Description
I'm trying to find out how to install a back rev of boost. I gather from
that I have to go to
and find the boost port, then craft an svn command to get the old version, something like:
svn co -r 30810 http://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/trunk/dports/lang/tcl
But where exactly is boost? It's not at the top level? No. Is it under devel? No. I used the search box, and that was not helpful.
I did this:
Z% sudo /opt/local/bin/port info boost boost @1.53.0, Revision 1 (devel) Variants: debug, [+]no_single, [+]no_static, openmpi, python25, python26, [+]python27, python31, python32, python33, regex_match_extra, universal
Description: Boost provides free portable peer-reviewed C++ libraries. The emphasis is on portable libraries which work well with the C++ Standard Library. Homepage: http://www.boost.org
Library Dependencies: zlib, expat, bzip2, libiconv, icu, python27 Platforms: darwin License: Boost-1 Maintainers: adfernandes@…
but there is nothing there to help me find the subfolder in the svn repository that contains boost.
I'm stumped.
