Hello, I just installed macPorts on a clean 10.5 system. I installed the dmg for leopard. All I have done so far is add the opt path and man path
to .bashrc, then I ran sudo port -d selfupdate.

I ran sudo port install mrtg and it took too long, so I added in the -d flag, and I see literally, hundreds of thousands of lines of text going by
which looks like to be for xfree86.

X11 is a requirement for a number of ports, and having a full install
includes both the X11User package (which I believe is now installed by
default in 10.5) and the X11SDK, which comes with Xcode. Information on
these can be found in the guide:

<http://guide.macports.org/#installing>

I take it I must have no installed x11, so ports is trying to get something equivalent in this case? I will drop the CD in and install it when I get a chance to get to the machine. In that case, will ports not bother with the xfree86 parts?

Just curious, thanks.

Also, any idea when a mrtg update may be coming out, the one in ports is a
tad bit outdated, but I am sure it will work more than fine.

Best thing here is to file a ticket:

<http://trac.macports.org/newticket>

since I don't already see one for upgrading mrtg.


Cool, thanks, I will do do.
