This file documents some of the problems you may encounter when
|
|
upgrading your ports. We try our best to minimize these disruptions,
|
|
but sometimes they are unavoidable.
|
|
|
|
You should get into the habit of checking this file for changes each
|
|
time you update your ports collection, before attempting any port
|
|
upgrades.

|
|
AUTHOR: brix@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
If password based logins is enabled in ikiwiki, those passwords were
|
|
stored in cleartext in the userdb. To guard against exposing users'
|
|
passwords, ikiwiki 2.48 and later use strong (blowfish) hashes for
|
|
storing passwords.
|
|
|
|
To hash existing passwords, update to ikiwiki-2.48 and run the
|
|
following command for each of your ikiwiki src dirs:
|
|
|
|
ikiwiki-transition hashpassword /path/to/your/wiki/srcdir

AFFECTS: users of secutity/amavisd-new
|
|
AUTHOR: scheidell@secnap.net
|
|
|
|
Amavisd-new 2.6.0 introduces several incompatibilities with prior versions.
|
|
If you are upgrading from 2.5.4 or earlier, you will need to update your
|
|
sql schema. If you have third party programs that access sql tables, you
|
|
will need to update those also.
|
|
|
|
COMPATIBILITY WITH 2.5.4
|
|
|
|
- when using SQL for logging (e.g. for a pen pals feature) or for
|
|
quarantining, SQL tables tables maddr, msgs, msgrcpt and quarantine need
|
|
to be extended by a new field 'partition_tag'; see below for details;
|
|
|
|
- when SQL logging (pen pals) or SQL lookups are used, one can choose a
|
|
binary or a character data type for fields users.email, mailaddr.email,
|
|
and maddr.email; now may be a good opportunity to change a data type
|
|
to binary (string of bytes); see below for details;
|
|
|
|
- when using SQL for logging, a default for $sql_clause{'upd_msg'}
|
|
has changed, so if a configuration file replaces this SQL clause
|
|
by a non-default setting, it needs to be updated;
|
|

|
AUTHOR: jadawin@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
Ampache 3.4 uses a different config parser. Unfortunately the new parser
|
|
is unable to read old config files. You must run php
|
|
${WWWDIR}/bin/migrate_config.inc from the command line.
|

20080508:
|
|
AFFECTS: users of databases/ptop
|
|
AUTHOR: beech@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
The authors have changed the name of this utility to pg_top. To avoid
|
|
conflicts with another port in the tree with the same name we have retained
|
|
'ptop' as the portname. Also note, the binary has also changed to pg_top.
|
|
Please start the utility with that name after updating.

|
AUTHOR: daniel@roe.ch

Previously, net-mgmt/collectd used to remove the config file
|
|
even if it was changed by the user. This has now been fixed.
|
|
To upgrade without losing your configuration, copy
|
|
${PREFIX}/etc/collectd.conf away to a safe place before
|
|
upgrading net-mgmt/collectd.
|
|
In addition, the default location of the data files changed

|
|
5. Install emulators/linux_base-fc6
|
|
6 Remount linprocfs (mount /compat/linux/proc)
|
|
7. Add compat.linux.osrelease=2.6.16 to etc/sysctl.conf
|
|
8. Add OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT=fc6 to /etc/make.conf
|
|
|
|
Note: These instructions also apply to linux_base-f8, please use the same
|
|
osrelease.
|
|
|
|
For FreeBSD versions 5.x and 6.x:
|
|
Please use the legacy version net/skype12
|
|

|
AFFECTS: users of x11-wm/enlightenment-devel, x11/ecore and grephics/evas
|
|
AUTHOR: stas@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
Evas and ecore ports have been splitted to separate modules to simplify
|
|
dependency tracking. Thus, portupgrade in many cases won't be able to
|
|
correctly update these ports.
|
|
|
|
The easiest upgrade path would be to remove all EFL ports and install
|
|
them from scratch. At least, you should reinstall ecore and evas.
|
|
|
|
Please note, that your old $HOME/.e is not longer compatible with new
|
|
snapshot version. You will need to remove this directory and let e17
|
|
to create it automatically on the next startup.

FreeRADIUS 2.0 is now available as the net/freeradius2 port. All FreeRADIUS
|
|
users are advised to consider upgrading to 2.0. It is the FreeRADIUS team's
|
|
intention to put the 1.x server into 'maintenance' mode with just critical
|
|
bug fixes.[1] 2.0 has many improvements including numerous bug fixes that were
|
|
too difficult for the 1.x server, as well as many new features.
|
|
|
|
Before uninstalling 1.x, it is recommended that you backup your
|
|
configuration, which is typically in /usr/local/etc/raddb, then move
|
|
it out of the way. It is also worth backing up the default configuration,
|
|
which is typically in /usr/local/share/examples/freeradius/raddb.
|
|
|
|
1.x configurations should work with the 2.0 server [2]. However the
|
|
port automatically upgrades any unedited files in the configuration when
|
|
you install a new version of FreeRADIUS. Installing 2.0 with the residue
|
|
of a 1.x configuration in the default location will result in a mixed 1.x and
|
|
2.0 configuration that may not work.
|
|
|
|
The recommended approach is to diff your 1.x configuration against the
|
|
default 1.x configuration, then make corresponding changes to a copy
|
|
of the default 2.0 configuration. If you moved your 1.x configuration out of
|
|
the way before upgrading, you will have a 2.0 configuration ready to edit in
|
|
the default location. It is worth reading man 5 unlang for details of
|
|
the new FreeRADIUS 'un-language' before starting.
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, you can move your 1.x configuration to another location, such
|
|
as /usr/local/etc/raddb_v1, then edit /etc/rc.conf to point the rc.d script
|
|
to that location. For example:
|
|
|
|
radiusd_flags="-d /usr/local/etc/raddb_v1"
|
|
|
|
I cannot guarantee that all 1.x configurations will work with the 2.0
|
|
server,and I only recommend using a 1.x configuration as an interim measure.

From 0.8.7a version database settings has moved to config.php file.
|
|
You have to copy your setting from db-settings.php to config.php and
|
|
remove db-settings.php file after updating.
|
|
|
|
Plugin support is dropped again and will not revive anymore in the port.
|
|
A reason for that is the patch is unofficial and there are long time lags
|
|
between a new cacti version released and time when the patch is adapted.

AFFECTS: users of www/suphp
|
|
AUTHOR: koitsu@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
The suPHP port has been upgraded to 0.6.2. This update requires
|
|
modifications to your Apache httpd.conf, as the new version of suPHP does
|
|
things differently than the previous version -- particularly in regards
|
|
to how AddHandler is used.
|
|
|
|
Previously, enabling suPHP was as simple as:
|
|
|
|
suPHP_Engine on
|
|
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
|
|
AddHandler x-httpd-php .php
|
|
|
|
With suPHP 0.6.2, these should be changed to:
|
|
|
|
suPHP_Engine on
|
|
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
|
|
suPHP_AddHandler application/x-httpd-php
|
|
|
|
If you forget this change, your PHP content will likely be offered as
|
|
downloadable content and not parsed by the PHP interpreter!
|
|
|
|
Additionally, the new version uses a configuration file vs. compile-time
|
|
settings. The configuration file is /usr/local/etc/suphp.conf, and a
|
|
working example installed as /usr/local/etc/suphp.conf-example. It's
|
|
important that the MIME type under the [handlers] section matches what
|
|
the type passed to suPHP_AddHandler in your Apache configuration.

${LOCALBASE}/share/gnome/ to ${LOCALBASE}/share/).
|
|
This puts the FreeBSD GNOME ports more in line with the default
|
|
GNOME installation hierarchy. To find the specific directories that
|
|
have changed, see misc/gnomehier/files/dirlist. To upgrade your
|

sysutils/portmaster.

