Ports Crowd,

Using PortAuthority(v2) I tried installing GD2, the  first time  
through there were a bunch of errors at the end,  I clicked in  the  
log pane and tried a Cmd-A in order to select the log contents and to  
my amazement lost the  entire log. It turns out Cmd-A is used to  
select all the  ports. So much for the log. Today after speaking to  
Kevin, the author he pointed out the disk icon that saves the log. I   
should have spent more time getting familiar  with the interface...

I restarted the machine, and tried installing gd2_noX11, which was  
successful.

Today I  tried  installing GD2 again in order to send the log, and  
this time it appears that all of yesterday's errors are no longer  
there, however the last few lines in  the Port Authority Log  showed  
the following:

/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 'gdfontt.h' '/opt/local/var/db/dports/ 
build/ 
_opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.darwinports.org_dpupdate_dp 
orts_graphics_gd2/work/destroot/opt/local/include/gdfontt.h'
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 'entities.h' '/opt/local/var/db/dports/ 
build/ 
_opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.darwinports.org_dpupdate_dp 
orts_graphics_gd2/work/destroot/opt/local/include/entities.h'
--->  Installing gd2 2.0.34_0
--->  Activating gd2 2.0.34_0
Warning: the following items did not execute (for gd2):  
com.apple.activate

Any ideas how  to fix this problem ?
