Hello, I've had some success using the demo Mapnik files on my PC, and want to get serious on my portable Mac (v10.4). However I'm getting errors during the install process. Here's a step by step of what I did and where it went wrong. I appreciate any guidance in advance. :)
Step 1: Install Xcode I already did this a while back and left it alone after downloading the latest. It seems that the latest only works in 10.6, and the Xcode.mpkg file would not run on my machine? Step 2: Install Macports Worked great Step 3: Choose your Route, then begin… I chose Route A. Route A (OK):$ sudo port selfupdate (OK):$ sudo port install python26 python_select (OK):$ sudo python_select python26 (FAIL):$ sudo port install boost +python26 icu libpng jpeg libgeotiff libxml2 freetype I ran the command with -d flag to get the following: sudo port install -d boost +python26 icu libpng jpeg libgeotiff libxml2 freetype ---> Computing dependencies for boost ---> Building boost Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command " cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_devel_boost/work/boost_1_41_0" && bjam -j2 -d2 --layout=tagged --debug-configuration --ignore-site-config --user-config=user-config.jam --without-mpi -sBZIP2_INCLUDE=/opt/local/include -sBZIP2_LIBPATH=/opt/local/lib -sZLIB_INCLUDE=/opt/local/include -sZLIB_LIBPATH=/opt/local/lib " returned error 1 Command output: /var/tmp//ccUG9m0H.s:62382:Complex expression.
