 IMHO gio-fam-backend should not be implicit dependency. Otherwise why
 not to install all existing non-conflicting libraries just to ease
 maintainer's life :-
 FWIW x11-toolkits/gtkdatabox2 (PR 116120) do not need gio-fam-backend.

 Well, all ports should depend on gio-fam-backend. The gio is included and 
 part of glib20. marcus had to split gio out of glib20 package to avoid 
 circle dependency of glib20 - gamin (FAM replacement) - glib20. If 
 marcus doesn't split and you guys will have that gio library anyway.

Thanks, somewhat much clearer now. I had some feeling that gio-fam-backend is
freebsd specific.
How many chances are there to account for existence of gamin upstream?
(So to avoid glib - gamin - glib circular dependency)


 Uh, I should have check in glib20 and gio-fam-backend before I made that 
 comment. I thought that gio (libgio-2.0.so) is in gio-fam-backend, but not 
 it's in glib20. The gio-fam-backend only installs libgiofam.so and FAM 
 support is option in glib configure. I don't think it will be easy to make 
 optional (maybe I am wrong) with that split. Remove gio-fam-backend 
 dependency is going to hurt some users if they want some missing fuction(s) 
 of it.


So configure option is not enough. Does separating gio-fam-backend by
original developers solve the problem better?

I'll second Mark's recommendation to re-install rather than attempt
a source upgrade.

Note that, whilst your 4.x ports tree will continue to work with 7.x
(assuming you have the relevant compat4x libraries), you will need to
do a complete ports rebuild as soon as you upgrade any port (pretty
much).  (Otherwise, you will wind up linking against different versions
of the same system libraries - a recipe for disaster).

This is fantastic! People have always been asking me 'so does the

successfully enrolled and verified my fingerprints no problem, using an

Cool, it works for me, even pam module.

As I understand, pam module requires user name first.
So there no way to make gdm/kdm/*dm just scan image, find apropriate
user and login him ?

Have you seen/reviewed security/bioapi and security/bsp_upektfmess
(later works only on RELENG_6 now) ?

Looks like fprint ports are introduce one new bioapi ?

Re: Building 'gvfs'

On Mon, Apr 14, 2008 at 6:12 AM, Gerard [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
 FreeBSD-6.3

 I have attempted to update to 'gvfs-0.2.3_2'. I have not modified the 
 configuration file in any way. In fact, I even ran 'make rmconfig' to insure 
 that it was not affecting the build. However, the update continually fails. 
 'gvfs' claims it wants 'cdio_paranoia.0' installed.

 I have 'libcdio-0.78.2_1' installed with the basic configuration file. I was 
 forced to modify the configuration file, check 'PARANOIA', and rebuild the 
 port in order to get 'gvfs' to build.

 This does not seem correct. I suppose that I could have also modified the 
 'gvfs' configuration file; however, neither should be required to do a basic 
 port installation. I believe the 'gvfs' port should be modified.

 Am I overlooking something here?


By default sysutils/libcdio has PARANOIA enabled.  Looks like you had
installed sysutils/libcdio without PARANOIA enabled, and then tried to
install devel/gvfs with CDDA enabled.  Which required PARANOIA to be
enabled in sysutils/libcdio.

The ports system isn't smart enough to know PARANOIA needed to be
enabled in sysutils/libcdio, inorder to build devel/gvfs with CDDA
enabled.

One possible solution is to add the following to devel/gvfs/Makefile:

OPTION_DEPEND= devel/libcdio:WITH_PARANOIA

and then have bsd.ports.mk check if WITH_PARANOIA is enabled, if not
enabled give a warning to rebuild the devel/libcdio port with PARANOIA
enabled.

A couple of times? Congratulations...

One should not need this luck, nor this instinct, however.

Until I decide to upgrade gnome, all other gnome-using ports should be content 
with the version of gnome I already have...

This is all patently obvious, I might add. The automatic gio-fam dependency 
should be made smarter and/or optional (depending on which gnome is already 
installed).

 How about working with the gnome-team instead of blaming them?  I'd bet
 that if you had to upgrade Gnome by hand, you would be using KDE or
 something else.

Yes, yes. We have to come to this point, don't we? After several attempts are

party to help the culprit (even if an /explicit/ aknowledgement of the 
blunder is yet to appear)...

Gnome@ is a team. They are not lacking in resources, AFAIK. The author of 
tinderbox is a prominent member, for crying out loud! The problem is the 
philosophy. I readily admit, that their work is vast, but the all your 
ports are belong to us and the portupgrade is easy, so shut up attitude is 
not something, that working with the gnome-team can help with...

