#18450: python26: please remove indirect dependency on xorg-libs --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: arsptr@… | Owner: blb@… Type: enhancement | Status: closed Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.7.0 Resolution: wontfix | Keywords: Port: python26 | --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Changes (by blb@…): * status: new => closed * resolution: => wontfix Comment: Splitting such ports is how it works currently with 2.5, but that has issues (#12369). Also, IDLE.app won't work without tkinter. Finally, in order to create an install which is compatible with what you get from [http://www.python.org/ python.org], disabling modules is a bad idea. Note that the tk port does have a +quartz variant, but I have not tested whether tkinter is compatible with it out of the box. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/18450#comment:2> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

I hate all these friggin xorg libs and the bloody tk wont build with +quartz on snow leopard.

Note that the entirety of xorg items brought in by tk are less than the python26 port itself (both in disk space used and time to compile). It's definitely nowhere near all of xorg... Also, python26 has a +no_tkinter variant to disable the Tkinter parts. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/18450#comment:5> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
