bsd.qt.mk has been replaced by qt.mk. This changes the way ports have to
|
|
depend on Qt slightly.
|
|
|
|
Previously one would have written
|
|
USE_QT4=foo bar
|
|
or
|
|
USE_QT5=foo bar
|
|
while now one has to write
|
|
USES=qt:4
|
|
USE_QT=foo bar
|
|
respectively
|
|
USES=qt:5
|
|
USE_QT=foo bar
|
|
|
|
Further qmake.mk no longer respects QT_NONSTANDARD. Ports that don't want to
|
|
get the configure environment provided by qmake.mk should add the argument
|
|
no_env, ports that don't want the configure target should specify no_configure.

Ports using USES=php:phpize, php:ext, php:zend, and php:pecl are now
|
|
flavored. They will automatically get flavors (php56, php70, php71, php72)
|
|
depending of the versions they support (set with IGNORE_WITH_PHP). As a
|
|
consequence, ports using USES=pear and USES=horde are also flavored.
|
|
|
|
As all packages must have different package names, the following variables
|
|
must be used in PKGNAMEPREFIX/SUFFIX:
|
|
|
|
Variable + Values +
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
PHP_PKGNAMEPREFIX | php56- php72- | PHP Extensions
|
|
| | and modules
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
PHP_PKGNAMESUFFIX | -php56 -php72 | PHP Applications
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
PECL_PKGNAMEPREFIX | php56-pecl- | PECL extensions
|
|
| | automatic
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
PEAR_PKGNAMEPREFIX | php56-pear- | PEAR modules
|
|
| | without PEAR_CHANNEL
|
|
PEAR_<channel>_PKGNAMEPREFIX | php56-pear-channel- | with PEAR_CHANNEL
|
|
| | automatic
|
|
|
|
In all the ports with PHP dependencies, the *_DEPENDS entries MUST end with
|
|
the flavor so that the framework knows which to build/use. This is done by
|
|
appending '@${PHP_FLAVOR}' after the origin. For example:
|
|
|
|
RUN_DEPENDS= ${PEAR_PKGNAMEPREFIX}Validate>=0.5.0:devel/pear-Validate@${PHP_FLAVOR} \
|
|
${PECL_PKGNAMEPREFIX}smbclient>=0.8.0:net/pecl-smbclient@${PHP_FLAVOR} \
|
|
|
|
PHP applications (for example, www/wordpress) can also get flavors, add the
|
|
flavors keyword to USES=php, for example: USES=php:flavors, and add
|
|
${PHP_PKGNAMESUFFIX} to its PKGNAMESUFFIX.

USES=qmake now accepts a new variable, QMAKE_CONFIGURE_ARGS.
|
|
|
|
Starting with Qt 5.8.0, qmake can use configure.json files to help define
|
|
configuration options and configuration time checks. These options are
|
|
generally in the form '-foo -no-bar', and must be passed after "--" at the
|
|
end of qmake's command line.
|
|
|
|
The QMAKE_CONFIGURE_ARGS variable allows one to set those options, and
|
|
USES=qmake takes care of passing them at the right position when invoking
|
|
qmake.

There is a new USES=eigen to depend on math/eigen[23].
|
|
|
|
Usage:
|
|
USES=eigen:<version>[,<type>]
|
|
|
|
version: 2 or 3 (required)
|
|
type: build (default), run
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
USES=eigen:2,build,run
|
|
will add a BUILD- and RUN_DEPENDS on math/eigen2, and
|
|
USES=eigen:3
|
|
will add a BUILD_DEPENDS on math/eigen3.

USES=cmake now supports two additional list variables:
|
|
* CMAKE_ON : List of variables to turn on
|
|
* CMAKE_OFF : List of variables to turn off
|
|
This can be used as a shortcut to append these to CMAKE_ARGS.
|
|
|
|
For example ports that previously set
|
|
CMAKE_ARGS= -DVAR1:BOOL=TRUE -DVAR2:BOOL=TRUE -DVAR3:BOOL=FALSE
|
|
can now set this as
|
|
CMAKE_ON= VAR1 VAR2

CMAKE_OFF= VAR3

Ports using USE_PYTHON=distutils are now flavored. They will automatically
|
|
get flavors (py27, py34, py35, py36) depending on what versions they support.
|
|
|
|
There is also a USE_PYTHON=flavors for ports that do not use distutils but
|
|
need FLAVORS to be set. A USE_PYTHON=noflavors can be set if the port is
|
|
using distutils but flavors are not wanted.
|
|
|
|
A new USE_PYTHON=optsuffix that will add PYTHON_PKGNAMESUFFIX has been added
|
|
to cope with Python ports that did not have the Python PKGNAMEPREFIX but are
|
|
flavored.
|
|
|
|
USES=python now also exports a PY_FLAVOR variable that contains the current
|
|
python flavor. It can be used in dependency lines when the port itself is
|
|
not python flavored, for example, deskutils/calibre.
|
|
|
|
By default it will only generate flavors for the versions in PYTHON2_DEFAULT
|
|
and PYTHON3_DEFAULT. Define BUILD_ALL_PYTHON_FLAVORS in your make.conf to
|
|
generate all possible flavors. A port can set USE_PYTHON=allflavors to have
|
|
all the flavors and not simply the default ones.
|
|
|
|
In all the ports with Python dependencies, the *_DEPENDS entries MUST end
|
|
with the flavor so that the framework knows which to build/use. This is done
|
|
by appending '@${PY_FLAVOR}' after the origin. For example:
|
|
|
|
RUN_DEPENDS= ${PYTHON_PKGNAMEPREFIX}six>0:devel/py-six@${PY_FLAVOR}
|
|

To help with flavored ports, helpers are available. In these, replace <*>
|
|
with the flavor name.
|
|
|
|
*_PKGNAMEPREFIX *_PKGNAMESUFFIX *_PLIST *_DESCR will overwrite the variable.
|
|
|
|
*_CONFLICTS *_CONFLICTS_BUILD *_CONFLICTS_INSTALL *_PKG_DEPENDS
|
|
*_EXTRACT_DEPENDS *_PATCH_DEPENDS *_FETCH_DEPENDS *_BUILD_DEPENDS
|
|
*_LIB_DEPENDS *_RUN_DEPENDS *_TEST_DEPENDS will append to the variable.
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
flavor2_PKGNAMESUFFIX= -foo
|
|
|
|
can replace:
|
|
|
|
.if ${FLAVOR:U} == flavor2
|
|
PKGNAMESUFFIX= -foo
|

