#20626: patch to allow for proper functioning of pre-/post- install/uninstall/activate/deactivate procs ----------------------------------------+----------------------------------- Reporter: david.osguthorpe@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: base | Version: 1.7.0 Keywords: | Port: ----------------------------------------+----------------------------------- The current implementation of pre-/post- procs for install/uninstall/activate/deactivate has many issues. pre-/post- procs dont exist for deactivate/uninstall pre-/post- activate procs are not run when port activate is called directly - only from the indirect internal munging of a port install call pre-/post- activate procs are not run for non-image installs even though they perform actions such as starting daemons with this patch pre-/post- procs are stored in the registry and hence are versioned so when a specific version is re-activated (or deactivated) that versions specific procs are run activate/deactivate are treated as a sub-phase of install/uninstall rather than separate phases after install/before uninstall (which makes procs for non-image installs work and removes the internal munging of port install to port activate) (variant pre-/post- install/uninstall/activate/deactivate procs are treated as for current install/activate variants) The changes required are relatively clean hence I thought it would be useful to have the patch available before other changes etc. for 1.8.0 might destroy them TODO: What is not implemented yet is storing procs with the archive for archive mode (which is not the default any more but important for me because I use it) -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/20626> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
