Ryan and friends,
I really love the MacPorts community. Really, I mean that. It's one of the
most enjoyable groups of people even though we have never met in person and
even though we each contribute in different ways. Thank you to everyone for
the various contributions and for making MacPorts way
Ryan,
A follow-up question if you don't mind (I had to walk away from the computer
to think and then come back to this). In the example you gave of:
The dependency is declared like this:
depends_build \
bin:gperf:gperf
That means if a binary (the bin part) called gperf (the first gperf

MacPorts 1.6.0.)
This is already available in 1.6.0, but it was not documented.
For libraries, I'm not sure where the code is that searches,

I am having trouble with my Ruby installation from MacPorts.
This is what I have installed:
Installed Versions:

Mozilla is pretty old. Try installing kazehakase with the seamonkey variant.

Hi All,
Once again, the latest security patch 2008-003 for Tiger broke our Apache 2
installation by replacing apachectl. Earlier posts on this topic are

You and I have hacked in the vendor's playground, and it's our problem

I think we all agree on this.

I most definitely am not blaming Apple for this and apologize for a
misleading subject line. I am just trying to alert users who might be in the
same boat. You apply a security patch and your web server goes wonky, it's

Yes. I also would appreciate a clear HOWTO for that kind of thing,
being new
to Macs and already missing the simple (and sometimes simplistic) /
