Not meaning to engender too big of a discussion about how good an idea it might or might not be, but Is there a method for having a Portfile that does something like the following?---------------------- # -*- coding: utf-8; mode: tcl; tab-width: 4; indent-tabs-mode: nil; c-basic-offset: 4 -*- vim:fenc=utf-8:ft=tcl:et:sw=4:ts=4:sts=4 PortSystem 1.0 platform darwin powerpc { source ${filesdir}/Portfile-powerpc } else { source ${filesdir}/Portfile-intel }
Of course you *can* do that, but be aware that the files dir is not available when executing portfiles from the registry (when running pre-/post- activate/deactivate/install/uninstall code.) So you'll get an error then. The situation when installing directly from a binary archive is similar.
