GACUTIL macros have the following problems:
- no staging support
- /package specified more than once
- lack of MONO_SHARED_DIR

How about:
- using ?= to allow overriding macros
- dropping/replacing less used one
- converting ports that install manually to use macros
Comment 1 Marcin Cieślak 2023-08-04 13:50:08 UTC 
Looks good, probably we should do similar thing with the sn (signing) tool.

Do you know what /package 1.0 /package 2.0 parameters were supposed to do?

remove GACUTIL*

$ man gacutil
[...]
       The -package option can be used to also create a directory in in
       prefix/lib/mono with the name NAME, and a symlink is created from
       NAME/assembly_name to the assembly on the GAC.  This is used so
       developers can reference a set of libraries at once.

This bug predates USES=mono:nuget and devel/msbuild. Nothing in ports/ uses GACUTIL macros anymore.
