#51625: ldas-tools being obsoleted --------------------------+--------------------------------- Reporter: ed.maros@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: haspatch maintainer Port: ldas-tools | --------------------------+--------------------------------- Comment (by ed.maros@…): Replying to [comment:5 ryandesign@…]:
Certainly. It would just mean that users who already had ldas-tools 2.4.2 installed will be upgraded to the full set of separate ports.
Did you consider using subports? It looks like there's a bit of common code between the separate portfiles you submitted; a single common set of code could be shared by using subports.
Are there examples of Portfiles that are metapackages and projects that use subports? I would like to take the project in these directions. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/51625#comment:6> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
