Changes since 2.8.1:

  • Upgrade will now update registry metadata if needed for ports
    that are not outdated. This should hopefully cut down on revision
    increases requiring a rebuild just to do things like add or
    remove dependencies. (jmr in bec110b)

  • Added new option startupitem.logfile.stderr.
    (#67955, mascguy in e70a512)

  • Many single-letter command line options should now work when
    given after the action name, and apply only to that action. A few
    like -N can't easily be turned on and off internally, so if in
    doubt, keep putting single-letter options before the action.
    (jmr in aec0601)

  • Ports that set platforms containing any are now not considered
    outdated after major OS updates. (#68256, jmr in 1b4db00)

  • Dependencies installed for the first time when upgrading a port
    no longer inherit all variants from the dependent port. Arch
    checking is now done in this case so +universal is added to the
    dependency iff needed. (#67637, jmr in 7be167c)

  • Prevented rev-upgrade from complaining about weakly-linked libs
    that are not present. (#52700, chrstphrchvz in 77e333a)

  • Avoid installing build-time dependencies when force-upgrading an
    installed port for which a binary archive will be used.
    (#67017, jmr in a9597dc)

  • Fixed error when running upgrade with -R and -u options.
    (#68019, jmr in 980a5c1)

  • Fixed rev-upgrade potentially trying to access registry entries
    that have been uninstalled as a result of a rebuild.
    (#66186, jmr in 1abd73a)

  • Fixed missing make command potentially causing some ports to fail
    to parse. (#60881, jmr in 1b4e6a1)

  • Prevented destroot.keepdirs from creating files outside the
    destroot. (#55673, jmr in 8db11c8)

  • Running port install on a port that is already installed will
    set the requested flag for that port. (#55085, jmr in 7ed853d)

  • Fixed trace mode on Intel macOS 13. (#66358, cal in 4a1b0c7)

  • Fixed incorrect trace mode handling of setuid/setgid binaries.
    (cal in 9cc9afc)

  • Fixed the deactivate and uninstall actions sometimes not handling
    multiple ports in correct dependency order if one or more of them
    was specified with non-canonical case. (#60446, jmr in 772a9cc)

  • Fixed port names that differ only in case not being considered
    to be the same when evaulating boolean expressions.
    (#50518, jmr in bd02a2f)

  • Fixed some issues that could occur in the unusual case that a
    mirror has an archive but not its corresponding signature.
    (jmr in a774938, f7828b8)

  • If the macports user has an incorrect home directory set somehow,
    the installer should now fix it. (#49101, jmr in 128e8ce)

  • Skip vacuuming the registry database on shutdown (after
    uninstalling one or more ports) if it would not save significant
    space. (jmr in c82a269)

  • Clean up the SQLite write-ahead log file when closing the
    registry. (jmr in 9bb06b9)

  • Added a simple default test phase for all ports, which currently
    just checks the architectures of installed files. test.run yes
    enables the tests defined by the Portfile, as before. It should
    always be safe to run port test now, and if it fails it means
    a test didn't pass. (jmr in ddc2655)

  • Using multiple threads for portindex. (jmr in f00bf80)
