You aren’t attaching the log, you’re attaching a transcript of your MacPorts terminal session. The log is the file mentioned just before the list of dependencies at the end:

/opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_lang_libcxx/libcxx/main.log

Please attach this file.

This is very curious.

  1. Your MacPorts installation cannot resolve the hostnames of any of our archive mirrors. Is your system behind a firewall or proxy?
  2. Ordinarily, MacPorts simply builds ports from source if it cannot fetch binary archives; your installation is just failing. Have you edited your macports.conf file to change this behavior? What does this command return?
    grep buildfromsource /opt/local/etc/macports/macports.conf

  1. I use a proxy at work but not now.
  2. In response to your request, here the answer
    #buildfromsource     	ifneeded

I’m stumped. This doesn’t look like a problem with demeter or libcxx to me; I think something else is awry.

I suggest posting to macports-users to see if someone can help debug this; you’ll reach a wider audience there than with this ticket.

All right. Thanks for the help anyway. TH

I ended up loading the following dependency files manually: libcxx; libffi; llvm_select; llvm-3.8; cctools; gmp; isl; ld64-latest; mpfr; ifeffit. Finally, I was able to install demeter. For gmp and ld64-latest, it did not work the first time so I had to clean the port and try again. So, the problem is solved. Thanks again. TH
