I need to where to set proxy options in Darwinports? MY DP installation does not work through proxy server. I know the direct connections do work. Here is the output. ******************* mbi067150:/DarwinPorts-1.3.2 jthrppel$ sudo port install wget ---> Fetching libiconv ---> Attempting to fetch libiconv-1.10.tar.gz from ftp:// ftp.gnu.org/gnu/libiconv ---> Attempting to fetch libiconv-1.10.tar.gz from ftp:// ftp.uu.net/archive/systems/gnu/libiconv ---> Attempting to fetch libiconv-1.10.tar.gz from ftp:// ftp.de.uu.net/pub/gnu/libiconv ---> Attempting to fetch libiconv-1.10.tar.gz from ftp:// ftp.funet.fi/pub/gnu/prep/libiconv ---> Attempting to fetch libiconv-1.10.tar.gz from ftp:// ftp.leo.org/pub/comp/os/unix/gnu/libiconv ---> Attempting to fetch libiconv-1.10.tar.gz from ftp:// ftp.digex.net/pub/gnu/libiconv ---> Attempting to fetch libiconv-1.10.tar.gz from ftp:// ftp.wustl.edu/mirrors/gnu/libiconv ---> Attempting to fetch libiconv-1.10.tar.gz from ftp:// ftp.kddlabs.co.jp/pub/gnu/libiconv ---> Attempting to fetch libiconv-1.10.tar.gz from ftp:// ftp.dti.ad.jp/pub/GNU/libiconv ---> Attempting to fetch libiconv-1.10.tar.gz from ftp:// ftp.mirror.ac.uk/sites/ftp.gnu.org/gnu/libiconv ---> Attempting to fetch libiconv-1.10.tar.gz from ftp:// sunsite.org.uk/Mirrors/ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/libiconv ---> Attempting to fetch libiconv-1.10.tar.gz from ftp:// ftp.informatik.hu-berlin.de/pub/gnu/libiconv ---> Attempting to fetch libiconv-1.10.tar.gz from ftp:// ftp.rediris.es/mirror/gnu/libiconv ---> Attempting to fetch libiconv-1.10.tar.gz from ftp:// ftp.lip6.fr/pub/gnu/libiconv ---> Attempting to fetch libiconv-1.10.tar.gz from ftp:// ftp.chg.ru/pub/gnu/libiconv ---> Attempting to fetch libiconv-1.10.tar.gz from http:// distfiles-od.opendarwin.org/libiconv ---> Attempting to fetch libiconv-1.10.tar.gz from http:// distfiles-msn.opendarwin.org/libiconv ---> Attempting to fetch libiconv-1.10.tar.gz from http:// distfiles-bay13.opendarwin.org/libiconv ---> Attempting to fetch libiconv-1.10.tar.gz from http:// distfiles-od.opendarwin.org/ ---> Attempting to fetch libiconv-1.10.tar.gz from http:// distfiles-msn.opendarwin.org/ ---> Attempting to fetch libiconv-1.10.tar.gz from http:// distfiles-bay13.opendarwin.org/ Error: Target com.apple.fetch returned: fetch failed Error: The following dependencies failed to build: gettext libiconv openssl zlib Error: Status 1 encountered during processing. ****************************** I have 10.4.7 running DP 1.3.2 installed from source, selfupdate is working through the rsync port.
