 macport
 I am an OpenERP developper and I need libreoffice on my macbook by port.

 reason for that might be that libreoffice appears to be a very large
 software package, and they already provide pre-compiled Mac binaries. It
 might be a great deal of effort to reproduce that work in MacPorts, and
 I'm unclear what would be gained by doing so. The same might be said about
 OpenOffice.org. Why not just use the binaries they already provide?
 The opener module that I need (report_aeroo) use the package debian
 python-uno, the package need the compilation on the libre office package
 port. can you help me to make ports for setup libreoffice and python-uno

 > The last line of your log shows it checking for the existence of the
 10.4 SDK. The 10.4 SDK doesn't exist on recent versions of Xcode, so if
 they require the 10.4 SDK, that won't work on recent Xcode versions.
