Just run macports as root, I generally do this:sje wrote:It appears that the link to MacPorts xboard is:
https://trac.macports.org/browser/trunk ... d/Portfile
and it's currently unreachable.
The originating reference is at:
https://www.macports.org/ports.php?by=c ... agesize=50
The dependencies are given as:
cairo glib2 gdk-pixbuf2 gettext librsvg pkgconfig xorg-libice xorg-libsm xorg-libX11 xorg-libXaw xorg-libXmu xorg-libXt xpm
Are these automatically loaded/installed with something like apt-get? Do they use the X Window support on OS/X 10.7 (this version is important to me)? How do they work under OS/X 10.10 which doesn't have native X Window support?
port self update
then
port upgrade outdated
Anything you have installed will be updated to the most recent.
To install xboard:
port install xboard
and sit for a minute or two. I have also installed gcc 4.8, and quite a few other things like wine, csh, you-name-it...
