Yes - as long as it doesn't introduce artefacts or other side-effects. In the meantime, I managed to get qtscriptgenerator to build without patching any other ports, a bit to my surprise. https://trac.macports.org/ticket/47204#comment:17 The main issue appeared to be that qtsg does not only use qmake to find components, but also includes its own internal search logic which is based in part on the obsolete QTDIR env. variable. Debian/Ubuntu exploit that by setting QTDIR=/usr/include/qt4 which is obviously not at all what QTDIR was once intended for. I didn't dare to remove the QTDIR setting from the Qt4 PortGroup at this point, so I unset it in the qtsg Portfile. I then introduce a patch to generator/main.h which queries a novel QTFRAMEWORKS env.var (set in the qtsg Portfile) or else falls back to a hardcoded copy of ${qt_frameworks_dir}. That fallback appears to be redundant because the generator is not installed (which I wasn't sure about when I wrote the patch). An additional few lines that add ${prefix}/include/phonon allow the phonon code to be compiled. They might not be required with a patched phonon mkspec file, but my current solution is much less likely to introduce side-effects. I'll have to check some other time whether the 2 additional patchfiles I added are actually required, but I won't be offended if someone beats me to it :) R. _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list macports-dev@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev
