This might be due to sandboxing used by MacPorts. See http://trac.macports.org/browser/trunk/base/src/port1.0/portsandbox.tcl?marks=93#L90 for the line that deals with /var/tmp. Note that the regex that allows writing matches "/var/tmp/" and everything below it, but not "/var/tmp". I'm not sure if that's actually the problem here, but that's certainly something worth trying. You can temporarily disable sandboxing in macports.conf using `sandbox_enable no' to see if that helps. -- Clemens Lang _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users
