> The vlc port no longer builds vlc;
[changeset:ddd6f4336c9cb206f76bc438e355a929425676b0/macports-ports now] it
just installs a binary. As you see, it tries to install 3.0.11.1, but the
last version that worked on 10.5 was 2.0.10, so this is not going to work.
The reason it's failing is probably that the disk image format it's using
is too new for your OS.
Thank you. I expected it to try building VLC, which turned not the case.
(As a matter of fact, lack of support does not necessarily imply that
given software won't build: for instance, only R 2.x is supported for
PowerPC, however the latest R 4.1.2 does build for ppc32 and works.)
