Description (last modified by reneeotten (Renee Otten))
If you are CC'd on this issue, then you are the maintainer of a port that has dependencies that no longer exist. Note that test dependencies were also included. Please search the list below to find your ports.
This list was generated based on the port list retrieved on 2024-10-28, 11:59 UTC. The format is port [ maintainers ] : badDependency1 badDependency2 ...
There are currently 78 missing dependencies.
(neverpanic and jmroot are also CC'd)

comment:6 Changed 3 weeks ago by szhorvat (Szabolcs Horvát)
Here's a bit more analysis about the number of transitive reverse dependencies of each of these broken ports (which are also broken), including themselves. This is still done with the original dependency graph, not taking into account the fixes made since then by reneeotten. It should help determine which ports should be fixed instead of removed.
(Note: these exclude test dependencies; including those would give over 5000 ports with broken deps.)

comment:7 Changed 3 weeks ago by Schamschula (Marius Schamschula)
As py38-h5netcdf
has no dependents, it can be removed.
I also have a more recent version of abinit
in my local tree that doesn't depend on py27-pandas
.
comment:8 Changed 3 weeks ago by smithsp (Sterling Smith)
I see that I am mentioned for py38-pyro
, but I am no longer using MacPorts. The port is also listed as openmaintainer, but I am expediting my unresponsiveness with this message.
comment:9 Changed 3 weeks ago by reneeotten (Renee Otten)
the py37-pyproject_hooks
that you claim broke 214 ports isn't actually true. The test dependency that is missing there is py37-testpath
, which admittedly I removed... Same applies for py312-pyproject_hooks
, so the situation isn't as bad as you imply here ;)
comment:10 Changed 3 weeks ago by reneeotten (Renee Otten)
the analysis is possibly flawed in general. Another example, is py39-gwpy
: you claim the removal of that broke two other ports. Please show me which ones, as according to the port status page there are no dependents.
comment:11 follow-up: 14 Changed 3 weeks ago by szhorvat (Szabolcs Horvát)
To be clear, I am not doing this to find issues in MacPorts. That's just a side effect of checking the dependency graph dataset (which I'm interested in) for consistency. It is possible that there are mistakes, though I haven't found any so far.
py37-build
depends on py37-pyproject_hooks
, then py37-build
has 217 ports depending on it, excluding test dependencies, but including all other dependency types, including build dependencies. The majority are probably build dependencies.
This number is confirmed by port echo rdepends:py37-build | wc
.
I posted these numbers in hope that they're helpful, since I have the entire dependency graph here and I can run queries fairly easily. Let me know if you want me to test anything (for example, exclude certain dependency types).
comment:12 Changed 3 weeks ago by szhorvat (Szabolcs Horvát)
Regarding py39-gwpy
: The two ports are py39-gwpy
(the counts include the port itself) and py-gwpy
. Let me know if you need more clarifications.
Generally, I built the dependency graph from the output of port info --depends someport
(run for each port), keeping track of dependency types.
comment:13 Changed 3 weeks ago by szhorvat (Szabolcs Horvát)
Here's another list, now taking only depends_lib
and depends_run
dependency types, and nothing else. I hope this helps. As before, the port itself is included in the counts.

I am not at all questioning your intentions and there are certainly things here that could/should be fixed. It's just that the analysis IMO isn't giving the actual picture. For the example above, the py37-build
is not broken as the py37-project_hooks
is just missing a test dependency. That's not to say that there isn't something that could be fixed, but it certainly did not break 214 ports.

Oops, you are absolutely right. I had an error in my script, and the test dependencies were in fact considered during one step. Here's the corrected list (since I can't edit the top post). This is still with the same data, without the fixes you made since.

Replying to szhorvat:
If you are CC'd on this issue, then you are the maintainer of a port that has dependencies that no longer exist. Note that test dependencies were also included. Please search the list below to find your ports.
"Megatickets" like this are hard to deal with. I'm not going to be able to keep up with the volume of email notifications on such a ticket, and it's difficult to keep track of what's been fixed and what remains to be fixed. This is why I prefer one issue per ticket so that each ticket can be marked fixed when it's fixed.
In many cases, the maintainer of the port is not who needs to fix the problem. For example:
buildbot-0.8 [ryandesign@macports.org ryandesign, openmaintainer] : py27-sqlalchemy
I had nothing to do with someone else removing a dependency of this port which is an essential component of MacPorts infrastructure. The solution would be for whoever removed it to reinstate it.
comment:30 Changed 3 weeks ago by barracuda156
I will sort out R
-related ports: those are my omissions. (All are test dependencies, so nothing is broken as such, but should still be fixed, of course.)
For Ruby19: all those should either be updated to modern Rubies or removed, if no one interested to maintain those. (Just in case, I won’t deal with those. My interest in Ruby is limited to a few specific ports, and none of those are ruby19-based.)
comment:31 Changed 2 weeks ago by szhorvat (Szabolcs Horvát)
"Megatickets" like this are hard to deal with.
Opening a separate ticket for each port is not something I am able to do, especially considering that the goal of this project wasn't really to improve MacPorts--that's just a side-effect.
Do you have any suggestions (other than opening 70+ tickets) on what to do with such information in the future? Post it on the mailing list? Abandon it?
If there's interest in an updated status report after all the fixes that were made in the wake of this ticket, I'm happy to provide it. Let me know. There are currently 60 missing dependencies affecting 64 ports.
