#16812: port submission: open-cobol 1.0 ------------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: markdigital69@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: submission | Status: reopened Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: Port: open-cobol | ------------------------------+-------------------------------- Comment (by larryv@…): Replying to [comment:14 egall@…]:
The issues with detecting the right `db` might be easier to deal with if we had a `db_select` port so that there could be an unversioned `libdb` to link to.
We should never be doing this (legacy nonsense such as `perl5` aside). `FOO_select` ports are solely to select user-facing defaults. Ports themselves should always use specific versions. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/16812#comment:15> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
