Could it be updated to fix this? -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/39079> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

If you want to provide a patch, I'll include it. Otherwise, I'll be closing this as 'wontfix' the next time I get review my tickets.
I had been working on a patch in my local fork of the gdb-apple tree, and I have not been able to fix it to get the MacsBug plugin to build from within it... It seems to be expecting all of the gdb components (bfd, binutils, opcodes, gdb itself, and so on) to be installed as Frameworks in the System folder, which I am pretty sure MacPorts is not allowed to touch... also the Makefile keeps referring to using this tool called "buildit" to build the plugin, and the only software called "buildit" that I was able to find online did not seem to be the same thing, so I am assuming that "buildit" must be some sort of Apple Internal tool that I do not have access to... anyways I will keep this on my todo list, but probably will not be coming up with a patch any time soon... -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/39079#comment:3> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
