Thanks for your help



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.

It said something like "error could not fetch ..."
it seemed it could not retrieve the sources from any of the servers, and the installation stopped.
so I used "sudo port install" again and it fetched it OK



I changed my permissions on  /users/maxime  recursively.

What did you change permissions to?

The message was telling you to change ownership (not permissions) of ~/Library/Preferences/KDE (not of ~).

I changed ownership and permissions as RW

after your mail I checked what is in /Preferences/KDE and there was a link to "tmp-macbook-pro-de-maxime.local" but then it says the original file is missing, dead link.



but for the first one this is what I get:

Last log in: Mon Aug  2 17:09:36 on console
macbook-pro-de-maxime:~ maxime$ launchctl load /Library/ LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist
nothing found to load
macbook-pro-de-maxime:~ maxime$

This whole dbus business baffles me, and I'm not sure if the above is normal or if it is the source of the problem you're having. 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.

this is what I get:

03/08/10 18:36:26 [0x0-0xa50a5].org.kde.amarok[2423] <unknown program name>(2423)/ mac_initialize_dbus: warning: unable to initialize D-Bus environment! 03/08/10 18:36:26 [0x0-0xa50a5].org.kde.amarok[2423] Dynamic session lookup supported but failed: launchd did not provide a socket path, verify that org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist is loaded! 03/08/10 18:36:26 [0x0-0xa50a5].org.kde.amarok[2423] <unknown program name>(2423)/: KUniqueApplication: Cannot find the D-Bus session server: "Not enough memory" 03/08/10 18:36:26 com.apple.launchd[126] ([0x0-0xa50a5].org.kde.amarok[2423]) Exited with exit code: 255

yes, it looks like dbus is part of the problem.

(by the way, since I now have macport, is it possible to have Dolphin running on Mac?)
