Managing multiple TeXLive installations
I am struggling with two different installations of TeXLive. One is a 2013 version from TUG which was a binary installed mostly into /usr/local/texlive but with GUI apps in /Applications/TeX/. The other is MacPorts 2015 version... $ port installed *texlive* The following ports are currently installed: texlive-basic @30847_0+doc texlive-basic @34245_0+doc texlive-basic @37485_0+doc (active) texlive-bin @2013_5+x11 texlive-bin @2014_1+x11 texlive-bin @2014_9+x11 texlive-bin @2015_8+x11 (active) texlive-common @2013_0 texlive-common @2014_0 texlive-common @2015_0 (active) texlive-fonts-recommended @36916_0+doc (active) texlive-latex @30738_0+doc texlive-latex @34192_0+doc texlive-latex @37361_0+doc (active) I want to simplify and save space and reduce the possibility of conflicts. (My use is mostly through LyX--not the MacPorts version but typically a dev version from lyx.org, and I am currently helping to chase down some LyX-TeX problems.) Since the MacPorts TeXLive version is here to stay as apparently it is needed by some other port, the reasonable thing to do would seem to be to get rid of the 2013 TUG version by trashing stuff. However, the 2013 TUG version installed the very nice collection of GUI apps in /Applications/TeX which I would like to use especially BibDesk. When I look in /Applications/MacPorts there are no corresponding programs. Can I delete /usr/local/texlive/2013 and keep the GUI apps in /Applications/TeX and if so, how would I keep the GUIs updated? Or is there a way to get the GUI apps to be installed by MacPorts, presumably into /Applications/MacPorts? I don't see a GUI variant.

Jerry ___ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users . Hi, Jerry. Define tons. goffice and its dependencies are absolutely required (this is the bulk of the dependencies). gobject-introspection could be made optional (provides ability for Python and others languages to dynamically generate bindings to libspreadsheet) gnome-common and gnome-doc-utils are build dependencies and are not necessary once the port is installed (they are relatively small) desktop-file-utils provides a utility to register gnumeric's .desktop file in the desktop file database and is not necessary after installation. (also small) If you have any other GNOME apps (actually GTK+ apps) installed, you should have most of these installed already as they are commonly used in that environment. Using otool, I can see that the ssconvert utility, itself, links with libraries provided by the following ports: atk cairo fontconfig freetype gdk-pixbuf2 gettext glib2 gnumeric goffice gtk3 libgsf libxml2 pango This is basically gtk3 and dependencies plus goffice and gnumeric. Unless you are really strapped for disk space, I would go ahead, build gnumeric and see what the additional disk space is. I don't think it would be too much extra but then I have ALL the GNOME ports installed. But if you only have a few command line utilities installed from MacPorts you might think it's a lot! Reality is probably somewhere in between. Your calibration may vary! :-). At any rate, you can remove it and its dependencies fairly easily if you decide it's not what you want. sudo port -f uninstall gnumeric rdepof:gnumeric Dave Dave, thanks tons 8^) for providing that information. It looks like I already have most of the gtk stuff and lack only gdk-pixbuf2 and libgsf, besides goffice and gnumeric. However, your list doesn't cover all the dependencies for gnumeric itself. I'm not strapped for disk space and I want to keep it that way. I'll give this a try and see how it goes. ...later... Well, not so good. After I installed gnumeric my /opt/local increased in size by 1.85 GB. Gnumeric was missing a bunch of icons and the help system so I installed gnome-themes-standard and yelp which added another 1.18 GB for a total of 3.03 GB added. (I already had a bunch of stuff installed so now my MacPorts directory is 10.2 GB.) The worst part is that the spreadsheet - LyX workflow that I was shooting for fails which is not a MacPorts problem since ssconvert is being found and used. I'll probably fiddle around with this some more but in case I want to remove the 3.03 GB blob (gnumeric, gnome-themes-standard, yelp), what would I do? I've read the uninstall instructions for MacPorts more than once and am a little queazy that I'll do the wrong thing (dependents, dependencies), plus your suggestion above confuses me. Here's what I think I should do: port uninstall --follow-dependencies gnumeric port uninstall --follow-dependencies gnome-themes-standard port uninstall --follow-dependencies yelp I had thought that it might be possible to just keep ssconvert by moving it somewhere else but it is only 54 kB so obviously it uses other stuff as you found.

