#38214: libcomerr: Uses automagic dependency on [g]awk, when available, breaking compile_et later on ------------------------+-------------------- Reporter: ram@… | Owner: cal@… Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.1.3 Resolution: fixed | Keywords: Port: libcomerr | ------------------------+-------------------- Comment (by larryv@…): Replying to [comment:12 egall@…]:
I would have voted for adding the dependency on gawk
Why add an unnecessary dependency?
seeing as it's usually one of the first programs I install anyway ^(because doing so makes the `AC_PROG_AWK` autoconf macro that most configure scripts use find something quicker)^
A premature optimization, if I’ve ever seen one. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/38214#comment:13> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
