New mailing lists ready

Juan Manuel Palacios — 2006-09-06T20:31:02

Evening everybody! I'm happy to announce that our new mailing lists are ready for usage, so we plan to complete our transition to them in a week's time. This one will be closed to new posts ASAP (meaning, when I get to it later on today ;-) and an auto-reply will be sent instructing you to join the new ones on MacOSForge if you do happen to post to it by mistake. Therefore all current and new threads will be continued/held there. For more information on our new mailing lists, check my post explaining them: http://opendarwin.org/pipermail/darwinports/2006-September/035470.html Next week I'll consider this list completely closed and ready for removal from the map, so be quick to join us on MacOSForge if you're interested in keeping up with discussion. Regards,... -jmpp

Re: need help making a port for django

Erick Tryzelaar — 2006-09-06T18:53:25

I never ended up checking in my changes for this, and I think this makes sense. I'll make a py-django-devel, which will be version 0.95, not a subversion checkout. This will suggest that this port is unstable, and could potentially break things when updated. When 1.0 comes out, I'll make a py-django. Thanks again. -e Daniel Ericsson wrote:

Subversion's use of the DeltaV protcol should minimize data transmission via its binary differential algorithm. Unless the dmg includes an outdated (or insecure) subversion binary. Might there be something else that could access the server using the WebDAV protocol? I just tested sucking my own subversion repository using wget. Apple doesn't include wget with Mac OS X anymore, but there are wrapper scripts for curl that could do the same thing. Perhaps one could fetch the updates for the subversion port and its dependencies before compiling it? That approach could ensure an updated subversion port without requiring a complete fetch of the ports tree. Another consideration is the fact that any subversion checkout requires double the space--one for a working copy and one for a pristine copy of the original. WebDAV access with DeltaV support might be an alternative to installing the full subversion package. Chris

ANN: Port Authority 1.1

Kevin Walzer — 2006-09-06T14:25:27

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Port Authority 1.1, the GUI for MacPorts, is now available. This version updates the application to reflect the transition to the MacPorts name, interface enhancements, an improved user help system that is now searchable and easily browsed, and bug fixes. With this release, I am moving away from the hybrid freeware/payware approach that I used with version 1.0. The free X11 version will no longer be developed. I have changed the license from GPL to a standard shareware license. A free updater is available for paid users of the 1.0-Aqua version, and a 30-day demo is available for others who wish to try the Aqua version. For more information, and to download, see http://www.kevin-walzer.com/software/portauthority_aqua/. Support questions should be directed to me off-list. Thank you. - -- Kevin Walzer Poetic Code http://www.kevin-walzer.com -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev

Re: MacOS X fonts with Darwinports applications?

Ryan Schmidt — 2006-09-06T10:04:41

I'm not familiar with those packages; it's been awhile since I've used Fink. Applications that use FontConfig should be able to use Mac OS X fonts. See /opt/local/etc/fonts/fonts.conf /opt/local/etc/fonts/local.conf In fact I thought the default versions of those files already set all that up. Which MacPorts application are you using that is not able to see Mac OS X fonts?

Re: port selfupdate, rsync, and tight firewalls

Ryan Schmidt — 2006-09-06T10:08:44

Not a problem if you provide the Subversion port (and its dependencies) in the MacPorts dmg download so that it's already there from the first moment you install MacPorts.

Re: need help making a port for django

Daniel Ericsson — 2006-09-05T21:12:50

I've actually refrained from filing tickets for Django since I sort of foresaw this problem. I'm still of the opinion that having a set of versioned ports maintained, for the benefit of users not having to go to an outside source when a port leave them behind is a worthy goal. But then of course I don't have the perspective for assessing a coherent ports tree... To align Django with the rest of the tree I'd keep -devel. Then let a proper Django port wait for the 1.0 release when there is a firm commitment to not break backwards compatibility from the upstream developers. - Daniel
