demeter installation in OSX El Capitan
Dear all, I recently upgraded my mac to OSX El Capitan, and tried to install demeter following the steps at http://bruceravel.github.io/demeter/ XQuartz 2.7.9 (xorg-server 1.17.4), Xcode 7.3.1, command line tools, “sudo port -v self update”, “port upgrade outdated” were all OK. When I tried “sudo port install xorg-server demeter”, it showed: ---> Computing dependencies for xorg-server ---> Cleaning xorg-server ---> Computing dependencies for demeter ---> Dependencies to be installed: ifeffit libgcc cctools llvm-3.8 libcxx libffi llvm_select gmp isl ld64 ld64-latest libmpc mpfr pgplot gcc5 ... (a long list) Then after many attempts to fetch libcxx-3.7.1_0.darwin_15.x86_64.tbz2 from various websites, it showed: Error: org.macports.archivefetch for port libcxx returned: archivefetch failed for libcxx @3.7.1_0 Error: Failed to install libcxx Please see the log file for port libcxx for details: /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_lang_libcxx/libcxx/main.log The log file is attached. What should I do to fix it? Any suggestion will be appreciated. Thanks. Yuan

Demeter 0.9.24 does work for me on El Capitan (10.11.5). In fact, I did a sudo port upgrade outdated and many packages updated, and and Demeter still lauches and seems to run. Yuan, you say you upgraded to 10.11. Does that mean you had Macports / Demeter working on 10.10 and it failed to work when you upgraded? If so, you might try completely uninstalling Macports and starting over. Just for fun (well, maybe chasing Pokemon or over-analyzing Brexit is more your thing, but this works for me), I just moved my "/opt" and "/Applications/Macports" folder, reinstalled the Macports package, and then re-installed with sudo port install demeter (I think you don't need to specify xorg-server) and it magically worked. So, maybe try uninstalling and installing again? Or maybe try installing without xorg-server? --Matt
