Re: When a port is already universal

The other related situation is that when I install MacPorts 1.5.0 from trunk and run portindex and ask for info about sleepwatcher, I get:

$ port info sleepwatcher sleepwatcher 2.0.4, sysutils/sleepwatcher (Variants: universal, universal)

That is, it shows that the universal variant is available twice. Presumably one is the default universal variant, and the other is my own. I say that when a port provides its own universal variant, the MacPorts default universal variant should disappear. It's confusing to see two variants of the same name.

Can any base developer comment on why this happens and how it could be fixed? Thanks.
