#18133: /opt/local/bin/port documentation problems
-------------------------------------+--------------------------------------
Reporter: macosforge.org@… | Owner: macports-tickets@…
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: Normal | Milestone: MacPorts Future
Component: base | Version: 1.7.0
Keywords: help man | Port:
-------------------------------------+--------------------------------------
Comment(by sewebster@…):
1) is a trivial fix... action should be in square braces in the help text
and privopts can probably be removed or be added to the man page.
2) I don't see any reference to "commands" in the help text anymore.
Targets I guess reflect the internal macports code, but action is more
suitable for (at least the beginning of) the man page since it has a more
obvious meaning for the average user. I suppose all mention of targets
could be removed from the man page, probably a search and replace
target->action would even work. Or the current structure could be kept,
where action is used initially to provide clarity and eventually the more
correct target terminology is used, possibly with an explanatory sentence.
3) and 4) are not issues as explained by raimue above.
