dbus "no_root" fails to install — at Version 1
| Reported by: | ocroquette (Olivier Croquette) | Owned by: | mcalhoun@… |
|---|---|---|---|
| Priority: | Normal | Milestone: | |
| Component: | ports | Version: | 2.3.3 |
| Keywords: | Cc: | ||
| Port: | dbus |
Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))
Command: "port install dbus +no_root", with the target directory in my user directory
The first error is:
error renaming "/Users/user/bin/macports/var/macports/software/dbus/mpextractNk3f1e8H/Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist" to "/Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist": permission denied
A workaround is to set startupitem_install no in macports.conf
The second error is:
:debug:activate Backtrace: could not set group for file "/Users/user/bin/macports/var/run/dbus": not owner
(at that point however, the port is already activated, so it's possible to install other ports that depend directly or indirectly on dbus)

The first error is expected, in that it is known that you cannot install files into root-owned locations like /Library if you are not root, so you should ask MacPorts not to attempt to do so. To do that, you should set
startupitem_install noin macports.conf as you already discovered. This is not specific to the dbus port.I'm not certain about the second issue.