They have even worked on some ports to get them upgraded to get things to work together. The only reason that I could see any redundant versions is if they require some specific version that macports doesn't have. And doing that would be tricky to avoid any conflicting versions. I think that you have a bit of a misunderstanding. You could, for example create your own port file of something, and just keep that file locally (see the macport instructions). That port could then have other dependencies that are included with macports. All they have done is put their port file, instead, on their server, and you can then use it by adding it to your sources file. No redundant files involved, and no extra disk space. A port file is just a text file that explains where to find files, and how to build. Part of that how is what other ports are required to be installed. If someone were able to copy the current port file from their server to macports the build would be identical in size and dependents. My guess is that the reason they haven't done that is because the release version is a bit behind, and the develop version is changing every day. But I don't know for sure. Adam, Jerry is correct. The binary distribution provided on the openmodelica web site, though created with MacPorts, installs the MacPorts-provided dependencies into a separate prefix /opt/openmodelica, not the normal MacPorts prefix /opt/local. This is exactly as we at MacPorts would recommend for a third party wanting to distribute a standalone installer so that it will not conflict with an existing MacPorts installation. Jerry is correct that, would the openmodelica developers instead submit their portfile to be included in the standard MacPorts ports tree, then openmodelica could be installed by using existing MacPorts dependencies (in /opt/local or whatever the user's prefix is), and would not need separate copies thereof in /opt/openmodelica. The user can already accomplish this however by setting up a second sources entry in their sources.conf pointing to the openmodelica rsync server, which is in fact what Jerry had done and is what prompted him to begin this thread, when the openmodelica rsync server was temporarily offline. You can read more about all of this at: https://www.openmodelica.org/index.php/download/download-mac Perhaps we just were not communicating clearly. I was not talking about the binary, and I didn’t think that Jerry was either (perhaps I am mistaken). He was suggesting that they make an “official port file” and they already have one. They just keep it on their own server. The instructions on that page make it clear, as you said. The reason that I believe the binary had nothing to do with Jerry’s comments is because if he was using the binary he would not have run into the rsync problem when their server went down. That problem was purely from trying to download the source port file, which, as I have said, takes up the same amount of space whether on their server or the macports server. I did verify that their port does just use the existing qt4-mac port, for example, so their is no redundancy in Qt, as Jerry had suggested. But, I do understand that if someone installs the binary, then they are not using Macports for the install, and will be downloading a whole bunch of stuff that they might already have. The port file for openmodelica-devel changes many times a day. So, I assume that they have a script that auto generates it, on their server, for every change in their development branch. I have been using their development branch with macports, for a while now, and it has tended to work well. As it is devel, there are occasional problems, but they have always been very quick to fix them, and keep it building. Well, let's all agree that I barely know what I'm talking about. My file at /opt/local/etc/macports/sources.conf contains two non-comment lines: rsync://rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs/ports.tar [default] rsync://build.openmodelica.org/macports/ I don't know how the second line appeared

