I filed this as Ticket #18408 because the attachments were too long for
the list to accept.
I tried to upgrade mercurial today, but the upgrade gets into a situation where
it wants to install ports that are already installed and that are not outdated
and ports that are installed and depenedences that are not the latest versions
but are according to the mercurial port file acceptable.
I have tried a number of ways to get the install to work beginning with 'port
upgrade mercurial', next 'port -n upgrade mercurial', 'port -fn upgrade
mercurial' and 'port -f upgrade mercurial'
In all cases, I either get to a place where some dependency of a dependency
will not uninstall because it is required for other ports and the whole thing
fails, or I get to a place where gettext (which I know is up to date) keeps
being refetched, re-everything, fails to re-install and MP either fails or
tries again.
Here is what 'port installed' and 'port outdated' say before I try to upgrade:
grendel% port installed mercurial
The following ports are currently installed:
mercurial @0.9.5_0
grendel% port outdated mercurial
The following installed ports are outdated:
mercurial 0.9.5_0 < 1.1.2_0
grendel% port installed gperf
The following ports are currently installed:
gperf @3.0.3_0
grendel% port outdated gperf

grendel% port installed bzip2

grendel% port installed zlib
The following ports are currently installed:
zlib @1.2.3_2
grendel% port outdated zlib

grendel% port installed python25
The following ports are currently installed:
python25 @2.5.2_1+darwin_9
grendel% port outdated python25

grendel% port outdated expat
No installed ports are outdated.
grendel% port installed libiconv
The following ports are currently installed:
libiconv @1.12_2
grendel% port outdated libiconv
No installed ports are outdated.
Here are some captures of the output from the commands. There are a number of
cannot find receipt errors below, but when I search the
/opt/local/var/macports/receipts directories, I find what looks like receipts
for those ports:
grendel% ll /opt/local/var/macports/receipts/libiconv/1.12_2/
total 4
