Hey - I did not authorize this PR to be closed! I opened it for discussion! I am the one who needs to discuss it! The matter is not resolved! It hasn't been answered in so long a time and then _whoosh_ it is closed without enough time for _me_ to look at it!! Now open this PR back up please!!!! Now for the discussion to be inserted into this same PR: We need to be able to use the current code otherwise we will not have any way to test it. Let's think about having a port named (lib)mikmod-current like several other apps (mozilla, mozilla-devel). We then need some way to have the depending apps to know which one to use for linking etc. That means we need LIB_DEPENDS in the other apps to be a variable mikmod.# where # is {0|1|2|3} at the present. Sort-of like a WANT_LIBMIKMOD=version variable. There are many apps that are hard-coded in this manner, to the point that we cannot keep in sync with the ports tree if we do not have a way to WANT_* a certain version like this. Do you see now why I must have this PR re-opened? I am needing to propose a way to do this WANT_* stuff for libmikmod without patching everything that depends on it. Thank you for reopening this PR and allowing these ideas to be discussed. ----- Original Message ----- From: Volker Stolz <vs@FreeBSD.org> Date: Thu, 22 Jul 2004 12:23:33 GMT To: pdseniura@techie.com, vs@FreeBSD.org,freebsd-ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org Subject: Re: ports/68872: audio/libmikmod update to 3.2.0-beta2 ; audio/mikmod update to 3.2.2-beta1 Synopsis: audio/libmikmod update to 3.2.0-beta2 ; audio/mikmod update to 3.2.2-beta1 State-Changed-From-To: feedback->closed State-Changed-By: vs State-Changed-When: Thu Jul 22 12:23:18 GMT 2004 State-Changed-Why: Closed on maintainer's request. http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=68872 -- ___________________________________________________________ Sign-up for Ads Free at Mail.com http://promo.mail.com/adsfreejump.htm
