I want to remind everyone of the state of the Mac package of Demeter.
As I said a couple weeks ago, the fellow who kindly made the Mac
package is no longer able to provide support for it due to a change in
his position at his place of employment. See:
http://www.mail-archive.com/ifeffit@millenia.cars.aps.anl.gov/msg04748.html
Unless someone volunteers to maintain the MacPorts package (or to
provide some other packaging solution fo rthe Mac), problems like the
one Kate reports will continue and the MacPorts package will
eventually become useless.
If no one is willing to volunteer for this responsibility, then I am
afraid that the answer to an email like Kate's is that Demeter is
simply unsupported on the Mac and that she is on her own.
That seems like a shame. But as I said in my earlier email, I do not
own a Mac, so I am unable to provide specific support for that
platform.

Dear all,
I was wondering whether anyone had tried installing the software on the
new Mac OS (10.10 Yosemite)? Everything seems to work fine initially. I
installed Macports and checked it installed correctly. At least when I
test various commands, it seems to work. The sudo port install
xorg-server demeter-devel command ran for about 3 hours until it quit. I
tried restarting, but whenever I run the command, the following error
message appears:
---> Computing dependencies for xorg-server
---> Cleaning xorg-server
---> Computing dependencies for demeter-devel
---> Configuring demeter-devel
Error: org.macports.configure for port demeter-devel returned: configure
failure: command execution failed
Please see the log file for port demeter-devel for details:
/opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_science_demeter/demeter-devel/main.log
To report a bug, follow the instructions in the guide:
http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets
Error: Processing of port demeter-devel failed
I will post the log file at the bottom of the email. The last 8 lines
are as follows:
portbuild::add_automatic_buildsystem_dependencies
:debug:clean No need to upgrade! p5.16-term-twiddle 2.730.0_1 >=
p5.16-term-twiddle 2.730.0_1
:debug:clean epoch: in tree: 0 installed: 0
:debug:clean p5.16-text-template 1.460.0_1 exists in the ports tree
:debug:clean p5.16-text-template 1.460.0_1 is the latest installed
:debug:clean p5.16-text-template 1.460.0_1 is active
:debug:clean Merging existing variants '' int
Would anyone be able to help me with this? Any advice would be useful.
Thanks for your time.
Best,
Kate Davis
