In pkgsrc, there is currently pkgsrc/geograph/proj as 5.2.0. This package name is what pkgsrc considers to be the currently-packaged version, and what everything that depends on proj depends on. This package is marked (in a comment) as not allowed to be updated to 6 until I as package manger think the fallout is manageable. In wip/proj, there is 6.0.0. wip is technically not part of pkgsrc, but people can install from there and then rebuild whatever they like. I've been doing this in order to test if things work with 6. (packages in pkgsrc proper are not allowed to depend on wip/. wip is a combination of what others might call "testing", and a place where pretty much anyone can get write acess to place packages.) Already quite a few more things work with proj 6 than when I started this process. I do not have an up-to-date list of what's trouble. It's probably time to install proj 6 and try to build everything that depends on proj again. > Since NetBSD doesn't have most of the problematic packages or hasn't > patched them as heavily as in Debian, I think that you should be able to > move to PROJ 6 much sooner than other distributions. I agree with your assessment. Overall, I think we're making pretty good progress. _______________________________________________ gdal-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/gdal-dev
