Ah.

Thank you, Dan. I'm a bit of a command-line newbie, unfortunately...

I was following the instructions at http://guide.macports.org/ (section 3.1.14), which doesn't mention appending "sudo" at all.

Cheers.

Hi all,

I'm still having trouble installing Gnumeric, due to consistent crashes from python, but I attempted to do a "port upgrade outdated", just in case this would fix it.

Now I'm getting a whole bunch of permission errors. e.g.
Error: Unable to upgrade port: can't create directory "/opt/local/ var/macports/build/ _opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_deve l_dbus": permission denied Error: Unable to upgrade port: can't create directory "/opt/local/ var/macports/build/ _opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_math _fftw-3": permission denied

Probably something very simple?


With nothing better to suggest than the obvious...

Did you try "sudo port upgrade outdated" ?

Dan
