#41441: vigra update (1.9.0 -> 1.10.0) --------------------------------+--------------------------------- Reporter: benjamin.seppke@… | Owner: ryandesign@… Type: update | Status: assigned Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.2.1 Resolution: | Keywords: haspatch maintainer Port: vigra | --------------------------------+--------------------------------- Comment (by ryandesign@…): Yeah, that's just how github works. We can use the github portgroup to deal with the peculiarities of the github hosting service. Usually the reason why developers release tarballs separately instead of letting users download from github is that files not in the repository need to be generated. For projects using autotools, this is often the configure script. This project uses cmake so that doesn't apply. I compared the two tarballs and the difference is: {{{ $ diff -ru github-tag/vigra-Version-1-10-0/ googledrive/vigra-1.10.0/ Only in googledrive/vigra-1.10.0/: doc }}} Is the doc directory important? If not (i.e. if the port doesn't install the documentation anyway) then sure we can use the tarball of the github tag. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/41441#comment:9> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
