Installing redland-bindings

[dcguim (Dan Guim)]

I`m try to install this port (redland-bindings) but first I got the error saying I had to choose a variant, so after listing the vatiants I guessed python25 would be a good one, once I running Mavericks which uses python 2.5.

So I`m just running:

$ sudo port install redland-bindings +python25

These are all the flavors of errors I got in the /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_www_redland-bindings/redland-bindings/main.log:

Please attach the entire main.log file.

Mavericks ships with Python 2.7.6. However, it does not matter what version of Python the OS comes with, since MacPorts will not use it and will instead install a copy of its own, so you may feel free to use whatever version of Python with redland-bindings that you wish. Unless you have a specific reason to prefer the older python25, you should use python27.

You`re right, what I really meant was 2.7.5. which the Mavericks I just installed came with.

But thanks for the tip. I`ll try to run with the +python27 variant.

It worked, thanks a lot!
