Port request munt and munt-mt32emu

[DominusExult (Dominik Reichardt)]

could you add munt and its libmt32emu to your ports? Its repository is in ​https://github.com/munt/munt and is CMAKE based. Munt consists of two programs:

• mt32emu-qt a QT5 based GUI
• mt32emu-smf2wav a terminal program

When you build them these will create a static lib to link against. mt32emu is a library for other programs to link against. The library is sometimes found as "munt-mt32emu" in package managers, while the programs are built as "munt".

I can try and get a barebone port for each up. I don't think I can figure out the more advanced port sorcery that takes care of really old macOS versions, though.

Thanks for your consideration!

portfile for libmt32emu

[DominusExult (Dominik Reichardt)]

I've attached a working portfile for the libmt32emu.

I wonder if you can have two configure and build phases, because the library is by default a shared one. For a static build you need to pass -Dlibmt32emu_SHARED=FALSE. I have no idea how to make a port file that builds both a dynamic and shared library.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Building both a static library and a shared library is the default for many autotools-based projects and is the reason why we recommend ports do it in MacPorts, but most cmake-based projects do not offer this option, and there isn't a recommended way to make a port run the configure and build phases twice. (It is possible and some ports do it but it is a hack and maybe we should avoid proliferating that hack into too many portfiles). In this case, normally offering only the shared library is fine.

The correct value for master_sites for this port would be sourceforge:project/munt/munt/${version}.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Oh, and you have some tab characters in your Portfile. Please use only spaces for indentation. The first line of your file, the modeline, specifies that this will be the case.

[DominusExult (Dominik Reichardt)]

Thank you Ryan. I've already opened a pull request that failed the first review because of the tabs/spaces issue, as well as having written "openmaintainer" which schould have been "nomaintainer". Sorry for the quadruple noise on mailinglist, irc, tracker and github pull request. I was too eager and too focused on doing this at the wrong time of the day.

Pull request at ​https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/9842

On the mailing list I was asked to use the github portgroup, but this turned out to be more problematic, as the way the releases are stored there doesn't fit any of the given github.tarball_from options (location of the files didn't match and the naming scheme on the github page is munt_2_4_0.tar.gz and not munt-2.4.0.tar.gz).

And also thanks for the insight on the cmake issue with shared and static files.
