Hey Shoesers!
I just put some finishing touches on a PortFile for MacPorts that'll
make it easier for people to build the latest version of Shoes. I
think it's okay, but I'd like some help testing it. I'd really like
to hear how it works on machines other than my own.
To test it you'll need to grab the latest PortFile from GitHub http://github.com/waltz/shoes-macports
and you'll need to create a local port repository.http://guide.macports.org/#development.local-repositories
Once you've got that setup you can install with a quick 'sudo port
install shoes' or 'sudo port install shoes +latest' for the latest
Shoes source.
Will do.
The script currently installs shoes to /Applications/Shoes.app so it
might give some complaint if you already have a version there. (What
do you guys think of this behavior?)
MacPorts usually install binaries in /opt/local/bin and the few apps
in /Applications/Macports. For uninstallation this is an advantage.
However most people won't use if it's there, so I kind of agree with
that behavior. However I don't know if there are any restrictions to
be able to get it in macports main repo.
