#15392: Guide and install.php should be synced and subversion installs expanded ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Reporter: wsiegrist@apple.com | Owner: wms@macports.org Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Low | Milestone: Component: guide | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: guide documentation website ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Comment (by markd@macports.org): I'd favor rolling the "other platforms" information into a separate html page that is linked in both docs, since the readership is small it should not be obtrusive, and it also provides a single source. The install section of the guide does need info on subversion installs. It could easily be tucked into the "source installs" section. I'll add something for that in the next few days. If we could agree on when we have an adequate guide install section, perhaps we could just transform the xml of the guide's install section into install.php, thereby also giving a single source. I think install.php has too much information subject to change (v2.4.1, v 3.0, "Panther PPC", etc) that can be simplified ("latest Xcode _here_"). But then I wrote the install section of the guide and so I'm not an unbiased observer. I favor a minimalist approach, and some questions will always have to be answered by the mailing list anyway. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/15392#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
