Possibly unbuildable ports reminder
Dear porters, This is just a reminder to please periodically check the list of unbuildable ports at http://pointyhat.freebsd.org/errorlogs/ . A list by MAINTAINER is http://people.freebsd.org/~fenner/errorlogs/ so you can easily check the status of ports that you maintain. In addition, the list of ports with no MAINTAINER with build problems is http://people.freebsd.org/~fenner/errorlogs/po...@freebsd.org.html Since no one is responsible for these ports, the problem won't get fixed unless someone on this list takes the initiative. Thanks for your help!

Re: [patch] Make git dependencies optional.

When using git as a deployment mechanism, I'd like to be able to have minimal dependencies installed on the production system. The git developers have made git so every dependency is optional. This patch adds options to the port, so that with 'make config' you can choose to not install any dependencies. The following options were added: PERL Build perl based git tools on \ ICONV Support for multiple character encodings on \ CURL Support HTTP push and pull on \ The options default to the previous state of affairs, so ports users will by default get a git that works exactly like before. Some points about the patch: * When git is built without perl support, stubs are installed for all perl dependent commands, so the packaging does not change greatly with or without perl. * When git is built without curl support, three commands are not installed. Packaging changes slightly. * When git is built without curl support, the expat dependency is no longer needed. * When git is built without iconv support, nothing changes in the packaging. And obviously UTF-8 support is still present. PR: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=139993 Thanks in advance for considering this patch. Please let me know if additional changes are necessary. I'd love to help you get this into FreeBSD ports.

I guess a fully fledged MiniDisc transfer software could be interesting for alot of FreeBSD users as well ;-). Mmmm... Well, I think the best bet is yourself! The MAINTAINER variable in ports' Makefiles points to the person responsible for the given port. Everybody can become FreeBSD port maintainer. If you search for my email address at http://www.freebsd.org/ports/index.html in 'maintainer' category you'll find the ports I'm maintaining. Creating FreeBSD port is not so difficult. And your companions here are 1) Porter's Handbook: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook 2) Other ports as examples and 3) this mailing list if you have some specific problems. However you'll find that it is better to roll some distribution of your software to use it in the port (so to be possible to download tarball with sources and not to use git directly). Good luck!

The idea for requiring qtcreator for building the code in the manual was to make sure all necessary qt4 build-dependencies for qhimdtransfer would be installed. qtcreator dependes on qt4-qmake and qt4-uic for example which are not installed automatically when I install qt4 from ports.
