#52318: libproxy KDE variant modifications
-------------------------+--------------------------------
Reporter: rjvbertin@… | Owner: macports-tickets@…
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: Normal | Milestone:
Component: ports | Version:
Keywords: haspatch | Port: libproxy
-------------------------+--------------------------------
The current port:libproxy's +KDE variant doesn't actually have any effect.
The KDE module is built even without it.
In itself that's fine because that module now has a pure runtime
dependency on KDE, but that also means that the +KDE variant no longer
needs to pull in hard KDE dependencies.
The attached patch is a proposition. Since it's entirely unclear what use
the KDE module has I have decided not to make it depend on any KDE or Qt
port because a priori it won't even be used if no KDE software asks for
it. And I have yet to find evidence that this is the case. There are no
repercussions on the reproducible build principle.
I did include one additional change: with KDE being based on Qt/Cocoa (=
using native APIs) it seems reasonable to let libproxy use native APIs
too.
Is there a reason why this isn't the default, BTW, why libproxy isn't
always built against native APIs which allow it to actually detect the
system proxy correctly?
