Bug ID: 247506
Summary: Example "poudriere ports -c" command example in
Porter's Handbook section 10.5.6 errors out if -M
directory already populated
Product: Documentation
Version: Latest
Hardware: Any
URL: https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/port
ers-handbook/testing-poudriere.html
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Only Me
Priority: ---
Component: Documentation
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Adapting that example to my ports layout (/usr/ports empty and svn co of ports
tree under ~/ports for ease of port maintenance) gives me:
% sudo poudriere ports -c -F f none -M ~/ports -p libudisks
[00:00:00] Error: Directory not empty at /home/pauamma/ports
After staring at the poudriere-ports manpage a bit, I tried:
% sudo poudriere ports -c -m null -M ~/ports -p libudisks
[00:00:00] Imported ports tree "libudisks" from /home/pauamma/ports
The rest of the port testing sequence proceeded without incident, so I assume
that command was OK, so I'd like to use it instead of the erroring command for
the handbook, on the grounds that it's really counterintuitive to have a
"directory must only be populated *after* issuing this command" restriction at
this point in the workflow implied by the handbook order. However, since I'm
not a poudriere expert, I'd like one to comment on the proposed language change
before I submit a Phabricator review. (Cc'd [email protected] to that
effect, on the grounds that they're the port maintainer and thus presumably
know more about poudriere than I do.)
