Hi,

So what exactly have you run ?

Please run

sudo port install xorg-server

in a terminal, and if you still have problems post *exactly* what the above gives.

Hello,
I'm trying to figure out how to install Inkscape. I tried to follow the instructions, but I am really confused. I think that I installed XCode, agreed to the  Xcode license in Terminal, and Install MacPorts for my version of the Mac OS (macOS Mojave v10.14). On this page <https://www.macports.org/install.php#requirements> it says that there's an optional step: "The X11 windowing environment for ports that depend on the functionality it provides to run. You have multiple choices for an X11 server". I tried to install the xorg-server port from MacPorts (recommended), however I couldn't figure out how to do this? I got to this page <https://ports.macports.org/port/xorg-server/summary> but there's no Download or Install button?

How do I install X11 and then ultimately install Inkscape? I just want to edit a vector and this is all very confusing.

Thanks in advance for your help.
