This can be quite simple. Basically, you will find all the packages I have prepared there: http://savonet.rastageeks.org/browser/macports The minimal thing to do there is to update each new upstream release. This means, for instance with: http://savonet.rastageeks.org/browser/macports/devel/ocaml-ao/Portfile that you change the version number and also the checksums of the new tarball. Hopefully, this will be sufficient. Also, you should look for ports that I did because they were not available or dated in macports. Basically, this is the case for all modules that are not provided by savonet: camomille xml-light ocaml-magic Also, there were new optional modules released with liquidsoap 0.9.0: ocaml-theora ocaml-speex ocaml-speex If you want to port these modules, you should be able to adapt the Portfile of one of the other savonet's modules. For the technical details, a macport is a sophisticated way to automatise the build of the software. It includes downloading and decompressing the source, preparing compilation (most of the time using configure), compiling and installing. For ocaml-specific modules, in particular, each Portfile includes two snipets for ocaml-specific variables and stuff. I have copied this from other ports, so you could find better alternatives. You should be able to checkout the SVN ports from savonet on your local computer and use them directly in your local port system. If you want to contribute back, there is no problem to give you commit rights, such that you can commit your updated ports when they are working. For other details, I would advise to look at macport's documentation: http://guide.macports.org/ You should also look at other port's code to see what you can do. Eventually, if you really want to be involed in maintaining the ports, you should consider pushing them to the main macport repository. I already filled tickets for that purpose, but since I cannot be involved anymore, it stopped at that point. Additionaly, an upgrade of the macports would be a great news for us !
