 Hi,I installed macport on my desktop which I do not have root access. The
 configure I used is:

 ./configure --prefix=/Users/wen/macport --with-no-root-privileges --with-
 install-user=wen --with-macports-user=wen --with-install-group=nogroup

 after installing MacPort, I tried to use it to port cmake and qt5, but it
 can not find cmake:

 hollyhock:bin wen6$ port install cmake

 Error: Port cmake not found

 It happens to others too, qt5, vim...

 I tried to update the tree, but I get the error:

 hollyhock:bin wen6$ port sync

 --->  Updating the ports tree

 Error: Synchronization of the local ports tree failed doing rsync

 port sync failed: Synchronization of 1 source(s) failed

 Can you help me so I can use MacPort?
