I posted a thread on here awhile ago, detailing problems with ClusterSSH and Leopard.
Hi Neil and others- I'm sorry I didn't see your message earlier because I've been chasing the same bug for a while. Neither of us mentioned ClusterSSH in our subject messages so we missed each other. My message was this: http://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/macports-users/2008-January/008107.htm... The problem with the cssh port as it exists is that the p5-tk port (currently without a maintainer) doesn't work. A simple script like this: use Tk; causes a bus error. I don't have the expertise to figure out why that is happening (and I've tried a bunch of things including back-revving to the 8.4.16 port of Tk) and haven't heard back from anyone who does. I tried asking the current Tk port maintainer (the very busy Markus) if he had any ideas but did not hear back. As a last resort, I just wrote the current Perl/ Tk maintainer last night but I haven't heard back from him either. Your recipe gets around this problem by building Perl/Tk using the version of Tk that ships with Leopard. I'm trying to avoid that if I can because it means you are dropping your own user installed stuff into the Apple provided Perl tree vs. installing it into the MacPorts Perl installation. I did something like this for Tiger but was hoping to avoid sullying the Apple stuff this time around. I'd really prefer to get a working p5-tk port if possible. As an aside, you asked about strace in your message. With the addition of Dtrace in Leopard (yay, Apple!), you can now get the same functionality. The easiest way to get this out of the box is to use the dtruss Dtrace script that ships with Leopard (just say "dtruss command", perhaps running under sudo). -- dNb
