Comment(by jeff-macports@…):
Replying to [comment:5 trevor.bain@…]:
> Can't macports require a variant for a dependency? And, if so, wouldn't
the fix be to depend on the +ssl variant in couchdb. I'm gonna assume both
of these statements are true and look into how to propose a patch to a
port owner (off to RTFM).
I don't believe it is possible. In fact, there is an open ticket from a
very long time ago (#126) about that topic that appears to still be
unresolved.
I think the best option here is to file a ticket with the erlang
maintainer to add +ssl as a default variant. Since it was (incorrectly)
building it that way before, it should be the default now since other
ports, like couchdb, were depending on that behavior. Alternately, a
patch could be included in the portfile for couchdb that disables ssl
support and add a variant for that in couchdb that could check for the
existence of some part of erlang that indicates ssl support and error out
if it isn't there.
