How do I force port to compile a port when I have a local port file? If I say "port build git", it will build with my local port file, and local patches.
Unfortunately, I cannot figure out how to make it install this. bash-3.2# port clean git ---> Cleaning git bash-3.2# port install git ---> Computing dependencies for git ---> Activating git @2.17.1_0+credential_osxkeychain+doc+pcre+perl5_26 Error: Failed to activate git: Image error: /opt/local/bin/git already exists and does not belong to a registered port. Unable to activate port git. Use 'port -f activate git' to force the activation. bash-3.2# port -s install git ---> Computing dependencies for git ---> Activating git @2.17.1_0+credential_osxkeychain+doc+pcre+perl5_26 Error: Failed to activate git: Image error: /opt/local/bin/git already exists and does not belong to a registered port. Unable to activate port git. Use 'port -f activate git' to force the activation. Note that it goes directly from computing dependencies to activating. It skips the build phase. Even when I use an "-s" flag, whether before or after the install verb. (I actually know why it thinks that git already exists and is not a registered port. I will use "-f" once I can get it to compile.) --- Entertaining minecraft videos http://YouTube.com/keybounce
