Hello, What is the policy about -devel ports for which their normal counterparts have a greater or equal version? % (port echo '*-devel' 1>&2 | sed -E 's/-devel[[:>:]]//') 2>&1 | sort | xargs port list Etoile @0.1.9 gnustep/Etoile Etoile-devel

Creating self contained bundles with MacPorts

2007-08-11 Thread Drew McCormack
I want to use macports to build self contained bundles, containing a tool and any dependencies of that tool. For example, I want to distribute an FFTW package that installs into /Users/Shared/FFTW. Under that directory would be the usual bin, lib etc: /Users/Shared/FFTW/bin /Users/Shared/FF

Default variants

2007-08-11 Thread N_Ox
From what I've understood, the problem with default variants is that if we do something like `port foo -bar` and that foo has `default_variants +bar`, if an upgrade of foo is released, then `port upgrade foo` will enable bar variant because variant disabling are not saved and `default_varia

mtree violation check: no files matched glob pattern "*"

2007-08-11 Thread Ryan Schmidt
I'd say installing into /Applications/MacPorts should not be considered an mtree violation. Check this out: $ sudo port install minivmac ---> Fetching minivmac ---> Verifying checksum(s) for minivmac ---> Extracting minivmac ---> Configuring minivmac ---> Building minivmac ---> Staging m

mtree violations should be debug info, should not be fatal errors

2007-08-11 Thread Ryan Schmidt
