I guess because when Joshua implemented --enforce-variants he did it as an option for the upgrade command, and not also as an option for the install command. Flags (like "--enforce-variants") which go after the verb (i.e. after "upgrade" or after "install") are flags that are specific to that verb. Flags that go after "port" and before the verb (i.e. "-d", "-f", "-v") are global and apply to every verb. So, short answer: because nobody got around to doing that yet. _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users
