installing kile-devel on mac os 10.6.5

[David Rappoport]

Hi Folks,

I just migrated from linux and would like to install kile on my mac
(natively will be better, but at this point making it work is good enough).
I have tried several things with no luck. I am no expert user, but coming
from linux I don't mind jumping to the terminal to run some command. Hope
you guys can help me out. Here is what I did.

To install I used

# sudo port install kile-devel +quartz +qt4 +no_x11

I followed the instruction after installing and did:

# launchctl load /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist
(initially I got "nothing found to load" but now I get "Already loaded")

# sudo chown -R rapa ~/Library/Preferences/KDE

Diagnostic using "ps auxwww | grep dbus" gives:
rapa 126 0.0 0.0 2446912 724 ?? S 6:47PM 0:00.00
/opt/local/bin/dbus-daemon --nofork --session
messagebus 51 0.0 0.0 2435448 704 ?? Ss 6:47PM 0:00.01
/opt/local/bin/dbus-daemon --system --nofork
rapa 733 0.0 0.0 2435548 0 s000 R+ 7:59PM 0:00.00 grep
dbus

Finally trying to run kile I get the following error (without sudo no error
but does not run either)

# sudo /Applications/MacPorts/KDE4/kile.app/Contents/MacOS/kile
Dynamic session lookup supported but failed: launchd did not provide a
socket path, verify that org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist is loaded!

Thanks.

Hi David,

Finally trying to run kile I get the following error (without sudo no error but does not run either)
# sudo /Applications/MacPorts/KDE4/kile.app/Contents/MacOS/kile
Dynamic session lookup supported but failed: launchd did not provide a socket path, verify that org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist is loaded!

What excactly happens if you invoke kile without sudo? Are you getting any other errors or warnings? I recently had problems because I previously tried to install kile via another package manager, fink, and there were unexpected interferences. I could solve the problem with the help of people on this list, who interpreted the other messages correctly. See the following thread:

Hope this helps

Thomas

Thanks.
