Re: port upgrade outdated hangs networking

I had something similar happening to me across Wireguard VPN and it was an
MTU mismatch.

Re: The installed version of macFUSE is too old for the operating system

[Ruben Di Battista]

Later versions are available only in binary form.

On a related note, there was a discussion about adding "binary only" ports
or variants  for this specific requirement at least, where sources are not
available. Was it finalized?

Re: Conflicty between MacPorts and Anaconda

Conda sera the prompt to help you remembering your within a conda
environment. It makes some sort of sense.

But the aggressive environment messing up, for me, is unacceptable. :)

Re: Specify port for file dependency

[Ruben Di Battista]

Yeah, no thanks for your help. I appreciate!

What I meant is at runtime, on the command line.

How do I tell "I want to install gdl3, but using `pango-devel` to provide
libpango instead of `pango`?

I might install pango-devel manually, but that would make pango-devel a
requested port.

Re: Conflicty between MacPorts and Anaconda

/rant on

Here we are again. I've been ranting on Twitter about this so much! Almost
80% of the problems I need to troubleshoot in my HPC team are associated to
people installing Anaconda, that messes up the user environment, and
forgetting that they did it. Anaconda messes up also when building things
outside of conda, I've been scratching my head so many times in front of
obscure linking errors with mismatching hdf5 libraries.

My 2c: trash anaconda. Use your system package manager to install the
minimum Python environment that allows you to use virtualenvs.

Then use an individual virtualenv per project. This isolates your
environment and its up to you to activate it when you need it. Nowadays
most of big HPC libraries ship pre-built wheels, and if they don't, they
should IMHO.

It's not as battery included as conda related to compiled extensions, but
you'll end up saving time because errors are more clear identifiable, and
there's not weird environment pollution happening.

Re: "port install meld" does not yield working executable

[Ruben Di Battista]

If you run `port notes dbus` it should tell you how to enable the service
in launchd if I'm not mistaken.

I haven't the Mac available right now, otherwise I'll give you the command
that I don't remember by heat

Re: How to search by package name

[Ruben Di Battista]

https://guide.macports.org/chunked/using.html

Here you can find tips on how to tune your regex. You can use a regex
expression matching just the port name

port search --name --line --regex 'sed$’

This returns all the ports ending with *sed.

Notably, what are you looking for, I guess, is gsed, i.e. GNU sed.

Re: Failure to upgrade outdated

I think there's no need. It's just that you had a very outdated port
collection. So if you do a `port rev-upgrade` and nothing strange pops
out, you should be good to go!

Re: Failure to upgrade outdated

[Ruben Di Battista]

Mh, I think that `pstoedit` port should depend on
`texlive-latex-recommended`. So try to install it (or upgrade it) before,
and then try again.

Re: Failure to upgrade outdated

Did you already tried to do what it suggest?

```
Please deactivate this port first, or use 'port -f activate libgcc10' to
force the activation.
```
So deactivate the libgcc port and run the upgrade again?

Re: Apple ARM binary codesign issue

Can't be an easier choice to push globally  a linker switch, if it exists,
to disable codesigning altogether for MP software?

Re: On building poppler

[Ruben Di Battista]

Hi Dave, 

That is standard practice. I don’t know the real reason for it, didn’t bother 
to investigate, but you just need to follow what is written there: that is 
deactivating Poppler before upgrading it. 

`sudo port -f deactivate popper`
`sudo port upgrade popper`.

I guess it is a safety measure to avoid breaking running programs? I guess.  
Here: https://trac.macports.org/ticket/58574 there’s probably the long answer 
to that :)

Different environment (apparently) calling make from python subprocess

[Ruben Di Battista]

I just discovered this anomaly: https://bugs.python.org/issue40261. TL, DR: if 
I run a `make` command from within a subprocess, the build of Python from 
source behaves differently and breaks.

Could any of you try the step to reproduce and see if he/she is getting the 
same weird behavior I’m getting?

Re: Call for contributors to macOS port of GDB

I mean, I guess you just need a registrar with an API for setting DNS records 
and a Python script to get your own DDNS service. I did for OVH, for example: 
https://pypi.org/project/ovh-dynhost/ ^^

But I guess we’re going off topic...

No, someone who wishes remote access collects their public keys and  
puts them in an authorized_keys file. Then, I drop them at  
/.ssh/authorized_keys.  

Usually what happens is someone sends me a *.pub file and it gets  
cat'd into ssh/authorized_keys.

Sorry, I don't use DDNS services.  

I tried one about 15 years ago. They sold or shared my information  
with Network Solutions, which would not stop spamming me. I tried to  
get off their list for about 5 years. I tried normal support channels,  
like contacting webmaster@, postmaster@, NS legal department, NS  
support, NS executive support, Better Business Bureau complaints, FCC  
complaints and FTC complaints. I finally had to take Network Solutions  
to court to get off their damn list. Checkout Walton vs Network  
Solutions filed in Montgomery County, MD.  

