4-17:~ root# port selfupdate MacPorts base version 1.5 installed Downloaded MacPorts base version 1.5 The MacPorts installation is not outdated and so was not updated selfupdate done! Good. All is well there. Let's check to see that the info command returns the correct result: forrest-aldrichs-powerbook-g4-17:~ root# port info gcc42 gcc42 4.2.0, lang/gcc42 (Variants: universal, darwin_8, odcctools) http://gcc.gnu.org/ The GNU compiler collection, including front ends for C, C++, Objective-C, Objective-C++, Java and Fortran95. Library Dependencies: gmp, mpfr, libiconv Platforms: darwin Maintainers: mww(a)macports.org Looks good. So, can someone explain what I may have done wrong here. Thanks, Forrest

Hello, when I try to install cairo, I have the following error message: checking for X_CFLAGS... checking for X_LIBS... checking for X... no configure: error: X is required, but it was either disabled or not found. After a re-installation, it's the first port I install. Do you know what is X, and where find it? thank you, lolveley.

Old port versions?
by Denis Bueno 18 Jul '07

18 Jul '07

Hi all, I've just now run into the situation where some code I'd like to compile (Cash, a scripting language, not available through macports) requires an older version of an installed package (ocaml, specifically it requires 3.09; 3.10 is current). It looks like it is normal to delete Portfiles for old versions of software (I don't see ocaml 3.09 anywhere). What is the reason for this? Sometimes the ability to install old versions of software is useful, and it seems like *extra* work to delete old Portfile versions. Is there a way for me to recover the ocaml 3.09 Portfile so I can install it alongside 3.10 (where alongside means, of course, only one is active at once). Thanks. -Denis

Registry knots
by David Liontooth 18 Jul '07

18 Jul '07

I modified a portfile by adding a tilde to the port name: transcode-1.1.0~cvs20070718 macports built the port, but got confused during the installation, so that now I get the cheerful $ port installed Error: port installed failed: Registry error: transcode @cvs20070718_0+a52dec+faac+freetype+imagemagick+libdv+libogg+libsdl+libtheora+libvorbis+libxml2+x264+xvid not registered as installed. No ports are installed. As you can see, it's truncated after the tilde, and then gone into knots. How can I untangle this? It would not be a disaster to start afresh, but if there's a simple solution let me know. Dave
