{opt}_CMAKE_ARGS_ON isn't a valid syntax. Use {opt}_CMAKE_ON instead. This makes the soci port obey the FIREBIRD option (otherwise it always looks for Firebird). Submitted by yuri@ in PR 209530, maintainer timeout (17 months).

Summary

Apply patch from PR 209530. Make config, set FIREBIRD to OFF, make
configure -> Firebird is not searched for.

good, thanks!

You need to bump PORTREVISION. The default is FIREBIRD on, so the default package will change.

*may

... let me double check the defaults in CMakeLists.txt before further taking my foot in my mouth ^^

[tcberner]

Never mind, go ahead.

May I suggest a follow up to CMAKE_BOOL the whole shebang?

This is almost right. The correct sentence, taken from 5.2.3.1. PORTREVISION is:

PORTREVISION must be increased each time a change is made to the port that changes the generated package in any way. That includes changes that only affect a package built with non-default options.

[tcberner]

Oh, thanks.

adridg@ can you do the bump?
