any way to make --enforce-variants the default?


It seems like this new "--enforce-variants" switch is just
a pain.  In a cargo-cult way, I now have to include it on
every "upgrade", because it invariably breaks when I don't.
So then I wonder, why isn't it the default?

And I've run into a tougher place.  I tried to install something
new.  But that triggered the upgrade of something else, which then
failed because, yup, again, --enforce-variants isn't set.
But why (and how!) would I have set --enforce-variants
on "sudo port install gimp".  This is *not* making sense.

So, what's the purpose of this new switch, and when would you ever *not* use
it?

Not at this time, unfortunately. There is a ticket for that feature

My understanding is that --enforce-variants will cause ports to  
rebuild which MacPorts doesn't think need to be rebuild, but where the  
set of variants used when you originally installed it does not match  
the set of variants MacPorts would use if you installed it today. This  
can be either because someone added default variants (or applicable  
platform variants) to the port since you installed it, or because the  
port has a "darwin" variant. (MacPorts versions before 1.8.0 failed to  
record the "darwin" variant in the registry.)

I am curious to know what "breaks" and is "failing" for you. What  
error messages are you getting? I thought upgrading ports with --

It's for adding variants to ports that are already installed. That's the
only time you should ever have to use it. Example:

sudo port upgrade --enforce-variants foo +universal

which will rebuild foo and all its dependencies with +universal.

Warnings about not matching +darwin are usually purely cosmetic and are
caused by a bug in older MacPorts versions where that variant was not
being recorded in the registry. Warnings about other variants are
usually worth paying attention to. They tell you when you do something
like `port install gtk2 +quartz` when you already have cairo installed
without +quartz, which is not going to work.

Nothing should ever fail to upgrade due to not using --enforce-variants