.endif

Flavors are a way to have multiple variations of a port. The port is built
|
|
multiple times, with the variations. To declare flavors, set the FLAVORS
|
|
variable to the flavors you want defined. The first flavor will be the
|
|
default:
|
|
|
|
FLAVORS= flavor1 flavor2
|
|
|
|
The flavors MUST be lowercase, and can contain [[:lower:][:digit:]_].
|
|
|
|
Then, when building the port, pass the FLAVOR as an argument after make to
|
|
select the flavor.
|
|
|
|
$ make install FLAVOR=flavor2
|
|
|
|
In the port, you can then change the behavior depending on the value of the
|
|
FLAVOR variable. Note that the different flavors MUST have different
|
|
PKGNAMEs. Be sure to guard against an empty FLAVOR variable by using
|
|
${FLAVOR:U}:
|
|
|
|
.if ${FLAVOR:U} == flavor2
|
|
PKGNAMESUFFIX= -foo
|
|
OPTIONS_DEFAULT+= FOO
|
|
.endif

HTTPS certificates are now verified when "make makesum" fetches distfiles.
|
|
If this fails make sure you have a CA certificate bundle installed such as
|
|
security/ca_root_nss. If it still fails and there are other HTTPS sites
|
|
with a valid certificate consider removing the site from MASTER_SITES.
|
|
If the site cannot be removed you can disable certificate verification by
|
|
adding the following line to the port Makefile:

|
FETCH_ENV= SSL_NO_VERIFY_PEER=1 SSL_NO_VERIFY_HOSTNAME=1

* Qt 4's binaries have been moved to lib/qt4/bin to match what is already done
|
|
to Qt 5's binaries. Since these binaries are no longer in ${LOCALBASE}/bin,
|
|
they also do not have the -qt4 suffix in their names any more.
|
|
|
|
* Consequently, there are no Qt 4 or Qt 5 binaries in the default $PATH, and
|
|
misc/qtchooser is now used to select the actual Qt binaries. In other
|
|
words, calling "qmake" or "moc" now goes through qtchooser, which prefers
|
|
Qt 5 binaries by default.
|
|
|
|
The ports framework handles this automatically. The UPDATING entry covers
|
|
this in more detail.
|
|
|
|
* Qt 5.7.1 requires a C++11-capable compiler to be used. qmake and CMake pass
|
|
the appropriate flags to the compiler (such as -std=c++11) automatically,
|
|
but if your port fetches Qt's build flags via pkg-config (which can be the
|
|
case for autotools-based ports), you might need to take care of this
|
|
manually by setting USE_CXXSTD in your Makefile:
|
|
|
|
USE_CXXSTD= c++11

A new EXTRA_PATCH_TREE has been added. Points to a directory hierarchy with
|
|
the same layout as the ports tree, where local patches can be found. This
|
|
allows a third party to keep their patches in some other source control
|
|
system if needed.
|
|
|
|
For example, if you have EXTRA_PATCH_TREE=/patches, when building
|
|
lang/perl5.24, any file named patch-* in /patches/lang/perl5.24/ will be used
|

to patch the Perl distribution.

This adds the possibility to use regular expressions for the makeplist stage

|
of the PLIST_SUB life.
|
|
|
|
From time to time, the values are too generic, and they get in the way of
|
|
other stuff.
|
|
|
|
This adds the possibility to have a VAR_regex=regex that will be used
|
|
instead of the VAR=string to search for possible replacements.
|
|
|
|
For example, in lang/perl5*, there is PERL_ARCH=mach, which will get replaced
|
|
in paths if a file is called, say "machine", will end up being
|
|
"%%PERL_ARCH%%ine". Adding PERL_ARCH_regex="\bmach\b" will ensure only full
|
|
words are replaced, so machine will stay machine, but "lib/mach/foo "will
|
|
still be replaced by "lib/%%PERL_ARCH%%/foo".

A new stage-qa test has been added, it reports all shared libraries
|
|
dependencies that are not part of the port list of dependencies. It help
|
|
finds what is called proxy dependencies.
|
|
|
|
A is needed by B, and B is needed by C. If C also needs A, then it needs to
|
|
be registered, and this check will tell you to do so.
|
|
|
|
Right now, it is only reporting the problems, but if you add
|
|
PROXYDEPS_FATAL=yes to your environment, it will give an error and will force
|
|
you to fix the dependencies.

"make makesum" now writes the current timestamp to distinfo when it is run.
|
|
This is done to support development and prototyping efforts for reproducible
|
|
package builds, which require some concept of a "last updated" time.
|
|
|
|
The TIMESTAMP can currently be ignored for ports that have no distinfo, and
|
|
for updates done without using "make makesum."

Change the meaning of NO_WRKSUBDIR to force a WRKDIR != WRKSRC.
|
|
|
|
Right now, NO_WRKSUBDIR means that the extraction does not produce a
|
|
subdirectory, and that everything goes straight into WRKDIR. It is
|
|
problematic, because during the build of a port, quite a few files
|
|
are created in there, and then, a stage directory, where everything
|
|
is installed, and then a pkg directory where the package is created,
|
|
and those often conflict, or get in the way, of the building
|
|
process.
|
|
|
|
With this, NO_WRKSUBDIR will extract the distfiles directly into
|
|
WRKSRC instead of WRKDIR. In this case, WRKSRC is artificial and is
|
|
based on PKGNAME and not DISTNAME, mitigate conflicts with rc files.

Implemented complete support for test target.
|
|
|
|
You can now `make test' on any port to run test sequence, no-op by default.
|
|
If a port defines TEST_TARGET, it'll run sub-make with specified target,
|
|
usually `check' or `test', useful if upstream supports that. The port may
|
|
instead define custom do-test target, as well as usual satellite targets:
|
|
|
|
{pre,do,post}-test, {pre,do,post}-test-OPT, {pre,do,post}-test-OPT-off
|
|
|
|
`make test' builds and stages port first, so test may use both WRKDIR and
|
|
STAGEDIR, and both BUILD and RUN depends are available for test target.
|
|
Additionally, TEST_DEPENDS is now properly supported and may be used to
|
|
define additional depends specifically for testing.
|
|
|
|
Framework may define default tests for specific cases. For instance,
|
|
perl5.mk and cran.mk provide default test target on their own.

USE_GITHUB can now fetch multiple distfiles. It uses a grouping feature

right place in post-extract, and DISTNAME_<group>/DISTFILE_<group> for use

A simple example:

PORTNAME= bar

PORTVERSION= 1.0
|

USE_GITHUB= yes
|
|
GH_ACCOUNT= foo

|
|
|
|
post-extract:
|
|
@${MV} ${WRKSRC_images} ${WRKSRC}/images

|
|
|
It will fetch those two distfiles:
|
|
|
|
$ make fetch-urlall-list
|
|
https://codeload.github.com/foo/bar/tar.gz/1.0?dummy=/foo-bar-1.0_GH0.tar.gz
|
|
https://codeload.github.com/foo/bar-images/tar.gz/1.0?dummy=/foo-bar-images-1.0-1.0.tar.gz

