#52080: xfig @3.2.5c_0, transfig @3.2.5d_5: update available to 3.2.6, transfig renamed fig2dev ------------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: thomas.loimer@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: update | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: Port: xfig transfig | ------------------------------+-------------------------------- Changes (by larryv@…): * version: 2.3.4 => * port: => xfig transfig Old description:
As the new maintainer of xfig and transfig, please note that the upstream locations of the xfig and fig2dev, formerly transfig, software packages are now https://sourceforge.net/projects/mcj/files/xfig-3.2.6.tar.xz and https://sourceforge.net/projects/mcj/files/fig2dev-3.2.6.tar.xz respectively.
The transfig-package has been renamed to fig2dev, because this is really what it is. In fact, the transfig-program itself is considered obsolete, therefore it has to be specifically built with the configure-switch --enable-transfig.
Build and installation can now be done with ./configure --disable-dependency-tracking for fig2dev and ./configure --disable-dependency-tracking --with- appdefaultdir=/opt/X11/share/X11/app-defaults for xfig. Then, do make -j; make install-strip Optionally, make check and make installcheck are both supported.
Please, report success on building or any difficulties you might encounter.
Yours,
Thomas Loimer
