Hi Kunlun121,
The MacPort has not been updated. You can see that for yourself by doing: port search lprof
The last and only port version available gives a version number of @20090113. I assume the person who built this port used the date they retrieved it from CVS.
I'm running it with the instructions I placed above on Mac OS 10.6 but be warned that there are reports of a few bugs in Snow Leopard with regards to colour management. My display profiler for instance gives erratic results and the developers have warned us not to use Snow Leopard for colour calibration work. I did create a few profiles under Snow Leopard and the results are good as far as removing colour cast that the VueScan generated profiles had but I'm seeing some clipping in the shadows. I still need to investigate what's the cause but I'd recommend not to use Snow Leopard for now. It's just one more variable and colour profiling has too many already.
Here are a couple more hints if you follow my instructions above.
- In Step 4, when asked for a password after the cvs login command, do not wait long. Press Return quickly otherwise you'll get an authentication error.
- In Step 5, the cmake command at the end takes 3 1/2 hours to complete on my MacBook Pro 2.4GHz. Most of the time is spent building Qt4, the cross platform user interface library. What a beast this thing is.
- In Step 6, you start xcode by the following command in Terminal (inside the build directory).
open lprof.xcodeproj
