Can you provide evidence for this claim? When MacPorts is running on the build
machines, it has no idea it is running in a build machine. It is doing exactly
what it would do on a user's machine.
Perhaps I expressed myself unclearly. I intend that there is no issue on
the build machine, but I have universal on my user system. So if some
automatic dependency would kick in to make it universal, it should
happen there too, shouldn't it?
What I know is that I never install python3.. It is always a dependency
for me, so it gets installed as requested (exception is pesky python2.7
which I still need for ArcticFox and TenFourFox).
However, I tried:
port -v installed rdependentof:python310 | grep -F i386
shows nothing, so I guess nothing right now wants it i386.
also
port installed requested
shows many ports, but no python3 port shows - as I would expect.
If you do not actually want python310 installed with the universal variant,
then install it without that variant.
There is no built-in command to reinstall all ports without the universal
variant. You can use a shell command pipeline to get the list of ports that are
installed with the universal variant and reinstall them without that variant.
I've probably posted such a command pipeline to this list or the other one many
years ago, although that probably predated the tracking of requested variants
and thus probably will not correctly preserve them.
First, I did run a "port reclaim". Then I can redo:
$ port -v installed rdependentof:python310
The following ports are currently installed:
py310-cairo @1.27.0_0+quartz (active)
requested_variants='+quartz-x11' platform='darwin 15' archs='x86_64'
date='2024-11-22T22:20:47+0100'
py310-gobject3 @3.46.0_0 (active) requested_variants=''
platform='darwin 15' archs='x86_64' date='2023-10-12T01:48:38+0200'
Apparently... nothing I explicitly asked to install requires python310
sudo port uninstall python310 py310-gobject3 py310-cairo
and it is gone. Now, if all is fine, I should have nothing left that
requires universal, but I have some installed ports left:
port installed | grep universal
bzip2 @1.0.8_0+universal (active)
expat @2.6.4_0+universal (active)
gettext-runtime @0.22.5_0+universal (active)
libedit @20250104-3.1_0+universal (active)
libffi @3.4.6_1+universal (active)
libiconv @1.17_0+universal (active)
libomp @19.1.7_0+universal (active)
ncurses @6.5_0+universal (active)
openssl @3_22+universal (active)
openssl3 @3.4.1_0+universal (active)
sqlite3 @3.49.1_0+universal (active)
xz @5.6.4_0+universal (active)
zlib @1.3.1_0+universal (active)
I imagine however that they will not rebuild by themselves as
non-universal? I did not enough to heal things, but the universal might
propagate again, wouldn't it?
I'ld like to rebuild these without breaking dependencies or rebuilding
uninstalling too much...
