Grace @5.1.25_2 and Openssl

[sau1978]

I recently got a MacbookPro (10.13.6, High Sierra) and tried to download Grace @5.1.25_2 using Macports 10.5.4 Unfortunately, I am having issues with installing as it indicates openssl not found. I then tried to install openssl and got a similar error.

$ sudo port install grace @5.1.25_2
--->  Computing dependencies for grace
Error: Dependency 'openssl' not found.
Error: Follow https://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets to report a bug.
Error: Processing of port grace failed

$ sudo port install py27-openssl
--->  Computing dependencies for py27-openssl
Error: Dependency 'openssl' not found.
Error: Follow https://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets to report a bug.
Error: Processing of port py27-openssl failed

Can someone tell me if the port is bad or if I need to install an alternate openssl?

Thank you, Sau

It looks like openssl doesn't exist in your ports tree (or at least the index) for some reason. It should be there. Do you get any errors when you run sudo port sync?

$ sudo port install grace @5.1.25_2

Note that MacPorts will ignore the @version_revision information you specify here. It can only install the version and revision of the port that is currently in MacPorts (which happens to be @5.1.25_2 at this time).

I went back and synced the port and subsequently installed grace and it worked - thanks so much!
