I've tried both methods of installing Solfege on Mac Osx and both times it failed to load the dependencies.
Here is the output of the last attempt:
bobs-macbook:~ robertinglis$ sudo port install solfege +quartz +no_x11
Password:
---> Computing dependencies for solfege
---> Dependencies to be installed: py27-gtk py27-cairo py27-numpy atlas gcc44 mpfr gzip texinfo fftw-3 py27-nose py27-distribute py27-py py27-gobject libffi qtplay

Error: Target org.macports.configure returned: configure failure: shell command failed (see log for details)

bobs-macbook:~ robertinglis$
Similar to the first attempt without the +options.

I'm a fan of solfege, as is my teacher. But reading about the sub-programs and sub-sub-programs that I apparently would have to install to make your solfege program work made my head hurt. I'm not too inclined to install a bunch of developer programs I don't understand. I'd very much like to use your program, but . . . the downloading and installation process is intimidating.

Eu em conjunto com meu professor estamos tentando instalar o Solfege, mas sem sucesso.
Já instalei o Xcode 4 e mesmo assim não funcionou. Tentamos com "Fink" e "MacPorts" e nenhum deu certo.
Preciso do Solfege no meu MacBook para fazer minha monografia (trabalho de conclusão do curso de licenciatura em música).

Alguma solução?

Me ajudem!!!

I together with my teacher we are trying to install Solfege, but without success.
I have already installed the Xcode 4 and still did not work. We try to "Fink" and "MacPorts" and none worked.
I need Solfege on my MacBook to my monograph (final paper of the degree course in music).

Any solution?

Help me, help us!!!

Send a question to the mailing list (solfege-devel@lists.sourceforge.net) and ask for help. Maybe some of the mac people has some suggestions.

i did it and it works!
but if you want to open solfege type "solfege" (without quotes) and type it again in the line below.
now it will start.
