Hi Dave,
Thanks for getting back to me. Please find attached a draft Portfile
for libpqxx-2.6.9 (the stable version). It's easy to read the
Portfile to see what is going on. I think it should work fine, but I
would appreciate any advice about any configure options that should be
enabled.
I've got a problem within macports (not specific to pg or libpqxx).
MacPorts will not locate the pg_config.sh file during the macport
build. I can't just modify the $PATH env because the macport build
ignores it. There is an internal variable called $binpath in
macports, but it's read-only. I can't figure out how to get the
macport configure process to find the right pg_config. Any help
appreciated.
Thanks, Darren
PS, If you want to try out this Portfile, take a look at the macports
guide (esp. sections 4,5):
http://guide.macports.org/chunked/
Then follow the instructions to create your local repository here:
http://guide.macports.org/chunked/development.local-repositories.html
Then put this Portfile into databases/libpqxx within your repository.
