Yes, I think the receipt directories were removed entirely. I had something like this after doing all the uninstalls on these ports:
[ m...@xxx ~/src/kitware/VTK_build ]$ port installed | grep vtk vtk @5.2.1_0+darwin_9+examples+tclSys+testing vtk5 @5.2.0_0+darwin_9+examples+shared+tclSys+testing vtk5 @5.2.0_0+darwin_9+examples+tclSys+testing vtk52 @5.2.1_0+darwin_9+examples+tclSys+testing vtk54 @5.4.0_0+darwin_9+examples+tclSys+testing I don't recall the details on how I removed the receipts exactly. I do have two systems with very similar installs. On the system with untouched receipts, there are the following receipt directories: [ m...@xxx ~/src/kitware/VTK_build ]$ ls /opt/local/var/macports/receipts/vtk* /opt/local/var/macports/receipts/vtk: 5.2.1_0+darwin_9+examples+tclSys+testing/ /opt/local/var/macports/receipts/vtk5: 5.2.0_0+darwin_9+examples+shared+tclSys+testing/ 5.2.0_0+darwin_9+examples+tclSys+testing/ /opt/local/var/macports/receipts/vtk52: 5.2.1_0+darwin_9+examples+tclSys+testing/ /opt/local/var/macports/receipts/vtk54: 5.4.0_0+darwin_9+examples+tclSys+testing/ On the system where receipt files were removed, all those directories are missing. So it might have been sudo rm -rf /opt/local/var/macports/receipts/vtk* On Fri, Apr 17, 2009 at 12:16 PM, Joshua Root <[email protected]> wrote: > Darren Weber wrote: > > > > I made the stupid mistake of removing some registry (ie, receipt) files, > > so now I get > > > > [ m...@xxx ~/ports ]$ port installed > > Error: port installed failed: list must have an even number of elements > > No ports are installed. > > > > I ran a few port uninstall commands and then checked that the ports were > > not installed, but > > > > port installed | grep <portname> > > > > continued to indicate that the ports were installed (see my other list > > post on that topic). > > Did you also delete the receipt's enclosing directories? > > - Josh >
