Description
p7zip installs into a versioned documentation directory. This was done briefly in some MacPorts ports many years ago, but is no longer recommended. The documentation directory name should just be ${prefix}/share/doc/${subport}/.

Replying to stuartwesterman@…:
Okay, if I'm to understand this correctly:
I'll be changing this line in the Portfile:
DEST_SHARE_DOC=${prefix}/share/doc/${name}-${version} \To:
DEST_SHARE_DOC=${prefix}/share/doc/${subport} \
That sounds right. Since that changes the files installed by the port, the revision or version would have to be increased in the same commit as well.
I might also consider updating the port to the 15.05 beta version. Any problems with this?
According to http://sourceforge.net/projects/p7zip/files/p7zip/, 9.38.1 is the latest version available, which is what we have in MacPorts. Usually, we want to use stable versions, not beta or development versions, unless there's some serious reason why the latest stable version is unsuitable.
