Install the fish shell
Authored by: ocypode on Aug 21, '08 02:10:34PM
I figured out how to get macports to install graphviz.

1) cd to the var/macports/distfiles directory
2) Then 'sudo mkdir graphviz' if the graphviz directory is not present (it should be there as it was made when the graphviz install failed previously).
3) cd into the graphviz directory and copy the previously downloaded graphviz-2.20.2.tar.gz tarball or 'sudo wget http://www.graphviz.org/pub/graphviz/stable/SOURCES/graphviz-2.20.2.tar.gz' to download it on the spot.
4) I'm paranoid so I cd out of the macports directories before running 'port install graphviz', but once you run it it will install graphviz.

Here is my terminial output showing the above steps in detail:

[orinoco@ocypode graphviz]$ pwd
/opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/graphviz
[orinoco@ocypode graphviz]$ sudo wget http://www.graphviz.org/pub/graphviz/stable/SOURCES/graphviz-2.20.2.tar.gz

At this point. I re-ran 'sudo port install fish' and the fish install picked up from where it left off prior to chocking on graphviz. Should be done soon.

Cheers,
