So I'm running MacPorts from trunk and I see that a gnu livecheck
option was added. But the livecheck on two of my ports seems to have
broken as a result.
First libiconv:
$ sudo port -dv livecheck libiconv
DEBUG: Found port in file:///Users/rschmidt/macports/dports/textproc/
libiconv
DEBUG: Changing to port directory: /Users/rschmidt/macports/dports/
textproc/libiconv
DEBUG: Requested variant darwin is not provided by port libiconv.
DEBUG: Requested variant i386 is not provided by port libiconv.
DEBUG: Requested variant macosx is not provided by port libiconv.
DEBUG: Executing variant darwin_8 provides darwin_8
DEBUG: Skipping completed org.macports.main (libiconv)
DEBUG: Executing org.macports.livecheck (libiconv)
DEBUG: Portfile modification date is Tue Sep 11 19:22:28 CDT 2007
DEBUG: Port (livecheck) version is 1.11
DEBUG: Fetching http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/:gnu/?C=M&O=D
Error: cannot check if libiconv was updated (HTTP response code said
error)
libiconv seems to be up to date
$
"http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/:gnu/?C=M&O=D"; is clearly wrong. libiconv
downloads from gnu, but it's specified this way:
homepage http://www.gnu.org/software/libiconv/
master_sites \
gnu::gnu \
http://www2d.biglobe.ne.jp/~msyk/software/libiconv/:cp932fix
If I change the download location to:
master_sites \
gnu:${name}:gnu \
http://www2d.biglobe.ne.jp/~msyk/software/libiconv/:cp932fix
Then the livecheck says:
$ sudo port -dv livecheck
DEBUG: Changing to port directory: /Users/rschmidt/macports/dports/
textproc/libiconv
DEBUG: Requested variant darwin is not provided by port libiconv.
DEBUG: Requested variant i386 is not provided by port libiconv.
DEBUG: Requested variant macosx is not provided by port libiconv.
DEBUG: Executing variant darwin_8 provides darwin_8
DEBUG: Changing to port directory: /Users/rschmidt/macports/dports/
textproc/libiconv
DEBUG: Requested variant darwin is not provided by port libiconv.
DEBUG: Requested variant i386 is not provided by port libiconv.
DEBUG: Requested variant macosx is not provided by port libiconv.
DEBUG: Executing variant darwin_8 provides darwin_8
Portfile changed since last build; discarding previous state.
DEBUG: Executing org.macports.main (libiconv)
DEBUG: Executing org.macports.livecheck (libiconv)
DEBUG: Portfile modification date is Tue Oct 16 12:49:56 CDT 2007
DEBUG: Port (livecheck) version is 1.11
DEBUG: Fetching http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/libiconv:gnu/?C=M&O=D
Error: cannot check if libiconv was updated (HTTP response code said
error)
libiconv seems to be up to date
$
As you can see, it still hasn't got the right project name.
I fixed it by adding "livecheck.name ${name}" but that should have
been the default, shouldn't it?
Next problem is freetype:
$ sudo port -dv livecheck freetype
DEBUG: Found port in file:///Users/rschmidt/macports/dports/print/
freetype
DEBUG: Changing to port directory: /Users/rschmidt/macports/dports/
print/freetype
DEBUG: Requested variant darwin is not provided by port freetype.
DEBUG: Requested variant i386 is not provided by port freetype.
DEBUG: Requested variant macosx is not provided by port freetype.
DEBUG: Skipping completed org.macports.main (freetype)
DEBUG: Executing org.macports.livecheck (freetype)
DEBUG: Portfile modification date is Thu Jul 05 16:55:44 CDT 2007
DEBUG: Port (livecheck) version is 2.3.5
DEBUG: Fetching http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/freetype/?C=M&O=D
Error: cannot check if freetype was updated (HTTP response code said

freetype seems to be up to date
$
Here's what the portfile says:
homepage http://freetype.sourceforge.net/
master_sites \
http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/freetype/ \
sourceforge
Freetype never used to check the GNU web site for its livecheck info.
Why did it start doing so? Just because the first master site
contains "gnu"? I fixed it by adding "livecheck.check sourceforge"
but I wonder how many other ports are affected by this.
