#14172: unison upgrade removed unison-2.13 - synchronization with some machines fails ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Reporter: vinc17@macports.org | Owner: eridius@macports.org Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: High | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0 Resolution: wontfix | Keywords: ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Comment (by eridius@macports.org): Replying to [comment:6 vinc17@macports.org]:
This is completely stupid! Unison 2.13 is still proposed by upstream and not declared as outdated. On the other hand, look at all these useless db* ports.
What do you mean "proposed by upstream"? And I believe the db* ports exist because of software packages that depend on specific versions of db*.
However, I think the better version is to just install 2.27 on your debian machine.
Too many machines (not just one).
Ok, then install 2.13 on your local machine. My point still stands - we are not in the business of providing old ports unless there is a clear demand from other ports that depend on specific versions (such as the db* ports, or python2.4). Nothing depends on unison. We should not hold ourselves back just because other packaging systems do. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/14172#comment:7> MacPorts </projects/macports> Ports system for Mac OS
