sudo port update outdated doesn't work on Snow Leopard

[turci@…]

Hi.

I've recently updated to Snow Leopard and i was trying to install eog with port. To do so i first tried to update my outdated packages but i have the following output:

Warning: Skipping upgrade since openssl 0.9.8k_0 >= openssl 0.9.8k_0, even though installed variants "" do not match "+darwin". Use 'upgrade --enforce-variants' to switch to the requested variants.
Warning: Skipping upgrade since readline 6.0.000_1 >= readline 6.0.000_1, even though installed variants "" do not match "+darwin". Use 'upgrade --enforce-variants' to switch to the requested variants.

Did you follow the ​migration procedure?

Replying to macsforever2000@…:

Did you follow the ​migration procedure?

After your suggestion, i folllowed the procedure and made a new fresh install of macports. But, for example, installing geany i get the following stuff:

Error: Target org.macports.activate returned: Image error: /opt/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.9/darwin-2level/auto/Getopt/Long/.packlist already exists and does not belong to a registered port.  Unable to activate port p5-getopt-long.

What's the problem?

You clearly have left over files from the old installation. I would recommend starting from scratch at this point. ​Remove macports entirely using the rm command and then reinstall. Otherwise, you can simply force the installs. i.e. sudo port -f install geany

[turci@…]

i unistalled macports with the follofing commands:

sudo rm -rf /opt/local \
/Applications/MacPorts \
/Applications/DarwinPorts \
/Library/Tcl/macports1.0 \
/Library/Tcl/darwinports1.0 \
/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.* \
/Library/StartupItems/DarwinPortsStartup \
/Library/Receipts/MacPorts*.pkg \
/Library/Receipts/DarwinPorts*.pkg \
~/.macports

i installed gnuplot, and it worked. I tried to install another package (i choose DateLine) but i got this error, which i think is in any case related to Snow Leopard, isn't it?

Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command "cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_aqua_DateLine/work/DateLine" && xcodebuild  -alltargets -configuration Deployment build OBJROOT=build/ SYMROOT=build/ MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.6 ARCHS=x86_64 SDKROOT= " returned error 1

Sorry for the trial and error succession....

That is a problem with the Dateline port. Please file a new ticket for it and post the complete error output.