Building ports in a chroot or jail have always required a particular
|
|
environment be setup. This was not clear though and the ports framework
|
|
did not enforce it. These requirements are:
|
|
1. Either a SRC_BASE/sys/sys/param.h, or /usr/include/sys/param.h be
|
|
present with the __FreeBSD_version_ number of the target system,
|
|
or OSVERSION be set in the environment. Lack of these would fallback
|
|
on kern.osreldate before, which is no longer the case.
|
|
2. UNAME_r,UNAME_v,UNAME_s all must be set for the target system.
|
|
|
|
Not having these values in sync will now cause the build to error until it is
|
|
resolved.
|
|
|
|
Setting these in the environment can be done via your own wrapper scripts,
|
|
or /etc/login.conf (along with cap_mkdb /etc/login.conf) or
|
|
via /etc/make.conf using appropriate values. Note that OSVERSION is redundant
|
|
if a proper param.h is in the environment:
|
|
|
|
OSVERSION+= 1100036
|
|
UNAME_ENV+= OSVERSION=${OSVERSION}
|
|
UNAME_ENV+= UNAME_s=FreeBSD

UNAME_ENV+= UNAME_r=11.0-CURRENT

New USES=uniquefiles to make files or directories unique
|
|
by adding a prefix or suffix to them.
|
|
|
|
Files listed in UNIQUE_PREFIX_FILES will receive the prefix
|
|
set via UNIQUE_PREFIX. The same applies to UNIQUE_SUFFIX_FILES,
|
|
but with the chosen UNIQUE_SUFFIX. UNIQUE_PREFIX and
|
|
UNIQUE_SUFFIX are set to PKGNAMEPREFIX and PKGNAMESUFFIX by
|
|
default.
|
|
The uniquefiles USES enables ports to name files in special
|
|
ways, e.g. by outlining that the port does not support X11
|
|
(-nox11). A binary named bin/foo thus can be easily renamed
|
|
to bin/foo-featureA via
|
|
|
|
USES= uniquefiles
|
|
UNIQUE_SUFFIX= -featureA
|
|
UNIQUE_SUFFIX_FILES= bin/foo
|
|
|
|
The uniquefiles USES automatically adjusts the plist at
|
|
installation time. There is no need to consider the prefix
|
|
or suffix in the pkg-plist file itself. If the original name
|
|
of the renamed file is bin/foo, this exact name should be put
|
|
into pkg-plist.
|
|
|
|
The dirs argument to USES=uniquefiles will cause certain
|
|
standard directories, such as DOCSDIR or EXAMPLESDIR to be
|
|
prepended with the UNIQUE_PREFIX. The change to the directories
|
|
will hapen prior to configuring or building the port, so that
|
|
the port Makefile as well as the port's build logic are aware
|
|
of the changed name.
|
|
|
|
Since the uniquefiles USES effectively manipulates the port's
|
|
installation and file layout, it will only be available for
|
|
stagedir-aware ports. Ports with NO_STAGE=yes will be unable
|
|
to use the uniquefiles USES.

lang/python (and as such the 'python' binary and accomplices)

USE_PYTHON_BUILD and USE_PYTHON_RUN knobs.
|
|
|

Ports need to use a designated (default) python interpreter

environment. Ports that install python scripts, which are not

of the meta ports or lang/python itself.
|

Please use lang/python as build or run-time dependency only,

The ports tree is now staged by default. With pkgng the sequence hasn't
|
|
changed, the main difference is that creating package is now independent
|
|
from installing it. With pkg_install, the package is now created first
|
|
and make install, do install the package.
|
|
|
|
New macros:
|
|
- STAGEDIR: PATH to the directory where the port will be staged.
|
|
- NO_STAGE: Keep the old behaviour of the ports tree (aka no staging area)
|
|
|
|
Unsupported macro if NO_STAGE is not set:
|
|
- MAN* with staging man page compression and handling of hardlinks and
|
|
symlinks is automatically done in the stage. the manpages becomes then a
|
|
"normal" plist files and should be tracked in pkg-plist.
|
|
- MANCOMPRESSED the compress-man target is able to only compress when it
|
|
needed.
|
|
|
|
New target:
|
|
- stage: this installs everything into the stage directory
|
|
- makeplist: this will create a pkg-plist and print it to stdout. This is
|
|
a sample plist and it should always be _reviewed_ not directly used.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: with staging only what is in the plist will be installed, nothing more,
|
|
meaning a port staged cannot have leftovers except directories left. It is
|
|
really important to double check the pkg-plist to make sure all the files
|
|
the maintainer wants to package are in! make makeplist can help in that area.

SSP support has been added to ports with WITH_SSP_PORTS for i386 and amd64
|
|
on FreeBSD 10, and amd64 on earlier versions.
|
|
|
|
SSP_UNSAFE is added to disable in a port if it fails to build, but
|
|
this should only be used in rare circumstances such as kernel modules.
|
|
Otherwise, the port may just be failing due to lack of respecting
|
|
LDFLAGS.
|
|
|
|
On FreeBSD 10, this uses an ldscript in /usr/lib/libc.so to pull in
|
|
libssp_nonshared.a to address issues linking on i386 [1].
|
|
|
|
On earlier FreeBSD versions the WITH_SSP_PORTS knob will add -lssp_nonshared
|
|
to LDFLAGS on i386. This is not needed on amd64. However, several hundred
|
|
ports do not currently respect LDFLAGS, so this support is disabled currently
|
|
as it causes build failures if a dependency is looking for the stack_chk
|
|
symbols.

USES= desktop-file-utils

Handles MimeType in .desktop files that are installed in
|
|
share/applications.
|
|
USES= shared-mime-info
|
|
For supporting mime xml files installed in
|
|
share/mime/packages.
|
|
|
|
The desktop-file-utils USES is only needed if the .desktop files
|
|
installed by the port has a MimeType field.
|
|
USE_GNOME=desktopfileutils is deprecated.
|
|
|
|
The shared-mime-info USES handles mime types xml files.
|
|
Please note that only the packages/${NAME}.xml file should be listed in
|
|
the plist. The shared-mime-info port will clean up the share/mime/*
|
|
directories and generated files.
|
|
|
|
Both USES have there own post-install and code that adds @exec/@unexec
|
|
lines to the pkg-plist. This means that when a port switches to the
|
|
USES macro, the related post-install command and @exec/@unexec

GH_ACCOUNT - account name of the GitHub user hosting the project
|
|
default: not set, mandatory
|
|
|
|
GH_PROJECT - name of the project on GitHub
|
|
default: ${PORTNAME}

Old-style OPTIONS declarations will continue to work for a while,

* LDFLAGS is now passed to both the configure and make environments,
|
|
and should be handled just like CPPFLAGS (see previous entry).
|
|
|
|
Summarizing both LDFLAGS and CPPFLAGS changes, where you would
|
|
have used
|
|
CONFIGURE_ENV= CPPFLAGS="-I${LOCALBASE}/include" \
|
|
LDFLAGS="-L${LOCALBASE}/lib"
|
|
MAKE_ENV= CPPFLAGS="-I${LOCALBASE}/include" \
|
|
LDFLAGS="-L${LOCALBASE}/lib"
|
|
now just use
|
|
CPPFLAGS+= "-I${LOCALBASE}/include"
|
|
LDFLAGS+= "-L${LOCALBASE}/lib"
|
|
|
|
Note that it's advised to append these variables (+=) instead
|
|
of overriding (=) to allow customization by user.

