Any chance of seeing a port of Conky?

2013-11-30 Thread Jeff Friedman

Launching Weechat

2013-11-30 Thread Jeff Friedman
Hi folks, Having a bit of a problem with Weechat. I installed it today and I can't get it to launch. I open up the Terminal and type in weechat (I'm assuming this is correct as I normally just type the name of the program I wish to launch with any other MacPorts installed program) and it

Hi, The correct way would be to create a Portfile yourself, and submit a trac ticket with it. See http://guide.macports.org/chunked/project.contributing.html If you don’t feel up to creating the port file yourself, you’ll need hope someone else finds the package interesting enough to do it

Thanks for the replies, folks. I didn't realise that Conky wouldn't be compatible with OS X. I will, however, have a look at GeekTool. Thanks again for being helpful. Best wishes, Jeff On Sat, Nov 30, 2013 at 1:56 PM, Clemens Lang c...@macports.org wrote: On Sat, Nov 30, 2013 at

gcc45 dependency for Octave?

I noticed that sudo port install octave +gcc48 eventually installs gcc45. Is that expected, or a bug? Ben ___ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users

Hi Ben - port rdeps octave +gcc48 does returns lots of ports, but gcc48 only in that category for me (10.8, MacPorts from svn trunk). Maybe it is part of a rev-upgrade? - MLD On Sat, Nov 30, 2013, at 02:06 PM, Ben Abbott wrote: I noticed that sudo port install octave +gcc48 eventually installs
