Hi,
MacBook Pro, OS X 10.5.6
I am trying to install couchdb using macports (haven't used macports
before). I have been getting hung up on:
$ sudo port install couchdb +server
Password:
---> Fetching readline
---> Attempting to fetch readline-5.2.tar.gz from ftp://ftp.cwru.edu/pub/bash/
I have also tried to install readline directly and it still hangs:
$ sudo port install readline
Password:
---> Fetching readline
---> Attempting to fetch readline-5.2.tar.gz from ftp://ftp.cwru.edu/pub/bash/
I have been trying this since yesterday afternoon.
I see some messages that talk about --with-readline and --without-
readline. Is the answer here somewhere? I didn't want to just guess
what to do with these, but can't find the actual answer.
On my system, I see:
/opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/readline/readline-5.2.tar.gz.TMP
(but since it is hanging, never finishes)
I searched my entire hard drive for readline and see several
locations...
Any ideas how I can resolve this?
thanks,
-Rob
