[MacPorts] #15514: reinplace should warn if nothing got replaced

#15514: reinplace should warn if nothing got replaced -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Reporter: ryandesign(a)macports.org | Owner: macports-tickets(a)lists.macosforge.org Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Enhancements Component: base | Version: 1.6.0 Keywords: | -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- What's always bugged me about reinplace is that you get no notification if nothing got replaced, which will probably bite you later. If you use a patchfile to modify a file, and the patch is out of date, the patch fails to apply and the port command exits with an error. This is good; it alerts the port author to the situation and they can fix it by changing or removing the patch. But with reinplace, if the underlying file you're modifying has changed such that the reinplace no longer causes anything to change, you get no warning and the port command proceeds. I think the correct behavior might ultimately be to error out entirely if a reinplace doesn't change a file, just like we do with failed patches. But as a first step, to get port authors used to this change, it might be friendlier to just print a warning for now. The attached patch adds a warning if a reinplace doesn't change the underlying file. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/15514> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

[MacPorts] #16373: svn fetch type should maintain a persistent working copy

#16373: svn fetch type should maintain a persistent working copy -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Reporter: ryandesign(a)macports.org | Owner: macports-tickets(a)lists.macosforge.org Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: MacPorts base enhancements Component: base | Version: 1.7.0 Keywords: | -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- "`fetch.type svn`" is inefficient in that it checks out a new working copy every time, directly to the work area. That would be like a normal port downloading the distfile every time. Instead, we should check out a working copy to that port's distpath, and then in the extract phase we should `svn export` it to the work area. Some checks will be needed in the fetch phase to ensure that an existing working copy: * has no modifications: check `svn status`. Ideally we would try to clean up the working copy, for example by `svn revert`ing modified or added or deleted files, and then in a second `svn status` run, delete any unversioned files. But it's already an improvement if we just discard the working copy if `svn status --ignore-externals` produces any output. * is from the right URL: check `svn info`: check if the "URL" is the one we want. If not, check that the "Repository Root" is a substring of the repository we want. If yes, try to `svn switch` to the URL and revision we want; if not, discard the working copy. So the fetch phase would go something like... {{{ if {working copy exists} { if {working copy has modifications} { delete working copy } } if {working copy exists} { if {working copy url is the one we want} { svn update to the desired revision } else { if {working copy repository root matches beginning of desired url} { try to svn switch to the desired url and revision if {an error occurred} { delete working copy } } else { delete working copy } } } if {working copy doesn't exist} { check out working copy } }}} And the extract phase is simply to `svn export` the working copy from the distpath to the worksrcpath. (There is [http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=2429 one problem] if the working copy has externals and the user is using Subversion earlier than 1.5, for example Subversion 1.4.whatever which is included with Leopard. But rather than spend time working around this in base, I think this is a case where the port should depend on MacPorts subversion.) -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/16373> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

#16336: Allow multiple ports to satisfy a single dependency ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: rhwood(a)macports.org | Owner: macports-tickets(a)lists.macosforge.org Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0 Keywords: | ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Currently there is no mechanism to specify that multiple ports may satisfy a single dependency requirement. It would be nice to be able to do so. I can think of two ways this can be done: OR dependencies:: Allow dependencies to be specified in the following fashion:[[BR]]{{{port:able|baker|charlie}}}[[BR]]where the pipe is used to separate one or more ports that may satisfy a single dependency. The first port would be used if none of the ports are installed. There should be no limit to the number of pipes, nor should there be any requirement that any pipes be used (ie, no pipes = no alternate dependencies). This should also wotk with ''bin:'' and ''path:'' type dependencies. "provides" capability in ports:: Use a "provides" key to specify that a port satisfies a particular requirement. Use the name of the port if a provides keyword is not specified. For example, if port '''able-devel''' specifies that it {{{ provides able }}} then port '''able-devel''' would be able satisfy the dependency {{{ port:able }}} in another port, without that other port having to be aware of port '''able-devel''' -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/16336> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
