Hi Chris,
Thank you for the apology, much appreciated.
I appreciate trying to short-circuit the back and forth. When I saw your
initial request for a single Portfile for py-tensorflow{,1}, my hunch was that
it was going to be hard with the Python PG’s subports, but I took 10-15 minutes
looking through other ports to see if there was existing work that did this. So
I didn’t take it well to short-circuit the discussion.
Also, I am a native speaker.
In any case, all is good. looking forward to continue to working with you on
MacPorts.
Best,
Blair
