New port: Patoline

[pierreetienne.meunier@…]

This is a new typesetting system, written in OCaml.

[cooljeanius (Eric Gallager)]

port -v lint --nitpick reports the following warning:

Warning: Maintainer email address should be obfuscated as gmail.com:pierreetienne.meunier

Also some other things to consider:

• Most ports have modelines for their first line nowadays, like this:

  # -*- coding: utf-8; mode: tcl; tab-width: 4; indent-tabs-mode: nil; c-basic-offset: 4 -*- vim:fenc=utf-8:ft=tcl:et:sw=4:ts=4:sts=4
  

• The "GPL" license requires a version number. In this case, it looks like it's version 2 (or later? If it is "or later", use a "+" with the version of the GPL, so it would be "GPL-2+".)
• If you're going to just keep the description and long_description the same, you can just replace the text for your long_description with the variable ${description}
• Since this is an ocaml port, consider using the ocaml portgroup: browser:trunk/dports/_resources/port1.0/group/ocaml-1.0.tcl​ This removes the need to manually specify a dependency on ocaml, among other things.
• Ports should generally have at least two checksums; since you're already using sha256, the next-strongest one after that (that MacPorts uses, at least) is rmd160.

Anyway, I re-did the portfile with those changes, which I'll attach next. Unfortunately, building it fails for me, with the error:

I'll attach my main.log, too.

Thanks for your comments! I do not get this error. However, I have attempted to correct it. Here is a new portfile.

Thanks for the port! I committed it with a few minor changes in r107724.
