    v1 v2  
    3030kencu,
    3131while I was waiting for a reply to my last comment, I decided to install two other programs, cmus, then terminator. Initially, both failed with the same error: " command execution failed". At the time, I was using mp-gcc44. So then, I returned to the installation of qhull separately. I uninstalled mp-clang-3.4, only to have it reinstall as a dependency of either qhull or freecad. The next morning, I retried cmus after switching back to gcc42 and it installed with no errors and works perfectly. I retried terminator and gtk3 failed to install with the same error that was discussed in Ticket #52468. On that ticket, kencu asked, "why was he using clang34?". Once clang was installed, macports must have set it as default, because I didn't. I'm going to finish reading this ticket throughly, and hopefully, it may contain information to help solve both problems since clang is present during both compilations. I followed the one of the instructions on that ticket; installed switch to gcc6 and using the compiler argument with port. Qhull, gtk3 and terminator finally installed but getting terminator to run from the command line shows errors that I will address later.
    32         So, then I returned to the installation of freecad. Now, there is a problem with py27-shiboken. Over the past six month, I have tried to freecad on this g5 and an emac, both running leopard using macports-2.3.5 and the installation has always stopped at py27-setuptools or py27-shiboken. but not qhull One of the errors was so dumbfounding that I gave up on macports and tried fink, homebrew, and several ppc distro, including freebsd. "Error: py27-shiboken could not be installed because py27-shiboken was not installed". Eventually, I realized that I should stick one method instead of jumping around, I came back to macports and decided to enlist the help of macports trac. Before proceeding, should I file a new ticket for py27-shiboken or should it be left together for anyone trying to install freecad in the future if my efforts are successful. My apology, if this post isn't too long. Gregory
