[MacPorts] #20051: gnupg2 2.0.11 Package shouldn't have libusb dependency
#20051: gnupg2 2.0.11 Package shouldn't have libusb dependency --------------------------------------------------------------+------------- Reporter: speed.rob@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: Keywords: gpg gnupg libusb scdaemon smartcard "smart card" | Port: gnupg2 --------------------------------------------------------------+------------- Installing gnupg2 also installs the libusb package to support scadaemon, which handles authentication via smart cards. As I doubt a sizable portion of GPG users require this feature I propose it be disabled by default and available as a variant. If smartcard users ''do'' represent a large enough portion of the user base, a no_scdaemon variant to remove the dependency should be available. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/20051> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