AUTHOR: roam@FreeBSD.org

|
|
The vpopmail port has been upgraded to version 5.4.20. There are several
|
|
important changes that may affect your vpopmail installation and may need
|
|
you to handle manually:
|
|
|
|
- THE MYSQL CONNECTION INFORMATION IS NO LONGER DEFINED AT COMPILE-TIME!
|
|
The WITH_MYSQL_{USER,PASSWD,SERVER,DB} variables should NOT be defined
|
|
when you build the port; place that information in the vpopmail.mysql
|
|
file after vpopmail has been installed!
|
|
- the default domain is also no longer defined at compile time - you need
|
|
to place it in the defaultdomain file after the installation.
|
|
- the defaultdomain and vpopmail.mysql files are no longer blindly removed
|
|
on deinstallation, they are only removed if they have not been modified
|
|
- in vpopmail 5.4.18, the database schema was changed - some fields were
|
|
extended from 64 to 96 characters. If you do not apply those changes
|
|
to your database, as explained in the vpopmail/doc/UPGRADE file, your
|
|
vpopmail installation may silently fail or lose the trailing portions
|
|
of domain names and usernames.
|
|
- in vpopmail 5.4.19, the upstream authors integrated large parts of
|
|
Alex Dupre's SpamAssassin support, without the SPAM_THRESHOLD part.
|
|
If you use vpopmail along with the SpamAssassin FreeBSD port support,
|
|
take extra care to ensure that your installation still processes
|
|
e-mail messages in the same way.
|
|
- vpopmail 5.4.19 added support for maildrop as a mail delivery agent.
|
|
This is available in the FreeBSD port if WITH_MAILDROP is defined.
|
|
There is also a new user-limit flag for maildrop delivery.
|
|
- vpopmail 5.4.19 added support for MySQL connections via Unix sockets
|
|
instead of TCP sockets to the server. To do that, change the second
|
|
value (the port number) in vpopmail.mysql to the full pathname of
|
|
the MySQL socket (e.g. /tmp/mysql.sock).
|
|
- vpopmail 5.4.20 extended the LDAP support; please see README.ldap for
|
|
more information, and specify the LDAP connection information in
|
|
the vpopmail/etc/vpopmail.ldap file after the installation.

|

AUTHOR: lippe@freebsdbrasil.com.br
|
|
|
|
qmail-scanner was updated to 2.x, and 1.x version was repocopied to
|
|
mail/qmail-scanner1. There are some differences between these 2 versions:
|
|
|
|
quarantine-attachments.txt has been renamed to quarantine-events.txt, it is
|
|
used to quarantine more than just attachments, and the format of that file
|
|
has been changed.
|
|
|
|
Quarantine directory is now separated into THREE subdirs: "spam", "viruses"
|
|
and "policy". This is so sites can arrange different auto-delete jobs to
|
|
control the size of these areas if they so wish.
|
|
|
|
Some features that were hard-wired into the main body of Q-S have been moved
|
|
into quarantine-events.txt where they should have been all along. This makes
|
|
it possible to change settings without reconfiguring the main body of qmail-
|
|
scanner-queue.pl. You will need to rewrite any rules you had in place within
|
|
the old quarantine-attachments.txt into the new format quarantine-events.txt
|
|
|
|
Changed setuid to 6755 - i.e. it's now setuid and setgid. Forcing all files
|
|
to be group qscand will allow those who wish to do so to keep their AV
|
|
daemons running as other accounts. They just need to ensure those daemons are
|
|
members of the qscand group - and as such should be able to read the
|
|
necessary files. E.g. clamd could run as "clamav", but as long as account
|
|
"clamav" is a member of group "qscand", clamd is able to read the mail enough
|
|
to scan it.

AUTHOR: marcus@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
Because sound support was added to finch 2.1.1, the sound files used by
|
|
pidgin have been moved from the pidgin port to the libpurple port. This
|
|
makes updating a bit tricky. To properly update to pidgin 2.1.1 and retain
|
|
sounds, you must first upgrade libpurple and pidgin as you normally would,
|
|
then force a rebuild of libpurple. For example, using portupgrade:
|
|
|
|
# portupgrade net-im/libpurple net-im/pidgin
|
|
# portupgrade -f net-im/libpurple

AFFECTS: users of DESTDIR
|
|
AUTHOR: gabor@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
DESTDIR is a feature, that allows installation of ports into separate
|
|
environments, like jails. The previous implementation, introduced in the
|
|
August 2006, had some problems and was very expensive to maintain. It was
|
|
completely rolled back, and replaced with a brand new implementation utilizing
|
|
chroot.
|
|
|
|
When DESTDIR is set, the system will chroot into the specified directory,
|
|
mount devfs, null mount the ports tree, then proceed with building and
|
|
installing. Your kernel must support nullfs (is available as loadable kernel
|
|
module on default installation). The target environment must be a full
|
|
FreeBSD installation. For advanced use, read comments at the beginning of
|
|
bsd.destdir.mk.

AUTHOR: python@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
The default version of Python has been changed from 2.4.x to 2.5.x.
|
|
If you have 2.4.x installed, perform an upgrade of lang/python24 to
|
|
lang/python25 with a command like:
|
|
|
|
# portupgrade -o lang/python25 lang/python24
|
|
|
|
If you want to keep 2.4.x installed alongside 2.5.x, set the
|
|
PYTHON_DEFAULT_VERSION variable to 'python2.5' without quotes in make.conf,
|
|
then go to lang/python and execute
|
|
|
|
# portupgrade -R python
|
|
|
|
Once the installed Python has been updated to 2.5, by using one of the
|
|
methods above, it is required to run the upgrade-site-packages target in
|
|
lang/python to assure that site-packages are made available to the new Python
|
|
version.
|
|
|
|
# cd /usr/ports/lang/python && make upgrade-site-packages
|
|
|

|
AUTHOR: ade@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|

Extensive reworking of the autotools ports has occurred, putting them in
|
|
the canonical locations, along with a suitable wrapper port to make
|
|
developing autotools-using code (as opposed to just building ports)
|
|
considerably easier.
|
|
|
|
Upgrade path is as follows for portupgrade, substitute the appropriate
|
|
commands if you are using portmaster:
|
|
|
|
1. portupgrade -f 'autoconf*' 'automake*'
|
|
2. cd /usr/ports/devel/autotools; make install
|
|
3. portupgrade -a
|
|

|
The second step is optional, but is recommended to bring in all versions
|
|
of autoconf and automake.

ATTENTION! Besides security fixes this version of Samba3

significantly changes a lot of options and behavior of Samba.
|

Please, read WHATSNEW.txt and other port documentation before
|

upgrading production systems.
|
|
|
|
Off-line Logons and AD Site Support
|
|
===================================
|
|
|
|
Winbind's capability to support offline logons has been greatly
|
|
improved with the 3.0.25 release including support for locating
|
|
domain controllers asynchronously using Active Directory Site
|
|
information.
|
|
|
|
|
|
New IdMap Interface for Winbindd
|
|
================================
|
|
|
|
The 3.0.25 release of Samba includes a rewritten IdMap interface
|
|
for winbindd which replaces the "idmap backend" parameter. Please
|
|
refer to the "idmap domains" description in the smb.conf(5) man
|
|
page for more details.
|
|
|
|
Dynamic DNS Updates
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
The "net ads join" command is now able to register the host's DNS
|
|
A records with Windows 2000 SP4 and 2003 DNS servers. This feature
|
|
must be enabled at compile time using the --with-dnsupdate when
|
|
running the ./configure script. There is also a related "net ads
|
|
dns" command for refreshing a host's records which could be launched
|
|
from a dhcp client script when a new IP address is obtained.
|
|
|
|
Support for Additional ACL Modules
|
|
==================================
|
|
|
|
Samba's POSIX ACL support has been moved inside of the VFS layer
|
|
which means it is now possible to support multiple ACL
|
|
implementations on the same server including NFSv4 and GPFS ACLs.
|
|
|
|
VFS ReadAhead Plugin
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
Windows Vista introduces pipe-lined read support for improved
|
|
performance when transferring files. The new vfs_readahead plugin
|
|
allows Linux file servers to utilize additional Kernel buffers for
|
|
caching files in order to avoid Disk I/O wait time when serving
|
|
Vista clients. If you experience poor read performance between
|
|
Linux servers and Vista clients, please test the vfs_readahead
|
|
module by adding the following lines to the share definition in
|
|
smb.conf:
|
|
|
|
[file_share]
|
|
vfs objects = readahead
|
|
|
|
Note that this plugin will result in additional RAM requirements
|
|
due to the increased amount of kernel buffer caches used by smbd.
|
|
Please refer to vfs_readahead(8) for more information.
|
|
|
|
Windows Vista, Office 2007, and Offline Files
|
|
=============================================
|
|
|
|
Research surrounding offline files, Windows Vista, and Microsoft
|
|
Office 2007 has revealed a incompatibility between these
|
|
applications and the "map acl inherit = no" setting in smb.conf.
|
|
Users requiring support client side caching (csc) and offline
|
|
files are encouraged to enable the "map acl inherit" for any
|
|
affected share definitions in the server's configuration.
|
|
Future versions of Samba will enable this setting by default.
|
|
|
|
Please refer to the smb.conf(5) man page for more details on
|
|
"map acl inherit".

