[MacPorts] #13313: BUG: 'port clean' depends on variant of uninstalled ports!
#13313: BUG: 'port clean' depends on variant of uninstalled ports! -----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- Reporter: edewitt@mac.com | Owner: macports-dev@lists.macosforge.org Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.5.0 Keywords: parsing variant | -----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- if you attempt to clean all uninstalled ports using the command 'port clean --archive uninstalled' you will receive the error: Error: Error executing darwin_7: nesteedsums is not supported on Panther (OS X 10.3.x). Error: Unable to open port: Error evaluating variant This is one example, many ports (for example GiNaC and cln) also have this problem. It is unclear why this error is occurring on my system as it is running 10.4, but clearly the ability to clean the port should not be dependent on the platform or variants and it is unclear why this parsing problem is occurring in the first place. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/projects/macports/ticket/13313> MacPorts </projects/macports> Ports system for Mac OS

The error return should be wrapped in the 'fetch' phase, probably. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/13313#comment:3> MacPorts </projects/macports> Ports system for Mac OS
