bison23 port needed

Reported by: ryandesign@… Owned by: mww@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 1.6.0
Keywords: Cc: mcalhoun@…
Port: bison, bison23

Description

bison was updated to 2.4 but bison 2.4 is incompatible with some software that requires bison, like  pure-devel and  libidl. We should make a new port bison23 based off the 2.3_2 version of the bison port and modify it to install files in a new place, so both can be installed at the same time.

pure (r45033) and pure-devel (r45032) now work with bison 2.4. Perhaps the developers of libidl could use a method similar to the one used in pure to become compatible with bison 2.4, and then we wouldn't need a bison23 port?

  • status changed from new to closed
  • resolution set to wontfix

libidl works with bison 2.4 as of 0.8.12; libidl in MacPorts is already at 0.8.13. So it seems the need for a bison23 port has passed.
