Now, as for the messing up the Portfile thing. Yes, everyone agrees that having the universal binary hack in every Portfile is messy and undesirable. Please, stop bringing this up as it really is beating a dead horse at this point. Also, to assume that this is the only option for including this functionality is ridiculous.
So, instead of trashing one bad idea (over and over), how about discussing ways that might get this wanted functionality in with minimal pain. A couple ideas have already been thrown out there. How about sticking to discussing those (or other ones)?
Yes, and as this has been said somewhere, this should be done upstream (perhaps at the autoconf level, with a new option --enable-universal). Indeed, I don't see why only MacPorts users could be interested in universal binaries.
I guess nobody feels responsible for taking care of universal binaries: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2007-02/msg00320.html
