https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D247099 Bug ID: 247099 Summary: editors/micro port needs update Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: swills@FreeBSD.org Reporter: rlwestlund@gmail.com Assignee: swills@FreeBSD.org Flags: maintainer-feedback?(swills@FreeBSD.org) The editors/micro port is still on 1.4.1, while 2.0.4 is released. I tried = to make the necessary Makefile changes myself but gave up; I'm a novice at por= ting and there are some difficulties involved with this change. This Github issue provides some background: https://github.com/zyedidia/micro/issues/1711 The project uses gmake internally, and its Makefile requires being in the G= it repository to determine version information. Currently, the port seems to w= ork by ignoring the project's Makefile and doing the build itself, inserting the -ldflags, but I don't believe this is the right approach. It would require duplicating code between the two Makefiles (and also the port Makefile currently hardcodes the build date as August 9 2018, which is silly - the project's Makefile runs a Go script that determines the actual date). I couldn't make a patch myself because I couldn't figure out how to make it clone the repository instead of just downloading an archive. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
