Making it depend on python_select would be a good idea however.

As python_select can't depend on any specific version of python, this won't work.

As rubber works very well with Apple's python, it does work. I've made the change in r37471.

Until we get a better dependency engine, my advice would be to add variants for each python version (+python24, +python25 etc.).

This should be done by python_select, not by rubber or any other port that does not install as a python package. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/15477#comment:7> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

Specifying the python binary to use with --python=${prefix}/bin/python will not point to a python executable if the user has not specified a python version using python_select.

After installing python_select, {{{ % ls -l /opt/local/bin/python lrwxrwxrwx 1 11 2008-06-10 10:52 /opt/local/bin/python -> /usr/bin/python }}} This is enough for rubber to work. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/15477#comment:9> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
