Description
Please comment and/or commit.
I also explicitely ask for review of two things:
- the line "depends_build port:pkgconfig". The library searches for libxml2 and liblouis using pkgconfig. I don't know which port then should depend on pkgconfig - whether the ones that are declaring their existence using pkgconfig (like libxml2 and liblouis), or the ones that use pkgconfig to find other libraries (liblouisxml).
- I also encountered problem with filesystem:
Warning: violation by /opt/local/info Warning: violation by /opt/local/man Warning: liblouisxml violates the layout of the ports-filesystems!
I solved this (after consulting Raim in IRC) by adding the line "configure.args --mandir=${prefix}/share/man --infodir=${prefix}/share/info". But I wonder why MacPorts does not pass these arguments itself since it supports autoconf-based systems out-of-the-box and should know these dark corners (so that portwriters don't have to take care of them in every port).
Thanks.
