Comment (by mojca@…):
Are there any news about this update? There is version 1.11.2 out already
and there should be no problem to fetch the sources from `tar.bz2` (if
there are, they also have git access available now in addition to svn).
Personally I would vote for providing the `qt` interface only. I don't see
any particular need for `gtk`, it will only cause headaches and one will
have to fix problems related to it without any benefit. It only makes
sense to support `gtk` if Qt isn't working properly yet. I'm not saying
that the port shouldn't provide it, only that it's not necessary to have
it. You can keep support for GTK if you find it useful.
And yes, I also suggest to simply turn all the relevant features on
without a special variant for that unless that feature isn't working,
causes problems or requires too many dependencies.
Can you please submit a new `Portfile` (or diff) for 1.11.2 and taking the
latest comments into account? (Ryan explicitly asked for a diff. This
usually makes a lot of sense, but in this particular case where basically
everything other than description is changed, plain `Portfile` works much
better, at least for me. I'm not advocating using one or another, only
explaining that in cases like this one the diffs are hardly more
informative.)
I agree with the proposal to leave the old `wireshark` port intact (= not
to worry about it) and simply rename this port once the version 1.12.0
gets released.
