#51552: Page LibcxxOnOlderSystems: some help with "uninstall all ports that use C++" ----------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: tamas.fulop@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: wiki | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: Port: | ----------------------------+-------------------------------- Comment (by ken.cunningham.webuse@…): This was useful (from Jeremy Hu) {{{ which installed ports are using c++: grep -R 'c++' /opt/local and port provides .. ? =/ }}} that gave a moderately long list of files, from which it wasn't too hard to do {{{ port provides XYZ }}} and figure out which ports they belonged to. In the end, on my system with hundreds of ports installed, it all came down to less than a dozen c++ ports, although it took 1/2 an hour to figure them all out. That was much faster than just bulldozing the whole installation, however. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/51552#comment:4> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for the Mac operating system
