Hi,
just out of curiosity… why/how would you want to put it into MacPorts?
Well, for starters, I already have MacPorts on my machine, and it would be
simpler for the users to update. Another thing would be that I already have
WxWidgets installed on MacPorts, do I wouldn’t like having another copy just
for kicad.
IMHO there is really no need to build it via MacPorts, especially due to the
special patched wxWidgets libraries which are not available in MacPorts anyway.
Well, we can either add them, or you can submit them upstream if they’re useful.
Downloading ready-made .dmg images from the website is probably much more easy
than installing via Macports… (and, it doesn’t add another build variant to
support/maintain).
Easier than ‘port install kicad’? We have some requests for packaging kicad in
our bug tracker [1]. What do you mean by having another build variant to
support/maintain? It would (should!) be virtually identical to the copy you
provide.
