Thankyou for the advice. I tried installing 0.61 from a local portfile but ended up getting the same error message... ...so unless there is a way of bypassing dbus en-route to getting Gnome set up, I'll probably have to upgrade OS X. On 7 Sep 2006, at 21:49, Daniel Ericsson wrote:

I've seen problems with _getpeerid when trying software built for Tiger(10.4) on Panther(10.3). AFAICS getpeereid isn't available on Panther.
deric@roguewave:~> otool -Tv /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib | grep getpeereid getpeereid.So _getpeereid deric@roguewave:~> otool -Tv /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.3.9.sdk/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib | grep getpeereid
I don't know if it's possible to target getpeereid-less platforms in the dbus-build.
Any tips or advice on workarounds would be greatly appreciated!
dbus jumped from 0.61 to 0.92 on the last change to the Portfile[1].
It says 0.92 is API compatible with 0.62 so I'd try to make a local port for 0.62 or grab the Portfile as of r17753[2] for dbus 0.61.
