Possibly.
I meant: your understanding of "dependent" is correct, but possibly there is a bug. On my system: $ port dependents p5-pathtools intltool depends on p5-pathtools I see that Rainer added the p5-pathtools dependency to intltool in r56017 (2009-08-23) and did not increase the port's revision at that time (that's the bug), and the port's revision and version have not increased since then. Therefore, if you installed intltool before 2009-08-23, it will not show p5-pathtools as a dependent. If you reinstall intltool today (sudo port -n upgrade --force intltool), then it will. intltool's revision should probably be increased. _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users
