Hi, I needed to run --- sudo chmod -R o+r /opt/local/libexec/macports/lib/tcllib1.15 --- to make stats submission work. Is the non-readability of /opt/local/libexec/macports/lib/tcllib1.15 intentional, or is it a bug? That certainly is a bug. The question is, how did it happen. Did you use the installer? Did you run selfupdate? I'm pretty sure we actually fixed the Makefiles to correctly set the permissions after the beta, so unless you had that folder created during beta when this was still broken, I don't think it could be caused by our current build scripts. But then again, maybe somebody should re-check. I'll see if I have some time this weekend to do that. -- Clemens Lang ___ macports-dev mailing list macports-dev@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev

Re: Call for Testers: MacPorts Statistics
Hi, I am here on Mavericks running port 2.3.0-RC1. Shall I file a ticket for that? It seems your tcl8.5 directory isn't readable by your user. Which user did you use to install it? Which umask was set while you installed it? What are the permissions of /opt/local/libexec/macports/lib/tcl8.5? I'm fairly confident the Tcl Makefiles get this right by installing using install -m$explicitMode but let's make sure that's really the case. -- Clemens Lang ___ macports-dev mailing list macports-dev@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev

You probably need to run trunk for access to POST, which isn’t available in a release yet.

Hi Clemens, I am seeing a page stating this: — The page you were looking for doesn't exist.

I guess one could rather state on this page that the port is replaced_by or simply non-existing?!

(re-sent to the list) The problem here is that the aqbanking Portfile violates lint: :) clemens@cSchlepptop:[…]/dports/devel/aqbanking$ port lint --- Verifying Portfile for aqbanking Error: Missing required variable: categories Warning: no license set --- 1 errors and 1 warnings found. That causes the categories property of the aqbanking port to be nil and thus doesn't match any path router in the webinterface, effectively causing the 404 you're seeing. I agree this fails in an unexpected way, but it's really the port that's to blame here. -- Clemens Lang ___ macports-dev mailing list macports-dev@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev

Call for Testers: MacPorts Statistics
Hello MacPorts Developers, I'd like to invite you to test the MacPorts statistics service that Derek Ingrouville wrote during GSoC 2011. I made some progress over the last few days and while I was running a copy of the server for quite a while now I never had time to look at the client to finish it. Luckily, Joshua was keeping a work-in-progress port version of the statistics client in his user directory and I found it almost complete. With some modifications and some server-side bugfixes, I'm pleased to announce that it works fine for me. Because statistics aren't any fun without data, I'd like to invite you to test the statistics service. To do that, you can install the `mpstats` port from my user directory [1] or use the shortcut (feel free to inspect the tarball before installing) port -yourflags install https://www.neverpanic.de/documents/mpstats.tar Note that the port uses `startupitem.autostart` in a way that only works with the most recent trunk [2]. If your MacPorts installation isn't compatible, the auto-loading will fail and you'll have to run `port load mpstats` manually. If you'd like to get your statistics data out there immediately, I'd also recommend to run `$prefix/libexec/mpstats submit` after you've installed the port. The webinterface [3] will update immediately. Please also test the web application extensively and fix any typos or bad wording you might encounter in SVN [4] – remember I'm not a native speaker. NOTE: The mpstats port from my user directory is currently configured to submit to my development installation of the statistics server at http://stats.macports.neverpanic.de/. We do not have an installation as MacOSForge at the moment.

Re: Call for Testers: MacPorts Statistics
Is there an easy way to convert a non-trunk installation of MacPorts into a trunk installation of it? The relevant guide sectionhttp://guide.macports.org/#installing.macports.subversion says: If you installed MacPorts using the package installer, skip this section. I don't exactly have room for multiple installations of MacPorts on my current drive... I also found two different HowTo guides on the Wiki, but I am not sure which one would be better to follow: https://trac.macports.org/wiki/howto/SyncingWithSVN and https://trac.macports.org/wiki/howto/RunningTrunk On Sat, Feb 8, 2014 at 2:46 PM, Joshua Root j...@macports.org wrote: On 2014-2-9 03:39 , Clemens Lang wrote: Note that the port uses `startupitem.autostart` in a way that only works with the most recent trunk [2].
