I don't have Sonoma, nor Ventura up at the moment, but on Monterey, /usr/X11 is a symlink to /var/select/X11, which is another symlink.
In my case, since I have the macosforge.org <http://macosforge.org/> Xquartz installed, it's a symlink to /opt/X11. That is of course not the macports version, which seems to have parts in /opt/local/etc/X11 /opt/local/lib/X11 /opt/local/include/X11 /opt/local/share/X11 /opt/local/bin On any of the locked down OS versions (Monterey or later at least), one probably can't change /usr/X11, but can probably change /var/select/X11 . Something built without using macports would presumably tend to expect /usr/X11 or /usr/local/X11. > On Oct 7, 2023, at 11:29, Chris Jones <jon...@hep.phy.cam.ac.uk> wrote: > > > >> On 7 Oct 2023, at 4:25 pm, Tao Zhang <tzhang0...@gmail.com> wrote: >> >> Hi Chris, >> I am using time machine to transfer them from a Mojave Macbook pro to the >> present Sonoma machine. >> Is there a new version of X11 that can be installed into /usr/X11? > > Not provided by macports, no. > > I do not recommend what you are doing above as having anything in /usr/local > is not supported by macports > > https://trac.macports.org/wiki/FAQ#usrlocal > <https://trac.macports.org/wiki/FAQ#usrlocal> > > Remove what you are putting in these locations and instead just use the > macports versions > > > sudo port install grads xorg-server > > Chris >> >> Thanks >> Tao >> >> >> On 10/7/23 9:16 AM, Chris Jones wrote: >>> Hi, >>> >>> /usr/local and /usr/X11 are not locations macports will install anything >>> into, so you are not using a macports provided build of grads. >>> >>> You should remove everything from these locations, and then install instead >>> macports grads port.
