#47687: python portgroup should not auto-create
${destroot}${prefix}/share/doc/${subport}/examples
--------------------------+--------------------------
Reporter: ryandesign@… | Owner: ryandesign@…
Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: Normal | Milestone:
Component: ports | Version: 2.3.99
Keywords: | Port: python
--------------------------+--------------------------
Following discussion in October 2013 about the correct location for
examples to be installed, we decided it is
${destroot}${prefix}/share/doc/${subport}/examples, but that
[https://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/macports-
dev/2013-October/024723.html the python portgroup should not automatically
create it], because it is just as likely that a portfile author wants to
copy an existing directory there, in which case the portfile author has to
first delete the automatically created directory. See also #23280.
All ports using the python portgroup and using
${prefix}/share/doc/${subport} need to be audited and possibly updated for
compatibility with this change.
