It is actually not very hard to write your own client to MacPorts, do mportopen to get a handle to a Portfile and then run arbitrary code in a Portfile context. Read through the source code of port, portindex, port_cutleaves and other similar utilities to see how it's done. > > Maybe if you included a concise description of exactly what you're > > trying to do, someone would have an alternate idea that would work? > > From my KF5 PortGroup: [...] I would review that, but it's waaaay to complicated to understand what you're trying to do and what your problem is. Please come up with a minimal example with all the KDE-specific stuff removed if you want feedback. -- Clemens _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev
