#25309: peekabot: update to version 0.7.2 + bugfixes
--------------------------------+-------------------------------------------
Reporter: staffan@… | Owner: macports-tickets@…
Type: update | Status: new
Priority: Normal | Milestone:
Component: ports | Version: 1.9.0
Keywords: | Port: peekabot
--------------------------------+-------------------------------------------
In addition to updating to the latest released version of the package, the
attached patch (diff'd relative trunk/dports/science/) does a few other
things:
* Make it build on x86_64 by forcing a 32-bit build of the parts (the
server/GUI) that rely on broken dependencies; FLTK doesn't compile for
x86_64, and as far as I can tell it likely never will (see #21054).
* Switch to using xercesc3 over xercesc, since the universal variant of
xercesc doesn't build (#23255).
* Add a workaround for a mysterious memory error.
* Split the peekabot port into two ports - one for the server (GUI) and
one for the client library. This allows us to still build in client
library for the native architecture, thus not forcing programs using
peekabot to be compiled in 32-bit mode. It doesn't seem like it's possible
to make a port containing a mix of 32-bit and 64-bit stuff, thus the
split.
Ideally, I would want the old "peekabot" port to be a metapackage that
installs both the peekabot-client and peekabot-server ports, but there
doesn't seem to be any way to do that, or at least I cannot figure it out.
Instead, I opted to simply remove the old port since its broken -- it
don't know if that will cause any problems for people who already have it
installed??
I am the port and upstream maintainer.