I think that you have a bit of a misunderstanding. You could, for example create your own port file of something, and just keep that file locally (see the macport instructions). That port could then have other dependencies that are included with macports. All they have done is put their port file, instead, on their server, and you can then use it by adding it to your sources file. No redundant files involved, and no extra disk space. A port file is just a text file that explains where to find files, and how to build. Part of that how is what other ports are required to be installed. If someone were able to copy the current port file from their server to macports the build would be identical in size and dependents. My guess is that the reason they haven't done that is because the release version is a bit behind, and the develop version is changing every day. But I don't know for sure. Adam, Jerry is correct. The binary distribution provided on the openmodelica web site, though created with MacPorts, installs the MacPorts-provided dependencies into a separate prefix /opt/openmodelica, not the normal MacPorts prefix /opt/local. This is exactly as we at MacPorts would recommend for a third party wanting to distribute a standalone installer so that it will not conflict with an existing MacPorts installation. Jerry is correct that, would the openmodelica developers instead submit their portfile to be included in the standard MacPorts ports tree, then openmodelica could be installed by using existing MacPorts dependencies (in /opt/local or whatever the user's prefix is), and would not need separate copies thereof in /opt/openmodelica. The user can already accomplish this however by setting up a second sources entry in their sources.conf pointing to the openmodelica rsync server, which is in fact what Jerry had done and is what prompted him to begin this thread, when the openmodelica rsync server was temporarily offline. You can read more about all of this at: https://www.openmodelica.org/index.php/download/download-mac Perhaps we just were not communicating clearly. I was not talking about the binary, and I didn’t think that Jerry was either (perhaps I am mistaken). He was suggesting that they make an “official port file” and they already have one. They just keep it on their own server. The instructions on that page make it clear, as you said. The reason that I believe the binary had nothing to do with Jerry’s comments is because if he was using the binary he would not have run into the rsync problem when their server went down. That problem was purely from trying to download the source port file, which, as I have said, takes up the same amount of space whether on their server or the macports server. I did verify that their port does just use the existing qt4-mac port, for example, so their is no redundancy in Qt, as Jerry had suggested. But, I do understand that if someone installs the binary, then they are not using Macports for the install, and will be downloading a whole bunch of stuff that they might already have. The port file for openmodelica-devel changes many times a day. So, I assume that they have a script that auto generates it, on their server, for every change in their development branch. I have been using their development branch with macports, for a while now, and it has tended to work well. As it is devel, there are occasional problems, but they have always been very quick to fix them, and keep it building. Well, let's all agree that I barely know what I'm talking about. My file at /opt/local/etc/macports/sources.conf contains two non-comment lines: rsync://rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs/ports.tar [default] rsync://build.openmodelica.org/macports/ I don't know how the second line appeared since I _think_ I have not messed with openmodelica since last installing MacPorts. Should I remove the second line? The following is a history of openmodelica wrt

They made a port file, they just keep it on their own server. If they moved the port, and all the files to macport.org, that would not change the size of the download. There are some required dependencies and they get installed when you install it. That would not change with an official port. The only change is then installation would be slightly easier, since the port is in macports already. --Adam I was assuming that, since many dependencies service more than one port, a proper macports port of openmodelica would, in many cases, cause less additional disk storage than their standalone package derived from macports. For example, openmodelica uses Qt; Qt is also used by many other ports, so the Qt bundled with their standalone package would be redundant and wasteful. Yes, of one does not have MacPorts already installed then the standalone approach would be more efficient. I may have used port file incorrectly. Sorry of that caused confusion. I meant only to suggest that they provide an official MacPorts way to install their software achievable by port install openmodelica.

Migration question and binary question

If I do this, will the script install old versions of ports which had not been active? I'm thinking that this might be a good time to do some decrufting and I would like to consider these old inactive versions as mostly cruft and not reinstall them. Also, I've been confused about binary versions--are there binary versions of some ports and if so I would like to install them preferentially over building from source. How do I discover the presence of a binary port and how do I install it?

Setting configure.compiler in these ports is not the solution; the fortran recipe was introduced as a way to use a fortran compiler that did not involve changing the C/C++ compilers, since we do not want to change the C/C++ compilers on Mavericks or later, since changing the C++ compiler would introduce a different C++ library and mixing two different C++ libraries causes problems. This needs to be filed in the issue tracker, if it’s not already there. I’m not sure what the solution is. Maybe MacPorts base needs to become smarter about when to use -arch flags, basing the decision on each individual compiler executable, rather than assuming the entire collection of compilers will be changed simultaneously. I forgot to mention that I'm using OS X 10.8.5. The aforementioned fortran recipe was (I think) introduced to help Mavericks, but regardless of why it was introduced, it is now in use in portfiles, and the same portfiles are used on all OS versions. This sounds like a serious problem. Does this mean that anyone who updates Octave (or Fortran) will have this problem? I don’t know how far the problem reaches. I did see in your output that you’re using gcc45. Any particular reason? The default is now gcc48; you could try that instead. That may help; parts of gcc have gained support for -arch flags in recent versions. The only thing that I can think of is that a non-Macports Ada compiler (GNAT GPL, either 2013 or 2011 edition) was found. I don't know how. I almost certainly had the 2013 edition last on my PATH when this problem occurred, and it reports version 4.7.4. I am having problems on the PLplot project that I work on and am fussing around there with a problem, and it is possible that I had the 2011 edition early on my path, and it reports version 4.5.3. But none of this makes sense because at all times the first two items in my path variable are /opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin so I don't see how a macports build would ever see a GNAT. In any event I have removed all GNATs from my path and now get this: gcc --version i686-apple-darwin11-llvm-gcc-4.2 (GCC) 4.2.1 (Based on Apple Inc. build 5658) (LLVM build 2336.11.00) Dunno. Doesn't macports use its own gcc in /opt/local? Can you recommend to me how to use the correct gcc? Also: Can you comment on Michael's suggestion?

