#39185: ImageMagick: Using the +perl variant should not stop the installation -----------------------------+-------------------------- Reporter: jozef.mojzis@… | Owner: ryandesign@… Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.1.3 Resolution: wontfix | Keywords: Port: ImageMagick | -----------------------------+-------------------------- Comment (by ryandesign@…): Replying to [comment:5 ryandesign@…]:
Replying to jozef.mojzis@... (from non-Trac email):
Isn't possible to do the same with the +perl? Something like:
{{{ variant perl description {Install p5-perlmagick too} { depends_lib-append port:p5-perlmagick ... configure.args-delete --without-perl configure.args-append --with-perl } }}}
Sorry, I misread. You're suggesting declaring a dependency on p5-perlmagick in the perl variant. No, that's not possible, because p5-perlmagick depends on ImageMagick. That would create a circular dependency, which is not possible in MacPorts. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/39185#comment:6> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
