Citando Boey Maun Suang :Hi Emmanuel,Yesterday, port -v outdated informed me that there was a "new" version of MPlayer available: Mplayer 1.0rc1_4 > 1.0rc1_try3 !The revision field in Portfiles is only supposed to be used for updates or fixes to the Portfile that don't involve upstream changes, and furthermore is only intended to contain positive integer values. In this case, thePortfile should have been altered from: version 1.0rc1 revision 4 to: version 1.0rc1try3(i.e. the revision number should have been removed; it should default to 0).Eric, would you be able to make this change? I don't think that it will muck up the revisioning, since the version comparison algorithm used in MacPorts will report 1.0rc1 < 1.0rc1try3. I suspect that Emmanuel had to force MacPorts to upgrade Mplayer in the first instance, as his outputindicates that MacPorts thought on the basis of the strings that theinstalled version is newer than the "updated" version, so not many users will have installed the current version in the tree (including myself :P ).
my bad here... I was trying to do the minimal amount of hacking to deal with MPlayer's stupid non-versions. My testing didn't turn up any cases where revision was expected to be numerical, and 't' is > '4' so it did correctly detect as being newer.
PS: * the upgrade did not go perfectly, I had to change the Portfile torevert the dependency on lzo instead of lzo2. I will put a ticket on track.Not sure about this one. Eric, I suppose it's over to you!It is almost resolved:http://trac.macports.org/projects/macports/ticket/12196 . It is more orless my bad for not deinstalling lzo after installing lzo2.
Not really your fault, I had the -I ordering wrong. But since almost nothing needs lzo1 most people should uninstall it once they upgrade. Could someone apply the change in that ticket and commit?
Thanks, Eric
