Source code and pkgs for MacPorts 2.3.0-beta2 are now available [1]. Testing of either of these install methods is helpful.
Be prepared to encounter bugs. As always, having a recent backup would be wise. Please report any bugs that you find [2] (after first searching Trac [3], of course!) There are a large number of changes in this release. See the ChangeLog [4] for a list of most of them. You may like to focus your testing on the new features in that list, as well as your normal usage. Notable changes since beta1 are: * Added a port-tclsh link for the use of contrib scripts, and removed the requirement for them to source macports_fastload.tcl. * Fixed pkg_mkIndex failure at build time on Leopard and Tiger * Fixes for trace mode when not running as root * Fixed an error when executing portfiles from the registry Known issue: make install will fail on Tiger due to chmod not accepting the -h option. A fix is already on the branch: <https://trac.macports.org/changeset/119298> Cheers, Josh [1] <https://distfiles.macports.org/MacPorts/testing/> [2] <https://trac.macports.org/newticket> [3] <https://trac.macports.org/search> [4] <https://trac.macports.org/browser/branches/release_2_3/base/ChangeLog> _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users
