Hi again, thanks everyone for the help, but now I've got some more  
problems:(

I'm on Mac 10.4.10, just installed macport1.5.0. but when i tried to  
install cairo i got:

jing-tangs-computer:~ Jing$ sudo port install cairo
Error: Error executing darwin_8: invalid command name  
"configure.compiler"
Error: Unable to execute port: Error evaluating variants

I looked online and found someone saying he got the same problem and  
after updating the problem was solved. so i tried to update macport  
by port selfupdate, but i got:

jing-tangs-computer:~ Jing$ sudo -u root port selfupdate

Error: /opt/local/bin//port: selfupdate failed: Couldn't sync the  
ports tree: sync failed doing rsync

could anyone give me some ideas please? thanks very much!!!
