Hi,
Thanks for this information but I am afraid I have to ask some more
questions.
How do I search the issue tracker? Each time I try and follow the link
to any error reporting, it asks for a username and password that I
have not received.
Thanks,
Rob

I have upgraded to Leopard and many builds seems to fail. I cannot

attempt to update an existing MacPorts tree, and there seems to be
some consistent havoc about Leopard.
I also was not able to usefully search the archived email of this
list--is there something I am missing?
Leopard's linker is a little different and causes some ports to
fail. Also, Leopard is "fully UNIX-compliant"; to do that, Apple had
to change some things, which breaks some software.
For each port you find that fails to install, please search the
issue tracker to see if it has already been reported. If it has,
check the ticket to see if there's a patch. If there is, try it out.
If it works for you, say so in the ticket so we'll know we can
commit the patch. If there's no patch but a workaround, that might
let you bypass the problem as well. If there's no ticket filed,
please file one.
