Description
Hi, just wanted to bring up the fact that rxvt-unicode tries to put some files under /usr/share/terminfo/72/rxvt-unicode. Shouldn't it put these under ${prefix}/share/terminfo/ ? The error line itself is :
---> Fetching rxvt-unicode ---> Attempting to fetch rxvt-unicode-8.1.tar.bz2 from http://dist.schmorp.de/rxvt-unicode/ ---> Attempting to fetch rxvt-unicode-8.1.tar.bz2 from http://dist.schmorp.de/rxvt-unicode/Attic/ ---> Verifying checksum(s) for rxvt-unicode ---> Extracting rxvt-unicode ---> Configuring rxvt-unicode ---> Building rxvt-unicode with target all ---> Staging rxvt-unicode into destroot ---> Installing rxvt-unicode 8.1_1+darwin_8 ---> Activating rxvt-unicode 8.1_1+darwin_8 Error: Target com.apple.activate returned: error copying "/opt/local/var/db/dports/software/rxvt-unicode/8.1_1+darwin_8/usr/share/terminfo/72/rxvt-unicode" to "/usr/share/terminfo/72/rxvt-unicode": permission denied Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.

Hi, Thanks for the comment. Well, I think the ports using Apple's ncurses should of course be fixed but I see your point. I just wanted to make sure this wasn't an oversight, but I should have read the Portfile to see if it was intentional ;) Closing as wontfix then!

Hi,
Well.., "this isn't a bug but a feature." ;-)
When I recently updated rxvt-unicode, I modified it to install its own terminfo file into /usr/share/terminfo/ as well as ${prefix}/share/terminfo/ just in case since some ports seemed to be using Apple's ncurses library. (r21182)
