Hello all. I'm trying to install the latest Maven (which was cruelly taken away by Mavericks) via MacPorts. It appears "maven-devel" is the best option. Unfortunately, there seems to be a problem with selecting that port after install:
$ sudo port install maven-devel Password: ---> Computing dependencies for maven-devel ---> Dependencies to be installed: maven_select ---> Fetching archive for maven_select ---> Attempting to fetch maven_select-0.3_1.darwin_13.noarch.tbz2 from http://lil.fr.packages.macports.org/maven_select ---> Attempting to fetch maven_select-0.3_1.darwin_13.noarch.tbz2.rmd160 from http://lil.fr.packages.macports.org/maven_select ---> Installing maven_select @0.3_1 ---> Activating maven_select @0.3_1 ---> Cleaning maven_select ---> Fetching archive for maven-devel ---> Attempting to fetch maven-devel-3.1.1_0.darwin_13.noarch.tbz2 from http://lil.fr.packages.macports.org/maven-devel ---> Attempting to fetch maven-devel-3.1.1_0.darwin_13.noarch.tbz2.rmd160 from http://lil.fr.packages.macports.org/maven-devel ---> Installing maven-devel @3.1.1_0 ---> Activating maven-devel @3.1.1_0 To make maven 3.1.1 the default, please run sudo port select --set maven maven-devel ---> Cleaning maven-devel ---> Updating database of binaries: 100.0% ---> Scanning binaries for linking errors: 100.0% ---> No broken files found. $ sudo port select --set maven maven-devel Selecting 'maven-devel' for 'maven' failed: The specified version 'maven-devel' is not valid. $ port select --list maven Available versions for maven: maven3 none (active) $ sudo port select --set maven maven3 Selecting 'maven3' for 'maven' failed: could not create new link "/opt/local/bin/mvn": target "/opt/local/bin/mvn3" doesn't exist Any suggestions on how to resolve this? I would like to use Maven 3.1.1, so I do not want to install the maven3 port (which appears to be pegged to 3.0.X for compatibility reasons I guess?). Thanks! On a related note, figuring out which port to install to get the most recent maven is somewhat opaque. It would be nice if there was some way to document this kind of thing in MacPorts, rather than 15 minutes of Googling, reading Portfiles and old mailing list threads. -- Robert Brewer Postdoc in the Ubiquitous Computing and Interaction Group Computer Science Department, Aarhus University, Denmark *http://robertsbrewer.wordpress.com/ <http://robertsbrewer.wordpress.com/>*
