Ionut, thanks a million! It works. I had to restart indeed (first I tried without restarting and it failed with a connection refused error). Now it works just fine (in the meantime, I also recompiled dbus with X support, by changing the portfile locally. I don't know if that is required or not). I wonder if this should be part of the port file? It's definitely not obvious, and Googling the internet didn't reveal anything. > By the way, if you find another trustworthy merge tool please let know. I used Meld for a long time on Linux. Before that I was using Araxis Merge on Windows. They have a version for Mac OS, but I find it too expensive and meld is just as good. thanks again, you really made my day, iulian > Good luck, > Ionut > > > -- > http://www.pks.mpg.de/~george/ > > "UNIX is basically a simple operating system, but you have to be a genius to > understand the simplicity." > > _______________________________________________ > macports-users mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users > > -- « Je déteste la montagne, ça cache le paysage » Alphonse Allais _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users
