#29505: Can't deactivate port with deactivated dependent --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: roger@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.9.2 Keywords: | Port: --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- I want to deactivate the '''ruby''' port. The '''swig-ruby''' port depends on it, so I deactivate '''swig-ruby'''. When I try to deactivate '''ruby''', I'm told: {{{ Unable to uninstall/deactivate ruby @1.8.7-p334_0+thread_hooks, the following ports depend on it: ---> swig-ruby @2.0.3_0 }}} So, I must uninstall a deactivated port in order to deactivate one it depends upon. The semantics for deactivate should be the same as for uninstall, it seems to me. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/29505> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
