I would like to add a variant to the boost port that installs the
optional Adobe gil numeric extension. (See point 4 at <http://
opensource.adobe.com/wiki/display/gil/Downloads> for a description.)
The process for installing this extension is to simply untar the
folder from <http://opensource.adobe.com/wiki/download/attachments/
3866769/numeric.tar.gz>
and then move the extracted folder to </opt/local/include/
boost-1_35/boost/gil/extension/numeric> (or the equivalent destroot
location I suppose).
How would I write this as a variant?
Start by filing a ticket in the issue tracker...
Then, in the variant, you would append to the distfiles and the
checksums. See the graphviz port's gui variant for a way to do that.
You can also define a post-extract phase inside the variant to do an
necessary moving of the extracted items.
