New port: py25-macholib-devel to go with py25-py2app-devel

[david@…]

In packaging an application I needed to use a more recent version of macholib than is provided by py25-macholib. Here is py25-macholib-devel, which pulls from a Subversion server, just like py25-py2app-devel does.

Portfile for py25-macholib-devel

Thanks, added in r38453. I listed you in maintainers since openmaintainer doesn't make sense by itself; if you have any objection to that just let me know.

Thanks, that's one more thing I can take out of my custom patch. I'd prefer not to be a maintainer because I don't plan to do any maintenance of the port, and I plan to switch back to py25-macholib if macholib gets a new release.

py25-py2app-devel depends on py25-macholib; perhaps it should depend on py25-macholib-devel instead? I needed to do that to package Zenmap. I don't remember exactly what error py25-macholib was giving me; it might have had to do with universal binaries.

OK, I'll set it to nomaintainer.

Everything that depends on py25-macholib should actually be changed to depend on some representative file that is provided by py25-macholib and py25-macholib-devel, so the dep will be satisfied by either of them. I'll see about doing this.

I changed the py25-macholib dependency in py25-py2app-devel to be a file dependency on ${prefix}/lib/python2.5/site-packages/macholib/init.py. (r39520)
