Hi,
I have decided to re-install OSX from installation DVD. I have re-installed
XCode, and MacPorts 1.5 from source.
I have been able to install ports like wget, after whole reinstallation
process .
I have also re-installed all OSX updates, after that.
BTW, when I tried to install rb-rails after all above, I had issue but "sudo
port -fn upgrade rb-rubygems" did the trick, as
Boey Maun Suang mentioned in " Re: problems with port that use ruby
gem to install." post on June 11, 2007.
Regards,
Shigeto
