I just decided I should probably check on the status of my macports install and got the following...
==================<cut here>============ sudo port selfupdate ---> Updating the ports tree ---> Updating MacPorts base sources using rsync MacPorts base version 1.8.2 installed, MacPorts base version 1.9.2 downloaded. ---> MacPorts base is outdated, installing new version 1.9.2 Installing new MacPorts release in /opt/local as root:admin; permissions 0755; Tcl-Package in /Library/Tcl Error: /opt/local/bin/port: port selfupdate failed: Error installing new MacPorts base: shell command "cd /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/base && ./configure --prefix=/opt/local --with-tclpackage=/Library/Tcl --with-install-user=root --with-install-group=admin --with-directory-mode=0755 --enable-readline && make && make install" returned error 1 ==================<cut here>============ Something I did, or is something broken? Don't see anything obviously wrong. When I check /opt/local from my id (not su), I noticed that "/opt/local/man" is a link which for some reason is giving me a "Permission denied. ls: ./man: Permission denied 4 lrwx------ 1 root admin 9 Feb 12 2010 ./man even though /opt/local/share/man is fine...
