This portfile installs ansible from the git repository, it will install the latest and greatest version of ansible. This portfile does not install the required dependencies to run in accelerated mode. ## Installing the stable version of ansible via macports If you wish to run a stable version of ansible please do the following First update your macports repo to the latest versions $ sudo port sync Then install ansible $ sudo port install ansible ## Installing the devel version of ansible via macports To use this Portfile to install the development version of ansible one should follow the instructions at <http://guide.macports.org/#development.local-repositories> The basic idea is to add the _ansible/packaging/macports_ directory to your _/opt/local/etc/macports/sources.conf_ file. You should have something similar to this at the end of the file file:///Users/jtang/develop/ansible/packaging/macports rsync://rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs/ports.tar [default] In the _ansible/packaging/macports_ directory, do this $ portindex Once the index is created the _Portfile_ will override the one in the upstream macports repository. Installing newer development versions should involve an uninstall, clean, install process or else the Portfile will need its version number/epoch bumped.
