#30030: port selector doesn't appear to affect dependencies ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: jpr5@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: reopened Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: base | Version: 1.9.2 Resolution: | Keywords: selector dependency exclusion Port: | ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Changes (by jpr5@…): * status: closed => reopened * resolution: invalid => Comment: I understand your point, but I'm not able to effect the exclusion. Observe: {{{ # port upgrade outdated and not \( erlang rdependentof:erlang \) ---> Computing dependencies for erlang ---> Building erlang ^C }}} I've tried a number of different combinations of selectors, but to no avail. Is what I'm seeking to do actually possible? The essence of my issue isn't so much about syntax as it is about capability. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/30030#comment:2> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
