Please run "which python", "ls -l /opt/local/bin/python" and "port select --show python" to verify that you have properly enabled the default python. Then also check "port installed root5" to verify that the active variant of root has python support enabled. > I have tried to uninstall root5 on the second mac, to see if by re-installing > from scratch solves the problem, but I have the following error: > > sudo port uninstall root5 > ---> The following versions of root5 are currently installed: > ---> root5 > @5.34.18_0+cocoa+gcc48+graphviz+gsl+minuit2+opengl+python27+roofit+soversion+ssl+tmva+xml > (active) > ---> root5 > @5.34.18_0+cocoa+gcc48+graphviz+gsl+minuit2+opengl+roofit+soversion+ssl+tmva+xml > Error: port uninstall failed: Registry error: Please specify the full version > as recorded in the port registry. > > If anyone has any idea of what I'm doing wrong (or what could be wrong), I > would be really grateful! When you have multiple variants or versions installed, you need to use sudo port uninstall root5@5.34.18_0+cocoa+gcc48+graphviz+gsl+minuit2+opengl+roofit+soversion+ssl+tmva+xml to specify which version you want to uninstall. But you can just as well use sudo port deactivate root5 to just remove all files from path etc. Then you can activate the same version/variants later. Mojca PS: It is or at least was true that ROOT installation notes instructed users to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Or to source a file that would set it for you. I remember seeing binaries or libraries that pointed to libraries without full path as is usual on Mac. I think that the issues improved considerably with time (but I didn't check documentation) and MacPorts certainly doesn't (or at least shouldn't) need any of that. (Sadly Geant4 still needs a bunch of environmental variables for example, else it crashes.) PPS: You can also use "sudo port select --set root root5". (I also find it weird that root-config5 has that name; root5-config would be "more natural".) _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users