AFFECTS: users of Xorg
|
|
AUTHOR: kris@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
Welcome, fearless user! You are about to embark upon a mystical
|
|
journey to the world of xorg 7.2.
|
|
|
|
This upgrade procedure is for users of portupgrade. Users of other
|
|
upgrade tools should contact the author for the corresponding upgrade
|
|
method for that tool.
|
|
|
|
It is recommended that you run the xorg 7.2 upgrade inside a script(1)
|
|
session. This way, if something goes wrong, you will have hopefully
|
|
saved enough information for the developers to debug the problem.
|
|
Make sure you choose a filesystem with lots of space for the script
|
|
output.
|
|
|
|
# script xorg-upgrade
|
|
|
|
You may wish to set BATCH=yes in the environment to avoid interactive
|
|
dialogue boxes.
|
|
|
|
You may want to consider using portupgrade-devel, which fixes some
|
|
annoying bugs that cause upgrades to incorrectly be marked as failed
|
|
when they actually completed successfully. To switch to
|
|
portupgrade-devel:
|
|
|
|
# portupgrade -f -o ports-mgmt/portupgrade-devel portupgrade
|
|
# rm -f /usr/ports/INDEX*.db /var/db/pkg/pkgdb.db
|
|
# pkgdb -fu
|
|
|
|
If you have changed your ports environment in /etc/make.conf,
|
|
/usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf or similar you need to rebuild INDEX:
|
|
|
|
# cd /usr/ports && make index
|
|
|
|
If you have not changed your ports environment you can save some
|
|
time and just fetch the latest INDEX:
|
|
|
|
# cd /usr/ports && make fetchindex
|
|
|
|
It is necessary to set the XORG_UPGRADE environment variable while
|
|
updating from xorg 6.9 to 7.2. Once the upgrade is complete this
|
|
is no longer be required.
|
|
|
|
For users of csh-like shells:
|
|
# setenv XORG_UPGRADE yes
|
|
|
|
For users of sh-like shells:
|
|
# export XORG_UPGRADE=yes
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately portupgrade (nor portupgrade-devel) cannot yet handle
|
|
the rigors of the xorg upgrade without a small bit of help:
|
|
|
|
# portupgrade -Rf libXft
|
|
|
|
If your machine does NOT have any gstreamer ports installed, you can then
|
|
run:
|
|
|
|
# portupgrade -a
|
|
|
|
However, if you DO have gstreamer ports installed, you must run:
|
|
|
|
# portupgrade -a -x 'gstreamer*'
|
|
|
|
Followed by:
|
|
|
|
# portupgrade -Rr 'gstreamer*'
|
|
|
|
When packages are available (wait for the announcement on ports@), you
|
|
may prefer to use precompiled packages to speed up the process:
|
|
|
|
# portupgrade -aP
|
|
|
|
Once the upgrade completes successfully, you can delete the
|
|
xorg-manpages package, which is now orphaned.
|
|
|
|
# pkg_delete xorg-manpages\*
|
|
|
|
The final step is to merge remaining files from /usr/X11R6 into
|
|
/usr/local (/usr/X11R6 is no longer used with xorg 7.2) and replace
|
|
/usr/X11R6 with a symlink.
|
|
|
|
A script is provided for your convenience (or you may choose to do
|
|
this by hand): it will first attempt to back up your /usr/X11R6 into
|
|
/usr/tmp/mergebase in case something goes wrong, then look for
|
|
conflicts (files in /usr/X11R6 that would overwrite files in
|
|
/usr/local). Depending on your system configuration you may have to
|
|
resolve some of these conflicts by hand first (if in doubt, ask for
|
|
help on freebsd-x11@FreeBSD.org). You may also need to edit the
|
|
script if the default locations are not correct on your system.
|
|
|
|
If your /usr/X11R6 is a file system, you will also need to modify the
|
|
script to pause after /usr/X11R6 is backed up, but before the symlink is
|
|
created.
|
|
|
|
# sh /usr/ports/Tools/scripts/mergebase.sh
|
|
|
|
When the merge operation completes successfully, the /usr/X11R6
|
|
directory hierarchy will be removed and replaced by a symlink to
|
|
/usr/local. This symlink is necessary because some binary ports (and
|
|
some remaining source ports) have hard-coded references to /usr/X11R6.
|
|
|
|
Congratulations, you are done!
|
|

CAVEATS
|
|
|
|
Make sure you have the x11/xorg meta-port installed. If you do not have
|
|
this meta-port installed with X.Org 6.9, you will miss out on a lot of
|
|
the new X.Org 7.2 sub-ports.
|
|
|
|
If you plan on keeping your current /etc/X11/xorg.conf, make sure you
|
|
change ModulePath to /usr/local/lib/xorg/modules prior to running X.
|
|
|
|
If you run into problems running the new X server, try moving aside
|
|
your /etc/X11/xorg.conf and allow X to run with default values. After
|
|
that you can see the default values in a log file (e.g. /var/log/Xorg.0.log)
|
|
and fix your xorg.conf according to the defaults.
|
|
|
|
IF YOU RUN INTO PROBLEMS:
|
|
|
|
# uname -a
|
|
# ls -l /var/db/pkg
|
|
# exit
|
|
|
|
and send an email to freebsd-x11@FreeBSD.org with a full description
|
|
of the problem. Do not include the above typescript in your email,
|
|
but bzip2 it and make it available to the developers (e.g. put it
|
|
online or send it by private email upon request).

The gimp[-devel] port is now a meta-port so users will need to upgrade via
|

one of the following examples. Gimp now depends on gutenprint instead of
|

gimp-print, if you have gimp-print installed you will need to
|
|
pkg_delete gimp-print before you install or upgrade the gimp.

AUTHOR: bsam@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
ATTENTION! The port is experimental for now. Use it at your own risk. This
|
|
port may be used only with 7-CURRENT and compat.linux.osrelease=2.6.16.
|
|
|
|
To use/test the port (along with linux FC4 infrastructure ports) you
|
|
should do:
|
|
|
|
0. Backup all your vital information!
|
|
1. Remove the current linux base port.
|
|
2. Add to your /etc/make.conf "OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT=fc6".
|
|
3. Make sure no linux application is running.
|
|
4. Set appropriate sysctl (compat.linux.osrelease=2.6.16).
|
|
5. Install emulation/linux_base-fc6.
|
|
5a. Those who use linux ports with automatic plist building should
|
|
apply the following patch:
|
|
ftp://mail.ipt.ru/pub/FreeBSD/patches/bsd.linux-rpm.mk-autoplist.diff
|
|
|
|
That should be enough at most circumstances. If you have difficulties,
|
|
please be sure to expand item 1 to:
|
|
|
|
1a. Remove all ports which depends on linux base port.
|
|
1b. Remove linux base port.
|
|
1c. Clean /compat/linux/ directory.
|
|
|
|
In case you want to get rid of the port, deinstall it, then return
|
|
back compat.linux.osrelease to 2.4.2 (as usual make sure that no
|
|
linux application is running) and remove from /etc/make.conf the line
|
|
containing the OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT variable.

AUTHOR: mezz@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
The x11-wm/fluxbox-devel has been merged into x11-wm/fluxbox. You should
|
|
be back up your ~/.fluxbox and remove it. If you still want to keep to
|
|
use the same ~/.fluxbox, then you will have to do this:
|
|
|
|
- The prefix has been changed from X11BASE (/usr/X11R6) to
|
|
LOCALBASE (/usr/local). You might have to edit a few of paths in
|
|
the ~/.fluxbox/* if there is any.
|
|
- The bsetroot has been renamed to fbsetroot. You might have to
|
|
tweak a few of theme for bsetroot -> fbsetroot. Other way can be
|
|
done is to install the x11-wm/boxtools that has bsetroot if you
|
|
don't want to edit any theme.
|
|
|
|
While I am here, don't forget to use 'pkgdb -Ff'. As for the portmaster
|
|
users, I don't think you will need to do anything since portmaster will
|
|
taking care of it by default.

