Sorry, I really don't know why the frustration got to me - I know better since I work in the IT field. I apologize to anyone I may have irritated. I do understand the maintainers have a lot on their plates, and also that kdenlive is to be released with a new version. I look forward to that and hope it may prove to get my foot in the door on this platform.
I just tried your suggestion about changing the line about the PortGroup, did a clean, selfupdate, upgrade outdated, and install kdenlive, but no luck. Still the same error. I will keep monitoring and trying. Thanks. ________________________________ From: Chris Jones <[email protected]> To: Mark Szymanski <[email protected]> Cc: [email protected] Sent: Mon, November 1, 2010 1:18:04 PM Subject: Re: kdkenlive fails to configure Hi, The KDE4/QT4 ports are under going what a lot of upheaval at the moment, to move to KDE 4.5.X and QT 4.7.X. kdenlive just hasn't been updated yet to adapt. You've just tried at a bad moment.... No need for the rant below, it doesn't help. Those maintaining the kde4 ports (I'm not one) are doing a great job really. In a lot of cases the changes required are just to change the line PortGroup kde4 1.0 in the Portfile to PortGroup kde4 1.1 I suggest you give it a go... cheers Chris On 1 Nov 2010, at 3:18pm, Mark Szymanski wrote: Does anyone have an answer to why "Qt qmake not found!" error is preventing the kdenlive install on Mac OS X 10.5.8.
