Supported arguments are:
- c++11-lang: the port needs a c++11 aware compiler what ever standard
library it uses, implies features
- c++11-lib: the port needs a c++11 standard library, implies features
- c11: the ports needs a c11 aware compiler implies features
- features: this will create a COMPILER_FEATURES variable which contains
the list of features ${CC} do support, implies env.
- env: the COMPILER_TYPE will be set to either gcc or clang.
By default the uses will try to use clang33 from ports when nothing in
base is relevant except if the user explicitly defines
FAVORITE_COMPILER=gcc in his make.conf
Please note that testing tinderbox prior to version: 4.0.1_1 is not able to
properly figure out the dependencies implied by this USES.

New "compiler" USES to be able to select the compiler based on the
|
|
features it provides.
|
|
Supported arguments are:
|
|
- c++11-lang: the port needs a c++11 aware compiler what ever standard
|
|
library it uses, implies features
|
|
- c++11-lib: the port needs a c++11 standard library, implies features
|
|
- c11: the ports needs a c11 aware compiler implies features
|
|
- features: this will create a COMPILER_FEATURES variable which contains
|
|
the list of features ${CC} do support, implies env.
|
|
- env: the COMPILER_TYPE will be set to either gcc or clang.
|
|
|
|
By default the uses will try to use clang33 from ports when nothing in
|
|
base is relevant except if the user explicitly defines
|
|
FAVORITE_COMPILER=gcc in his make.conf

New USES: qmake, configure tool widely used among Qt based projects.
|
|
New framework is stage-friendly. To convert existing ports remove
|
|
custom configure target, adjust QMAKE_ENV, QMAKE_ARGS, QMAKE_PRO if
|
|
required (see Mk/Uses/qmake.mk for details).

PATCHFILES now support an optional :-pX flag that notes which patch strip
|
|
level to use. This allows multiple patches in 1 port to use different
|
|
PATCH_DIST_STRIP values without changing PATCH_DIST_STRIP.

Stage aware ports can now create package without the requirement from
|
|
being root.
|
|
If a port really needs root anyway it should add NEED_ROOT in its
|
|
Makefile.
|
|
|
|
For a port that needs special credential on files DO NOT RELY on
|
|
chown in post-install section but rely on @own, @group in pkg-plist
|
|
Be careful about rights on directories as pkg_install cannot store them
|
|
they needs to be done via @exec chown.

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.

USE_TCL_WRAPPER, USE_TK, USE_TK_BUILD, USE_TK_RUN and USE_TK_WRAPPER macros.
|

See the Mk/Uses/tcl.mk and the commit message of r327607 for details.
|
|
|
|
Moreover, the default Tcl/Tk version is now specified in terms of
|
|
bsd.default-versions.mk. It is now possible to specify one's preferred Tcl/Tk
|
|

To allow ports to work with the iconv implementation in 10-CURRENT after
|
|
commit r254273 the USES=iconv options now conditionally adds a dependency
|
|
depending on the FreeBSD version. It also defines a few utility variables
|

which can be used in the ports:
|
|
|

ICONV_CMD: location of the iconv binary.
|
|
after r254273: /usr/bin/iconv

* Two new USES macros to handle mime data of ports.
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
lines can be removed from the prot.

* The ports tree is now using pkgng as the default package manager
|
|
for HEAD. This only affects users of CURRENT -- users of other

* CCACHE support for building ports has been added (depends on
|
|
devel/ccache). Therefore new user settable variables are available:
|
|
|
|
WITH_CCACHE_BUILD - Enable CCACHE support (Default off)
|
|
|
|
NO_CCACHE - Disable CCACHE support for example for certain
|
|
ports if CCACHE is enabled.
|
|
|
|
By default CCACHE uses $HOME/.ccache as cache directory. To use
|
|
a non-default cache directory this could be overwritten like:
|
|
|
|
MAKE_ENV+= CCACHE_DIR=/var/cache/ccache

* GitHub support has been integrated into bsd.sites.mk. In order to
|
|
fetch distfiles from GitHub, a port must define USE_GITHUB along
|
|
with the following variables:
|
|
|
|
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}
|
|
|
|
GH_TAGNAME - name of the tag to download (master, 2.0.1, ...)
|
|
default: ${DISTVERSION}
|
|
|
|
GH_COMMIT - first 7 digits of the commit that generated GH_TAGNAME
|
|
(man git-describe(1))
|
|
default: not set, mandatory
|
|
|
|
The port www/tivoka is an example how to use this mechanism.

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

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.

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

|
|
|
* Remove 'tk42' and 'tcl76' categories since they're obsolete.
|
|
|
|
* Introduce DISTVERSION variable, that can be set instead of
|
|
PORTVERSION and is automatically converted in a conforming PORTVERSION.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
DISTVERSION= 10Alpha3
|
|
|
|
extends 10Alpha3 to 10.a3
|
|
|
|
DISTVERSION= 3Beta7-pre2
|
|
|
|
extends 3Beta7-pre2 to 3.b7.p2
|
|
|
|
* Use --suffix option instead of -b for patch(1), to make it
|
|
compatible with BSD patch(1).
|
|
|
|
* Fix {WANT,WITH}_MYSQL_VER behavior, to deal with conflicting
|
|
versions.

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 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>

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

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.

|
|
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.
