#40364: mongodb can't install into userdir ----------------------+-------------------------- Reporter: mtb19@… | Owner: ryandesign@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.2.0 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: mongodb | ----------------------+-------------------------- Comment (by larryv@…): Replying to [comment:5 mtb19@…]:
By the way, if `+no_root` is a deprecated hack, can anyone speak to what ''is'' the preferred (or at least idiomatic) way to address these types of non-root install issues?
If a Portfile must behave differently based on user, it should check the values of `install.user` and `install.group` and automatically do the right thing. (See the `portfile(7)` man page.) -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/40364#comment:6> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
