#2684: RFE: add version glob handling to port clean --dist -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Reporter: rshaw@opendarwin.org | Owner: macports-tickets@lists.macosforge.org Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: MacPorts base enhancements Component: base | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Old description:

Hi Robert! Just wanted to make a short suggestion/request. Would it be possible to include the ability to provide either an exact version or a glob pattern to other than the '--archive' switch of the clean target? I just attempted an update of my installed ports and found myself still doing a lot of manual cleaning, specially with distfiles. Here's why I ask:

$[juan@PowerBook: juan](25/0,1)-> ls /opt/local/var/db/dports/distfiles/adium/ total 28768 -rw-r--r-- 1 root admin 6M 25 Jan 00:24 AdiumX_Source_0.75.1.tar.gz -rw-r--r-- 1 root admin 7M 31 Jan 23:48 AdiumX_Source_0.76.tar.gz

$[juan@PowerBook: juan](26/0,1)-> sudo port -d clean --dist adium 0.75.1 DEBUG: Found port in file:///usr/local/OpenDarwin/darwinports/dports/aqua/adium DEBUG: Changing to port directory: /usr/local/OpenDarwin/darwinports/dports/aqua/adium DEBUG: Requested variant powerpc is not provided by port adium.

$[juan@PowerBook: juan](27/0,1)-> ls /opt/local/var/db/dports/distfiles/adium/ ls: /opt/local/var/db/dports/distfiles/adium/: No such file or directory

I tried to remove *only* the 0.75.1 Adium distfile in a similar fashion as I would have done with the archives, but instead all of them were nuked in one go along with distfiles/adium dir. Can this be improved?

Regards,...

Juan
