#74386: emacs-app @ 31.1: Link binaries and manpages to prefix
-------------------------+---------------------------------------
Reporter: mcookly | Owner: (none)
Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: Low | Milestone:
Component: ports | Version: 2.12.6
Keywords: | Port: emacs-app emacs-app-devel
-------------------------+---------------------------------------
When installing {{{emacs-app}}} (or {{{emacs-app-devel}}}) via MacPorts,
only {{{Emacs.app}}} is installed, requiring the user to invoke
{{{/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/bin/emacsclient}}} to run
emacsclient. I know that emacs-app installed via Homebrew links Emacs's
binaries to {{{opt/local/homebrew/bin}}} as well as some manpages
([https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/blob/main/Casks/e/emacs-
app.rb]). Is there interest in having MacPorts's {{{emacs-app}}} do the
same, perhaps under an opt-in variant?
