#29523: Strange definition of "future"
------------------------------------+---------------------------------------

Component: ports | Version: 1.9.2

Future: "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think
it means."
From
http://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/trunk/base/src/port1.0/portutil.tcl
:
if {[file mtime ${portpath}/Portfile] >= [clock seconds]} {
return -code error "Portfile is from the future - check date and time
of your system"
}
I'm pretty sure "future" means mtime > now, not >=. I'm syncing a
Portfile from an RCS and building it in a script, and apparently my
computer is too fast, cause it's getting this error about the future.
Yes, a `sleep 1` works, but c'mon! :-)
