Today I worked on setting up Player/Stage on my Macbook Pro with Leopard 10.5.6 and I ran into a few issues.
I was using Macports 1.710 and I was attempting to install player-stage-player (2.03 2.1.2) and player-stage-stage (2.03 2.1.1) following a short guide at http://bentham.k2.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp/notebook/?p=247
If it's your first time using macports it can take a long time. I waited 2+ hours to download/build/install dependencies
I used the command:
$ sudo port install playerstage-player playerstage-stage
However it errored out at the end with the message:
$ sudo port install playerstage-player playerstage-stage
---> Building playerstage-player
Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command " cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_science_playerstage-player/work/player-2.0.4" && make all " returned error 2

So I searched around the MacPorts website and I came across the ticket #18891, which basically said to run the following command to change the version of python being used from 3.0 to 2.5.
$ sudo port install python_select && sudo python_select python25
Skipping org.macports.activate (python_select +darwin_9) since this
port is already active
---> Cleaning python_select
Selecting version "python25" for python
Following that command I was able to finish installing Player/Stage via MacPorts by using the orginal port command.
$ sudo port install playerstage-player playerstage-stage
---> Building playerstage-player
---> Staging playerstage-player into destroot
---> Installing playerstage-player @2.0.4_2
---> Activating playerstage-player @2.0.4_2
---> Cleaning playerstage-player
---> Fetching playerstage-stage

I tried to use player stage from MacPorts.
$ player /opt/local/var/macports/software/playerstage-stage\
/*/opt/local/share/stage/worlds/simple.cfg
And I received the error:
rr: unable to open color database /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb.txt
: No such file or directory (stage.c stg_lookup_color)
Following the advice from http://bentham.k2.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp/notebook/?cat=5 I added the following link.
$ sudo ln -s /usr/X11/share/X11/rgb.txt /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb.txt
Now I am able to create a player server and connect with a client with the commands:
$ player /opt/local/var/macports/software/playerstage-stage\
/*/opt/local/share/stage/worlds/simple.cfg
/opt/local/var/macports/software/playerstage-player\
/*/opt/local/share/player/examples/libplayerc++/laserobstacleavoid
With the ability to run player/stage I will post again on my progress as I use an iPhone to run the Player client, rather than my Macbook Pro.