* CPPFLAGS is now passed to both the configure and make environments,
|
|
so this no longer needs to happen in individual ports by adding this
|
|
to CONFIGURE_ENV or MAKE_ENV. Rather, just set CPPFLAGS in the port
|
|
Makefile (if necessary).
|
|
|
|
For example, where you would have used
|
|
CONFIGURE_ENV= CPPFLAGS="-I${LOCALBASE}/include"
|
|
MAKE_ENV= SOMETHING=foo CPPFLAGS="-I${LOCALBASE}/include"
|
|
now just use
|
|
CPPFLAGS= "-I${LOCALBASE}/include"

|
|
bsd.perl.mk. This includes the user-settable knobs (e.g. USE_PERL5)
|
|
and infrastructure parts of the code, like default targets. The new
|

USE_PERL5_*, PERL_CONFIGURE, or PERL_MODBUILD being set. However,
|
|
some of the default settings remain in bsd.port.mk while we make
|

sure that all ports comply with this.
|
|
|
|
* A convenient version handling has been implemented for Perl-related
|

or read-only (share) permissions on files.
|
|

|
|
|
|
* A new pkg-plist keyword is available, @stopdaemon. It will call forcestop
|
|
on all rc.subr scripts installed by the port on deinstall, effectively
|
|
stopping services on deinstall/upgrade.
|
|
|
|
* rc.subr script suffix is now available in Makefile as RC_SUBR_SUFFIX.
|
|
|
|
* New variable USE_CDRTOOLS was introduced. It replaced direct dependencies
|
|
on sysutils/cdrtools port. It now automatically support switching to
|
|
cdrtools-cjk port when user specified WITH_CJK. All ports were converted.
|
|
|
|
* USE_DOS2UNIX, infrastructure for converting DOS to UNIX line feeds, was
|
|
enhanced by a new variable DOS2UNIX_REGEX. It allows to specify a find
|
|
-iregex parameter to limit touched files by file extensions.
|
|
|
|
* Support for partially translated manpages was added. For examples of
|
|
usage, please refer to Porter's Handbook.
|
|
|
|
* USE_TCL/USE_TK variables were changed to provide runtime dependency. New
|

|
|
|
|
* USE_LDCONFIG was fixed to work properly for ports, that specify @cwd in the
|
|
pkg-plists.
|
|
|
|
* Old bsd.java.mk version 1.0 macros were removed.
|

The following functional changes were made to bsd.port.mk:

instead of 2, to allow OPTIONS to be able to influence dependencies.
|
|
This is still experimental and not yet enabled by any port. This adds
|
|
the file 'bsd.port.options.mk'.
|
|
|
|
* bsd.gcc.mk has been updated to understand gfortran.
|
|
|
|
* emulators/linux_base is now removed. linux_base-fc4 has been the default
|
|

|
|

The following functional changes were made to bsd.sites.mk:
|

|
* MASTER_SITES variable can now look like MACRO1/subdir1 MACRO2/subdir2, and
|
|
be expanded in a way that you expect it to, that is apply different subdirs
|
|
to different sites. You can safely replace ${M_S_FOO:S/%SUBDIR%/bar/} with
|
|
FOO/bar.
|
|
|
|
* If M_S_SUBDIR is unset, a macro in M_S won't set it anymore, but rather
|
|
substitute %SUBDIR% all by itself. Now it's possible to use macros with
|
|
different default subdirs and they will expand in a proper way.
|

|
The following functional changes were made to bsd.sites.mk:
|
|
|
|
* MASTER_SITES variable can now contain special macros which are expanded into
|
|
traditional URL[:group] syntax and cause some convenient effects, e.g. set a
|
|
default M_S_SUBDIR.
|
|
|
|
* A macro is any space-delimited word in MASTER_SITES without a forward slash.
|
|
|
|
* If MASTER_SITE_<macro> is defined, then the macro is expanded to its value.
|
|
|
|
* Abbreviated macros are provided for extremely popular locations, e.g. CPAN
|
|
and SF. To avoid further obfuscation their unabbreviated equivalents should
|
|
be avoided.
|
|
|
|
* Popular macros can trigger M_S_SUBDIR to default to a predefined value, e.g.
|
|
${PORTNAME:L} for SF and ${PORTNAME:C/-.*//} for CPAN.
|
|
|
|
* Abbreviations and M_S_SUBDIR defaults are defined by MASTER_SITES_ABBREVS
|
|
and MASTER_SITES_SUBDIRS, both set in bsd.sites.mk.
|
|
|
|
* If a macro belongs to a group (e.g. SF:source1), all the sites it expands
|
|
into also belong to the same group.
|
|
|
|
* Macros and traditional URL's can be mixed safely, their order stays intact.

The following functional changes were made to bsd.*.mk and to
|
|
Tools/scripts/security-check.awk:
|
|
|
|
* Add DESTDIR support to let one install ports into a jail from outside.
|
|
A package is installed under ${DESTDIR}${PREFIX} now and registered under
|
|
${DESTDIR}/var/db/pkg.
|
|
|
|
* TARGETDIR variable has been added for referencing ${DESTDIR}${PREFIX}.
|
|
|
|
* LOCALBASE, LINUXBASE and X11BASE variables point to the final destination
|
|
now, LOCALBASE_REL, LINUXBASE_REL and X11BASE_REL can be used for the
|
|
old behavior. The behavior has not been changed in PLIST_SUB.
|
|
Note, that the three variables are still overridable with a hack, so this
|
|
change doesn't affect POLA, but necessary for DESTDIR support.
|
|
|
|
* OSVERSION is now determined from the userland, not from the kernel.
|
|
Cross-compiling between releases is still not supported, but this
|
|
behavior is more correct for jails with differing userland from
|
|
the kernel version.
|
|
|
|
* Add some sanity check for PREFIX and DESTDIR. This can be skipped by
|
|
defining IGNORE_PATH_CHECKS, but very discouraged.
|
|
|
|
* Deinstalling from DESTDIR, determining if a port is already installed in
|
|
DESTDIR, etc. are implemented by chrooting those specific commands.
|
|
|
|
* Text changes to reflect that we are installing to DESTDIR, removing from
|
|
DESTDIR, etc.
|
|
|
|
Note, that this change implements only the infrastructure support. Ports should
|
|
also be implemented to respect DESTDIR.

these variables all had already set IGNORE, not BROKEN, so they

${PREFIX}/libdata/ldconfig32/${UNIQUENAME} instead. (Note: this should

GNOME has been upgraded from 2.10.2 to 2.12.1. This update brings with
|
|
it many important porting changes:
|
|
|
|
- gtk20's pkg-config file no longer contains the X11 pango modules.
|
|
Therefore, if your port requires these modules, you may have to
|
|
manually patch them in to your port's Makefiles. Contact
|
|
gnome@FreeBSD.org if you have questions on this.
|
|
|
|
- A new USE_GNOME component, ltverhack, has been added. This
|
|
pseudo-component hacks libtool so that shared library versions are
|
|
more consistent with other operating systems. Using this component
|
|
can prevent unnecessary shared library version changes.
|
|
|
|
- A new macro, INSTALLS_ICONS, has been added. If your port installs
|
|
Freedesktop-style icons to ${LOCALBASE}/share/icons or
|
|
${X11BASE}/share/icons, then you should use this macro. NOTE:
|
|
use of this macro requires your port to set either USE_GNOME or
|
|
WANT_GNOME.

