Maybe this is because the script sees that you had py27 installed, but failed to determine that you didn't have all the required libs? Hopefully that means someone with just the runtime installed would be okay.
What libs did you install? That would help Gerrit fix up that logic I think.
No message at first, just failed to run. In that case python2.7 is present, but none of the other three files are present. I do NOT get a message about MacPorts at all in this case.
I installed py27-gtk via macports as this is the first package needed. BTW, py27-libxml2 is a dependency for py27-gtk so it installs automatically, so that installed the second package automatically.
To see what happens when there is a missing macports package, I tried running the 08272011 daily again. This time I got a "Macport py27-serial module is not installed" message as expected and THEN a Failed to Run message.
Installed py27-serial, and everything came right up.
Not sure why I wasn't getting a "The Macport py27-gtk module for OSX is not installed".
Oh wait! Actually I do know why I think... that message is being created with GTK, not straight X11.... and at that time there is no GTK yet. Likely need to use xmessage and not ERRMSG.
