MacPorts has not yet been updated to properly handle subdirectories of Subversion 1.7+ working copies. In Subversion 1.6.x and earlier, every directory in a working copy contained a directory called ".svn" where Subversion stored metadata. Before allowing a directory to be used as a sync directory, MacPorts checks whether the directory contains a ".svn" directory: https://trac.macports.org/browser/trunk/base/src/macports1.0/macports.tcl?rev=90368#L2190 As of Subversion 1.7, only the root directory of the working copy contains a ".svn" directory, and since trunk is the root of your working copy, but you're pointing MacPorts at the dports subdirectory of that, it won't work. I myself have not yet upgraded to Subversion 1.7 so I have not run into this yet. But you should be able to work around it by checking out a separate working copy of dports and pointing your sources.conf at that. It doesn't have to be in /opt/local/var/macports/sources if you don't want it to; personally, I have mine in $HOME/macports/dports. _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-dev
