I wasn't around during the leadup to Leopard, so I'd like a few
pointers. How should I be handling SL regressions in MacPorts during
these coming months? Should we have a special tag/keyword to place on
radars? trac doesn't support blocking/dependencies in bugs, so maybe
a wiki page to track the big problems... ?
As it is right now, there are a few crucial ports that don't "just
work" which block many others. python2[56] don't work +universal nor -
universal (at least on my system). apr, gcc42, emacs, libsdl, libusb,
libart_lgpl also fail. I haven't really started diving into these
build failures yet, so I don't know more than "it failed".
Additionally, should we update the default universal archs on SL? As
it is right now, on 64bit machines, -universal will be x86_64 and
+universal is i386 ppc. That will lead to a world of trouble. I
changed mine to x86_64 i386 ppc which seems to be the sane default for
SL.
