dbus activation problem caused by leftover files from ancient macports install

[Lars Sonchocky-Helldorf]

Hi,

trying to install inkscape I got the following error:

Error: org.macports.activate for port dbus returned: Image error: /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist already exists and does not belong to a registered port.  Unable to activate port dbus. Use 'port -f activate dbus' to force the activation.
Warning: targets not executed for dbus: org.macports.activate
Error: Failed to install dbus
Please see the log file for port dbus for details:
    /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_devel_dbus/dbus/main.log

Error: Processing of port inkscape failed

I could activate dbus using: 

sudo port -f activate dbus

but I got the following warning:

Warning: File /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist already exists.  Moving to: /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist.mp_1361736070.
Warning: File /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.freedesktop.dbus-system.plist already exists.  Moving to: /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.freedesktop.dbus-system.plist.mp_1361736070.

This might be caused by the fact I had a very outdated macports installed before (from 10.4 something) which I wasn't able to upgrade. So I removed everything manually but did not look into /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/

Is there a way to uninstall everything from an ancient macports install?


cheers,
