#50070: submission: icons themes Ciment, Mate and Menta --------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: rjvbertin@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: submission | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: Port: | --------------------------+-------------------------------- Comment (by rjvbertin@…): You're saying I should have used `depends_extract` even if the dependency isn't actually for extracting? Indeed, I noticed that the shipped autogen.sh wants to use mate-common. I didn't really want to look into installing that, because I have a hunch it means pulling in way more than is reasonable for installing just an icon theme. In fact, my first approach was to try and remove the whole internationalisation aspect. That would still have my preference; all the .mo files are apparently deleted during the install (destroot) step. As you'd expect; there's nothing to translate in icons. Do you see anything I missed in trying to circumvent this whole step? I'll have to find a moment to have another look just what is different between the installed icon files and the source directory they come from. A priori it should be possible to gain a lot of time by copying the icon files directly into the required directory structure. The combined autoreconf + configure + build step takes a surprising amount of time. That's fine if it does important things, but not if it's just burning CPU for nothing. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/50070#comment:2> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

However, I see the autogen.sh script is special and wants to run a special mate-autogen program from the mate-common package. Did you look into that already?

I followed another approach. Rather than using the provided autogen.sh+configure+build+install only to provide translations in the index.theme file, I wrote a dedicated `destroot` block that gets the required files from `filespath`. I've left in the original code as a comment; maybe I should put it in a variant for when I need to regenerate the 3 files in questions. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/50070#comment:4> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