Where are GUI apps for ports installed?
Some ports install a double-clickable binary in /Applications/MacPorts. However, the only things installed in that location are on my system are AquaTerm, Pallet, some python 2.7 auxiliary stuff, and something related to Qt4 called qmlplugindump. I have the Spyder port installed and there is a binary for it but it does not install in this location but rather apparently in /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python with a symlink in /opt/local/bin to another small file which is a short python script which launches it. A different situation is cmake. When I install this from another place (probably the official cmake developer site), there is a GUI application placed in /Applications. However, the MacPorts version apparently does not install a GUI app anywhere. I find this a little disconcerting. Is there a MacPorts policy about these kinds of things?

Is Macports version of Spyder 2.2.0 same as official release?
Hi, I see that Spyder 2.2.0 (Scientific PYthon Development EnviRonment) is out. There is an official .dmg distribution available from the project's home page. According to the list of changes for 2.2.0 http://code.google.com/p/spyderlib/wiki/ChangeLog is this: The App comes with its own interpreter, which has the main Python scientific libraries preinstalled: Numpy, SciPy, Matplotlib, IPython, Pandas, Sympy, Scikit-learn and Scikit-image. Does the MacPorts version of Spyder 2.2.0 include all of these add-ons? I hate duplicating things such as Python interpreters, Numpy, etc. all over the place if I can do it once with MacPorts so I would much prefer to use the MacPorts version if possible. Also, the MacPorts page lists both py-spyder 2.2.0 and py27-spyder 2.2.0. Are these the same?

Unable to activate port dbus. Use 'port -f activate dbus' to force the activation.

What is state of Ada compiler?
What is the state of the Macports Ada compiler, GNAT? I recall a couple years ago there was a bootstrapping problem since the compiler is written in Ada. Is it possible to have a 64-bit compiler on OS X 10.5? 10.6? The 2010 GPL edition from Adacore fixes the linking problem to BLAS and LAPACK, meaning that there is a linker pragma specific to OS X that finds those libraries so the user no longer has to do this. Also, that edition fixes a problem with the non-blocking Get_Immediate (in the past, it was blocking). Does Macports GNAT also fixe these problems? Also, does Macports include GPS, GNAT Programming Studio, the Ada- specific IDE?

gnat-gcc Ada GNAT on 10.6 Snow Leopard
Is there a GNAT (Ada) compiler that is known to work with Snow Leopard, OS X 10.6? If so, what version(s) of Xcode works with it? I'm on the macada.org list and will gladly report any discussion there back to that list. I recall that someone, not too long ago, managed to bootstrap GNAT into Macports. I'm just wondering if that effort has succeeded with Snow Leopard.

Re: Re-do MacPorts after upgrading from Tiger to Leopard on PPC?
I just upgraded the OS from Tiger to Leopard on PPC. Do I need to re- install any or all of my MacPorts stuff? Jerry OP here. I don't know why I didn't get all the other posts in this thread--I just got the last two today and that's all. Thanks for all the answers. Even before I saw them today, I solved all my MacPorts problems by uninstall everything. I'm not being ungrateful because believe me, I'm just the opposite. However, I would like to offer a bit of feedback. My experience with MacPorts has been pretty bad. If I had really _needed_ any of the software that I tried to install, as opposed to just evaluating it, I would have been pretty hosed, I'm afraid. I mostly appreciate the ambitious goal of MacPorts and I might try again later, but not soon. As I recall, I was mainly interested in wxMaxima (a symbolic math program), gcc with Ada (GNAT), and LyX (a technical word processor). I never succeeded in installing any of these from MacPorts. The level of support I got was mostly very good but still variable, and with way too much mucking around for someone who doesn't see these things as essential. I once again tried Fink with slightly better results--a working wxMaxima and a LyX that sort of worked but lacked basic functionality such as printing and exporting. So between the MacPorts and Fink, I recovered my 9 GB of disk space and called it good for now. I can (and have) downloaded a binary of Sage which gives me browser interface to Maxima and if I'm still interested when I next get a chance, I'll download the binary of LyX. If I were on an Intel machine, the new $250 full version of Mathematica would solve all my problems in these areas (but not GNAT, to which problem I found another solution). So thanks once again. I'll revert to lurk mode for a while. Jerry ___ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users

