If I understand Guido's suggestion, the workaround is to the Portfile, not to trunk, right? Who wants to fix it?

AFAIK, the fix hasn't even been committed to trunk yet...

MacPorts 1.4.40 was released, so I hope the fix made it into that...

Why can't we get the work-around committed for now? A lot of things depend on ncurses, and it's a fallacy to assume that a lot of people don't track trunk and it can be safely broken for periods of time. :-(

Oh hrm, it didn't occur to me that this would happen, but I know exactly why.

However, I'm on vacation. Can this wait a week? It's a problem that only affects trunk.

After the changes to the "file delete" implementation, the installation of ncurses fails because it tries to follow the target of a symbolic link.


By reversing the order of the arguments from

delete ${destroot}${prefix}/share ${destroot}${prefix}/lib/ terminfo

into

delete ${destroot}${prefix}/lib/terminfo ${destroot}${prefix}/ share

ncurses installs correctly (lib/terminfo is a symbolic link to ../share/terminfo).
