Re: Maybe a weird question about Terminal
Hello Zachary and others, I have downloaded version 1.9.2, i think from the macports project but when I run the installer, I receive a message like: xcode is not installed or was installed wit unix development (10.5+) or commandline support (10.4) deselected. I have search after the xcode package and I found xcode4 in the app store for 4 euro. Is this the way I should solve that problem?

Re: Maybe a weird question about Terminal
If you insert the disk that has Snow Leopard on it, either the purchased one or the DVD that came with your computer, you will find an installer for xCode 3 on it. This should be sufficient. XCode 4 is needed for development of Lion and/or IOS 5 applications, to the best of my knowledge.

Re: Maybe a weird question about Terminal
No no no. there's an easier way. Put your snowleopard dvd in, and go in the finder to the optional installs folder. You'll find an mpkg file under there to install x code. the version from the app store doesn't work. Trust me I tried.

Re: Maybe a weird question about Terminal
Oh, true. I didn't think a that either. Good point. Chris. - Original Message - From: Zachary Kline zkl...@speedpost.net To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Sent: Saturday, June 04, 2011 2:27 PM Subject: Re: Maybe a weird question about Terminal TO add to my last message, it'd actually turn into sudo port install pianobar, since technically you don't have full admin rights by default. Just give your password when prompted. Best, Zack.

That automatically makes the appropriate changes to your .profile file so that you can just run port install pianobar. Hope this helps, Zack.

There are ways to make installing most common Unix software almost like apt-get, though the latter itself hasn't been ported over I don't think. Consider sites like www.macports.org, which maintains an up-to-date copy of pianobar among many other packages, installed via a 'ports' command. Hope this helps, Zack.

For example, there is a really nice command line only Linux based Pandora player called pianobar. It works absolutely flawlessly! Also could one install apt then do things on a mac like apt-get install or aptitude install packagename? I know that sounds like a dumb question, but... yeah, I know I could run Linux in a VM machine, or could probably in theory even do it with bootcamp, but I really would rather not, as there's really only like 3 or 4 things from Linux that I'd like to port over.
