#23423: imap-uw needs some cleanup -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Reporter: ryandesign@… | Owner: snc@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.8.2 Keywords: | Port: imap-uw -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- I have a lot of problems with the imap-uw port. * The comment in the portfile says the default is to enable SSL support and plaintext authentication. Why then is there an ssl_plain variant whose purpose is to enable SSL support and plaintext authentication? * The ssl_pam variant does everything the ssl_plain variant does, and more. These variants need to therefore either conflict or the ssl_pam variant needs to depend on the ssl_plain variant and remove the duplicate directives from itself. * The openssl dependency in the ssl_pam variant should be a port:-style dependency. * The default build.target is oxp; there's no need for the ssl_pam variant to set the build.target to oxp again. * The post-destroot message in the ssl_pam variant references Mac OS X 10.3, an unsupported OS. * The nopwd variant deletes the nonexistent build.arg "SSLTYPE=unix". Perhaps this variant was meant to conflict with -- or require? -- the ssl_plain and/or ssl_pam variants? * To what mailbox format will new mailboxes default if neither the mbx nor the mix variant is selected? I would have expected all possible mailbox formats to be expressed as conflicting variants with one of them selected via default_variants. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/23423> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
