Done.

No problem at all with this morning's update; it did build a bit more than 
usual, but that's probably normal anyway.

Thanks.

Sure, you can copy (not rename) macports.conf.default to macports.conf, if 
you've made no changes in macports.conf that you want to keep.

Well, I've never made any changes (as I said, I don't know my way around 
MacPorts yet), so I should be safe in merely renaming them?

And anyway, what then?  Force a massive rebuild somehow, or will it happen 
all by itself?

I thought I'd followed the instructions when going to Yosemite (it was the

You should probably migrate any relevant changes from macports.conf.default to 
macports.conf every time you upgrade MacPorts, as described in the Migration 
instructions, section 2 a.

Re: yosemite and 2008/9 macbookpro compatability, macports install settings for older architecture?

[^. .^]

ok. so it works now.

i did 2 things.
first i set the universal to also include x86_64
tried again and no luck

then i went through the entire migration steps and now i'm up and running.
i hadn't installed macports in my last 2 os upgrades so i wasn't thinking i
had to migrate.
but i guess it was left over from very first os on the machine when i used
it a bunch. so i thought it was gone but obviously it was not. thanks for
all the help, sorry for not doing that step to begin with.


thanks!

Hmmm...  I've never touched macports.conf in my life (because I won't know 
what I'm doing), but I see this:

-rw-r--r--  1 root  admin  5787 Dec  1  2010 macports.conf
-r--r--r--  1 root  admin  8248 Nov 22  2014 macports.conf.default

The first would be the original Snow Leopard file, and the second would be 
Yosemite (with attendant differences in default build architectures).

Am I in trouble?  I've had no problems with ports.

No; the MacPorts default build_arch is x86_64 on Yosemite, but the user can 
override it by changing build_arch to i386 in macports.conf. In this case, the 
user probably didn't meant to do that, he just imported a pre-Snow Leopard 
Intel MacPorts installation onto his Yosemite Mac, and should now fully follow 
the Migration instructions to set things right.

OP is on Yosemite. MacPorts defaults to x86_64 builds on Yosemite.

Are there ways to that other than requesting a +universal build of it, or of 
another port which has ImageMagick as its first dependency?

I must have assumed that the OP would have found the universal_archs setting in 
macports.conf if he wanted to install a universal variant...

MacPorts tries to remedy architecture mismatches by building dependencies 
+universal.

So the OP is trying to build ImageMagick x86_64. Its dependency libtool is 
already installed, but its architecture is unsatisfactory. MacPorts tries to 
fix this by rebuilding libtool +universal, but it notices that universal_archs 
doesn't contain "x86_64" and bails out.

You probably migrated this MacPorts installation from an older machine,
which still used 32-bit as default build architecture.

After reinstalling MacPorts as recommended by the migration procedure,
please compare your macports.conf against the macports.conf.default. You
will find both files in /opt/local/etc/macports/ after installing the
latest MacPorts version.

Most probably you even want to replace the macports.conf entirely with
the default options unless you made any changes on purpose.

Was he doing a universal build? ImageMagick doesn't have +universal as a 
default variant, so I don't see why one would need universal_archs if one just 
wants or needs to build the entire tree in 32bit mode ...

You may have to edit macports.conf again and set "universal_archs x86_64 i386".

Was MacPorts present on the machine when you upgraded to Yosemite? If so, then 
you should follow the migration instructions. If not, you don't have to.

Does it have a 64bit processor?

Apparently MacPorts was configured for 32bit only when you installed it, but 
somehow ImageMagick wants to be built for 64bit only.
I don't see anything in the Portfile that causes that, so maybe it's 
ImageMagick itself that enforces that choice.
You'd probably need to file a ticket on trac for that.

yosemite and 2008/9 macbookpro compatability, macports install settings for older architecture?

[^. .^]

hey all,

i recently upgraded a late 2008 macbookpro to yosemite. with SSD it seems
to work ok.

when running macports to install software i get the following error


 Error: Cannot install ImageMagick for the arch(s) 'x86_64' because
 Error: its dependency libtool is only installed for the arch 'i386'
 Error: and the configured universal_archs 'i386 ppc' are not sufficient.
 Error: Unable to execute port: architecture mismatch



I found the macports.conf file and uncommented
build_arch   i386

and i cleaned all. but the error remains the same. this machine did not
have macports on it last time around so i did not follow the whole list of
migration commands. but should i?

or what else am i missing?
