 I have been using the port boxes for a year or so and it had been working
 great. Since I upgraded to Lion it seemed to have stopped working. It
 built and installed just fine, but no matter how I call it I always get
 "boxes: Bad address" in return. The only commands that work were "boxes
 -v" and "boxes -h". I am wondering if other people are seeing the same
 thing, or is it just me.

 Originally I posted this question to the MacPorts mailing list
 (http://old.nabble.com/boxes-not-working-in-Lion--td32686644.html) and
 Ryan Schmidt suggested


 {{{
 If you have Xcode 4.2 maybe it doesn't like being compiled with clang; try
 llvm-gcc-4.2:

 sudo port clean boxes
 sudo port uninstall boxes
 sudo port install boxes configure.compiler=llvm-gcc-4.2

 If you have Xcode 4.1 maybe it doesn't like being compiled with llvm-
 gcc-4.2; try gcc-4.2:

 sudo port clean boxes
 sudo port uninstall boxes
 sudo port install boxes configure.compiler=gcc-4.2

 }}}

 However, I tried both of them and they resulted in the same behavior.

 I am on 10.7.2 with Xcode 4.1 and have updated everything on macports just
 yesterday.
