    initial v1  
    55You need to be fairly facile with MacPorts to make a go it. You need to know how to hold back a port update when an upgrade fails, using your own local repository. You need to know how to run a rev-upgrade and let it fix things, and when to stop it from fixing something. And you need to know when the problem you're seeing is from MacPorts, the port update, or something you did.

    7 And you need to be thick-skinned enough to occasionally get that wrong, and have somebody pound on you for wasting their precious time -- guaranteed, that will happen too.

    9 So if that works for you, welcome to the mix, and we appreciate having you around.

    117For a start, look in the MacPorts guide, find the section on setting up a local repository, and set yourself up an empty one. Then clone my github TigerPorts repo perhaps, and copy in the meson port from there, and uninstall the meson you have, and install the one I fixed. Maybe after that, copy over the ati-* ports as well, and see if they install for you.
