Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))

Hello. I successfully installed macports on my computer (Mac OS X 10.10.4), but when I run the self update I get an error. I then ran:

$ sudo port -d selfupdate

and got the following:

DEBUG: Copying /Users/pongo/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dt.Xcode.plist to /opt/local/var/macports/home/Library/Preferences

I saw something similar to this on another ticket, but I couldn't figure out the solution. Could someone help? Overall, I need to use macports to install ATLAS 3.10.2, so any suggestions on doing that would be great too.

Duplicate of #49233.

The available solution for updating MacPorts sources today is to sync with svn instead of rsync. The available solution for updating MacPorts base (if you are running a version earlier than 2.3.4) is to download and run the installer from our web site.
