[Wine] Re: Few Questions

[doh123]

As to your question, Macports has to access and download source code from many places, including sourceforge, so it can build it... so yes you need to let it download.

also

current Macports does not need to be run as root, and some things break if you sudo it, so something might be wrong with your installation.

This is beyond the help of this message board since its not a Wine issue.. but...

do a...

sudo port selfupdate

and make sure its all up to date.

Are you on an admin user account... or the same account that installed Macports?  its install location (/opt/local) might be off limits to your current user.

you can do this command with a sudo to fix the folder if its messed up...

sudo chmod -R 777 /opt/local

because its supposed to be full read/write
