#36977: app portgroup can fail when used with python portgroup ---------------------------+-------------------------- Reporter: gcasiraghi@… | Owner: ryandesign@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.1.2 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: app | ---------------------------+-------------------------- Comment (by ryandesign@…): Why can't I rely on the procs running in the defined order? They seem to run in that order. Why would we break that now? The purpose of the existence checks in the portgroup is to assist portfile developers in using the portgroup correctly, to sort of make the portgroup self-documenting. You may be right that we should just require the file to exist before post-destroot and use the real file instead of the symlink. I think the only reason I didn't do that in the first place is using the symlink looked prettier (shorter) in the portfile, but that hardly matters. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/36977#comment:3> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
