#19267: rubber: fails to install because of "SyntaxError: invalid syntax" -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Reporter: Damien@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.7.1 Keywords: syntax, install | Port: rubber -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Comment(by milosh@…): Replying to [comment:4 raimue@…]:
rubber should be bound to a specific python version. The dependency on python_select is simply wrong, as python_select does not provide any python.
python_select provides a unified path to a python version that should be working. The fact that a highly uncompatible version of python can be selected as the default python seems wrong to me.
It should for example depend on python26 and be patched to use ${prefix}/bin/python2.6.
rubber does not need python to be provided by macports. It works well (I tested it) with the python provided by macosx 10.3, 10.4 and 10.5, but also with macports' python23, python24, python25 and python26. If you want to patch it that way, please provide variants for those 7 configurations. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/19267#comment:5> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
