#38379: New port "databases/sysbench" ----------------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: alexander.janssen@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: submission | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.1.3 Resolution: | Keywords: haspatch Port: sysbench | ----------------------------------+-------------------------------- Changes (by ryandesign@…): * cc: ryandesign@… (added) Comment: Do create a variant for mysql5 and make it the default variant; it is still the default mysql in MacPorts at this time. Do also offer variants for the newer mysql ports: mysql51, mysql55, mariadb, percona. Do not offer a variant for mysql4; it is obsolete in the extreme and we should be working on removing it from MacPorts, not integrating it further. Remove "Builds by default against MySQL 5.5." from the description. Users can determine by looking at the output of "port variants" what the default variants are. The initial revision of any given version of a port should be 0 not 1. Yes, remove the autoconf, automake and libtool dependencies from depends_build since MacPorts adds them for you automatically when you use `use_autoreconf yes`. Rather than creating AUTHORS and NEWS files with unofficial content, I'd just create empty files. The Tcl `touch` command can do that. Why is Makefile.am being patched to insert a blank line? What does that accomplish? I would remove comments like "Modified for Macports" from the patch; they add no value. If sysbench itself does not use openssl or zlib (and they're only used by the mysql libraries) then don't add these dependencies; let the mysql ports do that when needed. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/38379#comment:13> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
