and mdmg

 Reporter:  jaakko.pero@…       |      Owner:  macports-tickets@…
     Type:  defect              |     Status:  new
 Priority:  Normal              |  Milestone:
Component:  ports               |    Version:  2.1.3
 Keywords:  PackageMaker space  |       Port:
--------------------------------+--------------------------------
 For example, if there's a line like this:

 {{{
 packagemaker_path /opt/Auxiliary\ Tools/PackageMaker.app
 }}}

 in macports.conf, then for example the execution of port -d mpkg zlib
 simply stops after these lines:

 {{{
 --->  Creating pkg for zlib-1.2.8
 DEBUG: Can't run pkg on this port without elevated privileges. Escalating
 privileges back to root.
 DEBUG: euid changed to: 0. egid changed to: 0.
 }}}

 WORKAROUND:

 If the directory is renamed and the line on macports.conf is changed to:
 {{{
 packagemaker_path /opt/AuxiliaryTools/PackageMaker.app
 }}}

 Then the execution of continues as expected:

 {{{
 --->  Creating pkg for zlib-1.2.8
 DEBUG: Can't run pkg on this port without elevated privileges. Escalating
 privileges back to root.
 DEBUG: euid changed to: 0. egid changed to: 0.
 DEBUG: Calling
 /opt/AuxiliaryTools/PackageMaker.app/Contents/MacOS/PackageMaker for zlib
 pkg
 ...
 }}}
