#23396 closed enhancement (wontfix)

substitute prefix in variants.conf

Reported by: scott@… Owned by: macports-tickets@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: base Version: 1.8.2
Keywords: Cc:
Port:

Description (last modified by jmroot (Joshua Root))

variants.conf reads: 

# To specify global variants to use for all port builds,
# customize this file to list variant settings you want.
#
# Be sure to uncomment/define the variants_conf setting
# in the system wide ${prefix}/etc/macports/macports.conf
# file or in your personal ~/.macports/macports.conf to
# point to this file to enable this feature.
#
# Any variants specified here that are not supported by
# a port will just be ignored. Multiple variants can be
# specified per line, or one per line is also allowed.
#
# Example:
# +ipv6 +no_x11

Should the ${prefix} actually be replaced out with the users real prefix, in my case, it would read:

# in the system wide /opt/local/etc/macports/macports.conf

We ship macports.conf with variants_conf uncommented now, so that paragraph is unnecessary and I removed it in r63004.
