BeautifulSoup version collision?

Reported by: jenstroeger (Jens Troeger) Owned by: lightnin@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.1.3
Keywords: Cc: dbraband@…, petrrr
Port: py-lxml py-beautifulsoup4

Description

I am not sure if this is an actual issue, or my fault of installing packages incorrectly. Although there's nothing wrong with the Port itself.

First, I installed py-beautifulsoup4 in its current version of 4.1.1, without the +lxml variant. Worked just fine and I could run scripts against that drop. Then, some time later, I installed py-lxml 2.3.2 and suddenly my scripts broke without me having touched them.

My suspicion now is that lxml brings its own drop of BeautifulSoup with it, based on this file: /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.2/lib/python3.2/site-packages/beautifulsoup4-4.1.3-py3.2.egg-info/PKG-INFO

The official MacPorts bs4 is still at 4.1.1. There seems to be some inconsistency here? Shouldn't installing lxml at least trigger bs4 to be rebuilt with the +lxml variant, or remove bs4 from the system, or shouldn't both port files be at the same version? Something is off, I would think.

Cheers!
