Joshua Root:
But then it went from there (we're busy), to "MacPorts is a source
distribution".
"MacPorts is a source distribution" is merely a statement of fact, not
of policy, as far as portmgr is concerned.
Okay, I heard more like "we don't need no steenking packages"...
So sticking with the archives seemed like a reasonable approach.
My personal response is, "Yes, we know that binaries would be a great
feature to have. Now can we stop talking about it and write code?" :-)
Because in the end, this feature request, like every other, is waiting
on a volunteer to produce a patch.
So you want the dp_light branch updated ? Or a patch for xpkg ?
Or should we talk about which code we are about to patch ? ;-)
