^Triage: Reporter is committer, assign accordingly. Since the nim source directories are spread willy nilly throughout ${PREFIX}/lib, then I would definitely agree that it's time to put them all under ${PREFIX}/lib/nim. The compiler source should also probably be moved to ${PREFIX}/lib/nim
There are only three config files in %%ETCDIR%%, so I'm not sure that it's worth putting them in their own directory.
I'm glad that there is now interest in this port as I've been maintaining it for personal interest for a while now and was never sure that anyone was actually using the language.

I think it's a requirement. >I'm glad that there is now interest in this port as I've been maintaining it for personal interest for a while now and was never sure that anyone was actually using the language. And thank your for your effort! Nim is a very pleasant language. Personally, I'm trying to contribute upstream and I've started some personal projects with this language. This summer, I will try to add a collection of ports made with nim. (I hope I'll have time.) By the way, nim 1.2.2 is out maybe "fix" the installation in the new release A commit references this bug: Author: lbartoletti Date: Thu Jul 30 19:41:46 UTC 2020 New revision: 543824 URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/ports/543824 Log: lang/nim: Update to 1.2.4 PR: 247488, 247193 Approved by: Neal Nelson (maintainer), tcberner (mentor) Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D25875 Changes: head/lang/nim/Makefile head/lang/nim/distinfo head/lang/nim/files/patch-install.sh head/lang/nim/pkg-plist Committed, thanks! |
Hello, I think we should change the path of lib .nim installation files. Today they are installed in ${PREFIX}/lib or ${PREFIX}/nim and I think we should take example from arch or openbsd and install in ${PREFIX}/lib/nim I haven't done a test yet. Maybe you have some feedback on this? I just realized this problem by wanting to compile nimterop with nimble (FYI I'm also preparing an upstream ticket for other problems) Do you agree with this proposal? If so, I will prepare the patch. Thanks.
