I know that I can start a build with the "-v" or maybe "-d" flag
to see
more info, but I'm specfically wondering if there's a log file
somewhere
for the non-"-v" case (for example, for a simple "port install
gcc42")
that I can look at while the build is running.
No, there's no such option (no such log file).
This is what I do:
1) sudo port install whatever > ~/whatever.install.log 2>&1
2) Ctrl+Z
3) open ~/whatever.install.log
4) fg
The end result is that I have Console.app open with the log file
while port is running in the Terminal.
