> Cc'ing port's maintainer.
Aha, thanks!
> We'd usually want to see a unified diff of the Portfile instead of a
complete new Portfile to make it easier to evaluate your changes.
Fair enough; I'll send that for future updates.
> Usually we want to update to stable versions of software. Is there a new
stable version of auctex scheduled to be released in the foreseeable
future?
There's hasn't been a stable release in the past two years; nor does there
ever seem to be one. But, to be honest, I can't find the original reason
for using the bleeding edge version.
> I'm worried about the "make; make; make" in the build phase. That makes
it sound like there's a parallel build failure, in which case we'd want to
"use_parallel_build no" instead, but I did not test whether that would
work in this case.
Yes, I am not happy about that either (and embarrassingly, an old artifact
left in the Portfile). After some digging, it's not because of using a
parallel make but rather because of using a CVS checkout.
> Running ./autogen.sh implies that you should be adding build
dependencies on autoconf, automake, and/or libtool (as MacPorts would do
if you were using "use_autoconf yes").
Ack, yes, good catch. I'm going to rollback to 11.86 and apply the biber
patches (which are a new feature); then rebuild and resubmit the patch.
