FreeBSD Port: void-zones-tools-1.0.2
Installed the port today. No manual included or any information about how to use it.

Call for testing VMware open-vm-tools update
VMware has been contributing to making FreeBSD a first class citizen for their open source vmware tools. As a continuing part of this contribution there's a new version of open-vm-tools in the works. The INO64 work in FreeBSD HEAD broke building open-vm-tools for HEAD/i386, and there was a kernel panic that affected HEAD/amd64. That has been addressed and vmware has started QA for the tools for FreeBSD 11.1-R and 10.3-R amd64 and i386. I've given this update a fair amount of testing and it gets a "works on my machine" certification from me. The new version is available as a port at https://people.freebsd.org/~jpaetzel/open-vm-tools.tar.gz . Feel free to give it a spin and please report any issues by filing a bug at https://bugs.freebsd.org/ If you tag the bug you create as ports emulators/open-vm-tools it will get auto-assigned to me. -- Thanks, Josh Paetzel ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
Re: screen, ncurses and ncurses.mk
I removed the ncurses port. Had to recompile a lot of ports (but not all 411). (Conky pulled ncurses:ports in. I compiled conky only with USES=ncurses. It seems to work). Solved. ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
Re: screen, ncurses and ncurses.mk
I think ncurses.mk set the default to ncurses:base. There is no entry in for ncurses in /etc/make.conf. If the default is base, I think I don't need a entry in /etc/make.conf. But it seems my system uses ncurses:ports.

Re: screen, ncurses and ncurses.mk
It is not clear what means onyl Uses=ncurses. If I try pkg delete ncurses I got: umber of packages to be removed: 411 ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

No, python uses ncurses, it doesn't require the one from ports. Only 3 or 4 anecdotal ports require ncurses from ports.

screen, ncurses and ncurses.mk
The maintainer of sysutils/screen changed to USES=ncurses:base.
This will not work if ncurses:ports is installed (python uses it).
Ncurses.mk has:
if exists(${LOCALBASE}/lib/libncurses.so)
followed by a warning and exit.
So no port can install ncurses:base if ncurses:ports is installed.
