Hello Volker,
Because of the possible impacts I prefer a step-by-step approach.
arpack-ng is basically a new port:
1. submit arpack-ng as a new port
2. switch other ports after testing
3. when nothing is using arpack anymore, move arpack to the Attic with
necessary devel/quirks adjustments
Hi Martin,
can do, but to avoid conflicts between arpack and arpack-ng, we'd have
to rename the shared lib. That in turn would mean having to tweak each
of the packages we're moving to use -ng (otherwise they'd just pick it up).
@conflict marker in PLIST
Given that essentially everyone else uses -ng succesfully, are you sure
that that's the way to go? Or could we live with the conflict for a while?
Everyone else inside or outside the OpenBSD ports ecosystem?
Speaking from my experience with breaking (and the painful experience of
fixing) armadillo/mlpack across various archs I prefer the stepwise
approach.
BTW the other BSDs also followed this approach.
