Port request: py-unidiff

[cooljeanius (Eric Gallager)]

GCC's contrib/mklog.py script uses the unidiff python module: ​https://pypi.org/project/unidiff/

Having a port for it would be helpful. I tried starting a Portfile for it with pypi2port, but couldn't figure it out.

I have never used pypi2port, but you could look into upt and upt-macports, or just even take a Python port from the tree and adjust the required fields.

What problems did you run into? It seems like a pretty straightforward package with no dependencies besides setuptools, or?

I see, well the error message is quite clear as of why this doesn't work currently (and likely will not work anymore in the future). Someone motivated enough could probably update pypi2port, but I would say people should transition to using upt/upt-macports instead.

Please try that or just generate the Portfile by hand starting from an example in the tree. As I said there don't seem to be any dependencies besides py-setuptools so even doing it by hand is pretty straightforward.
