[Hugs-users] installation failed on macosx

[Bob Harris]

Howdy,

Tried to install HUGS for the first time, using DarwinPorts.  My
machine is an intel iMac running OSX 10.4.8.  I have used DarwinPorts
before, and I updated it to the latest version before attempting to
install HUGS.

I followed the instructions on http://hugs98.darwinports.com/ , except
that I changed them per the fact that my ports are stored in
/opt/var/local/db/pports instead of the
/opt/local/bin/portslocation/dports shown in the instructions.

My first attempt to install HUGS took something like 20 minutes as it
downloaded and built dependent packages.  I had used the -d option to
port which showed me too much info, but one of the last things it
showed me was "---> cleaning hugs98", and the suggested commands such
as "man hugs98" fail, so I conclude that it didn't install properly.
Subsequent attempts (sudo port -d install hugs98) give me the detail
shown at the end of this message.  I am particularly suprised by
"Requested variant darwin is not provided by port hugs98".

The path .../dports/sources/rsync.rsync.darwinports.org_dpupdate_dports/language/hugs98
exists on my machine.  If I delete it and attempt to reinstall, will I
see anything different?

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks for any help,
Bob H
