#47047: new (meta)port submission: qt5-mac-mysql-plugins -------------------------+----------------------------------- Reporter: rjvbertin@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: submission | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: Keywords: haspatch | Port: qt5-mac-mysql-plugins -------------------------+----------------------------------- Attached a portfile for a new metaport, qt5-mac-mysql-plugins, which provides the mutually conflicting subports for Qt 5. This is an adapted copy of qt4-mac-mysql55-plugin which also provides the other mysql plugin variants, for Qt 4 . Contrary to that portfile, I've opted *not* to use one of the variants as the main port, but rather a stub main (meta) port, an approach I find a bit cleaner. I'm also trying a new (for me) way of defining the port version. Since it depends on the installed (and even the active) Qt port, I obtain the active version through the qmake executable that's an inevitable part of every Qt install. This should remove the need to bump the port version every time Qt is updated, and should even allow users to reinstall (using e.g. `port -n upgrade --force`) the installed subport after activating a different Qt 5 version (regardless of whether that's qt5-mac or qt5-mac-devel). I hope I haven't overlooked potential issues with this approach. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/47047> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
