depends code problem???: msg#00612

Subject: depends code problem???
Hi All,

I'm seeing some strange depends problems now. If I have the following:

depends_build           bin:${prefix}/bin/ruby:ruby

It always tries to build Ruby regardless of the fact that it is installed. However, if I change the dependency to:

depends_build           bin:ruby:ruby

It doesn't build Ruby (since it's installed) like it should. Has the depends code for "bin" types changed recently? I have the most up-to-date base code installed right now. This used to work, and we NEED this ${prefix}/bin/ruby style bin path check to work. It's used in many ports to ensure the DP version of a language is installed so it doesn't use the OS installed version.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
-Robert
