Hi:

A (potential) user is trying to help with testing a portfile I've developed, mythtv-core.25, but we're having a problem. Originally, I've emailed him the Portfile and related support files. He is running Lion Server with the latest MacPorts installed. He was able to install qt4-mac +mysql (a dependency). When he attempts to install Myth, all of Myth's dependencies ARE installed but then it aborts with the following error:

Earlier, he was connecting to this machine via Apple Remote Desktop and I thought perhaps that was creating the permissions problem. He is now working directly on the box so I think that was a red herring.

Could someone help us figure out was is going wrong?

Thanks,

Craig
