It is intentional. The build dependency might contain a static library you're linking with. MacPorts doesn't know. > Could one work around this "feature" via a special "interface" port, say, > python-interpreterX.Y, which sets installs_libs to no and otherwise simply > depends on pythonX.Y? Yes, one could modify the python ports to have the interpreter in a separate subport from the libraries. > If the installs_libs setting is a sufficient barrier to "stop" the +universal > variant from propagating, no changes to base would be required... Yes, a port that indicates "installs_libs no" will not have its architectures verified. _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev
