#43964: weechat @0.4.3 - subports --------------------------+--------------------------------- Reporter: starkhalo@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.0 Resolution: | Keywords: haspatch maintainer Port: weechat | --------------------------+--------------------------------- Comment (by ryandesign@…): Could the weechat-devel subport use the github portgroup, and fetch from a distfile instead of getting the files from the git repository? If so, that would be preferable. Consult the comments in the github portgroup file for more information. I do not think we would want to add a weechat-git subport. We want ports to build reproducibly -- the same every time; the weechat-git subport's purpose seems to be to circumvent that by letting it use whatever version happens to be current at the time the install command is run. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/43964#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