|
- USE_LINUX now implies NO_FILTER_SHLIBS=yes. It also doesn't use FreeBSD
|
|
tools to strip binaries anymore, so it's not necessary anymore to override
|
|
STRIP and STRIP_CMD.
|
|
- USE_LINUX_PREFIX implies NO_MTREE now.
|
|
- In the USE_LINUX case, USE_XLIB now depends upon the Linux X11 libraries
|
|
instead upon the native FreeBSD libraries.
|
|
- The variable LINUX_BASE_PORT contains a string which is suitable as an
|
|
item in *_DEPENDS, so if a port BATCH_DEPENDS or FETCH_DEPENDS upon the
|
|
default (or overridden) Linux base, ${LINUX_BASE_PORT} should be used
|
|
instead of a hardcoded reference.
|
|
- If USE_LINUX or OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE doesn't point to an existing linux_base
|
|
port and if USE_LINUX isn't set to "yes" (case insensitive), the port will
|
|
be marked as IGNORE.

The CVSup port has been upgraded with a patch to correct the
|
|
handling of the "refuse" file for files that are in the CVS Attic.
|
|
This solves a problem some people were having, where CVSup would
|
|
delete their ports/INDEX* files even though the files were listed
|
|
in the "refuse" file. The bug fix is in the cvsupd server, so
|
|
mirror sites must upgrade their servers in order for this fix to
|
|
help. Meanwhile, adding "ports/Attic/INDEX*" to the refuse file
|
|
serves as a work-around.

list of available GNOME 2 components.

Py-gnome2 lost many of its GNOME dependencies to a new port,

py-gnome-extras. Therefore, ports that used to depend on

the pygnome2 component for modules such as gtkhtml2, gnomepanel, etc.

There has been a big update to PHP ports and bsd.php.mk to add more
|
|
flexibility and new features.
|
|
Now a port may depend on a specific set of PHP extensions. To do so,
|
|
simply replace:
|
|
|
|
USE_PHP= yes
|
|
|
|
with:
|
|
|
|
USE_PHP= ext1 ext2 ext3 ...
|
|
|
|
in the port Makefile. A list of all PHP extensions is included in bsd.php.mk.
|
|
If the requirement is a build dependency too, the port should also define:
|
|
|
|
USE_PHP_BUILD=yes
|
|
|
|
Moreover, the new knob WANT_PHP_SCR has been added to indicate that the port
|
|
requires the 'php' binary to run.
|
|
Last but not least, many common operations to build/install/register a
|
|
PHP extension can now be omitted from the port Makefile if it defines:
|
|
|
|
USE_PHPEXT= yes
|
|
|
|
For more information on this point and on additional variables, see
|
|
bsd.php.mk.

OpenLDAP version 2.2 is now the default.
|
|
When your port links against the openldap client libraries use
|
|
USE_OPENLDAP= yes
|
|
and do not depend on a particular version. A user (or package
|
|
building cluster) can select the desired flavor with
|
|
WANT_OPENLDAP_VER and WANT_OPENLDAP_SASL, but these must not
|
|
be used in ports Makefiles.

USE_LIBTOOL_VER now configures a port to use the ports version of libtool
|
|
instead of its included version. This was put in place to reduce the
|
|
number of ad hoc patches to individual ports' libtools to prevent .la
|
|
file installation as well as fix various threading problems.
|
|
|
|
To restore the previous libtool behavior, use the new macro,
|
|
USE_INC_LIBTOOL_VER. It works the exact same way as USE_LIBTOOL_VER
|
|
in that it takes a libtool version as its argument.
|
|
|
|
For example, to use the included version of libtool with extra hacks
|
|
provided by libtool-1.5, add the following to your Makefile:
|
|
|
|
USE_INC_LIBTOOL_VER= 15
|
|
|
|
To use the ports version of libtool-1.5, add the following to
|
|
your Makefile:
|
|
|
|
USE_LIBTOOL_VER= 15
|
|
|
|
Note: these macros are mutually exclusive. Your port should only include
|
|
one or the other if it needs to make use of libtool.

The way GConf schema files are installed has changed to support the upcoming
|
|
GNOME 2.8 GConf. Details about the change can be found at
|
|
http://www.FreeBSD.org/gnome/docs/porting.html. All existing ports have
|
|
been converted to the new style, and portlint has been updated to flag
|

old-style GConf schema installation.

The following behavioral or feature changes were committed:
|
|
|
|
* Support verbose index builds with INDEX_VERBOSE
|
|
|
|
* Support glob expressions in USE_GETTEXT to allow more flexibility
|
|
in the face of future gratuitous library version bumps by the gettext
|
|
developers:
|
|
|
|
USE_GETTEXT=yEs # Works as before (case-insensitive)
|
|
USE_GETTEXT=[5-7] # Accepts any of those libintl.so.x versions
|
|
# in the LIB_DEPENDS
|
|
|
|
* Extend 'make search' support to allow much more flexible searching
|
|
From the PR:
|
|
|
|
Besides the good old key and name variables, this patch adds
|
|
support for path, info, maint, cat, bdeps, and rdeps, which match
|
|
on the appropriate fields, plus their exclusion counterparts: xkey,
|
|
xname, etc.
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
|
|
Find all ports whose names contain "pear-" but not "html" or "http":
|
|
|
|
make search name=pear- xname='ht(tp|ml)'
|
|
|
|
Find ports whose names contain "pear-" and which don't have apache
|
|
listed in build-time dependencies:
|
|
|
|
make search name=pear- xbdeps=apache
|
|
|
|
The positive variables (name, key, maint, etc) are AND-ed, their
|
|
negative versions are OR-ed; in other words, matching any x-
|
|
variable will cause the port to be skipped, mismatch on any non-x-
|
|
variable will cause it to be skipped.
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
|
|
Find ports that are both in the 'www' category and maintained by
|
|
Thierry Thomas:
|
|
|
|
make search maint=thierry@ path=/www/
|
|
|
|
Find ports in the 'archivers' category that are either not orphaned
|
|
or don't have "zip" in their names (contrived):
|
|
|
|
make search cat=archivers xmaint=ports@freebsd xname=zip
|
|
|
|
It is possible to select fields to display.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
Find PEAR ports that don't build-depend on apache, displaying only
|
|
Port:, Path:, and Info: lines:
|
|
|
|
make search name=pear- xbdeps=apache display=name,path,info
|
|
|
|
Case-sensitivity can now be turned of with icase=1.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
Find ports with @freebsd.org maintainer addresses without the
|
|
"proper" capitalization (@FreeBSD.org), display their paths and
|
|
maintainer addresses:
|
|
|
|
make search maint=@freebsd\\.org icase=0 display=maint,path
|
|
|
|
The key and xkey variables can be limited in scope to displayed fields
|
|
by setting keylim to 1.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
Find ports that contain "apache" in either of the name, path, info
|
|
fields, ignore the rest of the record (dependencies, maintainer
|
|
address, etc):
|
|
|
|
make search key=apache display=name,path,info keylim=1
|
|
|
|
The following variables can be set e.g. in /etc/make.conf to
|
|
control default search behavior:
|
|
|
|
PORTSEARCH_DISPLAY_FIELDS?=name,path,info,maint,index,bdeps,rdeps
|
|
PORTSEARCH_KEYLIM?=0
|
|
PORTSEARCH_XKEYLIM?=0
|
|
PORTSEARCH_IGNORECASE?=1
|
|
|
|
* Extend USE_PERL5_BUILD and USE_PERL5 to add EXTRACT and PATCH
|
|
dependencies
|
|
|
|
* While building index, treat non-existent dependencies as fatal.
|
|
Previously the error was being hidden by the stderr
|
|
redirection.
|
|
|
|
* Don't always retry BROKEN ports when package building (it is taking
|
|
too much time to continually rebuild ports that are usually going
|
|
to really be broken). Set TRYBROKEN if you want to attempt a
|
|
build of a BROKEN port.

