Priorities

I'm looking to clean up and modernize the guide at: ​markemer/macports-guide-adoc-dev

In addition I am working on an Xcode 1.1 portgroup that will build Workspace Projects, Run Cocoapods/SPM/etc, and deal with various signing nonsense

Because of the below, I'm also looking into a binaryonly portgroup for some systems, which is something I've been talking about for years.

If you find any of this interesting, please reach out.

Current Port Problems

• iTerm2, 3.5.4 will not build easily using our current methods, and while systems as far back as 10.15 are supported by the binary, you can only build on the latest a lot of the time.
• Io does not support arm64 upstream
• geda-gaf appears to be in a bit of a bad state upstream, with the website going down now and again

Ports Maintained

• ​iTerm2
• ​Io
• ​geda-gaf
• ​tesseract
• ​asco
• ​ngspice
• ​qucs
• ​gwyddion

Coming Soon
