[psarge@…]

The texlive port is unable to find a package to download and compile.

Assigning to maintainer.

fix

[jmroot (Joshua Root)]

The files have been moved into a new subdirectory. They're also on the OpenBSD mirrors now, so we might as well try them first.

[jmroot (Joshua Root)]

Since this problem renders the port unusable and the fix is quite simple, I went ahead and committed it in r35506.

[erickt@…]

This isn't working for me. Does it work for anyone else?

[jmroot (Joshua Root)]

The old directory is back and the new one has been removed. Go figure.

Also, some but not all of the files seem to have a new version number, 2007g0. There is no 2007 version available on the OpenBSD mirrors for those files.

[jmroot (Joshua Root)]

I updated the bournemouth URL again in r35602. I'll leave it to milosh to figure out what if anything to do about the g0 versions.

[psarge@…]

I've just re-tried the install.

As expected by the above comments it falls through to the bournemouth URL, with all the other mirrors failing. It does build and install now though.

[milosh@…]

The g0 distfiles correspond to this line in the openbsd cvs repository:

• maintainer made new distfiles with fixed updmap.cfg files

I'm going to try and build the new version and update the port.

[milosh@…]

Updated to g0 distfiles in r35960.

I'd like to have this ticket reopened. I am having the same problem on a brand new installation of Leopard on a Mac Mini.

[jmroot (Joshua Root)]

If you're really seeing the same thing as in the original report, your ports tree is way out of date and you need to sync.

[blb@…]

​http://students.dec.bournemouth.ac.uk/ebarrett/texlive/distfiles/ appears to have both 2007 and 2007g0 distfiles, so if this is an issue for anyone, you either have a firewall causing issues or the server may have been unavailable at the time.

Replying to aronnax@…:

I'd like to have this ticket reopened. I am having the same problem on a brand new installation of Leopard on a Mac Mini.

Do you still have this problem? Have you tried the '-d' option to get information? Is ypur macports dport tree up to date? If it is, it should not try to download texlive_texmf-minimal-2007.tar.gz as in the bug report but texlive_texmf-minimal-2007g0.tar.gz...

[milosh@…]

Now that macports 1.7 is out, and as the distfiles for texlive_* are on macports distfiles mirror, this issue should be solved, no?

[milosh@…]

The reopen requester does not reply. The bug is unconfirmed. Closing.