Over the past few weeks, we have been testing the next
|
|
incarnation of ports/Mk/bsd.autotools.mk on the road to bringing
|
|
at least some semblance of sanity back to this corner of the
|
|
ports collection.
|
|
|
|
By far and away the easiest way to see the changes will be to
|
|
view the new file once committed, but here is a summary of the
|
|
changes:
|
|
|
|
1. USE_LIBTOOL, USE_AUTOCONF, USE_AUTOHEADER, USE_AUTOMAKE have
|
|
been fully deprecated. Ports attempting to use these variables
|
|
after the commit will error out, and most obviously break INDEX
|
|
generation, with a helpful error message. Instead, ports must
|
|
now specifically choose the version of any of these tools that
|
|
they need with the corresponding USE_*_VER variables. Note that
|
|
these variables understand any and all versions of autotools ports
|
|
in the tree, there is no longer a need to have specific version
|
|
numbers hardcoded in the infrastructure of bsd.autotools.mk
|
|
(as there is now). In particular, this will immediately open up
|
|
automake18 and autoconf259 for general use and beating.
|
|
|
|
2. Similarly for WANT_LIBTOOL, WANT_AUTOCONF, and WANT_AUTOMAKE.
|
|
Again, these have been fully deprecated, and the equivalent
|
|
WANT_*_VER versions should be used.
|
|
|
|
In order to preserve existing behavior for these variables, please
|
|
note the 20040314 entry in ports/CHANGES for the appropriate
|
|
version numbers to use for any ports in the GNATS queue.
|
|
|
|
Both WANT_* and USE_* bring in the relevant tool as a build
|
|
dependency, and set up a reasonably large number of variables
|
|
pointing to the right programs to be using in the port. The
|
|
only difference at the moment, is that USE_* will run an extra
|
|
autotools-related configuration step, whereas WANT_* merely
|
|
requests the environment.
|
|
|
|
3. The helper knob USE_LIBLTDL has been added which currently
|
|
simply adds a LIB dependency on the libltdl port.
|
|
|
|
4. Three new variables have been introduced,
|
|
WANT_{LIBTOOL,AUTOCONF,AUTOMAKE}_RUN=yes. These variables will
|
|
do nothing by themselves (a Work-In-Progress), but if the
|
|
appropriate autotool version is defined (either through
|
|
WANT_*_VER or USE_*_VER), this will add the relevant dependency
|
|
to RUN_DEPENDS.
|
|
|
|
Steps 3 and 4 now essentially negate the need for any kind of
|
|
direct dependency within a non-autotools port Makefile on
|
|
devel/autoconf*, devel/automake*, devel/libtool*, and devel/libltdl.

There has been a couple of bsd.java.mk tweaks and fixes.
|
|
|
|
. Features from Stage 2 has been removed. A port can no
|
|
longer use the JDK dependency features by setting JAVA_HOME.
|
|
Use JAVA_PREFERRED_PORT instead (see below).
|
|
|
|
. The default JDK port now depends on OS version:
|
|
java/diablo-jdk13 for 4.x, and java/jdk14 for 5.x
|
|
|
|
. It is now possible for the user (and the porters) to
|
|
define a list of preferred JDK ports to build and run ports.
|
|
The port will use the first JDK port from the list that
|
|
matches the requirements specified in the Makefile.
|
|
JAVA_PREFERRED_PORT contains a list of suitable JDK ports
|
|
(sorted by preference). Names for JDKs may be found in
|
|
bsd.java.mk, listed in ${_JAVA_PORTS_ALL} (e.g.
|
|
"JAVA_PORT_NATIVE_BSDJAVA_1_4").
|
|
|
|
. JAVA_PORT_VERSION is now set to the full version number
|
|
of the chosen JDK (e.g. "1.4.2"). Porters will find hints
|
|
regarding how to obtain the same behavior as before in the
|
|
header of bsd.java.mk.

When writing a port that uses GTK+ 2.X, you can now list the dependency
|
|
with "USE_GNOME=gtk20" which is preferable to LIB_DEPENDS because the
|
|
GTK+ library version only needs to be changed in bsd.gnome.mk.
|
|
|
|
Please see http://www.FreeBSD.org/gnome/docs/porting.html for all
|
|
the available GNOME components as well as detailed instructions on
|
|
creating ports that use the GNOME infrastructure.

The glib20 and gtk20 ports were updated to 2.4.0. This new version
|
|
is completely source and binary compatible with the previous 2.2.x
|
|
series. However, certain API calls have been deprecated. If your
|
|
port defines the following macros, they may refuse to build with
|
|
the new versions of glib20 and gtk20:
|
|
|
|
GTK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED
|
|
GDK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED
|
|
G_DISABLE_DEPRECATED
|
|
|
|
The temporary solution is to either patch your port's Makefiles to,
|
|
or use an in-place regular expression to remove these macros. The
|
|
more permanent solution is to wait until the port's authors update
|
|
their code to use current API calls.

