port inactive - not really inactive?

2009-11-07 Thread Darren Weber
What's an explanation for this apparent anomaly:

$ port echo inactive
binutils   @2.20_0
g95@0.91_1+darwin_9
gnupg  @1.4.10_0
gnutar @1.22_0
hdf5-18@1.8.3_0
hdf5-18@1.8.3_1
snip

$ sudo port uninstall inactive
---  Uninstalling binutils @2.20_0
---  Uninstalling g95 @0.91_1+darwin_9
---  Unable to uninstall gnupg 1.4.10_0, the following ports depend on it:
---  p5-module-signature
Error: port uninstall failed: Please uninstall the ports that depend on
gnupg first.

$ port installed gnupg
The following ports are currently installed:
  gnupg @1.4.10_0

$ port installed gnupg*
The following ports are currently installed:
  gnupg @1.4.10_0
  gnupg2 @2.0.13_0+darwin (active)

$ port installed p5-module*
The following ports are currently installed:
  p5-module-build @0.35_0 (active)
  p5-module-signature @0.55_0 (active)

$ port deps p5-module-signature
Full Name: p5-module-signature @0.55
Library Dependencies: perl5, gnupg, p5-digest-sha


How is it possible for p5-module-signature to depend on an inactive port?
Is this an indication to fix this with:

$ sudo port install gnupg
Password:
---  Computing dependencies for gnupg
---  Activating gnupg @1.4.10_0
---  Cleaning gnupg

$ port installed gnupg*
The following ports are currently installed:
  gnupg @1.4.10_0 (active)
  gnupg2 @2.0.13_0+darwin (active)


TIA,
Darren

You have to be able to deactivate ports with dependents, or you would
never be able to activate a different version...
