#14178: show default_variants in "port variants foobar" --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: themolok@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: MacPorts 1.8.0 Component: base | Version: 1.6.0 Keywords: | Port: --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Changes (by raimue@…): * cc: raimue@… (added) Comment: I began to use some special syntax in `port info` to indicate the reason for this variant to be selected. Currently port adds prefixes to variants for three different cases: * `+` explicitely selected on the command-line * `[+]` selected by default_variants * `(+)` selected by variants.conf I haven't heard any feedback so far on this, especially if you got better ideas how to indicate this. But at last it would be good to use the same syntax in `port variants`. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/14178#comment:7> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
