Hi folks, Just a nudge to say that I submitted a patch to update GNU Solfege a little over a week ago: http://trac.macports.org/ticket/22022 The changes to the portfile itself are straightforward, though I also submitted a couple patchfiles. They work fine for me, and I'm pretty sure I made th

Thanks! So what I need to do is: 1) uninstall all the ports I installed with the default settings (portautoclean yes and portarchivemode no) 2) set "portautoclean no" in ${prefix}/etc/macports/macports.conf 3) also set "portarchivemode yes" in the the same file 4) run "port mdmg solfege" (no

Hi folks, I submitted a port a little over a week ago (http://trac.macports.org/ticket/18870 ), but no one has committed it or commented on it yet. No big hurry, but in someone else's earlier ticket (http://trac.macports.org/ticket/18220 ), Rainer suggested that people nudge this list in suc
