I was working since may on a project for which I had to keep the macports tools stable (no updates during the duration of the project). After the end of the project, I'd like to go back to a clean state to ease documentation of the various steps that lead to the realization of a project and limit interactions. And also to reduce unnecessary tools that could stay on a drive years after their last usage. >> :error:main Failed to install m4 >> :debug:main >> /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_devel_m4/m4: >> too many open files > > Too many open files...

I alway have a lot of open applications on my machine (mail, safari, contacts, calendar, note, messages, itunes, terminal, textmate, libreoffice, dictionary, translation dictionary) plus Apache (from server.app) and standard Apple processes, but haven't encounter the max open file limit for years until this morning. I closed all my apps, restarted and tried again to install a port and get the same result. As previously if I clean the port which installation just failed and install it again, then the install succeed. With only terminal.app launched I nevertheless have more than 5k open files, as reported by lsof and before using macports. It seems to me that the problem is in part with Mavericks and in part with Macports. I'll do some more tests to narrow the problem. Perhaps last Mavericks update lowered the max open file per process limit. > To be honest I am having similar problems on one of my Mavericks machines > still running 2.2.1 but my problems began after an improper shutdown and I > was assuming some kind of OS corruption and was planning on reinstalling the > OS when I have some time, so please let me know what the solution turns out > to be for you.
