#14181: Option to not write state for simple operations ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: wsiegrist@apple.com | Owner: macports-tickets@lists.macosforge.org Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: MacPorts base enhancements Component: base | Version: 1.6.0 Keywords: port options state | ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Some operations, like lint, who perform a simple read-only operation do not really need a lot of state tracking. It would be nice to have an option that prevents writing to the state file during this operation. This can help do some things with the port command without root (write) privileges. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/14181> MacPorts </projects/macports> Ports system for Mac OS
