clamav-server: missing file

[papadil]

When installing clamav-server I get the following error:

--->  Patching org.macports.clamd.plist: s|^<key>ProgramArguments</key>|<key>UserName</key><string>root</string>\
<key>GroupName</key><string>_clamav</string>\

Error: reinplace: couldn't read file "/opt/local/etc/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.clamd/org.macports.clamd.plist": no such file or directory
Error: Failed to activate clamav-server: reinplace sed(1) failed

The installation failed to create the org.macports.clamd directory in /opt/local/etc and copy the plist file there.

I do not observe this issue:

sudo port -s install clamav-server
port provides /opt/local/etc/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.clamd/org.macports.clamd.plist
sudo port -s destroot clamav-server
ls /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_sysutils_clamav-server/clamav-server/work/destroot/opt/local/etc/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.clamd/org.macports.clamd.plist
sudo port clean --all clamav-server

I'd recommend doing a clean --all and trying again. If it fails agin, please post logs. This plist creation is handled by startupitems , so it's pretty hard to mess up.

[jmroot (Joshua Root)]

The Portfile doesn't appear to handle the case where startupitem_type is set to none. But of course that isn't a very useful setting to use if you want to use this particular port.

[papadil]

Good catch there - that was my issue. I set it to none as I do not want ports to add startup items willy-nilly. Changed it to default and startup_install to yes and it worked. Apologies for the noise.

[papadil]

Spoke too soon, for whatever reason it did not create symlinks in /opt/local/etc. They are in subdirectories. Perhaps there is something else I should have set??

[papadil]

Meant to say "/opt/local/etc/LaunchDaemons" above.