There has been a big update to bsd.java.mk. However, this update
|
|
is mostly backwards compatible, so it shouldn't affect most java
|
|
port maintainers. There is some new functionality and minor
|
|
changes worth documenting here though.
|
|
|
|
bsd.java.mk now provides a new set of macros to be used by ports that
|
|
require a JDK. When USE_JAVA is set, the following variables may be set
|
|
in order to give to precision regarding the requirements of the port:
|
|
|
|
. JAVA_VERSION
|
|
A list of space-separated suitable java versions for the
|
|
port. An optional "+" allows you to specify a range of versions.
|
|
(allowed values: 1.1[+] 1.2[+] 1.3[+] 1.4[+])
|
|
(NOTE: Used to be set by bsd.java.mk)
|
|
. JAVA_OS
|
|
A list of space-separated suitable JDK port operating systems
|
|
for the port. (allowed values: native linux)
|
|
(NOTE: Used to be set by bsd.java.mk)
|
|
. JAVA_VENDOR
|
|
A list of space-separated suitable JDK port vendors for
|
|
the port. (allowed values: freebsd bsdjava sun ibm blackdown)
|
|
(NOTE: Used to be set by bsd.java.mk)
|
|
. JAVA_BUILD
|
|
When set, it means that the selected JDK port should be
|
|
added to build dependencies for the port.
|
|
. JAVA_RUN
|
|
This variable works exactly the same as JAVA_BUILD but
|
|
regarding run dependencies.
|
|
|
|
Here are some of the macros defined after setting USE_JAVA:
|
|
|
|
. JAVA_PORT
|
|
The name of the JDK port (e.g. java/jdk14)
|
|
. JAVA_HOME
|
|
The home of the JDK port in the local base
|
|
. JAVA_PORT_VERSION
|
|
The version of the JDK port.
|
|
(NOTE: Used to be JAVA_VERSION, see above)
|
|
. JAVA_PORT_OS
|
|
The operating system used by the JDK port.
|
|
(NOTE: Used to be JAVA_OS, see above)
|
|
. JAVA_PORT_VENDOR
|
|
The vendor of the JDK port.
|
|
(NOTE: Used to be JAVA_VENDOR, see above)
|
|
|
|
Plus many macros for the commonly used java executables:
|
|
|
|
APPLETVIEWER, JAR, JAVA, JAVAC, JAVADOC, JAVAH,
|
|
JAVAP, JAVA_KEYTOOL, JAVA_N2A, JAVA_POLICYTOOL,
|
|
JAVA_SERIALVER, RMIC, RMID and RMIREGISTRY.
|
|
|
|
bsd.java.mk 2.0 is mostly backward compatible with the previous
|
|
version, save for the notes above and changed internal variables.
|
|
Using the new features is strongly encouraged, since the old
|
|
bsd.java.mk 1.0 features will be deprecated and may be removed in
|
|
the future.

The print/freetype2 port has been updated to 2.1.7. This update
|
|
changes some of the internal FreeType API. Applications may need
|
|
to be patched to support this new API. If a source files includes
|
|
freetype/freetype.h, make sure ft2build.h is included before
|
|
freetype/freetype.h. The proper way to do this is:
|
|
|
|
#include <ft2build.h>
|
|
#include FT_FREETYPE_H
|
|
|
|
However, the following will work as well, but is deprecated:
|
|
|
|
#include <ft2build.h>
|

#include <freetype/freetype.h>

USE_LIBTOOL, USE_AUTOCONF, and USE_AUTOMAKE are now considered
|
|
deprecated, and will be removed on or around June 1st 2004.
|
|
All ports should now choose the specific version of the tool,
|
|
using USE_LIBTOOL_VER, USE_AUTOCONF_VER, and USE_AUTOMAKE_VER.
|
|
The old "system default" behavior can be written as follows:
|
|
|
|
Old New
|
|
USE_LIBTOOL=yes USE_LIBTOOL_VER=13
|
|
USE_AUTOCONF=yes USE_AUTOCONF_VER=213

MASTER_SITE_SOURCEFORGE only has five. To check if your

port is mirrored there, go to
|
|
<http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/${MASTER_SITE_SUBDIR}/>

The default version of Ruby is now 1.8 on all platforms
|
|
including the i386.
|
|
|
|
Users on the i386 platform need to follow the instructions
|
|
described in the UPDATING file to cope with this upgrade.
|
|
|
|
Next time ruby is major upgraded, you won't need to do this
|
|
kind of messy work because some subtle changes have been made
|
|
to the ruby port infrastructure to make it easier to handle
|
|
multiple versions of ruby.

Mozilla will now default to using GTK2, and will only compile
|
|
against Gtk+-1.2 if explicitly requested. This is in exact
|
|
opposite to the old behavior.
|
|
|
|
The valid values of WITH_MOZILLA are now:
|
|
mozilla (www/mozilla, GTK2)
|
|
mozilla-devel (www/mozilla-devel, GTK2)
|
|
mozilla-gtk1 (www/mozilla-gtk1, GTK1)
|
|
mozilla-devel-gtk1 (www/mozilla-devel-gtk1, GTK1)
|
|
|
|
As before, WITH_MOZILLA can be set in /etc/make.conf, but doing
|
|
so is not advised unless you desire the development versions.
|
|
GTK2 browsers will automatically compile against GTK2 mozilla,
|
|
and GTK1 browsers (galeon1, galeon1, and galeon1) will
|
|
automatically compile against GTK1.
|
|
|
|
Again, the only people who will need to take action are those
|
|
who desire development versions (which are inactive at this time
|
|
anyway). Those who want GTK1 mozilla-devel must set
|
|
WITH_MOZILLA=mozilla-devel-gtk1 or they will be pleasantly
|
|
surprised with their very own GTK2 installation on the next
|
|
update.
|
|
|
|
WITH_MOZILLA=mozilla-gtk2 and WITH_MOZILLA=mozilla-devel-gtk2
|
|
are still honored for the time being, but their use is
|
|
now deprecated. Any new ports are not required to consider
|
|
their values, and so eventually WITH_MOZILLA _will_ have to
|
|
be changed.
|
|
|
|
Hopefully galeon2 can catch up to peoples' expectations from
|
|
galeon1 soon, and we can remove the GTK1 ports altogether.

