Its canonical name is clang [1], not pyclang. > Recently I ran into some trouble where port devel/py-pyclang is requested from a site (ESP32, Espressif). In some cases the port is referenced as "clang" where the prepending PY_FLAVOR is ommited, which is confusing, since "clang" is also installed on recent FreeBSDs. That means the dependent port should be fixed to use the correct dependency line, "${PYTHON_PKGNAMEPREFIX}clang>=0:devel/py-clang@${PY_FLAVOR}". > Port devel/py-yaml has been recently renamed to devel/py-pyyaml, so I take the liberty to aks kindly whether a renaming is possible without a major impact on ports alreday referencing py-clang. Regarding the recent move from devel/py-yaml to devel/py-pyyaml, it is actually a *FIX*. pyyaml is the canonical/correct name [2] used by other Python libraries. BTW, the WWW of this port should be changed to https://github.com/trolldbois/python-clang which is the real URL of the source code of this python library. At least the forementioned URL should be added as primary WWW. [1] https://pypi.org/project/clang/ [2] https://pypi.org/project/PyYAML/ -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
