Hi all, Attached is a first attempt at packaging the SimplePie RSS-parsing library for PHP [0].
I doubt I did the packaging entirely properly, but it works as is on my 5.4 machine. Where I might have not done it properly: * Getting the code from GitHub: there is a lot of messing around with DISTNAME, PKGNAME, V and DIST_SUBDIR; I couldn't find a clearly standard way other ports (or GitHub...) do it. It might be worth adding a recipe in network.conf.template for that. * Installing the library (only) in /var/www/pear/lib. This is not a PEAR library that I know of, but this allows not to have to fiddle with the conf for PHP to find it. Other ports do it this way, e.g., www/php-markdown or www/php-openid. * Not installing any support file. I tried (they are commented out), but couldn't determine where they should go (all in /var/www?, /usr/share?, /usr/share/php-5.3?) The port also installs a compiled version of the library and symlinks it as simplepie.inc for backward compatibility. At the moment, SimplePie tries to create a cache in "./cache" for the PWD of the calling PHP script. I'm not sure whether we should pull it back to, e.g., [/var/www]/cache, as the current situation requires multiple directories to be writable by www, or at least for a writable cache directory to be created manually. All thoughts and comments are welcome. Thanks.
