Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))
The root directory of my MacPorts install resides in my user directory. When I use build Gimp, it errors out with the following information:
Error: org.macports.activate for port dbus returned: error renaming "/Users/mike/macports/var/macports/software/dbus/mpextractD7sWHyg3/Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist" to "/Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist": permission denied Error: Failed to install dbus Please see the log file for port dbus for details: /Users/mike/macports/var/macports/logs/_Users_mike_macports_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_devel_dbus/dbus/main.log
I have attached the referenced log file. Could the build be modified to be flexible enough to accomodate macport userdir installations?

Try selecting the no_root variant and/or deselecting the startupitem variant. I don't know if the port could be modified to do so automatically when appropriate.
$ port variants dbus dbus has the variants: no_root: Run the DBUS daemon as MacPorts install user. [+]startupitem: Install startup files. test: enable tests universal: Build for multiple architectures

Just attempted to build dbus with +no_root and it errored out with:
Error: The DBUS daemon should not be run as root. Error: org.macports.fetch for port dbus returned: Please do not use this variant with your MacPorts configuration.
Thank you for your help. I will install the pre-built version available on their website.

For the record, this was the build command:
iMac:bin mike$ ./port install dbus +no_root

Apologies for not acknowledging this earlier.
Is it still an issue?
