#18133: /opt/local/bin/port documentation problems -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Reporter: macosforge.org@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: base | Version: 1.7.0 Keywords: | Port: -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- there are a number of minor problems with the port command's documentation. 1) the usage text differs between "port help" and the man page. help: {{{ port [-bcdfiknopqRstuvx] [-D portdir] [-F cmdfile] action [privopts] [actionflags] [[portname|pseudo-portname|port-url] [@version] [+-variant]... [option=value]...]... }}} man page: {{{ port [-vdqfonRusbckixpt] [-D portdir] [-F cmdfile] [action] [actionflags] [[portname | pseudo-portname | port-url]] [[@version] [+/-variant ...] ... [option=value ...]] }}} 2) "actions" aren't consistently referred to as "actions". the help text refers to "commands". the man page talks about "USER TARGETS". 3) the pseudo-portname "outdated" is listed as a command in the help text. 4) the help text lists "work" as a command. there are likely other inconsistencies, too. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/18133> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
