You should use the github portgroup instead of reimplementing its functionality in your portfile. Yes, I've had to edit Xcode project files to remove settings that don't make sense for MacPorts. I don't know if there's a better way. I don't know why it would create a symlink instead of copying the actual file. I haven't looked at this particular project's Xcode project file. _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list macports-dev@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev
