Latest binary

[Henrietta1989]

Is this latest version, if not, where i can download latest binary?

https://github.com/diimdeep/afsctool/files/1504128/afsctool.zip

[RJVB]

You'd have to as the owner of the repo, @diimdeep .

I don' provide binaries in my repo, just the source. I do however provide a MacPorts ports tree that contains a port:afsctool that strives to install the latest stable release: https://github.com/RJVB/macstrop .

[Henrietta1989]

I installed PortAuthority and MacPorts but if i search for afsctool, it only finds brkirch.wordpress.com/afsctool/ 1.6.4 version.

I try to install your version or any other afsctool which works best in Mojave. Thanks

[RJVB]

Please follow the instructions from the macstrop README (go to the macstrop project page on github and scroll down). You need to tell MacPorts to use the macstrop ports tree if you want to see my version of port:afsctool . Note that the port doesn't yet include the latest changes on here; I'm waiting for more tester feedback.

If you want the latest version you can install the dependencies through MacPorts and then build the afsctool sources as instructed here.

[Henrietta1989]

So i need to do this part of Readme:

%> sudo -u macports git clone --depth=1 --no-single-branch http://github.com/RJVB/macstrop.git /opt/local/site-ports

(the --depth and --no-single-branch options are optional of course.)

Then, edit ${prefix}/etc/macports/sources.conf (${prefix} is where MacPorts is installed; by default it's /opt/local). Towards the end of the file, add a line above the line that has [default] at the end:

file:///opt/local/site-ports

and save the file. If you do not want this repository to be updated automatically whenever you do port selfupdate or port sync, you'll want to add [nosync] at the end of the line you added.

Now, do

%> (cd /opt/local/site-ports ; portindex)

and the new ports will be available.

I have default settings in both MacPorts and PortAuthority.

sudo -u macports git clone --depth=1 --no-single-branch http://github.com/RJVB/macstrop.git /opt/local/site-ports

fatal: could not create work tree dir '/opt/local/site-ports': Permission denied

This might be too complicated for me to install. Do you think there is other afsctool compatible with Mojave which is easy to install? Thanks

[RJVB]

OOps, you found an error in the README instructions! Can you try with these updated instructions?

%> sudo git clone --depth=1 --no-single-branch http://github.com/RJVB/macstrop.git /opt/local/site-ports
%> sudo chown -R macports /opt/local/site-ports

This makes sure that the resulting tree will be readable by the "macporst" user. (The --depth and --no-single-branch options are optional of course.)
To update the tree later on, use
%> sudo -u macports git -C /opt/local/site-ports pull

[Henrietta1989]

No error this time, but if i search using PortAuthority, still it shows only brkirch 1.6.4.

Any RSS-feed which updates when you update afsctool?

Does the path change? I used this earlier:

sudo /usr/local/bin/afsctool -ckl path/here

[RJVB]

I have no experience with PortAuthority, but it should behave the same as the port terminal command. Of course you will need to follow the entire instruction set. In particular you have to add /opt/local/site-ports to sources.conf on a line before the default source, and run portindex in /opt/local/site-ports.

I've never tested, but in principle the tree in /opt/local/site-ports should be updated when you run port selfupdate, as long as you don't tell MacPorts NOT to do that (so no nosync keyword on the site-ports line in sources.conf).

[Henrietta1989]

If i run this:

(cd /opt/local/site-ports ; portindex)

These are last rows in Terminal window:

Adding port x11/xvisbell error renaming "/tmp/mports.portindex.FSbgu5HU" to "/opt/local/site-ports/PortIndex": permission denied while executing "file rename -force $tempportindex $outpath" (file "/opt/local/bin/portindex" line 329)

And PortAuthority still don't find it.

[RJVB]

Thanks for your patience with this, I appreciate the feedback from someone who is not an experienced developer or Unix user! I've clearly been assuming too much that potential users of my ports do have that kind of experience.

The chown command you executed earlier changed the ownership of /opt/local/site-ports to the "macports" user. Simplifying things a bit, that means that every command that modifies anything inside that directory has to executed as that user, i.e. with sudo -u macports in front of the command.

So:

%> (cd /opt/local/site-ports ; sudo -u macports portindex)

I've looked at the README a bit more, there should be no other commands that need this same prefix. GIven why you installed my ports I would advise against following the instructions concerning the git hooks; those may become relevant if ever you want to install other ports but they're not required for installing just afsctool.

[Henrietta1989]

I did this: (cd /opt/local/site-ports ; sudo -u macports portindex)

I can see afsctool 1.6.9.8 in PortAuthority. I then tried to install it using PortAuthority.

PortAuthority installed it 1-2 hours and it Pinged 76 different servers for some reason.

In end of log was this and it says afsctool failed:

sparsehash/internal/hashtable-common.h x ./opt/local/include/sparsehash/internal/sparseconfig.h ---> Cleaning sparsehash ---> Removing work directory for sparsehash Error: Follow https://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets to report a bug. Error: Processing of port afsctool failed ---> Some of the ports you installed have notes: libpsl has the following notes: libpsl API documentation is provided by the port 'libpsl-docs'.

Then Kernel Panic.

PortAuthority don’t list it in Installed window.

Now if i try to install again using PortAuthority:

--> Computing dependencies for afsctool. . .

---> Dependencies to be installed: cmake libcxx

Error: Follow https://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets to report a bug. Error: Processing of port afsctool failed

[RJVB]

PortAuthority installed it 1-2 hours and it Pinged 76 different servers for some reason.

