I'm glad to hear this.
Also this message is a bit long... :)
> In your reply you mention rebuilding popplerqt4. How is that done?
The easiest way to rebuild a port is "sudo port -f uninstall portname"
followed by "sudo port install portname".
The "-f" flag is necessary if the port is a dependency of another
port, as in this case.
If you want to rebuild all ports that may be involved in this issue, try this:
$ sudo port -f uninstall py27-python-poppler-qt4
$ sudo port -f uninstall py27-pyqt4
$ sudo port -f uninstall py27-sip
$ sudo port -f uninstall poppler
$ sudo port -f uninstall frescobaldi
$ sudo port -f uninstall frescobaldi-devel
Maybe you have multiple versions of these ports installed (previous
deactivated versions).
In this case MacPorts will report an error, asking to specify exactly
which port you want to uninstall.
E.g. let's say that you have this situation:
$ port installed name:sip
The following ports are currently installed:
py27-sip @4.15.1_0
py27-sip @4.15.2_0 (active)
MacPorts will report this:
$ sudo port -f uninstall py27-sip
---> The following versions of py27-sip are currently installed:
---> py27-sip @4.15.1_0
---> py27-sip @4.15.2_0 (active)
Error: port uninstall failed: Registry error: Please specify the full
version as recorded in the port registry.
In this case you actually want to uninstall only the active version,
so you will reissue the uninstall command specifying the version:
$ sudo port -f uninstall py27-sip @4.15.2_0
Do this for each port that has multiple versions.
After you have successfully uninstalled all those ports, install
poppler with the requested variants:
$ sudo port install poppler +qt4 +quartz
Then you can install Frescobaldi again with
$ sudo port install frescobaldi
or
$ sudo port install frescobaldi-devel
or
$ sudo port install frescobaldi-devel +app
This will make MacPorts reinstall also Frescobaldi's dependencies.
Technically it is not necessary to uninstall Frescobaldi and reinstall
it, nor to uninstall each of these ports, but this is the simplest way
to achieve what we want.
Let me know what happens.
Best wishes. Davide
