Installing PlayerStage on Mac OS X 10.5

Installing PlayerStage on Mac OS X 10.5

First thing, install macports from the  macports website.

Next, do a selfupdate...

8:09:38pm nima@datis:/opt% sudo port selfupdate
Password:

MacPorts base version 1.700 installed
Downloaded MacPorts base version 1.700

The MacPorts installation is not outdated so it was not updated

I've already update mine so it may look a little smaller than your output.

Now, make sure that macports has it's own python and uses it...

9:13:03pm nima@datis:local%  sudo port install python_select && sudo python_select python25
--->  Fetching python_select
--->  Attempting to fetch select-0.2.1.tar.gz from http://distfiles.macports.org/python_select
--->  Verifying checksum(s) for python_select
--->  Extracting python_select
--->  Configuring python_select
--->  Building python_select
--->  Staging python_select into destroot
--->  Installing python_select @0.2.1_0+darwin_9
--->  Activating python_select @0.2.1_0+darwin_9
--->  Cleaning python_select
Selecting version "python25" for python

If you don't do this, you may bump into  bug 18891.

Finally, install the two components of playerstage...

9:13:08pm nima@datis:local% sudo port install playerstage-player +x86_64
--->  Building playerstage-player
--->  Staging playerstage-player into destroot
--->  Installing playerstage-player @2.0.4_0
--->  Activating playerstage-player @2.0.4_0
--->  Cleaning playerstage-player
9:16:07pm nima@datis:local% 

...and...

9:13:08pm nima@datis:local% sudo port install playerstage-stage +x86_64
...

Next, make sure that you have the rgb.txt file in place...

9:41:39pm nima@datis:assign1% sudo ln -s /usr/X11/share/X11/rgb.txt /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb.txt

That's it.
