IIRC, O_CLOEXEC was added to OS X in 10.7. Please report the problem to the developers of dbus so that they can provide a workaround for earlier systems that don’t have it. I recently had to do that for glib2 as well and they were quick to add that support. > Also, I get a warning > >> Warning: You have requested an obsolete variant >> Warning: Installation of startup items are now determined by >> /opt/local/etc/macports/macports.conf >> Warning: See https://guide.macports.org/#reference.startupitems > > The startupitems variable in my macports.conf is left to the default, and the > installed variant (which is almost certainly an automatically installed > variant) is [email protected]_0+no_root+startupitem+universal .

In r118513 (committed today) the startupitem and no_startupitem variants were retired in favor of basing the installation of the startupitem on your macports.conf settings. The error message you saw is telling you that you requested this obsolete variant, and is explaining to you how the port will decide whether to install a startupitem from now on. Reinstall the port without the obsolete variants. _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users
