Intel Mac and Darwinports
Hello all! I hope this subject has not been addressed. I have a new Intel Mac and am trying to install Darwinports on it. The software installs but when I execute the "port selfupdate" command I receive the following message: daniel$ port selfupdate can't find package Pextlib 1.0 while executing "package_native require Pextlib 1.0" ("eval" body line 1) invoked from within "eval package_native $args" (procedure "package" line 14) invoked from within "package require Pextlib 1.0" (procedure "dportinit" line 311) invoked from within "dportinit ui_options global_options global_variations" Error: /opt/local/bin/port: Failed to initialize ports system, can't find package Pextlib 1.0 Any suggestions for a fix? Thanks, Daniel

I just installed 1.3.2 on an intel mini a couple of days ago and didn't have any issues. Have you loaded the latest developer tools? That is the only thing required as far as I know besides running the darwin ports installer package from the .dmg file. Oh, I did also check my .profile as described on the installation page, but I don't think it's necessary unless you want to specify an editor or use X11 apps. The path to the command line apps gets put in by the installer. HTH, Kevin

Have you installed the Aqua (non-MacPorts) version of Tcl/Tk? If so, that's a problem; see the end of this bug report: http://trac.macports.org/projects/macports/ticket/10682
