Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))

Hello,

This is my second attempt to install Geeqie. I did a full MacPorts uninstall using the instructions from your site. My process was as follows:

  1. install MacPorts using your installer.
  2. Install py312-setuptools which was an issue with my first install. (#69111)
  3. Run the Geeqie installer.

I showed all hidden files in Finder and was unable to find the folder references below...I even do some manual search but to no avail. So I have copied all Terminal Commands that I executed and they are attached.

Error: Failed to activate gnome-desktop: command execution failed
Error: See /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_gnome_gnome-desktop/gnome-desktop/main.log for details.

Of note, on my first install, I was able to install Geeqie successfully, it is noted in my first ticket. However, the application never launched and since the ticket was closed after I was referred to the ticket to install "py312-setuptools." I added a brief screen video, but received no response so did did the uninstall/clearn reinstall today. That said, I would appreciate that ticket be kept open until I confirm that it is working. It may take a day or two, but I'm used to closing my own tickets with vendors who I work with during my job.

Thanks, Jim

Description: modified (diff)

We close tickets when we fix them, and we only keep one ticket open for a given issue, so since your build failure was a duplicate of another ticket, we closed it in favor of the earlier one, and the earlier ticket closed when its fix was committed to the repository.

We use one ticket per issue, so when, after resolving the build failure, you encountered a new problem, that needed to go in a new ticket, so we'll use this ticket to track that issue now, although I guess there are two new issues: the failure to launch and now, after reinstallation, the failure to activate.

Normally, /opt/local/var/macports is hidden in the Finder. You can press Command-Shift-Period in the Finder (or use other means) to see hidden items, but you also don't need to do that. To attach the log you can also just copy the full logfile path to the clipboard, then click "Attach another file" and "Choose File", and in the file chooser, press Command-Shift-G to bring up the Go panel, paste in the logfile path you copied, press Return twice, and click "Add Attachment".

Note: See TracTickets for help on using tickets.
