#17505: darcs-devel is redundant and should be removed ---------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: macports.org@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Updates Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0 Keywords: | Port: darcs-devel ---------------------------------------+------------------------------------ I haven't checked the history of darcs-devel but I guess it was created when darcs was still 1.x during the development phase of 2.x However the {{{darcs}}} port is now {{{(a)2.1.2}}} while {{{darcs-devel}}} is {{{(a)2.0.0pre4}}}, making it older than {{{darcs}}}, useless and less safe. I don't think there is any reason why it wouldn't be removed. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/17505> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

#18632: Finding perl ports that are part of other ports is too hard ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- Reporter: scott@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: MacPorts Future Component: ports | Version: 1.7.0 Keywords: | Port: ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- I love MacPorts, it makes my life easier, sometimes, it makes my life harder. What is the solution to solve this? Example Case: port search p5-Tie-RDBM No match for p5-Tie-RDBM found Search MacPorts http://www.macports.org/ports.php?by=name&substr=rdbm Nothing Search CPAN http://search.cpan.org/~lds/Tie-DBI-1.02/lib/Tie/RDBM.pm Finds it with no issue Now I am stuck, do I make a port for it? I did, I think I wasted my time. port search p5-Tie-DBI p5-tie-dbi @1.02 (perl) Nie:DBI This distribution contains Tie::DBI and Tie::RDBM I do not really know what to suggest, I brought it up on the mail list a while back. There was opposition to adding more data to the portfile, opposition to my suggestion to add another field for the purpose of listing ports that contain other ports. At this point, I would at least suggest, that in cases like this, some "stub" record be added to the web based port search. Ideally, it should all be handled in the ports on the command line. CPAN makes me want to barf, almost all the time, CPAN wins in this case, as it finds what I need, on the web, or in the command line. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/18632> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

#18357: tmux blocks Distributed Objects --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: l.g.chin@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.7.0 Keywords: tmux screen | Port: tmux --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- tmux 0.6 as distributed with MacPorts blocks the usage of [http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/DistrObjects/Dist… Distributed Objects] for inter-process messaging. This is a problem when specifying an editor such as TextMate or MacVim for writing commit messages in version control systems such as git or Subversion. The version of GNU Screen bundled with OS X Leopard has a similar issue, as outlined on the TextMate blog: http://blog.macromates.com/2007/leopard- issues/ Since this issue is resolved in the MacPorts version of screen for GNU screen, I suspect that the same could be done for tmux. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/18357> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

[MacPorts] #15712: Add versions to platforms

#15712: Add versions to platforms ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: raimue(a)macports.org | Owner: macports-tickets(a)lists.macosforge.org Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: MacPorts base enhancements Component: base | Version: Keywords: platforms versions | ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Currently the `platforms` statement can only specify a platform like `darwin, macosx, linux, freebsd` and others, but cannot require a version of the platform. So this is a proposal to extend it to also include platform version numbers. This would look like this: {{{ platforms darwin # as it is now platforms {darwin 7} {darwin 8} # Darwin 7 or 8 platforms {darwin >=8} # Darwin 8 or higher platforms {macosx >=9.3} # Mac OS X 10.5.3 or higher }}} If a platform does not match the requirements, the port should error out automatically when trying to install it. To enforce a specifc version, some ports are using pre-fetch {} blocks at the moment, these could be replaced with this new syntax. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/15712> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

#18376: Remedy socket 35 errors on all Python builds -----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- Reporter: ben@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: High | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.7.0 Keywords: python, socket | Port: -----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- OSX's poll is broken. Apple knows this, and removes the HAVE_POLL option as can be seen in the first line of the pyconfig patch here: http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/10.5.6/python-30.1.2/fix/pycon… This patch should be applied to all Python builds that MacPorts supports, as it fixes a nasty bug that is being mis-reported all over the place on OSX. Here's one such example of a traceback caused by it: {{{ File "../uploader.py", line 94, in <module> resp, data = http.request(post_uri, 'POST', body=content, headers=headers) File "build/bdist.macosx-10.5-i386/egg/httplib2/__init__.py", line 1050, in request File "build/bdist.macosx-10.5-i386/egg/httplib2/__init__.py", line 854, in _request File "build/bdist.macosx-10.5-i386/egg/httplib2/__init__.py", line 823, in _conn_request File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/httplib.py", line 874, in request self._send_request(method, url, body, headers) File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/httplib.py", line 914, in _send_request self.send(body) File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/httplib.py", line 719, in send self.sock.sendall(str) File "<string>", line 1, in sendall socket.error: [Errno 35] Resource temporarily unavailable }}} And another report caused by the same problem: http://www.cherrypy.org/ticket/598 Applying the same regexp that Apple does, fixes the problem in my tests. Credit for finding this bug and its solution should be attributed to Phil Jenvey, I merely bugged him until he found the problem for me. :) -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/18376> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