Meanwhile, judging from what can be gathered from their mailing lists, the 
KDE@ team is working hard to ensure peaceful co-existence of KDE3 and KDE4 
ports...

 Shouting at gnome-team won't help at all.

Pointing out a problem sometimes helps prevent it from reoccuring or, at

helps fix the current instance...

Re: www/links port fails to build with DirectFB library

2008-04-15 Thread Steven Kreuzer
Hey Adam-

I think the best course of action would be for you to correct the offending
lines in the Makefile and then open up a PR with the patch. After the
maintainer of the port approves the patch, it can be commited to cvs.

Thanks for catching this.

IMHO gio-fam-backend should not be implicit dependency. Otherwise why
not to install all existing non-conflicting libraries just to ease
maintainer's life :-
FWIW x11-toolkits/gtkdatabox2 (PR 116120) do not need gio-fam-backend.


Well, all ports should depend on gio-fam-backend. The gio is included  
and

part of glib20. marcus had to split gio out of glib20 package to avoid
circle dependency of glib20 - gamin (FAM replacement) - glib20. If
marcus doesn't split and you guys will have that gio library anyway.


Thanks, somewhat much clearer now. I had some feeling that  
gio-fam-backend is

freebsd specific.
How many chances are there to account for existence of gamin upstream?
(So to avoid glib - gamin - glib circular dependency)


I had chat with marcus (included my team) to get more clear info for us.  
He said:



Here's the deal.  Glib 2.16 includes a lot of the file management
code  that was previously included in gnome-vfs.  Part of that code
is a file monitor wrapper which allows the new GIO subsystem to get
real-time file update information.  This wrapper has FAM, inotify,
and Solaris backends.  The only backend that works on FreeBSD is
the FAM backend.


If anyone is still complaining, then anyone can implement a GIO monitor  
using pure kqueue. This will get glib20 to not depend on FAM anymore. It  
can be take a lot of code from gamin.


marcus has said a bit more:

Since we couldn't have glib depend on FAM directly, I broke out
this file monitor module into a separate port.  Any port which
depends on glib could use the GIO subsystem, and would need one of
these file monitor modules to be fully functional.  I thought it
would be easier to just make ports that depend on glib20
automatically require this module so maintainers wouldn't have to
check and see if their port used GIO.

Fam/gamin are not big dependencies.  Hell, they don't even take
up memory unless used.


Keep in mind, in the next major release of GTK+ depends on GIO. It's  
already in GTK+ SVN for depend on GIO, so it won't make any difference.



Uh, I should have check in glib20 and gio-fam-backend before I made that
comment. I thought that gio (libgio-2.0.so) is in gio-fam-backend, but  
not

it's in glib20. The gio-fam-backend only installs libgiofam.so and FAM
support is option in glib configure. I don't think it will be easy to  
make

optional (maybe I am wrong) with that split. Remove gio-fam-backend
dependency is going to hurt some users if they want some missing  
fuction(s)

of it.



So configure option is not enough.


Nevermind about above for not think will be easy. I have taken a look more  
in gio-fam-backend and figured out to make optional. I am still discussing  
with my team (some disagree and agree), because make it optional will  
causing some reduced functionality in runtime. I am thinking about add  
something like WITHOUT_FAM_WARNING with better explain and users will know  
their choice to have functions reduced, so can't be report to us.


IMO, I do still think add optional is a bit silly since GIO basicually  
already have similar function of gamin. It's just happen that there is no  
kqueue backend available for FreeBSD and forced us to get glib20 depends  
on FAM or gamin. I am kind of on fence to make it optional.



Does separating gio-fam-backend by original developers solve the
problem better?


I think marcus's comments have answered to this.

Cheers,
Mezz


Alexey.

Re: ports/122783: [PATCH] editors/emacs: update to 22.2

2008-04-15 Thread KIMURA Yasuhiro
Hello.

Would someone please try the patch of ports/122783? I made this patch
as following:

1. Change PORTVERSION to 22.2 and reset PORTREVISION to 0.
2. Update distinfo by doing 'make makesum'.
3. Remove obsolete patch-src-gmalloc.c.
4. Fix pkg-plist.
5. Adjust bsd.emacs.mk accordingly.

Every step is generic for port update, no emacs-specific know-how is
required, and it works fine for me. But maintainer says installation
fails as bellow. 

I'm not familiar with build of emacs at all. So any suggestion or
solution is welcome.

I'm trying to install OpenLDAP as a server to attempt to try it out

required for these other apps?

And while I'm here... I tried installing the odbc backend, but it
