BUG: wxWidgets-2.6.3 hardcodes --with-mac

[afb@…]

The configure has --enable-mac, which is pretty lame. (could just as well be "gtk", for any Darwin builds?)

(thanks for fixing my typo)

I would love to see the wxWidgets support in DarwinPorts redone, so that one can install all of wxMac/wxGTK/wxMSW at the same time! The wxWidgets developers also prefers that one doesn't use the monolithic library build, but instead several small libraries...

I was thinking that the wxWidgets port could stay monolithic, and the wxMac/wxGTK/wxMSW/wxX11 ports could be "multi-lib" ? (the libraries have different names, so the binaries would still know which build method of wxWidgets they have linked against)

I guess the wxWidgets port is not going to change much, soon ? Might as well start using my own wxMac instead then, meanwhile.

Reassigning to wxWidgets maintainer.

The same bug is in the new wxWidgets-2.8.0 Portfile too :-(

Feel free to close this request, I'll just assume that "wxWidgets" == wxMac and use:

variant macosx {

depends_lib port:wxWidgets

} variant puredarwin {

depends_lib port:wxGTK

}

Less surprises that way anyway, as wxWidgets port always holds the same libraries...

Closing. Thanks.
