Optional. Commonly used to indicate # that an update has happened that affects the port # framework itself, but not the distributed software # (e.g., local patches or Makefile changes). # PORTEPOCH - Optional. In certain odd cases, the PORTREVISION logic # can be fooled by ports that appear to go backwards # numerically (e.g. if port-0.3 is newer than port-1998). # In this case, incrementing PORTEPOCH forces the revision. # Default: 0 (no effect). PORTREVISION is the same as PKGREVISION We use PORTEPOCH as noted in the above comment, or when a port has gone backwards in revision for some reason. This allows us to do things like: 3.0 < 3.0-1 < 2.9-7,1 < 3.1,1 < 3.0,2 Once PORTEPOCH is added to a port, it can't be removed. As it would cause the package version to go backwards. -- DISCLAIMER: No electrons were maimed while sending this message. Only slightly bruised.
