I didn't realize that was the plan we had settled on, but I haven't been
following MacPorts developments that closely this year.
I saw the commits from you to base, changing the default stdlib to libc++ on
10.6-10.8. Looks like your proposal is for users to run rev-upgrade after
upgrading.
What is the plan for the buildbot and our prebuilt archives? Obviously we would
need to rebuild all of the archives for C++ software on 10.6-10.8. Since you
are not planning on changing the archive filenames or their location on the
packages server, and since the buildbot uses the presence of the archives on
the packages server as an indicator that the ports have already been built, the
buildbot will not know that it should rebuild them. I imagine we will have to
manually identify all the ports that use C++, remove their archives from the
packages server, uninstall them on the 10.6-10.8 buildbot workers, and then
trigger new builds for them.