The bsd.php.mk file has been moved out of the lang/php4 port
|
|
into the Mk directory. This will make it much easier to include
|
|
PHP support in PHP-dependent ports. Instead of including
|
|
bsd.php.mk directly, a port can simply set USE_PHP=yes, and the
|
|
ports system with Do the Right Thing.
|
|
|
|
All trailing whitespace has been removed from bsd.port.mk.
|
|
|
|
Enhance the new OPTIONS code by only including saved options if
|
|
the port defines OPTIONS, attempt to use LATEST_LINK as the
|
|
unique name for a port (fall back to ${PKGNAMEPREFIX}${PORTNAME}
|
|
otherwise), bring the ===> messages in line with the existing
|
|
ones by using PKGNAME instead of PORTNAME, use PKGNAME in the
|
|
dialog, use ECHO_CMD instead of ECHO_MSG to write the
|
|
OPTIONSFILE, display a message during compilation indicating
|
|
that user-specified options have been found, and make the output
|
|
of the showconfig target a little more user-friendly.
|
|
|
|
A new USE_ICONV macro has been added that takes the place of an
|
|
explicit LIB_DEPENDS on converters/libiconv. This will help
|
|
with future shared lib version bumps.
|
|
|
|
A new USE_GETTEXT macro has been added that takes the place of
|
|
an explicit LIB_DEPENDS on devel/gettext. This will help with
|
|
future shared lib version bumps.
|
|
|
|
Module::Build is a system for building, testing, and installing
|
|
Perl modules. It will eventually replace the obsoleted
|
|
ExtUtils::MakeMaker. Many new Perl modules have already
|
|
switched to using Build.PL instead of Makefile.PL. To
|
|
facilitate building those modules, a new PERL_MODBUILD macro has
|
|
been added. Use that in place of PERL_CONFIGURE when porting
|
|
Perl modules that make use of the Module::Build framework.
|
|
|
|
Certain ports want to check for the availability of SDL
|
|
libraries before including them. This change adds a new
|
|
WANT_SDL macro similar to WANT_GNOME. By setting this, the
|
|
porter indicates that her port can optional use SDL if present
|
|
on the system. WANT_SDL should be defined _before_
|
|
bsd.port.pre.mk is included. After including bsd.port.pre.mk,
|
|
the list of available SDL components will be returned in the
|
|
HAVE_SDL macro. For details on how to process this component
|
|
list, refer to bsd.sdl.mk.
|
|
|
|
The OpenBSD and NetBSD projects diverged from the FreeBSD ports
|
|
tree years ago, and it no longer make sense to include obsolete
|
|
references to incorrect paths in the FreeBSD ports system. This
|
|
change removes the NetBSD and OpenBSD PORTSDIR compatibility
|
|
bits from bsd.port.mk.
|
|
|
|
The comment for PKGDIR read, ``A direction containing any
|
|
package creating file.'' The word ``direction'' should be
|
|
``directory.'' This has been fixed.
|
|
|
|
A new DIRNAME macro has been added that points to
|
|
/usr/bin/dirname. All direct use of dirname in ports can be
|
|
switched to this macro.
|
|
|
|
Direct use of commands dirname, id, and rm have been corrected
|
|
to use their macro equivalents instead. Some useless ${HEAD}
|
|
-n 1 statements have been removed. A strange comment in the
|
|
do-install target and an out of place ``fi'' have been fixed as
|
|
well.
|
|
|
|
On 5-CURRENT after the 5.2-RELEASE split, the default Perl
|
|
version has been updated from 5.6.1 to 5.8.2. As well, some
|
|
Perl definitions in bsd.port.mk have been moved to their correct
|
|
locations which corrects the PERL_LEVEL definition.
|
|
|
|
The following optimizations have been added to the ports system
|
|
to speed up recursive operations such as make describe, make
|
|
index, make ignorelist, etc. bsd.gnome.mk is now only included
|
|
if a port defines USE_GNOME, WANT_GNOME, and/or USE_GTK. More
|
|
variables are cached and passed down through bsd.port.subdir.mk.
|
|
Perl is no longer invoked when a simple ``echo'' will do. More
|
|
subshell variable assignments have been hidden behind
|
|
conditionals so that the commands are not spawned every time.
|
|
Finally, dependency lists are only constructed if ports actually
|
|
declare dependencies. These optimizations give make index
|
|
approximately a 43% speedup.
|
|
|
|
If CPUFLAGS is not defined (this _CPUCFLAGS is empty), trying
|
|
to remove _CPUCFLAGS from CFLAGS will result in an error. This
|
|
change fixes that.
|
|
|
|
On recent versions of 5.X, /etc/rc.subr exists, and there is no
|
|
reason to install another copy in ${LOCALBASE}/etc. The reason
|
|
this was ever done was to workaround some build issues on bento.
|
|
However, testing OSVERSION seems to work in spite of those build
|
|
issues.
|
|
|
|
The ports system now supports MySQL 3.23, 4.0, 4.1, and 5.0.
|
|
Also, the ability to scale to newer versions was also but in
|
|
place.
|
|
|
|
An .endif comment indicated that the .if block checked
|
|
WANT_MYSQL when, in fact, it was checking WANT_MYSQL_VER. This
|
|
has been corrected.
|
|
|
|
The PTHREAD{CFLAGS,LIBS} macros have been made overridable on
|
|
all versions of FreeBSD to allow for alternate threading
|
|
implementations (e.g. -lc_r, -lthr, -mt, etc.). The default
|
|
threading library has been changed to -lpthread from -lc_r on
|
|
-CURRENT.
|
|
|
|
The new SIZE support broke distfiles fetching on FreeBSD < 4.8.
|
|
On those versions of FreeBSD, the SIZE distfile attribute is now
|
|
ignored. Also, defining DISABLE_SIZE in, for example,
|
|
/etc/make.conf, will ignore the SIZE attribute on all versions
|
|
of FreeBSD. This is useful with alternate values for FETCH_CMD.
|
|
|
|
A new vulnerabilities database has been added to the ports
|
|
system in order to keep more accurate, up-to-date, track of
|
|
security vulnerabilities. The ports system now knows how to
|
|
query that database and dynamically prevents the installation
|
|
of vulnerable ports.
|
|
|
|
In order to allow for more rapid development of the package
|
|
tools, the ports system will prefer to use pkg_* tools found in
|
|
${LOCALBASE} over those in the base system. However, all PKG_*
|
|
macros are still overridable.
|
|
|
|
A new physical category, net-mgmt, has been created to house
|
|
network management ports.
|
|
|
|
The /var/db/port.mkversion file never really took off, and is
|
|
now very obsolete. Replace the code used to generate and check
|
|
this file with a simple OSVERSION check. The ports system now
|
|
requires FreeBSD 4.3 or higher.
|
|
|
|
The last round of bsd.*.mk changes broke ports that had
|
|
duplicate distinfo entries (e.g. linux_base). This is now
|
|
fixed. Along with this fix, only distfiles with a bad checksum
|
|
will be refetched, where as distfiles missing from distinfo will
|
|
not be refetched.
|
|
|
|
The PLIST_{DIRS,FILES} macros were passed to the final package
|
|
list unchanged by PLIST_SUB. This is not always desirable.
|
|
Now, those macros are passed through PLIST_SUB.
|
|
|
|
The previous OPTIONS code assumed users would be running port
|
|
build as root. If this was not the case, OPTIONS configuration
|
|
would fail. Now, the bits of the config and rmconfig targets
|
|
that require write access to system directories are run under
|
|
SU_CMD.
|
|
|
|
The makesum target will now add a SIZE attribute for each
|
|
distfile by default. This can be overridden by defining NO_SIZE
|
|
in a port's Makefile. Note: this could probably be expanded to
|
|
omit SIZE attributes for specific distfiles in the future.

|
|
SIZE lines in distinfo files: if you set USE_SIZE when you do "make
|
|
makesum", the byte sizes of the distfiles will be listed in the
|
|
distinfo file. Then, if a distfile is replaced on its master site with
|
|
one of a different size than that listed, "make fetch" will fail with a
|
|
"size mismatch" error before downloading the file and the user will be
|
|
asked to fetch the file by hand. Also, a user will know the size of
|
|
the distfiles before fetching and decide to fetch later.
