#16329: Inheritance of macports.conf configuration files ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Reporter: adambyrtek@gmail.com | Owner: macports-tickets@lists.macosforge.org Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: MacPorts base enhancements Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0 Keywords: configuration patch | ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- There are two possible locations of MacPorts configuration file:[[BR]] $prefix/etc/macports.conf[[BR]] $home/.macports/macports.conf Currently user defined file if present *substitutes* the global file completely. The attached patch allows user to override only a few configuration options, keeping the global file as a default for other options. This is more in line with other Unix tools and more convenient, as often user only wants to tweak a few options keeping the rest in place. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/16329> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
