[NEW PORT] PyXML

[ryanwilcox@…]

Attached are the port and patch files for PyXML, XML tools for Python

[ryanwilcox@…]

The port file

[ryanwilcox@…]

Patch file for setup.py

[jpm@…]

if the given patchfiles are only applicable to darwin/macosx you might want to place them in a variant block instead of global. this will allow the port to work on other platforms without being molested by darwin/macosx specific changes

variant darwin {

patchfiles spider.monkey

}

Porfile with darwin variant

[jpm@…]

the portfile as attached didn't parse correctly -- attaching my copy with more master_sites and fixed darwin variant comment.

obviously this doesn't afford us a whole lot as it still fails to build...

DEBUG: Executing com.apple.patch (pyxml) ---> Applying /opt/local/var/db/dports/distfiles/patch-setup.py.diff DEBUG: Assembled command: 'cd /Users/jpm/sandbox/darwinports/dports/devel/pyxml/work/ PyXML-0.8.2 && patch -p0' patch unexpectedly ends in middle of line patch: Only garbage was found in the patch input.

repaired portfile...

my bad, the patchfile was hosed as saved by safari...

looks like you are trying to use the python bin from /opt/local/bin but this can be installed by the system elsewhere -- you should probably let the sys decide which python bin to use and not hard code it. install fails with:

DEBUG: Executing com.apple.install (pyxml) DEBUG: Assembled command: 'cd /Users/jpm/sandbox/darwinports/dports/devel/pyxml/work/ PyXML-0.8.2 && /opt/local/bin/python setup.py install --prefix=/Users/jpm/sandbox/ darwinports/dports/devel/pyxml/work/destroot/opt/local ' sh: /opt/local/bin/python: No such file or directory Error: Target com.apple.install returned: shell command "cd /Users/jpm/sandbox/darwinports/ dports/devel/pyxml/work/PyXML-0.8.2 && /opt/local/bin/python setup.py install --prefix=/ Users/jpm/sandbox/darwinports/dports/devel/pyxml/work/destroot/opt/local " returned error 127 Command output: sh: /opt/local/bin/python: No such file or directory

Portfile with no specified python

[jpm@…]

i think you just want to list python, rather than specify any path to the binary -- this will allow the system to resolve the dependency which could be satisified from a number of location...

made that change and checking in. thank you for the port -- keep 'em coming :0)
