#52542: widelands-devel -- build from the latest revision of the bzr source tree --------------------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: ken.cunningham.webuse@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: submission | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.4 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: widelands-devel | --------------------------------------+-------------------------------- Comment (by ryandesign@…): Replying to [comment:2 ken.cunningham.webuse@…]:
I made this one for the tip of the dev tree -- latest revision. I was aware of the reproducible builds wiki -- but would this approach not be better for a dev build? For a devel-build that they are looking for feedback on, this seemed appropriate. The code will change nightly, but that's what the devs want feedback on.
The wiki page explains the many reasons why this doesn't work for MacPorts. You must specify a revision. If they update the source, you can update the source revision in the portfile, and increase the version field so that users will know a change was made.
Also -- help me out here if you can -- for the life of me I couldn't find my way through the bazaar source tree website to find a specific revision for widelands I can peg to, like I can for git or have done for a number of others. I know it is possible to specify a revision - their website says it is possible -- but yuck- it's buried in there somewhere deep enough that I couldn't stumble across it after an hour !! Have you been down that road before with bazaar??
Maybe you have to do it manually using the command-line tools and find a specific rev that way? Or maybe I didn't notice the right
Unfortunately I can't help here; I haven't used Bazaar. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/52542#comment:3> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for the Mac operating system
