Hello, I wasn't sure whether I was suppose wait for something to be done that was suppose to be done, or install the patch, so I decided to install the batch, and, the following happened after downloading what I thought to be the proper patch: --------------------------------------------------------------------- % cd `port dir mp4v2` % pwd /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/ports/multimedia/mp4v2 % sudo patch -p0 < ~/mp4v2-1.9.1-libversion.patch Password: can't find file to patch at input line 4 Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option? The text leading up to this was: -------------------------- |diff -Nru ../mp4v2-1.9.1-orig/GNUmakefile.in ./GNUmakefile.in |--- ../mp4v2-1.9.1-orig/GNUmakefile.in 2009-07-14 02:25:44.000000000 +0300 |+++ ./GNUmakefile.in 2009-10-10 11:12:15.000000000 +0300 -------------------------- File to patch: --------------------------------------------------------------------
This was my first attempt at installing patches, so I probably did something wrong. Further guidance will be greatly appreciated!

Please remove this make and anything else in /usr/local; it will probably interfere and cause problems sooner or later. If you need a newer make, install it with MacPorts using the gmake port (on which the ffmpeg port already depends, FYI). > Now, to Ryan, > > I followed Frank's guidance to install 1.8.2, which I have installed, over > 1.7.

No, that's fine. Note that "port uninstall" uninstalls (and "port install" installs) ports, not the MacPorts base infrastructure. To uninstall the MacPorts base infrastructure, should you ever want to do so, instructions are in the guide: http://guide.macports.org/chunked/installing.macports.uninstalling.html > My problem now is that I received an Error when I tried sudo port install > faac which I then reexecuted with the -d flag and saved the output.

I have not yet looked at it to see why this has not yet been committed to the ports tree. _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users
