#11602 closed defect (worksforme)

depends_lib (silently) only takes one argument

Reported by: john@… Owned by: macports-tickets@…
Priority: High Milestone:
Component: base Version:
Keywords: Cc:

Description

depends_lib (and presumably, though I haven't checked, depends_build, ...) check only one dependency and ignore anything else you may supply. Thus if you have the line:

depends_lib port:teTeX port:xkeyval

everything will be happy as long as teTeX is installed (until you get to the build phase that requires xkeyval).

I would prefer it if depends_lib took multiple dependencies (it's more in line with distfile...) but if it only takes one it should complain if it gets more than one.

Resolution: worksforme
Status: newclosed

works for me - i've attached a sample portfile (an altered nano port) - i have ncurses but not svk, hence macports starts to build svk, everything in order.
