Hi,
Considering the feedback I've received I'm going to take 1 or 2 days this week
to make all or most of the suggested changes to the current ports. I will test
them privately and then submit them to this mailing list for testing and for
approval. After that we can ask the committers to do what they do best ;)
One other suggestion for the ports that have a RUN_DEPENDS on a Java VM: We
could make them all to specify what JDK should be installed if none is
installed by using the JDK_PORT variable in the Makefile as follows:
RUN_DEPENDS= ${JAVAVM}:${PORTSDIR}/${JDK_PORT}
JAVAVM?= ${LOCALBASE}/bin/javavm
JDK_PORT?= java/jdk
Or, in a more advanced manner:
RUN_DEPENDS= ${JAVAVM}:${PORTSDIR}/${JDK11_PORT}
JAVAVM?= ${LOCALBASE}/bin/javavm
JDK11_PORT?= java/jdk
Kind regards,
Ernst
