#12013: "port upgrade" tries to activate an installed version before building the new version ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Reporter: vinc17(a)macports.org | Owner: eridius(a)macports.org Type: defect | Status: assigned Priority: Normal | Milestone: MacPorts 1.6.1 Component: base | Version: 1.4.42 Resolution: | Keywords: ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Changes (by jmr(a)macports.org) * cc: vinc17(a)macports.org, eridius(a)macports.org (removed) * cc: jmr(a)macports.org (added) * milestone: MacPorts base bugs => MacPorts 1.6.1 Comment: The comment [http://trac.macports.org/browser/trunk/base/src/macports1.0/macports.tcl#L1… here] says that upgrade will deactivate any active version of the port before activating the latest installed version. The code to do that is broken though. The test around the deactivate call is always false, and the deactivate call itself doesn't use the full version spec (which would cause it to fail if it were ever actually reached). The purpose of testing at all instead of just deactivating whatever's active seems to be to avoid deactivating if the latest version is already the one that is active. The attached patch should hopefully make this work as intended. I'm also proposing this for the 1.6.1 milestone. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/12013#comment:7> MacPorts </> Ports system for Mac OS

#8763: 'port uninstall' does not remove entry in dependency list. ------------------------------------+--------------------------------------- Reporter: agentmonkey(a)gmail.com | Owner: macports-tickets(a)lists.macosforge.org Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: MacPorts base bugs Component: base | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: ------------------------------------+--------------------------------------- Changes (by jmr(a)macports.org) * cc: agentmonkey(a)gmail.com (removed) * cc: jmr(a)macports.org (added) Comment: The bit of code that is causing this problem is [http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/browser/trunk/base/src/registr… here]. The issue is that at that point you don't know which of the multiple versions of the port actually needed a given dependency (since dependencies can change between versions), and hence you don't know whether you can remove the dep map entry. It would be possible to just trim the supernumerary entries from the dep map, but that would still leave you with spurious entries in cases where dependencies have been dropped from the new port version. Maybe upgrade should clear the dep map entries for the old version before installing the new version? -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/8763#comment:13> MacPorts </projects/macports> Ports system for Mac OS
