It came to my attention today that the pkg-install script that I've written for the security/sguil-server port fails during package building. (The script works fine when compiling from source.) The problem appears to be related to the location of WRCSRC, which appears to be different than it is when building from source. Am I correct about that? Is WRCSRC different when building packages? If so, is there a way to differentiate programmatically between a port being built from source and one being built from a package? There's no WRKSRC directory when a package is installed. I've had a look at sguil-server and you have two options. The first one is to install your sql script somewhere under ${DATADIR} then read it from there in your pkg-install script. The second, better in my opinion, is to move most of your POST-INSTALL target into a shell script of its own that you'll install in ${DATADIR} (note that it still requires to install that sql file as well). Quick look shows that your port is interactive, and not marked as such in Makefile.

There was talk some time ago of having extended descriptions. Several ideas, but the one that made the most sense to me would be a box at the bottom that would display a description as you moved through the options: [.] BRG [X] QFZ Bernstein Riggs Guillotine parsing with the . representing the cursor/highlight position. Move down and the bottom line would change to say Quantum Freeze Zulu rending. The nice thing about the box at the bottom is it would give a full line or possibly several lines for explanations. Seems like it could be added without breaking the existing system with an optional OPTIONS_DESC variable that would correspond with OPTIONS. I don't really know how hard that would be; ideas are cheap, implementation more costly. I don't think there's any need for any new features in the ports infrastructure. I think it's just a matter of Makefile authors taking the time to describe their options. A quick test of some ports turns up this one: [ ] OPENGL OpenGL support True but useless. How about: [ ] OPENGL Use OpenGL graphics library ...which, at least give the user _some_ idea what they're doing. OpenGL probably isn't a good example, however. It's pretty easy to Google OpenGL and figure out what it is. Here's some more bizarre options: [X] EPUB Epub modules [X] EXTENSIONSExtensions [X] TEMPLATE Templates [X] TOOLS Tools I mean, if I enable Extensions, what happens? How do I figure out what happens? I have to read the Makefile, at which point having these options on a menu is pretty pointless. I mean, I can't even come up with a Google search to help me figure out what tools are involved here. There are some ports that do this very well. For example: [ ] NLS Use internationalized messages [ ] PAM Build with PAM support (server only) [ ] LDAP Build with LDAP authentication support [ ] MIT_KRB5 Build with MIT's kerberos support [ ] HEIMDAL_KRB5 Builds with Heimdal kerberos support [ ] OPTIMIZED_CFLAGS Builds with compiler optimizations (-O3) [X] XML Build with XML data type (server) [X] TZDATAUse internal timezone database (server) [ ] DEBUG Builds with debugging symbols [ ] ICU Use ICU for unicode collation (server) [ ] INTDATE Builds with 64-bit date/time type (server) I mean, a Google on ICU is liable to bring up all sorts of medical drama websites, but I can do a search for ICU unicode and find my answer on the first result. Not only am I told that optimized compiler flags are an option, but I'm told the exact one that will be used (-O3) The porters handbook doesn't seem to offer any helpful advice on these: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/porters-handbook/makefile-options.html In fact, the examples it provides are excellent examples of doing it WRONG. Let me see about making a patch to the porters handbook to provide some advice ... While I'm not opposed to being verbose in the short descriptions there is a limit to the length of the message. If you want more accurate descriptions I have done the work to make it happen (ports/123185), and it is now sitting in portmgr territory.

All it does is to do echo | $libs or echo $includes or similar. The benefit is that you as a | author of software Y just need a little config file which lists | everything, and pkgconfig is responsible for all the common tasks | like version check and printing.

First off, thanks for your detailed reply and getting to the core of my question (obviously, the size of pkg-config is not an issue.) | To repeat what mezz said, the X stuff does not depend upon | GNOME. The X stuff depends upon pkgconfig. pkgconfig is also used by | GNOME. It's a little and useful infrastructure thing. With pkgconfig | you can check if software Y is installed, which version it has, | which include path you need to compile it, and which libs to link to | if you want to use it in your software Z. All it does is to do echo | $libs or echo $includes or similar. The benefit is that you as a | author of software Y just need a little config file which lists | everything, and pkgconfig is responsible for all the common tasks | like version check and printing. It also unifies the interface if | you need to query for software. To tell you the truth, I know what pkg-config does -- a very useful tool, indeed. | It originated in GNOME, but as it is small and light, it is used now | in more or less everything. For example openssl uses it too (but | unfortunately openssl in the FreeBSD base system does not install | the corresponding config file), but this does not make openssl | depend upon GNOME. A perfect example -- you can see the difference in how X and openssl approach this: -- $ grep -i 'pkgconfig[^/]*$' Mk/bsd.openssl.mk Mk/bsd.port.post.mk Mk/bsd.xorg.mk security/openssl/Makefile x11-drivers/xf86-video-nv/Makefile| less Mk/bsd.xorg.mk:# app - requires pkgconfig, don't install shared libraries (I guess) Mk/bsd.xorg.mk:USE_GNOME+= pkgconfig Mk/bsd.xorg.mk:USE_GNOME+= pkgconfig Mk/bsd.xorg.mk:USE_GNOME+= pkgconfig Mk/bsd.xorg.mk:USE_GNOME+= gnomehack pkgconfig security/openssl/Makefile: -e 's|lib/pkgconfig|libdata/pkgconfig|g' \ -- | It just looks to you like GNOME because the config variable in our | ports infrastructure is spelled USE_GNOME. This is for historical | reasons, it could also be named USE_INFRASTRUCTURE (it | automatically adds suitable BUILD_DEPENDS, RUN_DEPENDS and/or | LIB_DEPENDS and additional stuff just by adding a keyword). And this is my point -- change the make files appropriately. While Gnome is great, many people don't use it and don't want to be confused and be quietly dragged into Gnomedom. The use of USE_ make file variable should conform to what bsd.port.mk says, IMHO. | pkgconfig could be extracted from the USE_GNOME stuff, and it could | even maintained by someone else than the FreeBSD gnome team, but the | FreeBSD gnome team is doing a good job at maintaining it, and | there's no benefit in extracting pkgconfig from USE_GNOME.
