#34539 new enhancement

ophcrack: add fast and small sub-ports

Reported by: ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt) Owned by: macports-tickets@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version:
Keywords: Cc: cooljeanius (Eric Gallager), kurthindenburg (Kurt Hindenburg)
Port: ophcrack

Description

ophcrack current decides whether to use fast or small tables based on whether the computer building the port has more than 512MB RAM or not. This may result in a nonoptimal selection when a port is built on one computer and then installed on another. This is very common now that we have a buildbot automatically building and distributing ports.

Instead the port should have "fast" and "small" variants. The port can then select one of these variants based on the amount of installed RAM. Thus the buildbot will then build one of the variants, and if the user has a computer with a different amount of RAM, they'll get the other variant.

Anyone have an opinion on my latest patch? or should I just commit it?

Had not seen your patch. Note that just attaching a patch does not generate an email notification, but adding a comment does.

Sorry, I meant to add a comment to this ticket earlier. Variants should be removed in favor of subports or separate ports.
