There is this attempt to update freerdp in the ports

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=198618

which is somehow difficult to solve, as vinagre, another client,
seems to fail with the update. Any ideas ?

That's great!

I'm just wondering what version of freerdp you supposed as latest?
I've seen a lot of new remmina 'releases/tag in github' since last
year. But freerdp has only release from Sep 2014. That version is
already in ports tree for a long time.

Re: Remmina ported to FreeBSD

[Koichiro IWAO]

Nice,

Once I've been worked on remmina port but not a former maintainer.  I 
noticed
remmina repository has freebsd branch and someone's working on remmina 
on FreeBSD.

Thanks for your great work.

BTW, avahi-gtk3 is missing in the build instruction.

Hello, Antenore.
Looking at [2] it appears you have a somewhat fat RUN_DEPENDS list
for each of the 2 ports you intend to create. You can probably get
up to speed fairly quickly by reading the Slow Porting[3] section
of the FreeBSD porters documentation. You should be fine mostly
glossing over it, using the appendixes for references, as need be.
After giving it a quick read, look in the ports tree for some
examples of similar applications to get a better feel for how to
compose the Makefile, and what's needed to create the additional
files to create a complete port for your port(s). If, along the way
you still find you have questions; feel free to email me off list,
and I'll be happy to help you out. You also have the FreeBSD Forums[4]
and IRC channels[5] available to you for support.

Remmina ported to FreeBSD

[Antenore Gatta]

Hi all,

Since a couple of years, I'm the new maintainer of Remmina (with
another guy, Giovanni), a GTK remote desktop application.

I've also got rid of most of my Linux desktop to pass to FreeBSD as my
main desktop environment (philosophical reasons).

I've modified Remmina and requested some changes in the last
FreeRDP version so that both now, compile on FreeBSD without any
(almost) issues. [1][2]

I'd like to help out with the port, of both packages, to update them to
the latest version, since we fixed tons og bugs and implemented tens of
new features.

Honestly I'm less than a newbie on FreeBSD so I'd really appreciate
some guidance, that doesn't mean I want to avoid to RTFM, I just want
to read the right one.

Thanks a lot in advance for your support!

Owncloud port marked broken with PHP 7.0 and MySQL

[Jim Ohlstein]

Hello,

Not sure of the motivation behind this. Owncloud has supported PHP 7.0 
since prior to this release (9.0.0). See 
https://owncloud.org/blog/php-7-is-here-and-owncloud-is-ready/. Perhaps 
removing the unnecessary php(Xx)-mysql runtime requirement is what's 
actually needed, as it actually requires php(Xx)-pdo-mysql. That in 
itself creates a php-mysql dependency in PHP versions up to 5.6, but not 
in later versions, such as 7.0.

I was wrong - it does, and works very nicely too.  I'm just too
used to version numbers on pkgs, so I looked for xfce4.

(But there is a missing file in the port, and the kitchen-sink
model really is a problem.)

Re: print/cups overhaul (PR 207746) side-effects

[Walter Schwarzenfeld]

Where is the problem? There is only one "big" port (llvm36). Will be 
sstimate 1 !/2 hours. Poudriere and more synth often wants more.

xfce4 build fails in 10.2 RELEASE: FNF

[Margaret]

Since as yet xfce4 doesn't exist as a package, I tried to build
xfce4 under 10.2 RELEASE using only defaults.  

But the build fails in x11-toolkits because printbackend-cups.so
is not found.  -files.so and -lpr.so exist, but -cups.so does not
That happened AFTER it spent 4.5 hours downloading a whole
gigabyte of tex rubbish that gtk3 apparently wants.  Since all I
wanted at that point was graphics mode and xterm so I could debug
samba more conveniently, I kept deselecting things and
re-starting, trying to avoid having to waste those 4.5 hours. But
nothing worked, and eventually I threw up my hands and let it do
what it wanted -- which was to waste the 4.5 hours and then fail
to build!

I'm absolutely not trying to have a go at Olivier, the
maintainer.  He does yeoman work!  

I'm complaining about the kitchen-sink model that needlessly
prevents coherent subsetting, needlessly steepens every learning
curve, and needlessly makes maintenance harder.  It's perverse
and a violation of Unix principles.

Re: Future of pecl ports

[Gasol Wu]

Hi miwi,

First of all, I'm appreciated for your PHP support in FreeBSD.

I have received many outdated notices regarding the PECL ports from
portscout because I'm the maintainer.
I saw the same problem here when I start to packaging, So I'm so happy
 to see this discussion here.

IMHO, I will vote option (c). Here is my thought.

1. Explicit is better than implicit
2. It will be bad if we upgrade ports without changing port name,
especially they have BC problems.
3. I would like to see official support for installing different
version of PHP in same FreeBSD box
without using 3rd-party tools like phpbrew or phpenv.
Imagine that we have /usr/local/bin/{php55,php56,php70} respectively

Regards,
Gasol.

FreeBSD ports you maintain which are out of date

[portscout]

Dear port maintainer,

The portscout new distfile checker has detected that one or more of your
ports appears to be out of date. Please take the opportunity to check
each of the ports listed below, and if possible and appropriate,
submit/commit an update. If any ports have already been updated, you can
safely ignore the entry.

You will not be e-mailed again for any of the port/version combinations
below.

Full details can be found at the following URL:
http://portscout.freebsd.org/po...@freebsd.org.html


Port| Current version | New version
+-+
print/lilypond-devel| 2.19.11 | 2.19.38
+-+


If any of the above results are invalid, please check the following page
for details on how to improve portscout's detection and selection of
distfiles on a per-port basis:
