#42385: libcxx/libcxxabi: OS update can render system unusable
-------------------------------+------------------------
Reporter: cal@… | Owner: jeremyhu@…
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: High | Milestone:
Component: ports | Version: 2.2.1
Resolution: | Keywords:
Port: libcxx libcxxabi |
-------------------------------+------------------------
Comment (by landonf@…):
Do these libraries need to be installed in /usr/lib at all? It doesn't
seem safe/appropriate/etc to be installing any files in a canonically
operating-system owned location like /usr/lib, with or without
workarounds.
Maybe base should treat (/usr, /etc, /var, ...) violations as hard errors
that can't be overridden with destroot.violate_mtree ? MacPorts could move
(rather than delete) modified files like some other systems do, but that
wouldn't fix the this particular issue.
