salt @2014.1.13 no destroot found - failed copying minion conifg file

[urs.rau@…]

When I run on my Yosemite 10.10.1 using cmd line tools 6.1.1 GM the sequence

port uninstall salt 
port clean salt 
port install salt

I get an error about it not being able to copy the minion conf file (see attached log) But if I do a

port uninstall salt 
port clean salt 
port install -v -d -k salt

I get an error saying that it can't find the destroot

In both cases I get no files installed inot /opt except for the minion.plist file.

Error is:

I'm having the same problem. If you look at the ports files, when the names changed to salt-2014.1.13 from salt-0.17.1 on 11/20, the file lost the salt contents and just contains the plist files. The size went to 2.8K from 1.5M.

OK, I'll look into this.

Anything we can do to help track this down?

[jmroot (Joshua Root)]

The portfile currently does this:

destroot {

    if ![file exists ${destroot}/Library/LaunchDaemons] {
        file mkdir ${destroot}/Library/LaunchDaemons
    }
    copy ${worksrcpath}/pkg/darwin/com.saltstack.salt.master.plist ${destroot}/Library/LaunchDaemons
    copy ${worksrcpath}/pkg/darwin/com.saltstack.salt.syndic.plist ${destroot}/Library/LaunchDaemons

}

You probably want a post-destroot block there, not a destroot phase that does nothing but install those two plists.

[hahn.seb@…]

The install goes through here with that change but there still aren't any binaries installed

[hahn.seb@…]

Using port install -s -v salt, the port installed and I had the binaries put in place correctly, too after changing the destroot to a post-destroot in the portfile.

But something still seems busted. The version is supposed to be 2014.1.13, but salt --version reports 2014.1.0 (Hydrogen) as the version.

[hahn.seb@…]

Attached a patch which fixes this in my testing.

[hahn.seb@…]

This should probably have a haspatch keyword

Sorry for the delay, please don't hesitate to bug me repeatedly about this change.

[neverpanic (Clemens Lang)]

Committed in r133159, thanks for the patch. Maintainer timeout.

I'm assuming comment:18 means this is fixed.
