BUG: goffice03 (needed by gnucash) conflicts with goffice

[vinc17@…]

I get the following error:

--->  Activating goffice03 0.3.8_0
Error: Target org.macports.activate returned: Image error: /opt/local/share/gtk-doc/html/goffice/ch01.html is being used by the active goffice port.  Please deactivate this port first, or use the -f flag to force the activation.

As I've said in the macports-users mailing-list (gnucash 2.2.1 problems (and solutions)):

Since the goffice port is needed by other ports, deactivating it is not an option, and the -f flag is dangerous and will lead to bad files installed (at least for the doc). Since goffice03 is there only for compatibility, there is probably no need to install the doc (or the doc should only be installed via a variant). I haven't tried yet.

If you create a patch not to install the docs, or installing them only via a variant, I'll be happy to commit it. Thanks in advance.

Gnucash 2.2.4 made it into svn in r35110. Please reproduce your error on this version and reopen the ticket if required. Please add detailed information on how to reproduce it.

[reiffert@…]

Sorry, I accidentally closed this port. Reopened as of now. Please ignore the last (my) comment regarding gnucash 2.2.4.

[blb@…]

Can this be closed, gnucash depends on goffice (not goffice03) at this point?

[vinc17@…]

Yes, closing as wontfix since this bug is obsolete.
