FYI I was able to solve the problem I was having updating qt3 by doing the following:
uninstalling the active (outdated) installation of qt3 installing the up-to-date version of qt3 The original problem was related to file permissions?? I was unable to solve this problem any other way, like changing permissions on the files that could not be written to and or running selfupdate and port upgrade outdated --R On Wed, Jul 27, 2011 at 11:54, Marko Käning <mk-macpo...@techno.ms> wrote: > From what I see down there in your log I figure you didn't run the port > command with sudo. > > Did you try that? > > > On Jul 27, 2011, at 3:54 PM, Rodolfo Aramayo wrote: > >> Hi Marko, >> >> I am still unable to install qt3 >> >> No I did not see Takeshi Enomoto's reply to your enquiry >> >> Any ideas I could use? >> >> Thanks >> >> --Rodolfo >> >> On Sat, Jul 23, 2011 at 02:57, Marko Käning <mk-macpo...@techno.ms> wrote: >>> Did you see Takeshi Enomoto's reply to my thread "qt3 building failing with >>> Lion and Xcode 4 using MacPorts 2.0.0…" ? >>> >>> Since I don't have Lion I can't test it. >>> >>> Please try >>> >>> sudo port selfupdate >>> sudo port upgrade outdated >>> >>> and report back whether it works for you. >>> >>> On Jul 23, 2011, at 5:42 AM, Rodolfo Aramayo wrote: >>> >>>> People, >>>> >>>> After upgrading from Mac Ports base 1.9.2 to the latest Mac Ports base 2.0 >>>> and running the 'port upgrade outdated' I got the following error: >>>> >>>> Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command failed (see >>>> log for details) >>>> Log for qt3 is at: >>>> /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_x11_qt3/qt3/main.log >>>> Error: Unable to upgrade port: 1 >>>> To report a bug, see <http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets> >>>> >>>> last few libes of the log are: >>>> == >>>> :debug:patch chowned >>>> /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_x11_qt3/qt3/work/qt-x11-free-3.3.8/mkspecs/darwin-g++/qmake.conf >>>> to macports >>>> :debug:patch euid/egid changed to: 504/502 >>>> :debug:patch euid/egid changed to: 0/0 >>>> :debug:patch setting attributes on >>>> /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_x11_qt3/qt3/work/qt-x11-free-3.3.8/mkspecs/darwin-g++/qmake.conf >>>> :debug:patch euid/egid changed to: 504/502 >>>> :debug:patch euid/egid changed to: 0/0 >>>> :debug:patch chowned >>>> /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_x11_qt3/qt3/work/qt-x11-free-3.3.8/mkspecs/darwin-g++/qmake.conf >>>> to macports >>>> :debug:patch euid/egid changed to: 504/502 >>>> :debug:patch euid/egid changed to: 0/0 >>>> :debug:patch setting attributes on >>>> /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_x11_qt3/qt3/work/qt-x11-free-3.3.8/mkspecs/darwin-g++/qmake.conf >>>> :debug:patch euid/egid changed to: 504/502 >>>> :debug:patch Privilege de-escalation not attempted as not running as root. >>>> :debug:configure configure phase started at Fri Jul 22 22:35:13 CDT 2011 >>>> :notice:configure ---> Configuring qt3 >>>> :debug:configure Using compiler 'Mac OS X gcc 4.2' >>>> :debug:configure Executing org.macports.configure (qt3) >>>> :debug:configure Privilege de-escalation not attempted as not running as >>>> root. >>>> :debug:build build phase started at Fri Jul 22 22:35:13 CDT 2011 >>>> :notice:build ---> Building qt3 >>>> :debug:build Executing proc-pre-org.macports.build-build-0 >>>> :info:build ranlib: file: /opt/local/lib/libqassistantclient.a is not >>>> writable (Permission denied) >>>> :info:build shell command "ranlib >>>> /opt/local/lib/libqassistantclient.a" returned error 1 >>>> :error:build Target org.macports.build returned: shell command failed >>>> (see log for details) >>>> :debug:build Backtrace: shell command failed (see log for details) >>>> while executing >>>> "$pre $targetname" >>>> :info:build Warning: the following items did not execute (for qt3): >>>> org.macports.install org.macports.build org.macports.destroot >>>> :notice:build Log for qt3 is at: >>>> /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_x11_qt3/qt3/main.log >>>> == >>>> >>>> Is this related to the latest MacPorts base or to a problem with qt3??? >>>> >>>> Thanks >>>> >>>> --R >>>> _______________________________________________ >>>> macports-users mailing list >>>> macports-users@lists.macosforge.org >>>> http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users >>> >>> > > _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users
