#47833: new port: macvim-devel ---------------------------+---------------------- Reporter: starkhalo@… | Owner: raimue@… Type: submission | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: macvim-devel | ---------------------------+---------------------- Comment (by starkhalo@…): Replying to [comment:1 larryv@…]:
I don’t think it makes sense to introduce a new Vim-related port that has a different maintainer than the other three. We have had other ports in this situation (`wireshark` and `wireshark-devel` come to mind), and the ports tend to diverge. I don't care about ownership, if raimue doesn't mind I could submit a ticket for this as a MacVim subport. I put in an openmaintainer, I don't see the problem with ownership.
Regarding divergence, it's the same codebase, from the same devs, with basically the same patches. I just find the latest MacVim stable release too old (Apri 21, 2014 with patch 7.4.316). -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/47833#comment:2> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
