#34461: git-core - make the Portfile independent of the installed version of Perl --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: macintosh@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.1.0 Keywords: haspatch | Port: git-core --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment(by cmc@…): Replying to [comment:2 macintosh@…]:
In my opinion - unless it's explicitly required of the port - then ports ought to be independent of which version of Perl is the major one.
Completely agree. I don't need multiple versions of Perl lying around, especially if there's no actual dependency on a specific version of Perl. Same goes for Python, Ruby, and other languages. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/34461#comment:3> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
