Oops, just realized that this error was due to a bug in the Makefile for the package. make install didn't actually install any files. cheers Mike On Oct 13, 2006, at 6:48 AM, Michael Thon wrote:
I'm trying to write a portfile for a new package but I get an error during the activate step. There's probably a bug in my portfile but I cant find it. Can anyone have a quick look at this? Here is the output of 'sudo port install MUMmer' and at the end of the email is my Portfile. Many thanks.

--------Portfile-------- # $Id: $ PortSystem 1.0 name MUMmer version 3.19 revision 0 distfiles ${name}${version}.tar.gz description MUMmer is a system for rapidly aligning entire genomes, whether in \ complete or draft form. long_description \ MUMmer is a system for rapidly aligning entire genomes, whether in complete or draft \ form. For example, MUMmer 3.0 can find all 20-basepair or longer exact matches between \ a pair of 5-megabase genomes in 13.7 seconds, using 78 MB of memory, on a 2.4 GHz Linux \ desktop computer. MUMmer can also align incomplete genomes. it handles the 100s or 1000s \ of contigs from a shotgun \ sequencing project with ease, and will align them to another set of contigs or a genome \ using the NUCmer program included with the system. If the species are too divergent for \ DNA sequence alignment to detect similarity, then the PROmer program can generate \ alignments based upon the six-frame translations of both input sequences.
