#24904: ice-cpp, ice-java, ice-python, ice-python25, ice-python26: simplify -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Reporter: ryandesign@… | Owner: blair@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.8.2 Keywords: | Port: ice-cpp, ice-java, ice-python, ice-python25, ice-python26 -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- I noticed the ice ports (ice-cpp, ice-java, ice-python, ice-python25, ice- python26) are a bit complex in some places and don't take full advantage of the facilities and features MacPorts makes available. I'd like to propose some changes to simplify these ports. I suggest I attach a patch that makes one change to all these ports, explain why I recommend these changes, and once you or I commit it, I'll attach another patch with another proposal. ---- The first suggestion is to [attachment:branch.diff make and use a ${branch} variable], as described in [wiki:PortfileRecipes#branch PortfileRecipes]. This way you don't have to update the master_sites every time the branch number changes. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/24904> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
