#20135: file-4.26: update to 5.03 ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: boeyms@… | Owner: jay-macports@… Type: update | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.7.1 Keywords: | Port: file ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ file has been updated to version 5.03; attached is a Portfile patch to perform this update. It performs the following: * updates the version and revision numbers; * updates the checksums; * updates the homepage; and * removes {{{patch-src-file.h.diff}}} since it has been incorporated into file-5.03. Additionally, have the other three patches in the {{{files}}} directory ({{{patch-lzma.diff}}}, {{{patch-magic-Magdir-msdos.diff}}} and {{{patch- magic-Makefile.in.diff}}}) been submitted upstream? If not, they might like to hear about them. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/20135> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

I don't really understand what that's supposed to accomplish. :( -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/20135#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

Anyone know? As for the patches - I remember thinking that I should do that when I took over the port, but I have no evidence that I actually did it. I have a vague recollection of deciding that some or all were obsolete. I'll take a closer look this weekend, and get these patches pushed. I think the lzma patch was for a "future" file format that never actually made it into the wild... -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/20135#comment:4> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

I further added a note to the port description indicating that the missing functionality can be achieved via otool. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/20135#comment:7> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

I think the lzma patch was for a "future" file format that never actually made it into the wild... The lzma patch was added upstream, just that "new LZMA" was renamed to XZ. See http://tukaani.org/xz/
