procServ

Hello, I have created a Portfile for procServ [1]. I have tested it and it works. I would be grateful if you add it to the official repository.
Thank you!

Thanks.

I have a number of questions and comments:

• You've listed this port in the "physics" category, but we have no such category. Would the "science" category be acceptable?
• I see you added the line supported_archs i386 x86_64. Is this because you know for a fact that this will not work on PowerPC Macs?
• The line distfiles ${name}-${version}.tar.gz should be removed because that is the default.
• The lines extract.mkdir yes and extract.post_args "| tar --strip-components=1 -zxf - " appear to be unnecessary and should be removed.

Yes.

I have only tried on x86_64. Don't know about the ppc.

• The line distfiles ${name}-${version}.tar.gz should be removed because that is the default.
• The lines extract.mkdir yes and extract.post_args "| tar --strip-components=1 -zxf - " appear to be unnecessary and should be removed.

Agreed.

Ok, I committed it in r126233. I removed the supported_archs line; we only limit a port to specific architectures if we have evidence that it will not work on other architectures. I also fixed the livecheck. I forgot to change the category but fixed it in r126234.
