Hi I'm having a few difficulties in installing tetex and in particular the port texinfo. I managed to get tetex running fine on my macbook via macports but I'm having difficulties in building it on my imac. When I try and install texinfo I get the following error message: ---> Building texinfo with target all Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command " cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_textproc_texinfo/work/texinfo-4.11" && make all " returned error 2 Command output: make all-recursive Making all in gnulib/lib ../../build-aux/install-sh -c -d sys make[2]: execvp: ../../build-aux/install-sh: Permission denied make[2]: *** [sys/stat.h] Error 127 make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make: *** [all] Error 2 Error: Status 1 encountered during processing. My imac has the following specs 1.83 GHz Intel Core Due, 512 mB 667 MHZ DDR2 SDRAM and I'm using a tcsh shell. Thanks for the help Glenn _________________________________________________________________ Celeb spotting – Play CelebMashup and win cool prizes https://www.celebmashup.com

I do not have such a problem. Could you try with the -v option and send me the output? Here I get: [...] ---> Building texinfo with target all make all-recursive Making all in gnulib/lib { echo '/* DO NOT EDIT!

And also, after you get the failure: grep 'install_sh ' `port dir texinfo`/work/texinfo-4.11/Makefile Here I have: install_sh = $(SHELL) /opt/local/var/macports/build/_Users_vinc17_wd_macosx_dports_textproc_texinfo/work/texinfo-4.11/build-aux/install-sh I think you get an incorrect install_sh definition. $(SHELL) is important as build-aux/install-sh doesn't have the executable bit set. -- Vincent Lefèvre <vincent@vinc17.org> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.org/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.org/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / Arenaire project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
