Exactly, that’s the one I meant. Perhaps it’s worth mentioning it on the

ok, I see.

BTW, you’ve mentioned in some thread lately this GitHub command line client!
However, exactly that client doesn’t yet appear on the WorkingWithGit tools
page [1]. I guess it would be worth adding.

Re: Moving to GitHub: Status Update, Action Required

[Marko Käning]

Hi Clemens,

great to see the GitHub conversion progressing this rapidly! Thumbs up from 
me!!!


When reading the WorkingWithGit wiki page [1] I saw how port contributors can 
post
their suggestions to MacPorts via "Pull Requests”, yet it does not get clear 
from
that text how those PRs will then actually be included into the official repo…

Just this moment I got invited to MacPorts' "Developer team" on GitHub and saw 
that
I now have "pull access” to the MacPorts ports repository, which is probably 
enabling
me in the future to push changes into it?

But the term “pull access” confuses me here!

I mean, I can pull in changes into my clone or fork from the MacPorts repo any 
time…

Can you clarify this somewhat, as I have no experience yet in teams on GitHub!?

Thanks,
Marko

Re: [KDE/Mac] another round of KF5 test-building please

[Marko Käning]

Hi René,

sorry, but this will be a little longer post, as I was finally putting a bit of 
work into my tests,
because I’d also like to see qt5-kde as an alternative port on MacPorts 
soonish. It would be best of
course if this would be a joint activity of Michael, mcalhoun and you i.e. 
qt5-kde some part of qt5.
But I guess that’s hard to synchronise if interests on both sides aren’t 
matching.

OK, I just built KF5-Frameworks with stock cmake and got through with

I followed this advice of yours though:

Don't forget to copy the following file(s) into your main port tree's

or 
/opt/local/var/macports/sources/svn.macports.org/trunk/dports/_resources/port1.0/group)

I only spotted this:
---

Is that critical?



I didn’t see Kurt’s issues with kdelibs4support and ktexteditor though...



AND I guess all these warnings are nothing to worry about, as those ports are 
just meta ports for a
variety of other kf5-* ports:

Is this assumption correct?

If this message is only debug output for you as the maintainer I think one 
should leave it out in
the final release of port:qt5-kde in order to not to confuse the users too much.




I was also able to build kf5-kate and run Kate.app as well as KWrite.app

to make it happen…

Sophos Antivirus claims port 'zlib' ships a Virus/Spyware called "iPh/WireLurk-G"...

[Marko Käning]

Hi folks,

today I got a warning from my "Sophos Antivirus" w.r.t. MacPorts!!!

It claimed that zlib’s dylib file

/opt/local/lib/libz.1.2.8.dylib

carried a virus called

iPh/WireLurk-G

and I wonder now whether this was
- actually true or
- a false positive or 
- whether Sophos is trying to trade snake oil to me…


It was very weird, that at some stage the dylib file - despite being readable -
---
$ ls -l /opt/local/lib/libz.1.2.8.dylib
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 76404 Nov 15  2013 /opt/local/lib/libz.1.2.8.dylib
---
could _not_ be read by any user.
Later it was readable again...
Was I tricked by some OSX internals (triggered by Sophos’ 
quarantine workflow)
or indeed by a virus?


Is there a way to verify whether the files installed by port “zlib” are 
actually those
currently to be found in MacPorts’ own archives? Are there verifiable hashes 
for files
installed by a port somewhere?

Marko

Especially because you searched for inactive, it should be okay to delete them.

But even if you omitted inactive you could uninstall everything, yet those ports
might be necessary for builds, like here in my case:

  asciidoc @8.6.9_2 (active)
  autoconf @2.69_3 (active)
  automake @1.15_0 (active)

  xorg-xcb-util @0.4.0_0 (active)
  yasm @1.3.0_0 (active)
---

If all those where gone, next time you build something they’d be installed
automagically again.

To have a little more control over it, you might use “sudo port setrequested”
as described in the Guide [1]. If you then call “port installed leaves” you’d
only see those which you were not explicitly installing previously.

Advertising KDE4 on OSX/MacPorts ( was Re: MacPorts usage statistics )

 If one uses say a KDE Desktop how does that affect native aqua applications 
 (any apps that don’t use X11/Quartz)

on OSX/MacPorts you would NOT run a real KDE desktop, but rather get all KDE4 
applications running
natively on your Mac _without_ X11/Quartz, i.e. by using Aqua!

We’re trying to keep the user experience as close as possible to a Linux-based 
KDE desktop installation,
see e.g. René’s port kde4-workspace [1]. It allows to run the KDE “System 
Settings” utility which can
configure KDE for instance regarding the standard theme used by all KDE 
applications.

This is an important point, since the default “Macintosh (aqua)” theme results 
in weird layout errors [2]
and it is recommended on OSX to use the qtcurve theme instead [3].

Check out our list of current KDE problems on the MacPorts wiki [4] and perhaps 
join the KDE-MAC mailing
list [5] if you need support. Having said that, you can always post any 
KDE4-related question also here
on MacPorts-Users, as the KDE-MAC folks are all MacPorts guys anyways. :)

It could be, that [5] isn’t very up to date these days, as all KDE-MAC 
contributors are very actively
working on a variety of issues currently. There’s more stuff on KDE’s Review 
Board [6] and on KDE’s bug
tracker [7].

Last but not least, check out our initial wiki page at [8] if you want to know 
what’s up next!

to successfully run Mavericks guests on my Mavericks host running on an i7-iMac.

Parallels usually works fine if you _disable_ power saving on the guests!!

