The main part of the portfile is parsed, and then afterward, the variants are parsed. So the variable was not being set to its new value until after master_sites had already been set using the variable's old value. Platform blocks used to behave this way too, but that was changed a few versions of MacPorts ago. Now platform blocks are equivalent to "if" statements. _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev
