I am working on a portfile for libressl. I set some options like so:
use_autoconf yes
use_automake yes

multiple times.
That's a bug, the dependencies should not be added twice in that case.
Okay, thanks Ryan and Josh for clarifying. I was confused by two separate
issues which led me to a wrong conclusion. I can use autoreconf though it
seems like overkill in this situation.
As for the bug, I was about to ask, as an enhancement request, if the logic
which expands use_auto{tools} could also determine a unified set of
dependencies. Is this reasonable?
What do you mean, "unified set of dependencies"?
Whether you use "use_autoconf yes" or "use_autoreconf yes" or "use_automake yes", the
build dependencies "port:autoconf port:automake port:libtool" will be added. The bug is that if you use more
than one of those directives, then the three dependencies get added multiple times each, when they should only be added
once each. This is a cosmetic bug but is functionally harmless.
I see. Well, I am just trying to get up to speed with MacPorts, so
which is recommended since both are functionally equivalent in this case?
"use_autoconf yes" and "use_automake yes" and ignore lint warnings
OR
"use_autoreconf yes" until the bug is fixed
