#42339: Failed to install ghostscript
---------------------------+--------------------------------
 Reporter:  daniel.miau@…  |      Owner:  macports-tickets@…
     Type:  defect         |     Status:  new
 Priority:  Normal         |  Milestone:
Component:  ports          |    Version:  2.2.1
 Keywords:                 |       Port:  ghostscript
---------------------------+--------------------------------
 I was not able to install ghostscript (using the command sudo port install
 ghostscript) on two Macs (both OSX 10.9.1). I checked the error log and
 find the following line strange (please also see the attached error log):

 ----------------------
 :debug:extract Executing command line:  cd
 "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_private_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_print_ghostscript/ghostscript/work"
 && /usr/bin/gzip -dc
 '/opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/ghostscript/ghostscript-9.10.tar.gz' |
 /usr/bin/tar -xf -
 ----------------------

 The -dc option of gzip seems to decompress the package to standard output
 as opposed to the file system, is it something expected?

 I have tried to manually decompressed the package located at
 '/opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/ghostscript/ghostscript-9.10.tar.gz'
 and the package seems to be ok.

 The sudo command gives the permission to write to the directory
 '/opt/local/var/macports/build/_private_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_print_ghostscript/ghostscript/work'
 too.
