For the record, this did not break anything, and if anything, it is breaking some of the rules for installation, as it installs portdata outside of the portname, itself, in addition to the its' own portname directory inside the default DATADIR. All of this aside, the only place I have seen this reference to "DATADIR safe" is portlint. I have not seen it in bpm, or in the handbook. If portlint is correct, we need to update the other documentation to support it. To the point if it is unsafe -- every port that uses this, is then unsafe, and should be fixed. Beyond this, why not make it DATADIR safe, if there is an unsafe, for all applications by removing the configrability of it. Is there any reason that portdata should be installed elsewhere? In closing, if there is an unsafe, why are we supporting anything that is unsafe? Thanks. - -jgh - -- Jason Helfman | FreeBSD Committer [email protected] | http://people.freebsd.org/~jgh -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (FreeBSD) iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJPoKRVAAoJECBZmmNBUNPcNcsH/1zZEZjqLhiXtIwFMs2SSJ5/ 9yYmfdwHsf5e1AlM4qNQoNEwdnIDDVvt3dYH8Twvu4ZMF2EaSBjf9dq0ZFiy7Og0 +9B0tipkfHGpG5ebq3Yj1vaZyfnGmaCtCd1nYXx1hYCz1uNFl2ffVoV1DSlwQY7Y oNqms2j/btxDTNM+zJzKgiyGgjLePr+5FkwpGVyfa2iRuZ6mNH9xjKSo0Wf6i32N WqOiVgudaq5V8pl3NAg8pjA2FBej8yvmzMM5QaxEvArowuRrn5Rfcnk0DP14pmdH P+OT1+SPlpoeuWPfGZrNLr7xuH80x2CIHtSqhWgziG8MRsWUnb3VyS5apXwoLks= =x9jJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/cvs-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
