initial v1 1 oh wow ... the [ https://github.com/macports/macports-base/commit/7921b2e05e9a4c9cda6efedee496affb305dcc07 commit being reverted (7921b2e05)] is from December 29, 2017 at 10:54:09 AM EST ... can't say I'm happy about that reversion given that it will break ports like cmake. The [https://github.com/macports/macports-base/commit/ffdb7d9ee9e59e9d69a2f29ac08dfd5090f84759commit message for the reversion] says `This change silently broke an unknown number of ports due to different behaviour of symlinks vs directories. See e.g. slime, scm_breeze. The reversion may also break things, but at least they'll give an error rather than silently installing nothing but a broken link.` So ... the original commit broke stuff, and reverting it also breaks stuff ... which is worse? hmmm ...1 oh wow ... the [changeset:7921b2e05e9a4c9cda6efedee496affb305dcc07/macports-base commit being reverted (7921b2e05)] is from December 29, 2017 at 10:54:09 AM EST ... can't say I'm happy about that reversion given that it will break ports like cmake.
