Hi Klemens I am new to ports, I have completed the fixes you suggested and now am working on ensuring the tests complete. I take it the ports infrastructure prevents ports from writing to $HOME, and this where the error is coming from. To fix the problem do I need to configure the tests to write to, somewhere ? /tmp? instead? where is the preferred location? or am I miss understanding something? Cheers Adam
