Description (last modified by jmpalacios (Juan Manuel Palacios))

libcompat-4.6.2-RELEASE does not seem to uninstall on OSX10.3.1, with a latest cvs snapshot (11/ 18/03). Once uninstalled with port, it still remains in the 'port installed' list. If you try to reinstall it after doing an uninstall and clean, you get:

sudo port install libcompat Password: ---> Fetching libcompat ---> Verifying checksum for libcompat ---> Extracting libcompat ---> Configuring libcompat ---> Building libcompat with target all ---> Staging libcompat into destroot Error: Target com.apple.install returned: Port libcompat already registered as installed.

please email me with any questions, or comments that would make this, or future, report(s) more helpful.

I've seen this with other ports, I think the steps to reproduce go something like this:

  1. Install a port
  2. cvs update your dports directory and get a portfile for a newer version of a port
  3. realize that there is a newer port available
  4. uninstall the port (receipt is not removed, but port is)
  5. Attempt to install the new port and notice the error

Workaround: remove the old receipt.

I'll see if I can verify this.