AFFECTS: users of devel/gettext (ie: YOU)
|
|
AUTHOR: ade@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
As a result of the upgrade to gettext-0.16.1, the shared library version
|
|
of libintl has changed, so you will need to rebuild all ports that
|
|
depend on gettext (ie: most of them, sorry):
|
|
|
|
portupgrade -rf gettext
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
portmaster -r gettext
|
|
|
|
In addition, if you have multimedia/vlc installed, you should deinstall
|
|
it *before* either of the above commands, and reinstall it manually
|
|
afterwards - vlc erroneously installs its own version of lib/charset.alias
|
|
which will overwrite the one supplied by devel/gettext otherwise.

The py-libdnet port has been separated out as a slave port to libdnet and

is now dependent on libdnet. py-libdnet now only installs the libdnet

AFFECTS: users of ports-mgmt/portupgrade*
|
|
AUTHOR: sem@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
Because of a bug in previous version, it's recommended you fill ALT_PKGDEP
|
|
section in pkgtools.conf file for portupgrade be aware of alternative
|
|
dependencies you use, and run pkgdb -L to restore dependencies that was
|
|
lost.
|
|
|
|
Example of ALT_PKGDEP section:
|
|
ALT_PKGDEP = {
|
|
'www/apache13' => 'www/apache13-modssl',
|
|
'print/ghostscript-afpl' => 'print/ghostscript-gnu',
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Note also, portupgrade knows nothing how to handle ports with different
|
|
suffixes (E.g. -nox11). So you should define explicitly variables
|
|
(E.g. WITHOUT_X11=yes) for the ports in /etc/make.conf or pkgtools.conf
|
|
(MAKE_ARGS section) files.

|
|
AUTHOR: stefan@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
With the update to version 1.4d, the SpamProbe port doesn't use the OPTIONS
|
|
framework any more to allow part of the changes below. That means that options
|
|
selected for this port won't be saved/used automatically any more and you have
|
|
to set the appropriate variables in /etc/make.conf or on the command line to
|
|
change the port's behaviour; the variables are documented at the top of the
|
|
port's Makefile. Before updating, it might be a good idea to remove
|
|
/var/db/ports/spamprobe.
|
|
|
|
The port now has support for the PBL database backend; unless built with
|
|
WITHOUT_PBL set, SpamProbe will use PBL as the default even if you have an
|
|
existing BerkleyDB or hash database; in that case, use the parameter "-d" to
|
|
specify the type of the existing database on the command line, e.g.
|
|
|
|
spamprobe -d bdb:$HOME/.spamprobe receive
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
spamprobe -d hash:$HOME/.spamprobe receive
|
|
|
|
Using PBL instead of BerkleyDB might be a good idea, though, as the former
|
|
seems to perform better. You can convert your existing database to PBL using
|
|
the following commands (assuming you didn't disable PBL support):
|
|
|
|
cd ~
|
|
mkdir spamprobe.new

Libwhisker 2.0 is *not* backwards-compatible with Libwhisker 1.x.
|
|
Changing 'use LW' to 'use LW2' in your programs is not enough--you may
|
|
need to make code changes to your program.
|
|
|
|
However, there is a 'bridge' LW.pm module in which will use LW2
|
|
(libwhisker 2.x) functions to emulate the LW (libwhisker 1.x)
|
|
functionality.

the fileview in konqueror to see the files.
|
|
|
|
- Mounting floppies is currently not supported.
|
|
|
|
You can still mount them in KDE if ...
|
|
|
|
- You have an fstab entry for your floppy pointing to a mountpoint
|
|
owned by your user (i.e. somewhere in your homedir)
|
|
- The vfs.usermount sysctl is set to 1
|
|
|
|
... by creating a floppy device icon on your KDE desktop and selecting
|
|
the above-mentioned fstab entry in the device dropdown list on the
|
|
device tab.

AUTHOR: David Wood <david@wood2.org.uk>

FreeBSD used to patch FreeRADIUS's rlm_mschap.c to strip all domain names
|
|
when calculating the hash of an MS-CHAP challenge (a requirement specified
|
|
in RFC 2759 paragraph 4 and amplified in paragraph 8.2). FreeRADIUS now
|
|
offers its own solution to discard a domain name before hashing in the
|
|
MS-CHAP code, which can be enabled via a configuration option. As there is
|
|
no longer any need for the FreeBSD patch, it has been removed, leaving the
|
|
MS-CHAP code behaving as supplied by the FreeRADIUS team.
|
|
|
|
If the previous behaviour of the MS-CHAP code is required, add:
|
|
|
|
with_ntdomain_hack = yes
|
|
|
|
to the mschap { } section of your FreeRADIUS configuration. There should be
|
|
a commented out line that can be modified around line 696 of
|
|
${PREFIX}/etc/raddb/radiusd.conf if your configuration is based on the
|
|
sample FreeRADIUS configuration.
|
|
|
|
This option is not set by default in the sample FreeRADIUS configuration.
|
|
Only those who have clients sending a domain name as part of the user name
|
|
when using MS-CHAP will be affected by this change; they will need to set
|
|
this option to allow FreeRADIUS to authenticate their clients successfully.
|
|
This may only affect those with older Windows clients, but I cannot be sure.
|
|
|
|
Some sources suggest setting this configuration option anyway to prevent
|
|
FreeRADIUS from breaching RFC 2759 inadvertently, leading to authentication
|
|
failure. It is left to the user whether to set this configuration option
|
|
anyway, or only to set it in the event of authentication failures stemming
|
|
from MS-CHAP.
|
|
|
|
Debug output from radiusd that reads "rlm_mschap: NT Domain delimeter found,
|
|
should we have enabled with_ntdomain_hack?" suggests that this configuration
|
|
option should be enabled.

The old avr-gcc port has been renamed into avr-gcc-3, and continues

support for GCC 3.x (for a while).

The former avr-gcc-devel port has been moved into avr-gcc, so GCC

4.x is now the default.
|
|

There is an entry in MOVED for the latter change but not for the

former one, as the automated tools (e.g. portupgrade) got confused

otherwise.

If you've previously been using avr-gcc-devel, these tools should

the installed package to avr-gcc.

If you've previously been using avr-gcc, and want to move on to the
|

new default GCC 4.x, this should be fully automatic, as the port

name just stays, and the version increases.

Revision of Samba 3.0.23c port had changed location of the directory,
|
|
where Samba stores it's smbpasswd files from $PREFIX/private to a more
|
|
common $PREFIX/etc/samba.
|
|
|
|
You need to move *.tdb files from an old to new location and remove old
|
|
directory if you use tdbsam backend for Samba user authentication.
|
|
|
|
Starting with the 3.0.23c release, the officially supported passdb
|
|
backends (smbpasswd, tdbsam, and ldapsam) now operate identically with
|
|
regards to the historical RID algorithm for unmapped users and groups
|
|
(i.e. accounts not in the passdb or group mapping table). The resulting
|
|
behavior is that all unmapped users are resolved to a SID in the
|
|
S-1-22-1 domain and all unmapped groups resolve to a SID in the S-1-22-2
|
|
domain. Previously, when using the smbpasswd passdb, such users and
|
|
groups would resolve to an algorithmic SID in the machine's own domain
|
|
(S-1-5-XX-XX-XX). However, the smbpasswd backend still utilizes the RID
|
|
algorithm when creating new user accounts or allocating a RID for a new
|
|
group mapping entry.
|
|
|
|
With the changes in the 3.0.23c release, it is now possible to resolve

Since Samba 3.0.8, it has been recommended that all domain accounts
|
|
listed in smb.conf on a member server be fully qualified with the
|
|
domain name. This is now a requirement. All unqualified names are
|
|
assumed to be local to the Unix host, either as part of the server's
|
|
local passdb or in the local system list of accounts (e.g. /etc/passwd
|
|
or /etc/group).
|
|
|
|
If the member server is not running winbindd at all, domain
|
|
accounts will be implicitly mapped to local accounts and their
|
|
tokens will be modified appropriately to reflect the local
|
|
SID and group membership.

