Re: a2ps fails to install (compressed log attached)
Hi; I modified the portfile using 'sudo edit a2ps' simply replacing '/usr/bin/makeinfo' with '/opt/local/bin/makeinfo' and tried to install again. I see one thing in the new log: /bin/sh: /usr/bin/makeinfo: No such file or directory I wonder why that is? I also see some failed attempts to test syntax/usage of makeinfo (?) showing some kind of incompatibility. I have attached the new log file (bzip2 compressed).

gv apparently silently fails to install properly
Hi; I recently uninstalled and re-installed gv. There were no errors that I saw during the install (source code build forced with "-s"). Yet, when I try to invoke gv, I get a what looks to be a linkage error: /opt/local/bin/gv -v dyld[7999]: symbol not found in flat namespace '_yylex'' Thanks, Ken Wolcott

Re: evince post install launch tweaks help needed
Thank you all for the help. I removed xQuartz from the homebrew installation. I then installed org-server using MacPorts. I logged out and logged back in. When running evince with a Postscript file I still get the flashing and I get the following: dbus[66621]: Dynamic session lookup supported but failed: launchd did not provide a socket path, verify that org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist is loaded!

Re: evince post install launch tweaks help needed
oops, probably want to add sudo port install xorg-server so, altogether, sudo port install xorg xorg-server; sudo port load dbus Log out.

Re: evince post install launch tweaks help needed
I just went through this on Mountain Lion and Mojave. I believe it's sudo port install xorg Installs XQuartz X11.app in /Applications/MacPorts but I think also may need to sudo port load dbus and log out and back in again. IMO, Homebrew is a bloody mess. Good luck uninstalling it. Probably easier to reformat and reinstall the system. I don't understand the attraction to it. It's an exceptionally poor implementation of a package management system. > On Dec 18, 2022, at 23:46, Kenneth Wolcott wrote: > > Hi; > > I running MacPorts with MacOS Ventura 13.1 w/ M1 CPU. > > I had previously installed evince but was getting periodic flashing > on-and-off when trying to view a postscript file. > > So I re-installed evince from source and the following is the output > from the install.
