#47051: pass @1.6.5 add variant for gnupg21 dependency --------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: edwin@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: pass | --------------------------+-------------------------------- Comment (by john@…): Thanks for this too. However, rather than introducing a variant, I think a bin dependency would be the way to go. That is: {{{ depends_run bin:gpg2:gnupg2 }}} This will use the `gpg2` executable provided by either `gnupg2` or `gnupg21` if one is installed, or otherwise install `gnupg2`. Note that I've not actually tried this in practice -- I'll do so when I get chance, but feel free to see if it works for you and submit a new patch if you have time. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/47051#comment:1> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

Usually we do not want that. If you only want to allow binaries provided by MacPorts ports to satisfy the dependency, but there are multiple ports that could provide it, then use a `path:`-style dependency (`path:bin/gpg2:gnupg2`). -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/47051#comment:5> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