|
|
|
|
Because portupgrade had a problem with detecting Berkley DB version 2
|
|
or newer, and the default database format is now set to use these
|
|
versions, you can end up with a portupgrade that does not work with
|
|
older databases. A quick fix is to remove the databases, type:
|
|
'rm /var/db/pkg/pkgdb.db /usr/ports/INDEX*.db'.
|
|
portupgrade will recreate them automatically. It does absolutely no harm.
|
|
|
|
If you do not want remove the databases, you should detect what database
|
|
type do you use, and set the port options for portupgrade accordingly.
|
|
Follow these instructions:
|
|
|
|
- run 'pkgdb -fu' *before* upgrading and take a look on the output.
|
|
You can see database format there as: format:XXX, where XXX is your
|
|
current database format.
|
|
- Go to portupgrade port directory and configure the port with
|
|
`make config' command. If you have bdb_* format, then turn on the BDB4
|
|
option. If you have bdb1_* format, then turn off BDB4 and turn on
|
|
the BDB1 option. If you have dbd_hash format, then turn off all options.
|
|
- Upgrade portupgrade.
|
|
|
|
Note: if you change database format with changing port options,
|
|
you should remove the ruby-bdb* port that you don't need anymore.
|
|
Alternatively, you can hard code database format in your pkgtools.conf.

After this start a linux program to test, e.g., acroread. If you get

|
new storage methods. The following is a copy of the relevant information,
|
|
tailored for FreeBSD port users:
|
|
|
|
1. cd /usr/ports/www/instiki; make extract
|
|
2. Execute
|
|
ruby work/instiki-0.11.0/script/import_storage \
|
|
-t /usr/local/instiki/storage/2500 \
|
|
-i /usr/local/instiki \
|
|
-d sqlite \
|
|
-o [some location]/instiki_import.sql
|
|
3. This will produce instiki_import.sql file in the specified location.
|
|
Open it in a text editor and inspect carefully.
|
|
4. Upgrade your instiki port normally (eg portupgrade)
|
|
5. Connect to your production database, eg:
|
|
sqlite3 /usr/local/instiki/db/production.db.sqlite3
|
|
and have it execute instiki_import.sql, eg:
|
|
.read [some location]/instiki_import.sql
|
|
6. Execute
|
|
ruby /usr/local/instiki/script/reset_references production

Most of the ports that depend on Berkeley DB have been updated to use
|
|
Mk/bsd.database.mk. Mk/bsd.database.mk is used to include MySQL, PostgreSQL,
|
|
Berkeley DB, and SQLite in a port.
|
|
|
|
The Berkeley DB support in Mk/bsd.database.mk is used to return the proper
|
|
db* library name and location of the include and library directories of the
|
|
requested version.
|
|
|
|
To select a version of Berkeley DB, you can use either WITH_BDB_VER=<version>
|
|
or ${UNIQUENAME}_WITH_BDB_VER=<version> (version is one of 3, 40, 41, 42, 43,
|
|
or 44).
|
|
|
|
When a port has USE_BDB defined as either 'USE_BDB=41+' or 'USE_BDB=yes', the
|
|
port will use the oldest installed version of Berkeley DB. For example if
|
|
both db41 and db43 are installed, the port would end up compiling with db41.
|
|
If you add -DWITH_BDB_HIGHEST to your make command, the port will use highest
|
|
db* instead. If no Berkeley DB is installed then the port will default to the
|
|
version specified or the default Berkeley DB version (currently db41).
|
|
|
|
NOTE: If a port was using a different variable to select Berkeley DB or a
|
|
version, you will get an IGNORE message when you build the port. This
|
|
message will tell you what you need to do.
|
|
|
|
Port Maintainers please review the comments in Mk/bsd.database.mk on what
|
|
variables are available for you use in your own ports.

Since EMBOSS-3.0.0 both EMBOSS and EMBASSY install by default into

Users upgrading to 3.0.0 should take this into consideration when

Unfortunately, it turns out that printing feature of Adobe
|

Reader 7.0.5 does not work with FreeBSD's Linux emulation
|
|
environment for now. Although English, French, German,
|
|
Japanese, and Korean version of the port were updated to
|
|
7.0.5 on 2006/02/21, these changes have been reverted consequently.
|
|

|
Please update the packages installed (normal upgrading procedure
|
|
by using portupgrade(1) and so on should work). I am sorry for the
|
|
confusion.

|
Port versions older than 0.7 and 0.11a respectively run as root which
|
|
is an unneeded security risk. Newer versions run as as user jabber,

|
AFFECTS: all ports using libtool as part of the build process
|
|
AUTHOR: ade@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
The way in which ports that require libtool to build has been
|
|
completely reworked to bring the ports system in line with other
|
|
environments, such as Linux, and pkgsrc.
|
|
|
|
devel/libtool13 no longer exists. devel/libtool15 has been modified
|
|
to (a) install in the canonical locations and (b) remove a number
|
|
of long-standing FreeBSD-specific patches that resulted in a very
|
|
different libtool than is present on other systems.
|
|
|
|
The main visible change will be that a large number of ports have
|
|
had their plists modified (we now install libtool .la archives)
|
|
and, as such, PORTREVISIONS have been bumped on ~2000 ports (roughly
|
|
1/7th of the tree).
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately, there is no simple upgrade path. Short of removing
|
|
all packages and reinstalling from scratch, the only other viable
|
|
alternative would be careful use of portupgrade. Given the large
|
|
number of different ways in which libtool is used by other ports
|
|
in the tree, this is a process that is likely to vary considerably
|
|
from system to system, and as such, folks should be very mindful
|
|
of running automatic updating software, such as portupgrade, making
|
|
extensive use of the -n flag (and equivalents for other updaters)
|
|
to see what will actually be rebuilt, before actually performing
|
|
the upgrade.
|
|
|
|
The good news is that the system now in place will make the handling
|
|
of libtool-using ports considerably easier going forward.

AUTHOR: hrs@FreeBSD.org

|
|
|
installation directory of print/acroread7 and the slave ports
|
|
have been changed to ${PREFIX}/Adobe/Acrobat7.0/${ADOBE_LANG}.
|
|
${ADOBE_LANG} is one of CHS,CHT,DAN,DEU,ENU,ESP,FRA,ITA,JPN,KOR,
|
|
NLD,NOR,PTB,SUO,SVE and represents language used in the UI (FRA means
|
|
French version and it is installed by french/acroread, for example).
|
|
To configure the UI language, navigate to Edit->Preferences->International->
|
|
Application Language, set it to "Choose at application startup" and
|
|
restart the program.
|
|
|
|
The command filename is ${PREFIX}/bin/acroread as before (this is
|
|
a script installed by print/acroreadwrapper now), and if multiple
|
|
versions are installed, one of them will be selected according to
|
|
${ADOBE_LANG} environment variable. If ${ADOBE_LANG} is not set,
|
|
it will be automatically set by using ${LANG}; this means when
|
|
LANG=fr_FR.ISO8859-15, ADOBE_LANG will be FRA and the French version
|
|
will be invoked by ${PREFIX}/bin/acroread. You can set ADOBE_LANG
|
|
manually, too.
|
|
|
|
Also, if you want to activate the PDF plugin, use --install-plugin
|

