For each port you find that fails to install, please search the
issue tracker to see if it has already been reported. If it has,
check the ticket to see if there's a patch. If there is, try it
out. If it works for you, say so in the ticket so we'll know we
can commit the patch. If there's no patch but a workaround, that
might let you bypass the problem as well. If there's no ticket
filed, please file one.
Thanks for this information but I am afraid I have to ask some more
questions.
How do I search the issue tracker? Each time I try and follow the
link to any error reporting, it asks for a username and password
that I have not received.
You'll have to sign up for an account in the issue tracker if you
want to file new tickets or add comments to existing ones, but you
should be able to just search without logging in. Go to http://
www.macports.org/ and click Support & Development in the left
navigation. Then click View Tickets in the top navigation. Then click
Custom Query over on the right. Then select Summary from the Add
Filter menu. Then type your search string into the text box and click
Update.
To register for an account or log into an existing one, click
Register or Log In at the top right of any issue tracker page.
