#45269: crossbinutils @ 1.0 0-byte manpages --------------------------------+--------------------------------- Reporter: matthieu.mallet@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.1 Resolution: | Keywords: crossbuild binutils Port: arm-elf-binutils | --------------------------------+--------------------------------- Comment (by egall@…): Replying to [comment:5 matthieu.mallet@…]:
Well, I found out what is wrong. In the "crossbinutils-1.0.tcl" script, the post-extract phase deletes the "etc" directory which contains the tex2pod script: {{{ post-extract { delete ${worksrcpath}/etc file mkdir ${workpath}/build } }}} If I comment out the "delete ${worksrcpath}/etc" line I get my man pages generated. Does anyone know why we remove this etc directory?
I am guessing it was because the stuff in it is included in a bunch of other GNU packages as well, so leaving them there could lead to conflicts... I suppose if conflicts are the issue, though, it would make more sense to wait until the destroot phase to remove them... -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/45269#comment:6> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
