Ouch, yes, my disastrous typo in the repository name, sorry. (The first time I tried, without using "sudo su -“, I had copied the “echo rsync” command directly from the https://www.openmodelica.org/download/download-mac <https://www.openmodelica.org/download/download-mac> instructions. But the second time, using "sudo su -“ I just typed the command, clearly a mistake.
Now the sync with that repository has completed successfully, I’m watching the long installation process proceed. (Using openmodelica will be an adventure, as I intend to use it as a source of models I can then import into Wolfram Mathematica and simulate there — without having to acquire the expensive Wolfram SystemModeler.) > On 7 Apr2018, at 2:57 PM, Ryan Schmidt <ryandes...@macports.org> wrote: > > On Apr 7, 2018, at 13:56, Murray Eisenberg wrote: > >> On 7 Apr2018, at 2:51 PM, Ryan Schmidt wrote: >> >>> On Apr 7, 2018, at 13:50, Murray Eisenberg wrote: >>> >>>> What’s happening now is befuddling to me.
