Rainer, I have a similar problem. Can you identify a bug opened in trac on this upgrade/symlink issue? Perhaps a key phrase (but Google is unhelpful): > configure: error: no configure script found in vendor/tcl/unix Regarding your suggestion: Edit your /opt/local/etc/macports.conf Assuming you meant /opt/local/etc/macports/macports.conf, mine says: > #rsync_dir release/tarballs/base.tar I uncommented the line so I could mess around with this setting and it looks like this value might be wrong for some users. Based on https://trac.macports.org/wiki/Mirrors#MacPortsSource only the US and UK still use that directory structure, and for everyone not using those mirrors, we'd need: rsync_dir macports/release/tarballs/base.tar or similar. I have tried to pursue this route, changing rsync_ and rsync_dir to match several mirrors, and it has not fixed the vendor/tcl/unix problem. Any suggestions welcome, including "Open a ticket" or "Add to ticket X." I have looked at ticket #53414; the problem description is identical but I have tried the solution offered, commenting out the relevant settings to use defaults, and this does not change anything for me. tai viinikka -- [email protected] :::: East Pole Productions
