[MacPorts] #20665: read only binary archive doesn't allow installing new ports
#20665: read only binary archive doesn't allow installing new ports --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: saml@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Low | Milestone: MacPorts Future Component: base | Version: 1.7.1 Keywords: | Port: --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- I have macports installed on multiple computers. 2 computers have write access to the binary archive path, so I can prebuild packages that I'm installing multiple times. However; on occasion I have a package I might only want to install on one computer and don't want to hassle with building it for the binary archive. When I try to install it on the computer with read-only access to the archive, it gives up when it can't write the archive. What would be the better option would be to continue and give a warning when it can't write the archive. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/20665> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
