[MacPorts] #15854: swig: python variant should depend on python_select
#15854: swig: python variant should depend on python_select ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- Reporter: ram@macports.org | Owner: kevin@macports.org Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Enhancements Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0 Keywords: python swig | ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- The python variant of swig currently depends explicitly on python25, where all it actually needs is a python as the installed product doesn't actually depend on a specific python version. It would therefore make more sense if the dependency for the python variant was python_select instead. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/15854> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

So an installation of swig without a previous python install will fail with this patch. I would recommend to create variants for +python24 and +python25. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/15854#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