Sometimes but I experience hanging guests! Only chance to recover from that is
to kill the VM in question from within the host system and restart it (which
means a cold reboot). This usually happens when there is a lot of load with
e.g. two VMs running with 7 cores each on the i7 (which has 8 real cores only).
This can also happen when you’re creating a snapshot, while the 2nd machine is
very busy.

Sometimes also the keyboard’s CAPSLOCK is engaged, although the keyboard’s
CAPSLOCK LED isn’t lit. Recovering from that you will be pressing the key a
couple of times until the LED is back in sync with what you type.

Greets,
Marko

this kernel panic is exactly the issue I was running into as well at the time

 I used to use Parallels quite a bit - I really liked it.

I like it very much (because it allows to make full use of the CPU’s features
as described by René), but I have to add some two more quirk I run into from
time to time:

1) Sometimes a mouse click into the guest window catches some mouse-keyboard
  feature which causes a text selection in an open bash window. Moving the
  mouse around just selects the pointed to text range. There’s no way out of
  it, except by rebooting.

2) Sometimes the I end up in a strange input mode in a bash terminal window,
  which shows a mouse cursor looking like a question mark. I don’t know how
  to escape from that either, thus also rebooting.

What I liked in VB was that I could select multiple snapshots and delete them
all at once, which isn’t possible in Parallels 9. :( I miss that feature, as
I frequently create snapshots.

Re: icon generation on OS X 10.6

Hi René,

 Anyone know where icon generation is handled in cmake-based ports? I whipped 
 up a
 replacement for the iconutil command using png2icns.

oh, it's very nice that you've found a replacement for the tool. This might 
bring back
a lot of application icons of KDE apps on OSX, which has been a long standing 
issue [1]!

Alternatively you might consider port makeicns which is able to create various 
sizes of
the source image, but perhaps png2icns can do the same...


 The command is picked up (if it's in /usr/bin ..) and icns files are 
 generated,
 but they're not copied into the target appbundles, let alone installed as app 
 icons.

I think this is rather a question for KDE-DEVEL, perhaps.

Re: Help With Kmymoney port

Hi Salatiel,

I have to admit I never tried to use kmymoney 1.0.5 with an encrypted kmy 
file...

 Well, if i start kmymoney from the launchpad icon and try to open my file i 
 get:
 Sorry: GPG is not available for decryption of file /Users/someone/enc.kmy
 If i open a terminal , execute /opt/local/bin/kmymoney and try to open
 the file, if asks me for the password and open the encrypted file just
 fine.
 Whats the problem with the launch pad icon ?
I don't know, yet. I guess I need to test such a case…

Did you consider trying kmymoney4 or kmymoney4-devel? It could be that for 
those it would work out of the box...
But it's a pain-staking experience to build all the KDE4 dependencies if you're 
now up and running with the older version 1.0.5 using KDE3.

In any case it would be good to file a ticket. If you do so, please do put me 
as the maintainer (m...@macports.org) into the Owned by field!


 Another question: Is there a way to make the kmymoney application open
 centered on the screen ? it always start half inside screen , half
 outside.
This bugged me also a couple of times, but I couldn't find a way around it. 
It's caused - I guess - by X11.app and I don't know whether it can be improved 
somehow.

Since kmymoney 1.0.5 requires X11.app to run it behaves a little differently 
than other applications.
I also noticed the weird placing of the app's window and found no way around 
it. It depends also on which other apps are present on the screen…

Try ports kmymoney4 or kmymoney4-devel, if you want to see the difference to 
the newer version 4.6.*! The KDE4 version is still having some OSX-specific 
problems, but one can work with it if you know how to circumvent those issues.
Version 4 has definitely more Mac OS X feel than the older one.

Do we need to contact someone upstream or is this a port issue?

 In fact there's no way to globally turn it off. MacPorts will use binaries if

OK… I see. I thought that 

portarchivemode

could achieve that...

 Binaries are available for some ports' default variants for Snow Leopard for 
 x86_64. If you have i386, or want universal, or have Leopard or Tiger, or 
 want a non-default variant, you'll still build from source.
I'm still running snow leopard on x86_64… Probably some ports are installed in

tbz2 might be NOW the default setting, but it wasn't in my macports.conf, very

Yep, it works - as already posted - for one of my MacPorts trees. :-)
And that's the one located below /opt/local … ;-)

 I don't know the complete list of requirements. Archive type tbz2 is 
 necessary as you found, as are the conditions I mentioned earlier.
Yep

 Also if you've compiled MacPorts in a different prefix than /opt/local you 
 can't get the binaries.
Ha, THIS IS MY PROBLEM with respect to my other MacPorts trees.
They are NOT using /opt/local, but /opt/macports-test or /opt/clean-slate or 
stuff like that…

I wonder whether there will be support for alternative prefixes, if that's 
possible at all…





 If you have applications_dir or frameworks_dir set differently than the 
 defaults, you'll still get the binaries, but applications and frameworks will 
 go in their default locations, not your changed locations; we need to fix 
 that, maybe by disabling binaries if you've changed applications_dir or 
 frameworks_dir. There is a ticket.
OK, good to know. Will try to find that ticket now...

 My observation is that the archive that's downloaded takes the place of the 
 one you would have otherwise compiled. Uninstalling the port deletes the 
 archive (whether you built it or it got downloaded). Reinstalling the port 
 requires downloading (or building) the archive again.
Yep.
Well, one has to admit, it's still so much quicker than building everything 
yourself. :-)

I imagine that port info PORTNAME could tell me beforehand.

Something like

Yes.

 I haven't looked into it very far, but it seems like when trying to use
 aqbanking5, gnucash fails to build because it's expecting a GTK version

Well, when I set up aqbanking5 I hadn't gnucash in mind.
If gnucash needs a newer version we'd need to overhaul the port and probably 
make the GTK version a variant.
