We have been seeing this problem a lot with FOSS on El Crapitan, caused 
by the new System Integrity Protection [SIP].  Unfortunately, the engineers who 
came up with this feature must not have used any software that wants to run 
tests prior to installation.

Anyway, setting DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH [or any DYLD_*] won’t help: SIP makes 
sure that all subshells, scripts, etc get a bare environment specifically to 
prevent exactly what you are trying to do.  As a user, the fix is to disable 
SIP before compiling.  For the project, the short-term fix is probably going to 
be skipping the test on OS 10.11.

Local Repo

2014-09-25 Thread David Lowe
Greetings

I'm trying to set up a local repository for my schoolwork.  The book 
doesn't seem to have many examples with this type of setup, so i seem to be 
stumbling a bit.  First off, this part seemed to go okeh:

$ sudo svnadmin create /usr/local/svn/repos

But then this bit doesn't:

$ sudo svn import -m "initial import" cashier.cpp file:usr/local/svn/repos
Password:
svn: E150002: Path 'file:///usr/local/svn/repos' already exists

How should i be going about this?

As has been hinted at already, HTTP does not use *any* encryption.  In 
order to encrypt hypertext file transfers, one would need to set the web server 
and clients to HTTPS protocol.  Most likely your server is Apache, but in any 
case such configuration details are off-topic for this list.  Please read up 
on, for example, 'man https' or do a web on 'apache configuration'.
