cdo @1.6.6_1 install error due to missing dependencies

Reported by: arfay@… Owned by: macports-tickets@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.3.3
Keywords: Cc:
Port: cdo

Description (last modified by larryv (Lawrence Velázquez))

I am attempting to download port for the first time and it seems to have gone well except when I try to install cdo it gives me error saying that all the required dependencies are not there file:///opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_textproc_libiconv/libiconv/main.log

I have XCode 4.5.2 and have tried the suggested "configure.compiler..."

When I do port installed I only get:

  expat @2.1.0_0 (active)
  libiconv @1.14_0 (active)

which is not all that I need for cdo!

In all that I read it seems that port should pre-load all the dependencies for cdo to be installed but that isnt happening. I'm thinking I need to uninstall and re-install but Im open to suggestions. I'm a novice at all of this but I followed the directions closely and have checked for all updates and made sure my command line is installed on Xcode and all those extra things.
please help!

I tried it and the first command gave me an error about my Xcode installation. I have xcode on my machine but obviously something is not connecting it. Any suggestions?

By doing sudo xcode-select -switch /Applications/Xcode.app/ I was able to run the first command without an error. I tried to install cdo again but got this error: Error: org.macports.activate for port ncurses returned: Image error: /opt/local/bin/captoinfo already exists and does not belong to a registered port. Unable to activate port ncurses. Use 'port -f activate ncurses' to force the activation. Error: Failed to install ncurses

I uninstalled the whole thing, did all the updates I could find for Xcode, etc and then re-downloaded. It seems to have worked this time. Thank you for your help.
