Hello,
I’m trying to write a local portfile that compiles and sets up a project hosted
on github.
To test my portfile, I’ve initialised a local repository in /Users/account
_name/Documents/macports, followed the standard hierarchy and indexed my
package via portindex command. All of these things went OK.
But I can’t install my package via ‘port install’ because MacPorts throws me
the following error:
“Unable to execute port: Could not open file: /Users/…/Documents/macports/…
/Portfile”
I have the file in that directory, I can open and write it. So I don’t know
what the problem is.
Permissions are all set to macports:macports 755, both directories and files;
port lint doesn’t find any error related to Portfile; I have sources.conf with
my local repository.
I tried to debug the install command. Here’s the output:

Thanks for your helpful advice!
