[MacPorts] #44056: grass: upgrade to 7.0.0
#44056: grass: upgrade to 7.0.0 ---------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: mojca@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: Keywords: | Port: grass ---------------------+-------------------------------- Grass developers released version 7.0.0beta2. I prepared [browser:users/mojca/ports/gis/grass a version for testing]. Currently open tickets: * #32797 grass does not ensure it's UsingTheRightCompiler * #40307 grass @6.4.2: Unsupported compiler detected * #42161 grass: compatibility with wxWidgets 3.0 * #42203 grass: allow building without GUI I would suggest to start working on these issues on top of version 7.0 as opposed to trying to fix 6.4. There doesn't seem to be much response from developers about fixing problems in version 6.4, one particular problem is compatibility with wxWidgets 3.0. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/44056> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

We probably need more variants for mysql and maybe less for postgresql. I'm not sure to what extent Grass 7.0.0beta3 works better with wxWidgets 3.0, but I would prefer to drop support for 2.8 if possible as that only confuses matters and wxWidgets is at least supposed to be supported upstream. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/44056#comment:5> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

Thus, I'd suggest something like "grass-beta" for now. Meanwhile, it wouldn't hurt to update the existing port to 6.4.4 on general principles, though that may not help the GUI issues. It also might be worth considering bumping the default Python variant to 2.7. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/44056#comment:7> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

When we want to use grass 7 as default version, we move it to `grass` and `grass-devel` becomes `replaces_by grass`. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/44056#comment:8> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

Once we switch to py27-wxpython-3.0, life will get easier. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/44056#comment:9> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
