# This package mostly can replace swig (1), but it is likely not
# entirely compatible (per upstream). So the plan is to keep
# devel/swig and devel/swig2 both for a while. This package is
# configured to install swig as "swig2", so that swig and swig2 can be
# installed in parallel. The downside of that is that depending
# packages must check for and use swig2. Thus, the decision about
# naming is open to being revisited.
## Notes about pkgsrc-wide transition to swig2:
# 2012-10: gnuradio is said to work with swig2 (private communication
# by gdt@ with a GNU Radio developer). However, it doesn't find 'swig2'.
# TODO: check x11/ruby-wxruby for working with swig2, but this is not
# a bar to importing it.
# Keep the path from changing due to minor version bumps.