option in ${PREFIX}/bin/acroread. For more detail, see

|
|
AUTHOR: kde@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
A number of files have been moved from kdebase to kdelibs between
|
|
KDE 3.4.3 and KDE 3.5.0 and some applications which used to be
|
|
distributed separately from KDE have been included in the release.
|
|
|
|
This means that you will have to take some precautions in order to
|
|
update your KDE installation without interruptions.
|
|
|
|
We recommend sticking to the following procedure. This procedure requires you
|
|
to have sysutils/portupgrade installed and to be the superuser (or using
|
|
sudo).
|
|
|
|
1.) Delete installed packages which conflict with the updated KDE
|
|
ports.
|
|
|
|
pkg_deinstall -f kdebase-\[0-9\]\* superkaramba-\[0-9\]\* \
|
|
kde-windeco-smoothblend-\[0-9]\* kvirc-\[0-9\]\* \
|
|
kdeaddons-vimpart-\[0-9\]\*
|
|
|
|
2.) Now update the remaining KDE ports.
|
|
|
|
portupgrade -O arts\* kde\* \*kde-i18n\*
|
|
|
|
or, if you want to update KDE along with other updated ports:
|
|
|
|
portupgrade -a
|
|
|
|
3.) Reinstall the KDE ports you deleted in step 1.
|
|
|
|
portinstall -O kdebase
|
|
|
|
Superkaramba is now included in misc/kdeutils3.
|
|
|
|
The smoothblend window decoration is now included in x11-themes/kdeartwork3.
|
|
|
|
Vimpart is being discontinued and no longer part of KDE.
|
|
|
|
KNOWN ISSUES:
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
Just like KDE 3.4, KDE 3.5 does not play nice with openssl-0.9.8. In
|
|
particular it breaks kwallet, some of the SSL handling in konqueror and
|
|
SSL/TLS support in kmail/kontact.
|
|
|
|
If you're using the openssl ports rather than the base-system openssl,
|
|
make sure to use security/openssl-stable.
|
|
|
|
You can put WITH_OPENSSL_STABLE=yes into /etc/make.conf to automatically
|
|
make ports depend on that rather than on security/openssl.
|
|
|
|
FreeBSD 4.x users MUST install openssl-stable even if the base openssl is
|
|
present for SSL/TLS support in kmail/kontact to work. Unfortunately, the
|
|
kdepim3 port cannot depend on it automatically due to shortcomings/bugs in
|
|
ports-collection's openssl infrastructure.

Fetchmail now checks the validity of server certificates and complains
|
|
verbosely in maillog if the validation fails.
|
|
|
|
If your mail server's certificate is not signed by one of the root
|
|
authorities, you have to manually configure them using the following steps:
|
|
|
|
* Download the necessary certificates in PEM format and store them
|
|
at a suitable location, e.g. /home/user/.certs
|
|
|
|
* Run the c_rehash tool on the freshly installed certificates:
|
|
|
|
- If you are using OpenSSL from the base system (this is the default)
|
|
use the following command:
|
|
% perl /usr/src/crypto/openssl/tools/c_rehash /home/user/.certs
|
|
|
|
- If you are using OpenSSL from security/openssl please use
|
|
% c_rehash /home/user/.certs
|
|
|
|
* Use the following options to enable SSL encryption in your .fetchmailrc
|
|
configuration file:
|
|
|
|
options ssl sslcertpath /home/user/.certs sslcertck
|
|
sslfingerprint '< fingerprint >'
|
|
< other options >

portupgrade -a

|
|
AUTHOR: kensmith@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
The shared library version number of all shared libraries built as
|
|
part of the baseline system has been incremented in both RELENG_6
|
|
and HEAD. The overall goal is to make handling of the compat library
|
|
infrastructure easier. Each new release branch will have different
|
|
version numbers for all of the shared libraries and the compat ports
|
|
can simply include all of the shared libraries from the previous
|
|
release.
|
|
|
|
If you update your system using normal cvsup/rebuild/reinstall
|
|
mechanisms the old versions of the libraries will still be on your
|
|
system so your old ports executables will continue to work.
|
|
But you definitely should plan on recompiling and reinstalling all
|
|
of your installed ports so they get relinked against the new libraries.
|
|
If you don't take this step as time goes on "normal" updates and
|
|
installs run the risk of having executables relying on both the new
|
|
and old versions of the libraries which would cause big problems.
|
|
|
|
It will take some time for the pre-built packages available on the
|
|
FTP mirror sites to be rebuilt against the new libraries. If you
|
|
want to update your ports using the pre-built packages watch the
|
|
mailing lists for when the rebuilt packages become available.

|
|
Makefile: WITH_LEGACY_GPU_SUPPORT. Starting with version 7667, NVidia has
|
|
dropped support for numerous "legacy" GPUs, while this option allows to go
|
|
with previous version of driver (this does not apply to older versions of
|
|
FreeBSD, since you have to use version 6113 of driver (if you did not yet
|
|
upgraded to FreeBSD 5.3 or later) which has support for those GPUs).
|
|
|
|
If you must use WITH_LEGACY_GPU_SUPPORT option, be sure to ``hold'' the
|
|
package by making appropriate entry in your pkgtools.conf, otherwise
|
|
portupgrade(1) will upgrade your port to latest NVidia release on the
|
|
next run, which is probably not what you want.
|
|
|
|
Refer to x11/nvidia-driver/Makefile for further details.

|
In KDE 3.4, a number of files were moved between ports, some ports
|
|
were added, one port has been removed and some applications formerly available
|
|
in their own ports were incorporated into KDE. This means that you will have
|
|
to take some precautions to update your KDE installation. A simple
|
|
portupgrade -a will not work.
|
|
|
|
Portupgrade -R kde can fail as well, depending on what parts of KDE you
|
|
have currently installed. We therefore recommend sticking to the following
|
|
procedure. The procedure requires you to have sysutils/portupgrade installed
|
|
and you to be the superuser (or using sudo). We recommend not being logged in
|
|
to a KDE session on the machine you're performing the upgrade on. If you
|
|
choose to perform the update while being logged in to KDE, expect erratic
|
|
behavior and crashes from applications launched until you log out and back
|
|
in.
|
|
|
|
1.) Delete installed packages which conflict with the updated KDE
|
|
ports.
|
|
|
|
pkg_deinstall -f kdeartwork-\[0-9\]\* kdebase-\[0-9\]\* \
|
|
kdebase-konqueror-nsplugins-\[0-9\]\* kdewebdev-\[0-9\]\* \
|
|
kde-\[0-9\]\* akregator\* phase\*
|
|
|
|
2.) Now update the remaining KDE ports.
|
|
|
|
portupgrade -O arts\* kde\* \*kde-i18n\*
|
|
|
|
or, if you want to update KDE along with other updated ports:
|
|
|
|
portupgrade -a
|
|
|
|
3.) Reinstall the KDE ports you deleted in step 1.
|
|
|
|
portinstall -O kdebase kdeartwork kdewebdev
|
|
|
|
Changes in detail:
|
|
|
|
- www/akregator is now included into deskutils/kdepim3.
|
|
- x11-themes/phase is now included in x11-themes/kdeartwork3.
|
|
- www/konqueror-nsplugins has been removed and is now integrated into
|
|
x11/kdebase3.
|
|
- Juk has been split out of multimedia/kdemultimedia3 and is now
|
|
available as audio/juk.
|
|
- Akode has been split out of multimedia/kdemultimedia3 and is now
|
|
available as audio/akode and audio/akode-plugins-*. Akode is also
|
|
a default dependency of multimedia/kdemultimedia3 now.
|
|
- audio/mpeglib_artsplug has been demoted to legacy status and is no
|
|
longer the default decoder backend for kdemultimedia3. It's also not
|
|
depended on by kdemultimedia3 by default anymore.
|
|
|
|
Known post-updating issues:
|
|
|
|
- If you're missing acoustic notifications (system sounds) after the update:
|
|
|
|
rm ~/.kde/share/config/knotifyrc
|
|
|
|
Then log out of KDE and back in again (also see
|
|
http://freebsd.kde.org/faq.php#q16).
|
|
|
|
- kdm users might get warnings from kdm about obsolete lines in kdmrc.
|
|
You can migrate your configuration while preserving your customizations
|
|
by running (as root or with sudo)
|
|
|
|
genkdmconf
|
|
|
|
Make sure to backup your old kdm configuration (usually found in
|
|
/usr/local/share/config/kdm) beforehand in case the merge produces an
|
|
invalid configuration. Especially note that kdm does not use the Xservers
|
|
file anymore. A genkdmconf run will merge its contents into kdmrc.

