The other two jpeg and zlib, contain only the default platform x86_64. The workaround to build jpeg and zlib packages alone and then the tiff metapackage doesn't work either. That's the error: {{{ sudo port mpkg tiff +universal ---> Computing dependencies for tiff ---> Creating pkg for tiff-3.9.4 ---> Package for tiff-3.9.4 is up-to-date Error: Requested variants """" do not match original selection ""+universal"". Please use the same variants again, perform 'port clean jpeg' or specify the force option (-f). Error: Requested variants """" do not match original selection ""+universal"". Please use the same variants again, perform 'port clean zlib' or specify the force option (-f). }}} Using the force option nothing changes (same error). Cleaning the packages they are rebuilt with default platform only (x86_64) without any error or warning reported. In the macports.conf file is told to build all three paltforms x86_64 i386 and ppc (universal_archs x86_64 i386 ppc). If possible, I'd like to know any workaround. Best regards, Luca Severini " defect closed Normal MacPorts 2.0.0 base 1.9.2 fixed
