Well, I ran "sudo port upgrade outdated" and *did* keep a record of all the instructions.
I followed the instructions for d-bus which were: # A startup item has been generated that will aid in # starting dbus with launchd. It is disabled # by default. Execute the following command to start it, # and to cause it to launch at startup: # # sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.dbus.plist I also had issues with gtk2, gwenhywfar3, and aqbanking3 (although either of the first two might be associated with non-gnucash programs?). For all of these, I deactivated the port mentioned in the error message, then installed the new port. For example, I got the error "Error: Activating aqbanking3 3.7.1_0 failed: Image error: /opt/local/bin/aqbanking-config is being used by the active aqbanking port. Please deactivate this port first, or use the -f flag to force the activation." I then ran "sudo port deactivate aqbanking" then "sudo port install aqbanking3." I don't think the ports are considered "installed" until you install them fully. i.e. running "port outdated" will only say you are up to date after you manually deactivate/install the ports. Hence, I think the problem is unrelated to these installation "difficulties." Cheers. On 4/10/2008, at 6:44 PM, A.
