Hello!

This document talks about how to use MacPorts to make a macOS installer packages that will install multiple MacPorts ports onto a system.

MacPorts is a project which takes open-source software and builds it for macOS. It takes care of the work of identifying and patching any macOS-specific problems, working out how best to do the build, etc..

Normally, you install MacPorts on your local system, and use the Terminal to install ports (a port is an individual software offering). However, it is also possible to use MacPorts to build macOS installer packages (.pkg files). MacPorts can also bundle multiple ports into a single package (an .mpkg file), so you can install multiple ports in a single action. The ability to make .mpkg files is useful, because ports typically depend on other ports in order to function properly.

This document describes the process for making .mpkg files, so that you can distribute them to systems.

import pyasn1
from pyasn1.type import constraint, namedtype, namedval, univ
from pyasn1.codec.ber.decoder import decode
from uuid import UUID

# These come from Python-LDAP's syncrepl module.
# They're definitions for pyasn1 to understand what it's parsing.

This is a request for a completely new Globus API.  API credentials come from Globus Auth, but a new scope is used.

The idea behind this API is two-fold:

1. Allow the subscription to take place without having to pass credentials around.

2. Give Subscription Managers an easy way to list all the endpoints covered under a subscription, and see their details.

The last point is important: This API would give subscription managers access to endpoint details, even if the endpoint is marked private.
