I've been trying to install GnuCash all day on an iMac and keep getting errors about xmlto not being fetchable. I tried installing just xmlto and got the same error. Is this a known problem? Todd

I don't see an issue filed in the issue tracker. But it looks like the xmlto web site is offline at this time. If you can find the distfile (xmlto-0.0.18.tar.bz2) elsewhere (try a Google search) you can manually download it and put it in /opt/local/var/macports/ distfiles/xmlto and try again. Hopefully the xmlto web site will be up again soon.
For those who have the same problem, I found a compatible mirror of the xmlto archive at: ftp://ftp6.ua.freebsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/distfiles/xmlto-0.0.18.tar.bz2 I did as Ryan said and it worked fine. Todd On Dec 9, 2007 2:17 AM, Ryan Schmidt <ryandesign@macports.org> wrote:

Thanks for finding that mirror, Todd. I added that as a backup download location in the portfile (in r31831). Should show up if you "sudo port selfupdate" in 30 minutes.