I would have to see the full log to figure out why that is, but between the required git, sparsehash and cmake there are quite about 70 dependencies to install. It does not explain why it took so long; is PortAuthority configured to build everything from source? What kind of computer are you running this on?

You can attach the log file here, but you would probably have to add ".txt" to the filename.

Then Kernel Panic.

Did you really get a kernel panic, i.e. did you have to reboot the machine? If so that is something you really should report on trac.macports.org!

---> Dependencies to be installed: cmake libcxx

You should not be needing libcxx if you are running "Mojave"!

Please try without PortAuthority. As I said, I don't know it, and I have no idea how well maintained it is (e.g. if it works correctly on the latest Mac OS). In a terminal, do

%> sudo port clean afsctool %> sudo port install afsctool

If that succeeds, fine. If not, please try a clean install

%> sudo port -u -f uninstall active %> sudo port clean afsctool %> sudo port install afsctool

[Henrietta1989]

It was kernel panic. MacBook Pro Retina. Mojave.

Did this take as long as it did with PortAuthority?

Still, we got further now. With a bit of luck the output from the following command will help me understand the problem:

%> sudo port -vd install afsctool

Just copy the output here, there shouldn't be too much now.

OKKKK, I think I understand now. There was probably a dependency conflict in my version of ports cmake and libcxx which resulted in them not installing correctly:

The following dependencies will be installed: cmake libcxx Continue? [Y/n]: y DEBUG: dlist_eval: all entries in dependency list have unsatisfied dependencies; can't process Error: Follow https://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets to report a bug. Error: Processing of port afsctool failed

This is a good time to try if

%> port selfupdate

works without errors. If all is well you should see that it pulls new versions into /opt/local/site-ports . It may give a permissions error, in which case you'd have to do the sudo -u macports prefix trick (and tell me about it!)

Afterwards,

%> port info cmake libcxx

should show that cmake no longer depends on libcxx and that libcxx no longer depends on cmake. If that is not the case, please tell me, and do

%> sudo -u macports git -C /opt/local/site-ports pull

Afterwards, do

%> sudo port clean cmake libcxx

just to be sure, and then do

%> sudo port install afsctool

If that fails again, then please repeat the earlier command to get output:

%> sudo port -vd install afsctool

Thanks again for your patience! I hope you appreciate learning a little bit more about this kind of computer usage ;)

[RJVB]

Oh my.

I do this so infrequently myself that I forgot that it is indeed the official way to do this with elevated privileges (https://www.macports.org/install.php). So my bad, you have to do

%> sudo port -v selfupdate

(sudo -u macports foo executes a command "foo" as the macports user, while sudo foo executes that command as the "superuser", aka root.)

[Henrietta1989]

For some reason i didn't get notification for your above post at all.

sudo port -v selfupdate

Last rows of log:

--> MacPorts base is already the latest version

The ports tree has been updated. To upgrade your installed ports, you should run port upgrade outdated

[RJVB]

--> MacPorts base is already the latest version

OK, that suggests that updating of 3rd party repositories doesn't work, or maybe never worked.

So, you'd have to follow the instructions for updating macstrop manually:

%> sudo -u macports git -C /opt/local/site-ports pull

this should some a list of updated files (which in themselves probably won't mean much to you). Note that this git command must run as the macports user because /opt/local/site-ports is still owned by that user.

Then, follow the advice you saw:

%> sudo port upgrade outdated

And then ... try again to install afsctool as shown before.

[Henrietta1989]

Should i now run sudo port upgrade outdated and then install...

Yes...

[Henrietta1989]

I did now sudo port upgrade outdated but not sure anymore what install instructions to use?

Just this?

sudo port install afsctool

[RJVB]

Sorry, yes.

If ever that fails again then do

%> sudo port -vd install afsctool

to get the relevant failure output directly.

BTW, if you do

%> sudo -u macports git -C /opt/local/site-ports describe

you should see this as output: KF5.Plasma-5.10.2-1731-g448bc8ce

Building cmake row takes really long:

sudo port install afsctool Password: ---> Computing dependencies for afsctool The following dependencies will be installed: cmake Continue? [Y/n]: y ---> Fetching distfiles for cmake ---> Attempting to fetch cmake-3.12.3.tar.gz from https://cmake.org/files/v3.12/ ---> Attempting to fetch cmake-3.12.3.tar.gz from https://distfiles.macports.org/cmake ---> Verifying checksums for cmake
---> Extracting cmake ---> Applying patches to cmake ---> Configuring cmake ---> Building cmake

[RJVB]

on my 2011 MBP it takes about 20 minutes I think. I'm a bit surprised it would build from source for you but there must be an explanation for that. The good news is that it shouldn't be required very often.

[Henrietta1989]

First it failed then i think it worked. Last is "fatal: No tags can describe".

This is strange, but can have been a temporary network glitch.

Home:~ Henrietta$ sudo -u macports git -C /opt/local/site-ports describe fatal: No tags can describe '448bc8ce88ed453cd6ddd3e1bff610057ad47ab2'. Try --always, or create some tags.

Ah, well that's fine too.

So now you should be able to run afsctool :)

[Henrietta1989]

Yes it works now perfectly!!! Thanks!!!

Did all that install any not needed stuff i could clean out using some CLI magic?

[RJVB]

Great! Thanks for your patience!

You can clean up whatever there's left to clean up with

%> sudo port clean --all installed
