#34617: make all ports independent of which version of Perl is installed or the major one --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: macintosh@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.1.1 Keywords: haspatch | Port: --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- ports can be made independent of which version of Perl is installed or the major one by {{{ 1) setting a portgroup: PortGroup perl5 1.0 2) change all hard-coded instances of perl5.12 and p5.12 to perl${perl5.major} and p${perl5.major} }}} But as pointed out in #34461 by Ryan, there are tons of ports that are hard-coded this way. This mega-patch implements the above in all 104 affected ports Incidentially, it thus also invalidates #34461 & #34357 This has been discussed on the dev-list starting with [[BR]] http://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/macports-dev/2012-May/019263.html -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/34617> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
