portmaster and meaning of --show-work
Hi, manpage of portmaster says: --show-work show what dependent ports are, and are not installed (implies -t). It is right behavior of this option, but I think its name is confusing. I think it should be names something like show-deps or show-installed-deps instead of show-work.

Well, afaik I even cannot use more than one CPU when building ports. There were plans/rumors that this would change. Does anyone know more about it? Sure you can, as Boris (below) linked, this happened long time ago, especially: You don't need to do anything to enable the new feature. Whitelisted ports will automatically make use of all processors available in your computer. Most large ports I have seen (and use) luckily take advantage of all available processors during build (which completely sucks for desktop systems, but then, you normally shouldn't do that on a station where you try to work, so I'm fine with that). There's no way you'd be able to build 450 ports in 45 minutes if you were using only one CPU/core. It has happened: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports/2009-March/053736.html I believe *dependencies* of a port will be compiled using one process (and thus CPU) at a time, however. Interesting, are you sure this really happens? At least I understand you mean that - let's say - when i choose to compile, i.e. www/webkit directly, it will use all available processors (which it does, all the time), but when I try to compile, say, www/epiphany, which pulls www/webkit as a dependency, it will get built without MAKE_JOBS_SAFE, locked to a single processor? I can test in a short while if that's really the way, just asking, if I got you right.. No. Only one port is built at a time but if that port is MAKE_JOBS_SAFE it will build in parallel. -- WXS ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

It is right behavior of this option, but I think its name is confusing. Yes, I've never liked the name, but I've never been able to come up with something better. I've always sucked at naming things, which is sort of ironic for a DNS guy. :) The name show-work is more like show me what steps will be done, Yes, that's the idea. Also, if you look at the usage it is supposed to be clear that it's relevant to one port specified on the command line. So the idea is to show what work will be done to install that port. for example in the following case I want to know what is installed (and up to date), what is installed (but will be updated), and what is not installed and will be installed. At the moment the --show-work feature lacks the ability to show you installed ports that need updating, yes. I agree that this is a desirable feature, more on that below. example: list of available updates To get the whole list of things that need updating use 'portmaster -L', but I have a feeling that's not what you meant. The next step (non default) can be interactive run of portmaster for beginers with questions like: # portmaster php5-extensions The following ports will be updated or installed as part of update of php5-extensions: [there will be similar list as above] Do you really want to continue the update? Y/N: Funny you should mention that. :) The current svn version of portmaster (users/dougb/portmaster) has this exact feature, and it's almost ready to be committed to the port. It's currently on by default, and I just need to add a knob to disable it, and some code to override it if the only thing to do is the one port the user specified on the command line. I may get to that today, but $REALLIFE has been kicking my *hrmph* lately, so it may not be done till the weekend. I would appreciate it if you would give that a look and tell me if it suits your needs. It's likely that once I'm 100% convinced that this new feature is the right way to go that I will drop the --show-work option altogether. hth, Doug -- Improve the effectiveness of your Internet presence with a domain name makeover!http://SupersetSolutions.com/ Computers are useless.

I know Julian very well and he's, umm, very cautious. I assume he wants a knob he can turn on to avoid installing binaries while doing unattended installations, i.e. with BATCH set to yes. Thanks, Yes, sort of, Mechanism would be similar to implemenation methoid of BATCH, (Except we could improve on it by not having different strings eg Makefile: IS_INTERACTIVE=YES Mk/*: BATCH= but perhaps Makefile: IS_BINARY=YES Mk/*: SKIP_BINARY_INSTALL=YES # (or NO) ) It could be use with BATCH (but doesnt have to be), eg personally I do a multi pass build on my ports, cd /usr/ports ; make BERKLIX_CLIENTS=YES BATCH=YES # overnight cd /usr/ports ; make BERKLIX_CLIENTS=YES # later build of interactives next day Usage of SKIP_BINARY_INSTALL would be personaly choosable I'd specify SKIP_BINARY_INSTALL=YES (if not default in Mk/*.mk) but others could equally choose Not to assert it. Example: I just did an upgrade (to 8.0) compiled installed 694 ports (inc. dependencies), from my set of */Makefile.local Manually scanning Makefiles each remake (inc changing dependencies), looking for binary rogue software sneaking through, is pointless, when binaries without source could so easily be marked in Makefiles. The mechanism would help people companies that have a policy: Install No software without matching sources. Others could ignore occasional declarative markers in a few ports like www/opera/Makefile IS_BINARY=YES One could debate whether default make install behaviour from Mk/ should be to continue to install (as now), or exit 1, on the few ports needing IS_BINARY=YES; Default would be over-ridable by an env var to make command. There is a spectrum of usage, no one preference fits all, No point trying to convince each other 1 policy is best for all :-) Some run binaries ie BLOBs, drivers, opera, mega ports (openoffice), flash binaries under linux emulators etc, maybe havent source, enthusiasm, time, space or interest to build their own. Some (by temperament, employer, or market sector, eg security companies, firewall manufacturers, military development support, government security etc), may want to No software tools installed without matching sources. Not everyone needs the hook, but that's no reason not implement it; it is simple, helps some, will not harm others who can ignore it.

Re: Using Perl 5.8.8

It is my first port anyway, so any recommendation/correction will be appreciated.

Re: Suggestion: A new variable for a few Makefiles: IS_BINARY
I'm sorry, you still haven't answered my questions: 1. What dangers are you trying to protect users from? 2. Why do you feel that existing safeguards for what goes into the ports tree are not adequate? Responding indirectly to your last post, the ports infrastructure is already VERY complex. Complex systems by their very nature are fragile. Adding more complexity (and therefore more fragility) without a very good reason is a very bad idea. You are asserting that a change is necessary. Therefore it's on you to prove that the benefits of the proposed change outweigh the costs. Some of the costs that come immediately to mind: 1. Someone has to write the patch 2. Someone has to test it 3. Someone has to identify all existing ports that install binaries. 3. Someone has to add flags to all existing ports that install binaries 4. Someone has to verify that new ports that are added to the tree either do or do not have binaries, and that flags are set accordingly 5. Someone has to maintain the code once it's in the tree Your assertion from your previous message seems to be that it should be done because it will help some people, and won't hurt anyone who doesn't use it. I disagree with your analysis. I see significant costs in terms of person-hours to do the things that are in that list above, and I'm sure there are other costs that I'm not thinking of. So what I'm asking you to do is outline in detail what benefits your proposed change will bring to the community that will justify the cost of making the change.