AUTHOR: hrs@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
print/teTeX-* are now based on teTeX 3.0. Although some
|
|
reliability fixes are also added, here are several common problems
|
|
which you might fall on.
|
|
|
|
1) $PREFIX/bin/pdftex is missing:
|
|
|
|
Probably your system has old files included teTeX 2.x which can
|
|
prevent the new version from working. Please remove the old
|
|
files first (see 20050206 in this file) and reinstall.
|
|
|
|
2) Some formats are still corrupted (for example, "Fatal format file error;
|
|
I'm stymied" is displayed) or not updated even after a clean install:
|
|
|
|
You might have old or corrupted *.fmt and/or *.map files
|
|
under /root/.texmf-* or $HOME/.texmf-* directories. Typically
|
|
these directories are generated when you invoke the updmap(1),
|
|
texconfig(1), or fmtutil(1) utility manually. However, for a period
|
|
after the first revision of the teTeX-base port erroneously used
|
|
fmtutil(1) to regenerate *.fmt files, you could have these directories
|
|
without your intent. In such a case, please remove these directories
|
|
and reinstall the ports (it is not needed to rebuild ports/packages).
|
|
Just for your information, $HOME/.texmf-config and $HOME/.texmf-var
|
|
can be used for your personal configuration.

each other. Since other ports which depend on x11-fonts/mkbold or

x11-fonts/mkitalic will be updated to depend on x11-fonts/mkbold-mkitalic,
|

you might get an error during upgrading such ports. In such a case,

Since upgrading from previous versions should be done at a time,

you may want to use the portupgrade utility or reinstall

The slippery pthread support for systems prior to 502102 has been
|
|
dropped and lang/ruby16_r and lang/ruby18_r ports have been removed,
|
|
since no one seems to appreciate the partially working solution.
|
|
|
|
Good news is that the pthread support of lang/ruby18 is now enabled
|
|
by default for newer systems, which means the ruby interpreter is
|
|
linked with libpthread. This will allow threaded extension
|
|
libraries to run and work properly on those systems.

lang/perl5 has been updated to 5.6.2, and lang/perl5.8 has been
|
|
updated to 5.8.6. you should update everything depending on perl, that
|
|
is:
|
|
|
|
* first, upgrade your perl installation (use either lang/perl5 or
|
|
lang/perl5.8, the latter being recommended);
|
|
* for FreeBSD 4.X, run "use.perl port", so that the system knows you
|
|
have 5.8.6 or 5.6.2; this step is not needed on FreeBSD 5.X and
|
|
FreeBSD -CURRENT;
|
|
* run some magic incantations to upgrade all ports depending on perl,
|
|
that is run something like :
|
|
portupgrade -f `(pkg_info -R perl-5\* |tail +4; \
|
|
find /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.[68].[1245] -type f -print0 \
|
|
| xargs -0 pkg_which -fv | sed -e '/: ?/d' -e 's/.*: //')|sort -u`

This is likely to fail for a few ports, you'll have to upgrade them

afterwards by hand.

Therefore, you need to update the configuration files for each

|
|
1) Backup configuration files
|
|
|
|
cp ~/.iip/isproxy.ini ~/.iip/isproxy.ini.backup
|
|
cp ~/.iip/node.ref ~/.iip/node.ref.backup

|
rm ~/.iip/isproxy.ini
|
|
rm ~/.iip/node.ref

3) Create new configuration. Fill information as requested. This

creates the updated isproxy.ini file
|
|
|

isproxy -C

Nautilus-cd-burner now requires cdrtools built with UTF-8 encoding

Since sysutils/cdrtools and sysutils/cdrtools-cjk conflict, you must

As of version 4.4.0_6, XFree86-4-Server now depends on
|
|
graphics/xfree86-dri. This is due to incompatibilities between
|
|
XFree86 and the new xorg 6.8.1 DRI.
|

Users of XFree86-4-Server are strongly encouraged to switch to
|
|
the xfree86-dri port as follows:
|
|
|
|
portupgrade -fo graphics/xfree86-dri graphics/dri

portsdb(1) is part of the portupgrade suite and is used to convert a ports

INDEX file to a binary INDEX.db database. By default, it uses the

libc-builtin berkeley db to do so, which has a buggy btree implementation.

If you see errors like "[BUG] Segmentation fault" while a portsdb update is

pkgtools.conf) to either bdb1_hash or dbm_hash.
|

This problem was fixed in 5.3-RELEASE, but users of 4.10-RELEASE and

AFFECTS: users of sysutils/portupgrade
|
|
AUTHOR: lofi@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
Due to the recent removal of INDEX and INDEX-5 from FreeBSD's CVS,
|
|
portupgrade with default configuration will run 'make index' if started
|
|
after cvsup'ing the ports-collection. This may take an undesirably long
|
|
time.
|
|
|
|
There are several ways to work around this, for example:
|
|
|
|
- Run 'make fetchindex' after cvsup'ing ports.
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
- Adjust the PORTS_INDEX variable in your environment or in
|
|
pkgtools.conf (see portupgrade(1) or the default pkgtools.conf) to
|
|
a different value than the default.
|
|
|
|
Also remember that 'make index' is only supported on _complete_
|
|
ports-trees. If you are currently refusing whole categories by means
|
|
of a cvsup refuse file, use 'make fetchindex' instead (or consider
|
|
keeping an extra machine/jail with a complete ports-tree around to
|
|
do INDEX builds on).

mpeg4ip has been updated and broken down into 2 separate ports:
|
|
mpeg4ip and mpeg4ip-libmp4v2. Furthermore, mpeg4ip now depends
|
|
on faad. Moreover, faad now depends on mpeg4ip-libmp4v2 rather
|
|
than on mpeg4ip which avoids a cyclic dependency (mpeg4ip depends
|
|
on faad which depends on mpeg4ip).
|
|
|
|
If any of the old ports are installed, mpeg4ip will not compile.
|
|
Therefore,
|
|
|
|
1) Remove old faad and mpeg4ip ports which conflict with new
|
|
mpeg4ip
|
|
|
|
pkg_delete -f /var/db/pkg/mpeg4ip*
|
|
pkg_delete -f /var/db/pkg/faad*

|
|

cd /usr/ports/multimedia/mpeg4ip-libmp4v2 && make install clean

|
|
|
|
javavmwrapper has been rewritten. It now creates symbolic links for
|
|
all executables of the Java VMs that have been registered with it.
|
|
These symbolic links may impact which version of Java you are using,
|
|
depending on your PATH, which may need to be adjusted.
|
|
|
|
For example, if your path is:
|
|
|
|
${LOCALBASE}/bin:${LOCALBASE}/jdk1.4.2/bin
|
|
|
|
then previously "java" would resolve to ${LOCALBASE}/jdk1.4.2/bin/java.
|
|
With the new javavmwrapper it will resolve to ${LOCALBASE}/bin/java.
|
|
Depending upon the Java VMs that are registered and various environment
|
|
variables, it may or may not be ${LOCALBASE}/jdk1.4.2/bin/java that is
|
|
run by javavmwrapper via the symbolic link ${LOCALBASE}/bin/java.

This should have no effect unless you are using FreeBSD 5.3-BETA7 or
|
|
higher, or if you are a -current user who upgraded after this date.
|
|
Assuming you did a from-source upgrade new versions of these libraries
|
|
will be created but the old versions will be left behind (for example
|
|
/lib/libm.so.2 will be the old one, /lib/libm.so.3 will be the new one).
|
|
Any ports or pre-built packages you have currently installed will
|
|
continue to use the old library, any ports you install after the upgrade
|
|
will begin to use the new library. You will need to have all your
|
|
ports recompiled before the old library goes away. To help with the
|
|
migration you could also use /etc/libmap.conf to map libm.so.2 to
|
|
libm.so.3.

www/squid now installs an rcNG script by default. This means you

need to explicitly enable squid by setting squid_enable=yes in

Please see the squid.sh script for further details.

