​Clean facter and try again.

[ian@…]

Tried that before posting:

sudo port clean facter
sudo port clean puppet
sudo port clean ruby
sudo port uninstall --follow-dependents ruby
sudo port install puppet

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Then please attach the new main.log. The one you attached before was not from a clean build.

[ian@…]

Sorry for that. I've just rerun the above commands, and attached the resulting main.log.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

The error in the log is:

/opt/local/bin/ruby: No such file or directory

This surprises me since /opt/local/bin/ruby should be provided by the ruby port and the facter port does declare a dependency on the ruby port.

Is the ruby port installed? If not, install it ("sudo port install ruby")

Does /opt/local/bin/ruby exist? If not, what does the ruby port contain? ("port contents ruby")

[ian@…]

$ ls /opt/local/bin/ruby*
/opt/local/bin/ruby1.8

[ian@…]

It looks like all the bin files have "1.8" tacked on to the end of their names.

[ian@…]

Checking in to see if there is any other information I can provide on this issue?

Cc Me!

Can you update your macports and try again - from your main.log you're trying to install facter-1.6.2; we up to 1.7.6

I'm not sure forcing 1.8 is a good idea

destroot.cmd        ${prefix}/bin/ruby1.8 ${worksrcpath}/install.rb 

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Invalid because you were trying to install an old version of facter; with the current version, it should have worked. Run "sudo port selfupdate" regularly to keep up to date.
