Yes, that's evident but that order wouldn't be defined if variants aren't evaluated in a predefined order (which I wasn't sure about). > > Variants are always evaluated in the order they appear in the Portfile. Which means that one has to be very careful with variant-dependent patchfiles, and that could be cases in which one has to provide multiple patchfiles to achieve the same modification (depending on what variant(s) have been selected). I cannot recall having seen a remark drawing attention to that fact in the documentation. > > This sounds useful, but would be way to easy to occupy a student for the > > whole summer...
