Hi,
I am using a computer without root access, thus I have my own local
macports installation. I compiled Macports from sources with the following
options:
PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/sbin ./configure \
--prefix=/mn/xsan/d9/jaime/ports \
--enable-readline \
--with-install-user=`id -un` \
--with-install-group=`id -gn` \
--x-includes=/usr/X11R6/include \
--x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib \
--with-tclpackage=/mn/xsan/d9/jaime/ports/share/macports/Tcl \
--with-frameworks-dir=/mn/xsan/d9/jaime/Applications \
--with-applications-dir=/mn/xsan/d9/jaime/Library \
--with-no-root-privileges \
--with-macports-user=`id -un`
In general I have managed to compile almost every package that I needed
successfully until I tried with python2.7. It compiles fine, but when the
port is being activated, it complains about not having access to
/Applications (which should not be used at all!):
---> Activating python27 @2.7.1_1
Error: Target org.macports.activate returned: can't create directory
"/Applications/Python 2.7": permission denied
I would appreciate any help regarding this issue!
Cheers
