To get a symlink called python pointing to it, use python_select as Jeremy said: You need python_select -- it allows you to change which python you use. But note that while python_select can be convenient if you want to use python on the command line, IMHO no port should require that the user use python_select. Any port that requires Python should never attempt to use a binary called python; it should always use the versioned binary installed by the corresponding port, for example the binary python2.6 installed by the python26 port. You may need to add some patches and/or reinplaces to your port to get the software you're porting to do this. ___ macports-dev mailing list macports-dev@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-dev

All the users who come to MacPorts, give it a go, then go away without reporting the errors that cause them to give up. It's probably better to be missing a port than to have potential users wasting time with a broken port. Why don't they report the problems? Well, perhaps because they need to install the software today, they've wasted time already, they need to move on. Or perhaps they don't understand, or even know about the reporting process. Or perhaps they think they have nothing useful to say; they don't know why the port failed, and assume someone else must already be onto it. There's no easy way to tell whether the problem has already been reported.

I clearly copied the portfile of the old versions, converted them to my own conventions (e.g. tabs instead of spaces) and then tested them. They were by no means meant to be drop-in replacement for the old Portfiles, but just transitory files for those eager to upgrade by a semi-official way. Note that for MacPorts we have standardized on spaces instead of tabs, so a commit to reverse that would not be ideal. Many ports were written before this policy went into effect, which is why you still see ports with tabs in the tree, but if anything we should be changing tabs to spaces, not the other way around. I'm a bit baffled that saispo is not the maintainer of py26-sip since I did not alter that line in any way. :) In the case of py26-sip it was easy to check, since there has only been one version of the port. http://trac.macports.org/log/trunk/dports/python/py26-sip The two additional commits were by me and were just to set svn properties that were forgotten initially. I have some new ports ready, but they are based on SVN versions. Shall I commit them anyway? If they are your ports, or openmaintainer or nomaintainer ports, then by all means yes! But do keep in mind the rule of one logical change per commit. If they are not your ports and are not openmaintainer, then file a ticket, assign it to the maintainer, and attach your proposed changes.

Thank you for your work on this, Florian! Some friendly criticism: I imagine you've been working on this for awhile, and since this is an open source project, it would have been nice to know you were working on this, and to have the code in the MacPorts repository (the users area would have been a good place for it during development). You said you wrote this with Rails and CouchDB. While I understand the desire to write using technologies you're familiar with, MacPorts is written in Tcl, and the main MacPorts web site is written in PHP and MySQL, and it would be nice to not introduce new technologies if possible, so as to lower the barrier to entry for other developers. It's easy for me to say, since I am very familiar with PHP and MySQL, and do not know and had not planned to know Rails and CouchDB.

I think the idea of a central build and testing server is the best part of this project to start on. Users can and do have nonstandard things on their machines which can cause builds to fail, and an automated build log posting wouldn't contain such information; as you've no doubt seen in mailing list discussions, it often has to be dragged out of the user that they have things installed in /usr/local or /sw or they are using an outdated version of Xcode. If we get a central testing server, extending that to packaging and distributing binaries should be straightforward.

Re: Removing configure options
I tried configure.args-delete, do I have to quote it? configure.args-delete --prefix=/opt/local Thanks On Jun 8, 2009, at 10:46 PM, Jeremy Lavergne wrote: Check out this command for ideas on why prefix isn't working: ./configure --help If you need to override the configure arguments in MacPorts, that's done via configure.args-append and configure.args-delete On Jun 9, 2009, at 1:43 AM, Scott Haneda wrote: I have the most basic of a port file and I can not get it to work.

Re: Removing configure options
My apologies: the prefix is located in configure.pre_args. Please try: configure.pre_args-delete --prefix=/opt/local I believe you shouldn't need to quote it unless there's a space in it.