I'll be damned if I go down that road again.

Strange behaviour of subprocess_check_output with Macports Python in virtualenv

[Ruben Di Battista]

Hello, 
I’m experiencing a problem (https://github.com/davidhalter/jedi/issues/1375). 

Running this on a Python installed with Macports: 
```
Python 3.8.1 (default, Feb  8 2020, 01:33:23)
[Clang 11.0.0 (clang-1100.0.33.16)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import subprocess
>>> subprocess.check_output('/Users/rubendibattista/.envs/josiepy-B4k-0ZyT/bin/python
>>>  -c "import sys; print(sys.executable)"', shell=True)
b'/opt/local/bin/python\n'
```

I get as result the system python executable and not the one from the 
virtualenv (created using pew). 
While on Linux: 

```
Python 3.7.3 (default, Jun  7 2019, 17:57:55)

Does it work for you? Is it a bug from Macports, from my particular 
configuration, from macOs or from Python build on macOs? (Or isn’t a bug?)

Re: Configuring Python3 on MacOS Macports

[Ruben Di Battista]

I still need to release my muscle memory .

(in reality I don't use bare virtualenv but more pew and pipenv that I
believe use venv for Python 3)

Re: Configuring Python3 on MacOS Macports

[Ruben Di Battista]

Wait wait wait wait...

Why are you doing the `python setup.py` thing? I strongly discourage you to
use the system python to install packages globally.

What I suggest you is to use virtualenvs.

* Install py-virtualenv
* Create virtualenv
* Activate  the virtual environment
* Install things locally to the virtual env using pip
* Deactivate when finished


This way you create isolated environments for each one of your applications
without messing up with the system packages. You can then delete them if
you don't need them anymore without the fear of destroying everything... :)

There are also other tools to make this even more pleasant (pew, pipenv).

Re: XCode 11 on Mojave problem, again

[Ruben Di Battista]

Ehi Mojca, 

Thanks for the message. :)

I managed to fix it. I got confused because recently I updated Xcode, but in 
facts the problem was completely unrelated: I had a project header file named 
“math.h”. :) Very noob mistake! Interestingly enough, this bug does not pop-out 
on Linux (using GCC). 

So I just renamed “math.h” to a custom name, and now everything is back as 
before (Ah, pay attention! Most of macOS systems have a case-insensitive 
filesystem… I firstly renamed the file from “math.h” -> “Math.h”, but it didn’t 
work either and it took a while to realize that on macOS “math.h” and “Math.h” 
are the same if the FS is case-insensitive. 

In any case thanks for your help! :)

XCode 11 on Mojave problem, again

[Ruben Di Battista]

Hello people, 

I saw this kind of errors quite often lately around. But this times I’m hitting 
this with a local project, not a port in Macports. A project that used to build 
correctly with Xcode 10, now it seems to miss stuff in  header.

Re: Private ports

[Ruben Di Battista]

Yes, easiest thing is to provide a folder containing the ports you need to ship 
(even better a git repository) as a Local Portfile Repository. You’ll need to 
edit the /opt/local/etc/macports/sources.conf in order to tell macports to look 
for ports there before. 

Is this what you were looking for?

Re: MacPorts and Anaconda

[Ruben Di Battista]

This can be applied also to virtualenv. What you need to do, imho, is to
just create conda envs. They're isolated from system interpreters and they
should not collide with anything. In these envs you can install whatever
you want... And keep it from interfering with system packages...

Re: A general philosophical question about MacPorts

[Ruben Di Battista]

To complement people answer, and most of all, "Why macOS"? Well, because
there is not another Unix laptop that is as efficiently implemented. For
example, take a Windows laptop, put Linux on it, and see your battery life
drop at least of 15-20%. Well, i hate it. On my macOS I have very good
battery life with basically 99% of Linux software compiled with the help of
MacPorts.

Using a VM workflow is really a no-go for me. So laggy and time consuming.
And really, macOS is really beautiful to use and agile. The gestures are
really time saving and they're already there without pindaric flights among
Windows Managers bugs and configurations on Linux (I could achieve
something similarly agile with ArchLinux + KDE Plasma 5, but I needed to
tweak quite a lot)

If you are using the compiler by hand in the command line, you can set the
CPATH env variable to point to the include directory...
(/opt/local/include)

Even if the system headers should be included by default if I'm not

inkscape +quartz 100% CPU all the time on Mojave

[Ruben Di Battista]

Hello, 
I just upgraded my OS to Mojave and installed all the ports. I’m encountering a 
problem with Inkscape. If I run it (both from terminal and app) it is very 
sluggish and it always gets 100% CPU. 

Any idea on how to debug this?
