Please add the ADOL-C port. ADOL-C is a library that implements Algorithmic Differentiation by Operator overLoading for C, see ​http://www.coin-or.org/projects/ADOL-C.xml.

Minimal working Portfile attached.

Minimal Portfile.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Thanks. Some observations:

• The modeline and $Id$ lines are missing.
• "universal_variant yes" is the default and can be removed.
• "--disable-dependency-tracking" is added by default when the universal variant is used and is generally not needed when not building universal.
• Unless this configure script is weird, "--libdir=${prefix}/lib" and "--libexecdir=${prefix}/libexec" are the defaults too.
• Livecheck doesn't work.
• "--disable-silent-rules" should be added to configure args to make debug output more verbose.
• It seemed to build fine with ccache so "configure.ccache no" could be removed.

Also, you have indicated "license BSD" but the file LICENSE in the source tarball begins as follows:

THIS PROGRAM IS PROVIDED UNDER THE TERMS OF ONE OF THE TWO
LICENSES, I.E., EITHER THE ECLIPSE PUBLIC LICENSE VERSION 1.0 OR THE
GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE AS GIVEN BELOW. ANY USE, REPRODUCTION OR
DISTRIBUTION OF THE PROGRAM CONSTITUTES THE RECIPIENT'S ACCEPTANCE OF
ONE OF THE TWO AGREEMENTS EPL-1.0 OR GPL-2.0+.

And the project's homepage says: "Project license: Eclipse Public License 1.0 or GNU Gerneral Public License 2.0"

So I've attached a new version of the Portfile with these changes.

Remaining issues I'd want to fix:

• The configure script prints an unnecessary warning about needing the prefix to be writable.
• After the configure phase successfully runs the configure script, the build phase runs it again; I don't yet understand why.

Replying to ryandesign@…:

• Unless this configure script is weird, "--libdir=${prefix}/lib" and "--libexecdir=${prefix}/libexec" are the defaults too.

The configure script is weird. It will install to lib64 unless overridden explicitly. See new attachment, which adds these two lines to your Portfile.

Remaining issues I'd want to fix:

• The configure script prints an unnecessary warning about needing the prefix to be writable.
• After the configure phase successfully runs the configure script, the build phase runs it again; I don't yet understand why.

I think these issues can only be fixed upstream.
