I couldn't see anything obvious when I looked after it failed with that error but I'll take another look if I see the error again. >> This machine is sitting in a data centre in California and I'm >> currently talking with the admin who stood it up to try and get to the >> bottom of this as something is very weird... > > I've found over time that a reboot will 'fix' these kind of issues with Mac > OS X running remotely if you need it to work right away (and give yourself > some time to figure out the real issue and fix the root cause if possible). The machine was rebooted over the weekend, apparently it needed to be power cycled for it too come back up and I'm trying to get more information as to what the problem was that caused the reboot to fail. However it's still exhibiting the problems. Another weird thing I've noticed is that when I install a port it fails to install any dependency but if I explicitly request the installation of the port that failed then the installation proceeds successfully.
