#38900: mongodb port uses internal boost library, instead of system's (macports version) of boost ------------------------------------+-------------------------- Reporter: alexander.afanasyev@… | Owner: ryandesign@… Type: enhancement | Status: assigned Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.1.3 Resolution: | Keywords: haspatch Port: mongodb | ------------------------------------+-------------------------- Changes (by ryandesign@…): * status: new => assigned * owner: macports-tickets@… => ryandesign@… * type: defect => enhancement * keywords: => haspatch Comment: Right now, I think this would work, and I'm open to making this change. But note that previously we switched from using MacPorts boost to using the internal boost because the developers of boost do not believe in backward compatibility, and an update of MacPorts boost caused mongodb to no longer build (#35118), and I'm virtually certain that a future version of boost will break mongodb again. But if and when that happens, we can go back to using the internal boost again. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/38900#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