AFFECTS: users of x11/kde3, x11/kdelibs3, x11/kdebase3
|
|
AUTHOR: kde@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
In KDE 3.3, a number of files were moved between ports and some ports
|
|
were removed. This means that you will have to take some precautions
|
|
to update your KDE installation. A simple portupgrade -a will not work.
|
|
portupgrade -R kde can fail as well, depending on what parts of KDE you
|
|
have currently installed. We therefore recommend sticking to the following
|
|
procedure. The procedure requires you to have sysutils/portupgrade installed
|
|
and you to be the superuser (or using sudo). We recommend not being logged in
|
|
to a KDE session on the machine you're performing the upgrade on. If you
|
|
choose to perform the update while being logged in to KDE, expect erratic
|
|
behavior and crashes from applications launched during the update.
|
|
|
|
1.) First, make sure your ports index is up to date.
|
|
|
|
cd /usr/ports && make index
|
|
|
|
or, if you're using the sysutils/portindex port
|
|
|
|
portindex
|
|
|
|
2.) Delete installed packages which conflict with the updated KDE
|
|
ports.
|
|
|
|
pkg_deinstall -f kdeaddons-kontact-plugins-\* \
|
|
kdeaddons-kaddressbook-plugins-\* kdepim-\* kdeutils-\* \
|
|
kdeaddons-\[0-9\]\* kde-\[0-9\]\*
|
|
|
|
kdegraphics now conflicts with the kolourpaint package and kdeedu now
|
|
conflicts with the kwordquiz package. If you have kwordquiz and/or
|
|
kolourpaint installed on your system and you want to use the kdegraphics/
|
|
kdeedu ports, you should first deinstall the conflicting packages:
|
|
|
|
pkg_deinstall -f kolourpaint\* kwordquiz\*
|
|
|
|
|
|
3.) Now update the remaining KDE ports.
|
|
|
|
portupgrade arts\* kde\* quanta\*
|
|
|
|
or, if you want to update KDE along with other updated ports:
|
|
|
|
portupgrade -a
|
|
|
|
Note that the quanta port has been renamed to kdewebdev. The commands
|
|
above will automatically replace quanta with kdewebdev, if you have
|
|
quanta installed.
|
|
|
|
4.) Reinstall any KDE ports you deleted in step 2. Note that the kdeaddons-
|
|
kontact-plugins (net/kontact-plugins), kdepim-kpilot (palm/kpilot) and
|
|
quanta (www/quanta) ports/packages do not exist anymore and cannot be
|
|
reinstalled.
|
|
|
|
Known post-updating issues:
|
|
|
|
- If you're missing acoustic notifications (system sounds) after the update:
|
|
|
|
rm ~/.kde/share/config/knotifyrc
|
|
|
|
Then log out of KDE and back in again.
|
|
|
|
- KMail has been heavily modified since KDE 3.2.x. Testing shows that KMail
|
|
can display erratic behavior and crashes after the update. If you see any
|
|
such behavior, it is recommended to simply close KMail and start it again
|
|
until it resumes normal operation.
|
|
|
|
The integration of GnuPG and KMail for signing, encrypting and verifying
|
|
PGP/MIME mail has also changed. A quick howto is available at
|
|
http://freebsd.kde.org/howtos/gnupg-kmail.php.
|
|
|
|
- kdm users might get warnings from kdm about obsolete lines in kdmrc.
|
|
You can migrate your configuration while preserving your customizations
|
|
by running
|
|
|
|
genkdmconf
|
|
|
|
Make sure to backup your old kdmrc (usually found in
|
|
/usr/local/share/config/kdm) beforehand in case the merge produces an
|
|
invalid configuration.

|

lang/perl5.8 has been updated to 5.8.5. you should update everything
|
|
depending on perl, that is:
|
|
* first, upgrade your perl5.8 installation.
|
|
* run "use.perl port", so that the system knows you have 5.8.5.
|
|
* now, run some magic incantations to upgrade all ports depending on perl,
|
|
that is run something like :
|
|
portupgrade -f `(pkg_info -R perl-5.8.5 |tail +4; \
|
|
find /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.[124] -type f -print0 \
|
|
| xargs -0 pkg_which -fv | sed -e '/: ?/d' -e 's/.*: //')|sort -u`
|
|
This is likely to fail for a few ports, you'll have to upgrade them
|
|
afterwards.
|

Please note, that this last step is, strictly speaking, not necessary,

if you are upgrading from 5.8.4. But it is cleaner to do so anyway.

|
|
. The import task used the canonical version of a file path. This
|
|
has been changed to use the absolute path. Bugzilla 28505.
|
|
. ant-xalan2.jar has been removed since the only class contained
|
|
in it didn't depend on Xalan-J 2 at all. Its sole dependency has
|
|
always been TraX and so it has been merged into ant-trax.jar.
|
|
. All exceptions thrown by tasks are now wrapped in a buildexception
|
|
giving the location in the buildfile of the task.
|
|
. Nested elements for namespaced tasks and types may belong to
|
|
the Ant default namespace as well as the task's or type's namespace.
|
|
. <junitreport> will very likely no longer work with Xalan-J 1.

|
|
The old lang/php4 and lang/php5 ports have been split into 'base' PHP,
|
|
PEAR, and shared extensions to allow more flexibility and add new features.
|
|
Upgrading your current PHP installation will result in a 'base' PHP
|
|
installation (no PEAR and no extensions).
|
|
PEAR can be found in the new devel/php4-pear and devel/php5-pear ports, while
|
|
the set of PHP extensions to install can be chosen via the meta-ports
|
|
lang/php4-extensions and lang/php5-extensions, or installing singular
|
|
extensions individually.
|
|
If you have a previous php.ini configuration file, be sure to comment out
|
|
the extension_dir parameter, since the correct path is statically compiled
|
|
into the PHP binary.

For an overview of the modules used with the old PHP binary, use

The print/teTeX has been split into print/teTeX-base and print/teTeX-texmf,
|
|
and print/teTeX is now a meta-port for the two and print/dvipsk-tetex and
|
|
print/xdvik. print/teTeX installs dvips and xdvi by default again (via
|
|
print/dvipsk-tetex and print/xdvik). For people who want to use teTeX,
|
|
simply install print/teTeX with options set by default.
|
|
|
|
print/teTeX-base has additional options for adding xdvi and dvips included
|
|
in the teTeX distribution itself, but use of them are not recommended if
|
|
you do not understand what you are trying to do. Especially, when the
|
|
options are set by yourself, do not install ports that match *xdvi* and
|
|
*dvips* because they break the installed print/teTeX-base's dviware
|
|
and such conflicts will not be detected. In most cases, a combination
|
|
of print/teTeX-base + print/dvipsk-tetex + print/xdvik (which are
|
|
installed by print/teTeX by default) will be sufficient.

depending on perl, that is :
|
|
* first, upgrade your perl5.8 installation.

|
* run "use.perl port", so that the system knows you have 5.8.4.
|
|
* now, run some magic incantations to upgrade all ports depending on perl,

portupgrade -f `(pkg_info -R perl-5.8.4 |tail +4; \

If you presently run KDE and you have "Run with the highest possible

Sound System, click on the unchecked "Run with the highest possible priority

rm <PREFIX>/AntiVir/antivir.vdf
|
|
chown root:wheel <PREFIX>/AntiVir
|
|
chown root:smmsp <PREFIX>/AntiVir/hbedv.key
|

In your SENDMAIL_MC change
|
|
`S=unix:<PREFIX>/AntiVir/avmilter.sock, F=T, T=S:10m;R:10m;E:5m'
|
|
to:

and rebuild sendmail.cf.
|
|
If /var/spool/avmilter exist you have to:
|
|
chown -R smmsp:smmsp /var/spool/avmilter
|
|
If you are using a customized <PREFIX>/etc/avmilter.conf the port
|
|
won't remove it on deinstall and you have to manually change User
|
|
and Group to smmsp there.
|
|
Afterwards you can install the new version of this port. You then

should run antivirupdater to get a current VDF.

AUTHOR: knu@FreeBSD.org
|

Change the default version of ruby to 1.8 for i386.
|

|
If you are a ruby developer and want to keep ruby 1.6 as default,
|
|
please add RUBY_DEFAULT_VER=1.6 to /etc/make.conf.
|
|
|
|
Otherwise, please run the following series of commands to migrate to
|
|
ruby 1.8:
|
|
|
|
1) Reinstall portupgrade manually (and as a result ruby 1.8 will be
|
|
installed):
|
|
pkg_delete portupgrade-\*
|
|
(cd /usr/ports/sysutils/portupgrade; make install clean)
|
|
|
|
2) Reinstall everything that depends on ruby 1.6 to use ruby 1.8
|
|
instead:
|
|
portupgrade -fr lang/ruby16
|
|
|
|
3) Reinstall ruby 1.8 (because the previous step kills symlinks):
|
|
portupgrade -f lang/ruby18
|
|
|
|
4) Deinstall ruby 1.6 stuff (if you are paranoia):
|
|
pkg_deinstall -ri lang/ruby16
|
|
|
|
5) If the above commands do now work somehow and portupgrade starts
|
|
causing LoadError, please reinstall portupgrade manually again.
|
|
Whenever you get confused, you can always deinstall portupgrade
|
|
and all the ruby stuff (run "pkg_delete -r ruby-\*") and
|
|
reinstall portupgrade as a last resort.
