Andrea,

OK, after finishing with currently mutually exclusive Boost without Python
and Boost with Python ports I will try to create Base libraries from
Boost port and complementary Boost.Python bridge ports.

always-interactive ports

2008-11-24 Thread Andriy Gapon

I wonder if we have any flag for always-interactive ports i.e. ports
that prompt user for something regardless of all batch/interactivity
options. One example is java/jdk* ports that prompt user for license
acceptance.

If we don't have such a flag, maybe we should add one.

One use, for instance, is to skip such ports for portupgrade --batch.

You will probably find this is for legal reasons.

Doing this could make fBSD liable which we certainly don't want.

Re: archivers/rar: lib32 is not actually needed on amd64

2008-11-24 Thread Andriy Gapon
on 20/10/2008 17:14 Andriy Gapon said the following:
 I try to install archivers/rar on amd64 system without 32-bit userland
 (NO_LIB32) but with 32-bit support in kernel (COMPAT_IA32) and I get the
 following error:
 
 ** Port marked as IGNORE: archivers/rar:
 requires 32-bit libraries installed under /usr/lib32
 
 On the other hand, if I comment out the following line in port's
 Makefile I get successful installation and properly working rar:
 IA32_BINARY_PORT= YES
 
 And also:
 $ file /usr/local/bin/rar
 /usr/local/bin/rar: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1
 (FreeBSD), statically linked, stripped
 
 So, being a static executable rar can not require any libraries. It does
 require 32-bit support in kernel, of course.
 
 So, I think that IA32_BINARY_PORT should be changed to some other check.
 E.g. something like IA32_STATIC_BINARY_PORT that would check only for
 HAVE_COMPAT_IA32_KERN and not for HAVE_COMPAT_IA32_LIBS (speaking in
 terms of bsd.port.mk).
 
 I am CC-ing freebsd-ports because there can be other similar ports that
 could benefit from the suggested relaxed check.
 

Anyone?

 Can Openoffice.org 2.4 and 3.0 coexist on the same system?

I have compiled  installed both on amd64.  The binaries do not
conflict (see below), Both start OK announcing right version numbers.
But I'm not a serious user  no idea if all libs  other includes
etc are carefully segregated.

cat /usr/ports/editors/openoffice.org-3/pkg-plist
# Dummy file, do not delete. Package list is generated automatically.
So look in makefile, or if you request, I could private mail you my
/var/db/pkg/ openoffice.org-2.4.2  openoffice.org-3.0.0
so you could check segregation.

 Also, importing spellcheck dictionaries into either version results in bad 
 tranfer url. Is there a solution to this?

Don't know, have just compiled  installed both, hardly use oo at present,
except to export .doc to .pdf.

IS_INTERACTIVE for java/jdk* ports

At least jdk15 and jdk16 ports should be marked with IS_INTERACTIVE
because they always ask user about license acceptance.

That's from the building user's point of view.

The easiest way to handle this in the port itself is to set
IS_INTERACTIVE=yes in the port's Makefile, as documented in bsd.port.mk.

devel/subversion-freebsd: libsvn_client-1.0 symlink

2008-11-24 Thread Andriy Gapon

I am using subversion-freebsd port as a replacement for normal subversion.

Recently I tried to install kdesdk port and was quite surprised to see
that it wants to pull in devel/subversion.
It turns out that kdesdk checks for svn_client-1.0 in its LIB_DEPENDS,
but subversion-freebsd installs/symlinks only libsvn_client-1.so*. I
assume that normal subversion port installs libsvn_client-1.0 file or
symlink.

Maybe subversion-freebsd should do that too.
Or maybe kdesdk should have svn_client-1 dependency.

Committers have the ability to host such distfiles using the
MASTER_SITE_LOCAL variable.  You'll have to provide the person who
commits the port and updates with some way to obtain the files, but as
long as they are fully redistributable, we can do that.

 You should better head over to security-advisories@ if you're only
 interested in SA's. Claiming about reading security related issues on a
 security mailing list sounds like fun.

 I appreciate Eygenes' work.

That's nice.  I am sure it is very useful on the ports mailinglist
where it belongs.  I also greatly enjoy the frequent interesting and
informed discussion on the security mailinglist - of which Eirik
Overby's thread recently about syn+fin is one example.  But all these
ports announcements, raw patches, garbled html etc. I could really do
without.  It is why there are separate lists.

You should better head over to security-advisories@ if you're only
interested in SA's. Claiming about reading security related issues on a
security mailing list sounds like fun.

I appreciate Eygenes' work.

  Can we not have these on the freebsd-secuirty list please?  I
  subscribe to freebsd-security to get security alerts, not to get
  emails every time a port is changed.

 That's nice.  I am sure it is very useful on the ports mailinglist
 where it belongs.  I also greatly enjoy the frequent interesting and
 informed discussion on the security mailinglist - of which Eirik
 Overby's thread recently about syn+fin is one example.  But all these
 ports announcements, raw patches, garbled html etc. I could really do
 without.  It is why there are separate lists.

you do know that the email your complaining about is about a security update
correct? if you don't like it then you really need to use
security-advisories instead of being subscribed to this one
