#17657: Add livechecks to the octave-* ports --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: alakazam@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Low | Milestone: Port Enhancements Component: ports | Version: 1.7.0 Keywords: octave packages | Port: octave --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Comment(by blb@…): Replying to [comment:2 alakazam@…]:
We should add a portgroup for octave packages, but I didn't have the time to look into it before the 1.7.0 release, so that I think we probably need to wait for the next release to be able to send a portgroup easily to all users. Because of that, we are probably better of updating all octave- forge ports now, even if that means changing all portfiles, and then look further into using a portgroup correctly.
Note that as of MacPorts 1.7.0, the [browser:trunk/dports/_resources/port1.0/group port groups are part of the ports tree] so they can be added/removed/updated without needing new MacPorts releases. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/17657#comment:4> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
