Including the private headers would make, e.g., maintaining the port expect easier. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/17189#comment:2> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

Would that fix #13827? -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/17189#comment:4> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

Don't remember what, but if I had time to dredge up an old ticket from 3-4 years ago it would give details because at one time the private headers were installed by default briefly until the problems were noticed. I suppose if the variant were commented well it might be ok. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/17189#comment:5> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

That, and other outdated Tcl-related ports. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/17189#comment:11> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
