It should not have been necessary to "sudo port install" more than once. If you tell us more about the dependency problems you encountered perhaps we can fix that. > then I got: > > ########################################################## > # Don't forget that dbus needs to be started as the local > # user (not with sudo) before any KDE programs will launch > # To start it run the following command: > # launchctl load /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist > ########################################################## > ###################################################### > # Programs will not start until you run the command > # 'sudo chown -R $USER ~/Library/Preferences/KDE' > # replacing $USER with your username. > ###################################################### > > I changed my permissions on /users/maxime recursively. What did you change permissions to?

After launching /Applications/MacPorts/KDE4/Amarok.app in the Finder by double-clicking it, I'd double-click /Applications/Utilities/Console.app and look for error messages. _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users
