#29523: Strange definition of "future" ------------------------------------+--------------------------------------- Reporter: mattalbright@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: base | Version: 1.9.2 Keywords: | Port: ------------------------------------+--------------------------------------- Description changed by ryandesign@…: Old description:
Future: "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."
From http://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/trunk/base/src/port1.0/portutil.... :
{{{ if {[file mtime ${portpath}/Portfile] >= [clock seconds]} { return -code error "Portfile is from the future - check date and time of your system" } }}}
I'm pretty sure "future" means mtime > now, not >=. I'm syncing a Portfile from an RCS and building it in a script, and apparently my computer is too fast, cause it's getting this error about the future.
Yes, a `sleep 1` works, but c'mon! :-)
