If you report port compilation errors, always use DISABLE_MAKE_JOBS, otherwise the actual error message will drown in multithreaded spam. :) (And even if you would save and post the full build log, it is sometimes still impossible to see which exact command failed and why.) That said, you are most likely running into an issue with the fix for FreeBSD 10-CURRENT in bsd.port.mk, causing the lto-plugin stage configure script to fail. This is because the gcc ports unpack their source code into ${WRKDIR}/gcc-${VERSIONSTRING}, and then override WRKSRC to ${WRKDIR}/build. Since bsd.port.mk only applies the run-autotools-fixup to ${WRKSRC}, the gcc source itself is not properly fixed up. You can try the attached patch, which fixes this (and fixes it for all other ports that override WKRSRC).

WITH_DLZ_LDAP=true Does this actually enable LDAP backend support or is it something else?

Sorry about that. But can I use that to dynamically set up my link to the new device when the memory stick is inserted? No, devfs.rules can't run arbitrary code when a device is added. devd.conf is the place for that. Actually, create a new .conf file in /etc/devd/ for your own customizations. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
Re: BIND and LDAP support

I posted the following message on the FreeBSD forums a few weeks back but have had no replies, so I thought I'd try here on the lists: System: FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE 64-bit Hello, I'm going to attempt to install the latest BIND port (dns/bind98) and have a couple of questions about the available install options: WITH_REPLACE_BASE=true Does this delete the base BIND version and if so would I need to edit src.conf to tell the compiler not to reinstall base BIND when I do a buildworld cycle? WITH_DLZ_LDAP=true Does this actually enable LDAP backend support or is it something else? The reason I ask is because there seems to be a separate port for BIND LDAP support but it's for an older version of BIND (dns/bind97-sdb) Thanks for any assistance. Hi, Regarding WITH_REPLACE_BASE, yes, this will make make install install the files in place of the base system's ones, as opposed to in /usr/local/ . If you do this, you will indeed want to add the following to your /etc/make.conf : NO_BIND= true Regarding your LDAP question, I'm still at work and it's 9PM so I'm a bit in a rush, but a quick google search turned up the following: http://bind-dlz.sourceforge.net/ldap_driver.html Regards, ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

restore(8) to UFS on USB key: terrible slow
Hello, I encounter the following problem with UFS file systems on USB keys, i.e. the problem is not only with one key, but with all I have; the key in question here is: Dec 7 22:17:47 tinyCurrent kernel: umass0: Generic Mass Storage, class 0/0, rev 2.00/1.02, addr 3 on usbus4 Dec 7 22:17:47 tinyCurrent kernel: umass0: SCSI over Bulk-Only; quirks = 0x4101 Dec 7 22:17:47 tinyCurrent root: Unknown USB device: vendor 0x058f product 0x6387 bus uhub4 Dec 7 22:17:48 tinyCurrent kernel: umass0:0:0:-1: Attached to scbus0 Dec 7 22:17:48 tinyCurrent kernel: da0 at umass-sim0 bus 0 scbus0 target 0 lun 0 Dec 7 22:17:48 tinyCurrent kernel: da0: Generic Flash Disk 8.07 Removable Direct Access SCSI-2 device Dec 7 22:17:48 tinyCurrent kernel: da0: 40.000MB/s transfers Dec 7 22:17:48 tinyCurrent kernel: da0: 7650MB (15667200 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 975C) and the system is: $ uname -a FreeBSD tinyCurrent 9.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 9.0-CURRENT #1 r21: Thu Oct 28 10:56:32 CEST 2010 The key was formatted the usual way for receiving a complete FreeBSD system for installation purpose: # fdisk -I da0 # fdisk -B da0 # bsdlabel -w da0s1 auto # bsdlabel -B da0s1 # bsdlabel -e da0s1 # newfs /dev/da0s1a # mount /dev/da0s1a /mnt When I now bulk write a big file to the file system, the write performance is reasonable fast, even with blocks of 512 bytes, it gives 2 MByte / sec: # dd if=usb.dmp of=/mnt/byte 10926520+0 records in 10926520+0 records out 5594378240 bytes transferred in 2538.942585 secs (2203428 bytes/sec) the file of ~5 GByte was written and I removed it again; to be sure that the file system is synced, I do an unmount(8) and mount(8) it again before: # df -kh /mnt Filesystem SizeUsed Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/da0s1a7.2G5.2G1.4G79%/mnt tinyCurrent# umount /mnt tinyCurrent# mount /dev/da0s1a /mnt tinyCurrent# df -kh /mnt Filesystem SizeUsed Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/da0s1a7.2G5.2G1.4G79%/mnt tinyCurrent# rm /mnt/byte tinyCurrent# df -kh /mnt Filesystem SizeUsed Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/da0s1a7.2G 24M6.6G 0%/mnt when I now restore a DUMP into the filesystem, the restore(8) creates first the directory tree: # cd /mnt # restore rvf /home/guru/usb.dmp this goes very fast (as far as I see from the lines scrolling) for the first few thousand dirs: ...
