#8221: RFE: port upgrade should consider variants when computing dependencies --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: ryandesign@… | Owner: gwhitney@… Type: enhancement | Status: closed Priority: Normal | Milestone: MacPorts 1.8.0 Component: base | Version: Resolution: fixed | Keywords: Port: | --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment(by devans@…): It still does not honor variants set in variants.conf. In my case, building gimp2 in a MacPorts installation where +no_x11 +quartz is set in variants.conf. {{{ port upgrade gimp2 }}} follows the default variants in dependencies causing X11 libraries to be installed but {{{ port deactivate gimp2 port install gimp2 }}} works correctly. So I think you need to add support for variants in variants.conf. Note that this also happens for port deps {{{ port deps gtk2 (with variants +no_x11 +quartz in variants.conf) gtk2 has build dependencies on: pkgconfig gtk-doc gtk2 has library dependencies on: cairo fontconfig freetype glib2 jpeg tiff libiconv libpng jasper atk pango gettext zlib xorg-libXi xorg-libXrandr xorg-libXcursor xorg-libXinerama xorg-libXdamage xorg-libXcomposite xorg-libXfixes gtk2 has runtime dependencies on: shared-mime-info }}} which always shows dependencies based on the default variants without regard to variants.conf but {{{ port deps gtk2 +no_x11 gtk2 has build dependencies on: pkgconfig gtk-doc gtk2 has library dependencies on: cairo fontconfig freetype glib2 jpeg tiff libiconv libpng jasper atk pango gettext zlib gtk2 has runtime dependencies on: shared-mime-info }}} Perhaps there is shared code? -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/8221#comment:18> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
