I live in Berlin, Germany. I like to program, and I like working software. Currently interested in Erlang, Ruby, C, Common Lisp, Unix IO APIs, and B-Trees. === Personal MacPorts wishlist === 1. There should be an automatic build server (ideally with results in a web interface, filterable, searchable and with automatic notification) 1. Dependencies don't use variants; fix 1. Outlaw any overwriting of other port's files, because it makes install fail (without -f, which is not an option ;) 1. There should be post-activate and pre-deactivate hooks to run port-specific scripts (e.g. to install launchd plists) 1. new option to automatically upgrade dependencies before building a port 1. port list, info are slow; make fast (using b-trees) [r47110, using temp hash cache] 1. There should be user messages from within Portfiles which are a bit more persistent, like emails; maybe a highlevel user-message log file is enough 1. There should be a tool which finds stale references from executables and libraries to dynamically linked libraries (think gentoo revdep-rebuild) 1. make guide use a reasonable (wiki-like) markup, not docbook-xml. [rejected on the dev list] 1. Feature: Dependencies can use (minimum) versions 1. 'uninstall --follow-dependents' loses its value by the fact that port constantly asks which specific version to uninstall if there is more than one installed (which is usually the case for every one, since it is the default) My ports are: {{{ libsvm mochiweb rb-mysql rb-rmagick ruby19 tsung tuntaposx }}} Open issues of these ports: [[TicketQuery(status=new|assigned|reopened&summary~=libsvm|mochiweb|rb-mysql|rb-rmagick|ruby19|tsung|tuntaposx)]] and [[TicketQuery(status=new|assigned|reopened&port~=libsvm|mochiweb|rb-mysql|rb-rmagick|ruby19|tsung|tuntaposx)]] === [query:reporter=febeling@macports.org Reported Tickets] === [[TicketQuery(reporter=febeling@macports.org&status=new|assigned|reopened)]] === [query:owner=febeling@macports Assigned Tickets] === [[TicketQuery(owner=febeling@macports.org&status=new|assigned|reopened)]] === [query:cc=febeling@macports On CC] === [[TicketQuery(cc~=febeling@macports.org&status=new|assigned|reopened)]]
