The quoting on startupitem.executable was my main issue. I’ll incorporate these
other tips as well.
Thanks!

That's the default so you should omit this line.

I have made some good progress on this port. However, the startup item
functionality in the profile is giving me some difficulty.
What I have in the ports is…
startupitem.create yes
startupitem.name${name}
startupitem.executable "${prefix}/sbin/netatalk -d -F ${prefix}/etc/afp.conf"

Yet one more example of why we should be encouraging as many MacPorts
users as possible to be installing the 'mpstats' port, so that we can
obtain better statistics.
It will still be a self-selected sample, with
Netatalk can be a shim to pick this or that version, and then having several
versions in parallel does not create a confusion.

Subports are merely a convenience for the programmer; there is no difference
for the end user. If it is easier for the pro

Off the top of my head, I can't think of any reason why that would be a

Take a look at the Portfile for MoltenVK:
https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/blob/master/graphics/MoltenVK/Portfile
The base MoltenVK port, which is just a stub, will select the correct
versioned subport based on the user's macOS version. Unfortunately, there
is no way to know how to divi
I like that idea. Is there a good example port that already does this? My plan is to get a functional PR started and hope for some collaborative advice. I’m not very interested in spending a lot of effort testing every possible version of macOS. Can these supports have their own supported macOS ve
Yeah, this is a better idea, perhaps.

Whoever updates the Portfile, can you make sure to preserve the old
version(s) of netatalk using a versioned subport, i.e. 'netatalk3',
'netatalk2' (or whatever), so that old versions of macOS can still use the
older netatalk packages? I think that the 'netatalk' port should be

I had a port for netatalk 3 somewhere; as I recall, it needed some fixes
for the build. That was a while ago, I do not know what is the current
status.
Very much likely that netatalk 4 will be broken on older systems and
possibly less useful than earlier versions.
So yeah, I think it should be a se
The Netatalk package has seen some serious updates recently with a new team
working on it. I have made a couple efforts and getting a working port for the
4.x versions but meson build system is tripping me up. Also looking at
compatbility it seems like we would want a netatalk4 package vs just u
