Installing the ARC Graphical Clients on Mac OS X requires MacPorts. When MacPorts has been installed check out the following 2 repositories to your home directory:
$ svn checkout svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/arc-gui-clients/svn/trunk/macports/globus-ports ./globus-ports
$ svn checkout svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/arc-gui-clients/svn/trunk/macports/arc-ports ./arc-ports
$ svn checkout svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/arc-gui-clients/svn/trunk/macports/arc-ports ./arc-ports
Next, update add the local repositories to to MacPorts by adding the following lines in the /opt/local/etc/macports/sources.conf before the rsync://rsync.macports… line, as shown below:
file:///Users/[user id]/globus-ports [nosync]
file:///Users/[user id]/arc-ports [nosync]
rsync://rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs/ports.tar [default]
file:///Users/[user id]/arc-ports [nosync]
rsync://rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs/ports.tar [default]
To make MacPorts aware of the new local repos issue the following commands:
cd globus-ports
portindex
cd ../arc-ports
portindex
portindex
cd ../arc-ports
portindex
Install the ARC Graphical clients by issuing:
sudo port install arc-gui-clients
