#29531: _select ports no longer provide _select binary ------------------------------------------------------------------------+--- Reporter: hansimglueck@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: reopened Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.9.2 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: gcc_select ipython_select postgresql_select python_select | ------------------------------------------------------------------------+--- Changes (by ryandesign@…): * status: closed => reopened * cc: mww@…, ryandesign@… (added) * resolution: invalid => * port: python_select => gcc_select ipython_select postgresql_select python_select Comment: It was also [http://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/macports- users/2011-June/024442.html reported on the mailing list], where it was suggested that a "_select" binary should have been left behind, with the sole purpose of printing an error message advising the user how to use "port select". This seems like a great idea, and would avoid these many tickets being filed and users being confused. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/29531#comment:6> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
