Hello everyone,

I'am trying to install Wine through MacPorts, but it is giving me an error and I don't know what to do.

I followed this tutorial:

http://davidbaumgold.com/tutorials/wine-mac/#part-1

the error that appears is the following:

Error: Requested variants "+universal" do not match original selection "".
Please use the same variants again, perform 'port clean db46' or specify the force option (-f).
Error: Failed to install db46
Log for db46 is at: /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_databases_db46/main.log

Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.
To report a bug, see <http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets>

If anyone can help me I appreciate.

you need to ask in Macports support.. probably someone there would know since your problem isn't anything to do with Wine.

but did you try what is said and clean the partial install of db46 and try again?

Why not just use Darwine's build script instead? It does everything for you and leaves a nice .dmg that can be installed instead. http://thisismyinter.net/?p=11 goes over how to set that up.

is this a serious post? that link doesn't even talk about Darwine...
for starters.. Darwine is really old, and not supported by anyone, and has a lot of problems. There is no reason to use it at all.

It's obviously spam. Please don't reply to such things. I'm sure an admin will be along shortly to delete it and ban the user.

Zach Drayer used to support building Wine on the Mac at that location.
He has moved on to other things.

If someone is looking for a 'do all' script that will build vanilla
Wine I recommend Ryan Woodsmall's script, osxwinebuilder. If they are
looking for a 'skinning' program that builds applications, I recommend
your product, WineSkin. However, if you want more than just Wine in
the realm of UNIX/Linux products, either MacPorts or Fink should be
used instead.
