id summary reporter owner description type status priority milestone component version resolution keywords cc port 16589 DEFECT: ffmpeg -version fails to report correct svn revision dbevans mf2k "Building using the existing Portfile, the command ''ffmpeg -version'' yields {{{ FFmpeg version UNKNOWN, Copyright (c) 2000-2008 Fabrice Bellard, et al. }}} The ffmpeg makefiles depend on the existence of svn metadata to determine the correct svn revision but the current Portfile fetches the distribution using ''svn export'' resulting in no metadata. The attached patch to the Portfile uses ''svn co'' in the fetch phase to insure that the correct svn metadata is included. In addition, a pre-fetch phase is included to forcably delete a pre-existing distribution, prior to the fetch phase, if it does not contain metadata. This ensures that an existing installation will correctly upgrade in the presence of a pre-existing svn distribution without metadata. After building with the modified Portfile, ''ffmpeg -version'' yields {{{ FFmpeg version SVN-r14381, Copyright (c) 2000-2008 Fabrice Bellard, et al. }}} " defect closed Normal ports 1.7.0 fixed ffmpeg acho@… ffmpeg
