| 7 | | Another option to install the python bindings would be to provide a separate Portfile, as jul_bsd has proposed. This clearly would ease the task of creating the Portfile, because the python PortGroup and all its magic would be available. On the other hand, this would require maintenance of two Portfiles, that both source the same distfile. As I am still learning how to handle Portfiles and don't have commit privileges, maintaing a single file seems the easier and more stable approach to me. Thus no desync'ed versions of library and bindings can exist in the port repository. |
