#49231: OpenBLAS and OpenBLAS-devel: unify into one Portfile with subport ---------------------------------------+---------------------- Reporter: dstrubbe@… | Owner: nicos@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.4 Resolution: | Keywords: haspatch Port: OpenBLAS, OpenBLAS-devel | ---------------------------------------+---------------------- Comment (by dstrubbe@…): There are example of both patterns: port and port-devel have separate Portfiles, or port-devel as subport in port's Portfile. mpich and openmpi are examples of the latter. So, I think both can be considered standard practices. My motivation is I want to propose a reform of the treatment of variants, to use the compilers portgroup, and to use the logic that currently changes the meaning of the clang variant to instead set default variants accordingly, which would make things more transparent and controllable to the user. Since this change would apply equally to OpenBLAS and OpenBLAS- devel, it could be applied only once if the Portfiles were merged. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/49231#comment:3> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
