Is there a general conf setting I can change
so that port output is always verbose during the
build (or just a specific phase)? It is nice that
port spews out the compilation when a compile time
error is hit but while working up packaging I would
like to see the actual build in detail.
There's no conf setting; you must use the "-d" switch every time.
sudo port -d install something
Due to the volume of information printed by the -d switch, its use
can cause you to overlook important messages ports sometimes print
out. For developing your own portfiles using -d is great and
helpful, but for general use, I recommend you install and upgrade
ports without the -d flag, and if you encounter an error, then clean
the affected port and try again with -d to see the full error.
You might consider making an alias in your .profile (or .bashrc ... or
whatever).
alias port='port -d'
