#48062: Requesting new ports from Documentation Liberation Project -------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: cbradney@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: request | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: | -------------------------+-------------------------------- Comment (by devans@…): Replying to [ticket:48062 cbradney@…]:
Hi
macports has librevenge, libvisio-0.1 and libcdr-0.1. Would it be possible for some more of their libraries to be imported into macports?
They are optional dependencies when building Scribus and add a lot of useful functionality to Scribus.
libfreehand, libmspub, libpagemaker at the first 3 I'd request. There are others like libmwaw that could be useful too in the future.

Thanks Craig
Thanks for your request, Craig. I ported the existing ports you mention as dependencies of inkscape. If you are of such a mind, the surest way to get these new ones included is to take a shot at putting together one or more preliminary Portfiles yourself. You can use one of the existing Portfiles as a guide and submit them here for review and approval. We can always use a new maintainer and I and the other maintainers would be happy to give you a hand to get started. If these libraries are similar to the ones I've already done, they would make good starter projects and, of course, its always a plus to have a maintainer who has an interest in putting the ports to good use himself. What do you think? Dave -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/48062#comment:2> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
