I have a similar issue with a Symfony based project, called OroCRM. Basically all it installs are some templates, a few php files and symfony/composer configuration. In other words, after installation you haven't got a working product, but still have to run composer and download a bunch of stuff. To port this software I see that I have two choices: 1) I install it as the project itself [1] wants you to and thus the user has nothing to show for it. 2) I do the composer-dance myself, package and put it up for download. This has the downside that any local changes to the composer configuration file will not be picked up and I may break the application with upgrades. What would be advisable in this case?

maven and ports that try to fetch files during build stage
Hello; Some java ports, especially from ASF projects, commonly use maven to build and maven is meant to be a ports-like system to fetch dependencies as part of the build. Maven has it's own repository: http://search.maven.org/#browse This is a problem with the Apache POI port but it is also an issue with a potential Apache hadoop update: apparently our cluster doesn't like ports that download stuff as part of their build so Apache POI is broken. While it should be possible to independently pre-download all the dependencies and extract them were Maven needs them, this tends to make the use of Maven for ports a lot of work. Anyone has a good idea on how this should be dealt with?
