Oh. Your readline port is very out of date. Probably all your other ports are too. You need to get into the habit of running "sudo port sync" before you begin installing ports on a given day, to pull the new port definitions from our server. readline is currently at version 5.2.001, not 5.0.005. Sync, then try installing readline again. Presumably this problem has already been fixed. Also run "port outdated" to see what other ports you may need to update now. Also do "sudo port selfupdate" occasionally to make sure you have the latest version of MacPorts base.

Ok, i will try this when i am at home today evening. I synced about 2 weeks ago and made a selfupdate about 2 weeks ago. Update Frequency seems to be very high :)

Oh. I'm sorry. I misread. You're not installing readline, you're installing readline-5. readline was updated to 5.2.001 way back on 2007-03-19, but readline-5 is still at 5.0.005.

Why are you installing readline-5 instead of readline? It looks like the only port that depends on readline-5 is ghc, and that only on Mac OS X 10.3.x. But you said you're running 10.4.10. Are you trying to install ghc?

No i am trying to install subversion and readline is a dependency of it. I don't know if i need 5.2, the only thig i did is :

sudo port install readline

I don't really care which version of readline i get. But thats all automatic by MacPorts.

Ah yes, subversion depends on apr-util, which depends on sqlite3, which depends on readline. It does not depend on readline-5, and readline-5 would not satisfy the readline dependency. So we're back to my previous suggestions regarding potential changes to the readline port you could try: http://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/macports-users/2007-August/ 005009.html