Ticket #16549 (add Ada to gcc)
I am extremely interested in this ticket http://trac.macports.org/ticket/16549 to add Ada support to gcc. My particular situation is that I need an Ada 2005 compiler (which means gcc 4.3) which runs on PPC hardware under OS X 10.5. (My need relates to the fact that I have written Ada bindings to the excellent PLplot plotting library but I still work on one of the last PowerBooks which is PPC.) I already have a functioning Ada 2005 compiler running on PPC under 10.4.11 so I have the necessary bootstrapping required to build the new compiler. I believe that the process would involve building the new compiler while running 10.4.x and then installing 10.5.x while maintaining /opt. I'm not sure how to encourage faster attention to this ticket except to vote with this post. Many TIA, Jerry ___ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users

I think it would be best to take this issue to the octave team, and see if they can reproduce the problem (on other platforms even ?) or know where it might come from. You're right, and that was my first hunch. Thanks for your help.

I suppose this is something that I should take up with the Octave people but I thought I'd tweak this list and the maintainer just in case it is something obviously wrong with this particular version. Let me start with my (quick) tests : octave:1 t = time(); x = [1:10]; y = cos(x); plot(x, y); time() - t ans = 0.29453 But as you have noted, the graphic only appears after several seconds (~10s on my Nov '07 Mac Book). So octave still manages the points very fast, but the graphics backend (X11 GnuPlot) seems to lag a bit. If my example is not valid, and doesn't illustrate your problem correctly, could you give some reduction cases please ? I also have a couple of questions which might help understand the cause of the problem. - What machine are you running octave on ? PPC Powerbook 1.5 GHz 2 GB - What version of Mac OS X are you running ? 10.5.11 - How did you compile octave 2.1 ? I downloaded it from http://hpc.sourceforge.net/ which is linked from http://www.gnu.org/software/octave/download.html as one of three binary download sites. (The others are Macports and Fink.) - What graphics backend does octave 2.1 use for plotting ? It uses gnuplot working with Aquaterm--versions of which are installed separately from the Macports versions. Here are some more test results from running this program: The setup is this, run only once per session: x = [1:10]; y = cos(x); The timed part is this: t = time(); plot(x, y); time() - t which reports an answer (call it t1) some time before the plot appears (and at which time the prompt returns)--the latter time I time on my watch call t2. In all cases the plot was run at least once before timing it. Here are some results for t1 and t2 for various versions which are: 2.1.71 downloaded last year from http://hpc.sourceforge.net 3.0.1 downloaded today from http://hpc.sourceforge.net 3.0.1 installed by Macports a few days ago Octave versionOutput device t1t2 == Macports 3.0.1Aquaterm0.64575 22 Macports 3.0.1X11 0.41969 22 HPC 2.1.71 Aquaterm2.70574 HPC 2.1.71 X11 N/A; uses Aquaterm HPC 3.0.1Aquaterm0.62115 22 HPC 3.0.1X11 N/A; defaults to Terminal.app FWIW, Activity Monitor reports high CPU usage from gnuplot while waiting for the plots to appear. Jerry My guess would be that your octave 2.1 doesn't use GnuPlot in the same way as the macports version of octave 3.0. This might be fixable by changing configure/build options, though. If we reduce the problem to the graphics backend, as I suspect is the case, then we can look if the graphics backend has changed for all octave3.0s from octave2.1s, or if this is indeed configurable, and it is possible to get the old plotting infrastructure back. BTW, the first time or two that I tried to make a plot (simple, like plot(x, y)) with the newly installed version of Octave from Macports, it failed completely and emitted about 10 lines of Octave-related errors. One or two restarts resulted in plots being made, but slowly, as noted above. Are you able to reproduce the errors, or at least do you still have the corresponding octave output ? Did anything (files, paths, relaunch shell) change between restarts ? Are you talking about Mac OS X restarts, or simply exiting octave and launching it again immediately ?
