pthsem: configure is not longer available

[mail@…]

the build has to use autoconf/automake instead (at least as long as a git checkout has to be used instead of a tarball)

[ryandesign@…]

If this port used to work, then it sounds like a problem is that the port does not always install the same software -- it installs whatever's at the head of the git repository. The port should instead assure that always the same version of software is used, for example by using the git.branch keyword.

But this brings up a point: why is the port using git and not the tarball available on the project's web site?

[mail@…]

1. the port is using git instead of the tarball, because the changes for Mac OS X are ot available in the tarball yet. I've talked to the developer, he will release a new version at mid 2010, after that i will retarget the port to the tarball.

2. The portfile has now a git.branch, which points to the (at this moment) head.

Thanks for looking into it ;)

Cc Me!

I'd suggest using use_autoreconf yes in place of all the manual commands. Once it builds successfully for me I'll commit it.

[snc@…]

Also, if I'm not mistaken, 2.0.8 is available?

[snc@…]

successfully installed 2.0.8

[snc@…]

I've attached my diff of the portfile for 2.0.8. Let me know if it's okay and I'll commit it.

[mail@…]

now configure is used (instead of autoconf/automake) and no git checkout, should we ommit

depends_build

port:autoconf \ port:automake \ port:git-core

Replying to mail@…:

Yes, good point. I missed the deps as I was removing the macro instead.

[snc@…]

Is everything okay with the patch I posted (in addition to axing the deps listed above?

[mail@…]

Yep, everything works fine for me on 10.5 and 10.6 :)
