Hi,
For getting help on this I thought it best to join the list. In the past I made
some software for iOS and for years I did nothing on mac and now I want to
teach myself python. For that I was installing a IDE, that did not go as it
should and from there I came to the conclusion that a update of macports would
be a good idea.
My system a mbp 3.1 with osx 10.7.5
first macports would not upgrade because I had an old xcode installed 3.2.1
So I upgraded that one to 4.6.3 and installed the command line tools
First problem was with ncursesw and found a workaround for that:
sudo port -f uninstall ncursesw @5.7_1
then sudo port update outdated worked until it came to ImageMagick
Error: org.macports.configure for port ImageMagick returned: autoreconf
failure: command execution failed
Please see the log file for port ImageMagick for details:
/opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_graphics_ImageMagick/ImageMagick/main.log

macje-2:~ jelbertholtrop$ sudo port upgrade outdated
then it hung on groff
sudo port clean groff
sudo port -d update outdated

and then it sits there with no activity forever
At this point I wonder if it would not be better to uninstall macports, as
discribed
http://guide.macports.org/chunked/installing.macports.uninstalling.html, and
also the old \developer framework from xcode 3 and install everything again?
Would this also remove all python stuff?
Thanks,
Jelbert
