Hi, I cannot use rsync because of our firewall. How do I set things up so that I can have an svn repository of the dports files and use macports? I am using MacPorts 1.5 Ultimately, I would like to be able to 'svn up' to get the latest portfiles and then be able to use 'port install foo' as usual. I got things working somewhat. I downloaded the portfiles using svn co http://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/trunk/dports/ dports and then sym-linked dports to /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/ports I can now type port list and things work. Installing fails. For example, sudo port install ghostscript gives Error: Unable to execute port: invalid command name "destroot.violate_mtree" Any ideas? Thanks, Scott
