Description

Does this actually need python25 or would a newer version like python27 work? If so we should use that.

Python 2.7 works indeed. I attached a Portfile that uses python27 but I'm not sure it's 100% correct. Especially, the installed command is /opt/local/bin/pdfposter-2.7 with an explicit -2.7 suffix and I don't know how to remove the suffix (the user probably expects the command to be run with `pdfposter' as under Linux).

Resolution: fixed
Status: assignedclosed

Committed in r79918 with these changes:

  • added $Id$ line and modeline
  • adjusted portfile whitespace and formatting
  • fixed maintainers line
  • removed unnecessary distfiles line
  • removed md5 checksum which we're working on removing from everywhere in MacPorts
  • made variable for download id and put it right after version, which makes it hopefully more obvious to future contributors that it must be updated with the version
  • added line "python.link_binaries_suffix" to avoid -2.7 suffix
  • fixed typos in long description
  • added line "supported_archs noarch" since this port does not appear install any architecture-specific files

Thank you very much.

I wonder if there isn't a typo in the commited Portfile: "noach" instead of "noarch".
