Comment:
"worksforme?" That's a crap answer for a problem that's biting a lot of
users.
Look at how many duplicates of this bug are in the database. It's a
'''real''' problem that's causing '''real''' headaches for people, and the
fact that it can be hacked around by those in the know does nothing to
mitigate its severity. Doing a "port upgrade outdated" should just work
for users, even if they've just installed XCode 4.4, even if they had an
earlier version of XCode installed before that.
Sure, removing the /Developer directory lets the whole process complete --
assuming users don't have any real reason to keep XCode 4.2 around. But
it's an ugly workaround, and it's really hard to find. Do we honestly
expect everyone to end up finding and reading through this particular bug
report? No. And for those users, ports will just be broken.
This is a make system issue that should be trivial to fix for anyone
familiar with how the whole ports build setup works. Unfortunately, I'm
not in that camp or I'd send in a patch.
