Hi, $port cat all | grep -c "platform universal" 1 $port cat all | grep -c "variant universal" 5 so that's only curl right now. I heard the call for universal binaries the other day and started looking for ports that could easily be built as such. [22:18:36] <pipping> suggestion: implement +universal variants. when they're confirmed to work make them default_variants with a check for variants_isset darwin or something like that [22:19:05] <jkh> pipping: I think that's a fine idea. in case platform universal actually works somehow that might be another approach. opinions on this anyone? I've added such variants to * coreutils (r22278) * expat (r22269) * gzip (r22281) * pkgconfig (r22276) * vim (r22265, r22268) - still ugly i ran into some problems, though, when i added such a variant to apr: having expat and apr built as +universal, apr-util no longer built. i'll look into this later today.

So I said earlier [1] that I had seen a port with a variant +universal, which is a strategy which seems now to have been adopted by some other ports. However, I just noticed that the port where I thought I had seen that, curl, actually says "platform universal" instead of "variant universal", and I'm not sure how that works. Anyone know?
