[yeroslaviz@…]

I am trying to install pkgconfig and keep getting stuck at the cairo. I am using macports 2.3.3 for Mac OS 10.10 I have already tried to clean and reinstall cairo several times. Here is the last log file after the last try:

I would be happy for help.

Why does this file already exist on your system? Who or what put it there, since MacPorts does not think it did?

If you don't know, the safest solution is to uninstall all ports, and MacPorts itself, and remove /opt/local (after making copies of any configuration files or other files you wish to save), then reinstall MacPorts and the ports you want. That way, you can be sure /opt/local does not contain any files that should not be there.

Alternately, you can force the activation of cairo by running:

sudo port -f activate cairo

However, if you cannot explain why some of cairo's files were already on you system, who knows how many other ports' files are already on your system, unbeknownst to MacPorts, which may cause you further difficulties down the road. Simpler and safer to solve the problem the right way by removing MacPorts now, then reinstalling.

thanks, this is what I did and it works great.

I was able to install the pkgconfig and Gtk2 library without a glitch.

Thanks for the help.

Assa

PS the ticket can be closed
