Description (last modified by larryv (Lawrence Velázquez))
Hey folks,
I would really like to install Git on Mac OS X 10.4. Everything works fine until it tries to install kerberos5 at which point it fails.
There's been some discussion about this here but it doesn't seem to be resolved.
I'm not using Kerberos for my Git installation so I (naively) think I can just skip this step and see if the rest of the build works.
Is there any way to skip a pre-requisite package? If so, how can I alter this command?
Any help would be very much appreciated. I bought an old cube as a single-purpose writing machine and having Git is pretty important. Yes, I realize this OS is ancient and won't cry if it just can't be done.

No, there’s no way to do this without modifying the portfile.
That said, git
does not have kerberos5
as a dependency. Are you trying to install git +svn
? That requires subversion
, which requires cyrus-sasl2
, which has a default +kerberos
variant.

What command will grab all the relevant logs you need? It's a virgin machine but I'd rather not post all of my logs for security reasons.
BTW, I'm running 10.4.11 Xcode 2.5 -- the latest of each version that will run on the system.
Thanks so much, @larryv. Stoked to know this might just work!

Well first we need to know how you’re attempting the install. What is the exact port
command you’re running?

Never mind, spoke too hastily. git
does depend on p5.24-authen-sasl
, which depends on p5.24-gssapi
, which depends on kerberos
.
This is not really about git
, it’s about kerberos5
. Since that is the core problem, you should should ping #46701 and try to get that resolved. That ticket seems to have a patch that just has not been applied.
I didn't have a problem installing it.
I did this months ago, and might have done a few tricks to get 'er done. If you post up your failure logs, perhaps I can help you recreate what I did.
If you get really stuck, I can probably put a binary up for you somewhere. --- K
