Re: Advice sought on Portmaster -Faf and deleted ports
Hi, I'm following the recipe at the end of man portmaster for deleting and reinstalling all my ports, which I have done many times in the past. This time, I am getting errors on the portmaster -Faf step involving deleted ports, and I'm not sure how to deal with this easily. What errors, exactly? Well, for example: portmaster -Faf it starts to fetch a bunch of files it finds a port which has been deleted, such as linux-base-fc4 and it says, linux-base-fc4 has been deleted. terminating terminating terminating etc. So, I am seeking expert advice here. Is there a way to automate this and keep myself out of trouble, or do I need to do a 'port-by-port' upgrade of each port? It should just work. Have you converted to pkgng? I dream of the day that the ports system will just work. I don't use binary packages, are you saying that pkgng will deal with this issue automatically?

find ports that aren't required anymore
I was using the postfix port, but decided to replace it with ssmtp to reduce ports in use and simplify system updating (deleting postfix with pkg_delete). Is it possible that deleting postfix will leave ports installed that aren't required anymore? Will pkg_delete also delete any dependencies no longer required? If I could have ports still installed that aren't required anymore? How can I find them now? Portmaster? All the information I could find related to finding dependencies for a port, not for finding installed ports that don't have parent dependencies.

CURDIR-relative paths in ports' Makefiles
Hello
I've noticed that many ports are using ${.CURDIR}/../../some/port
construction in their Makefiles.
But if you copy on of these ports elsewhere it won't work as expected
because of the relative path.
Shouldn't they use ${PORTSDIR}/some/port instead?
Thanks for the replies.

The use of relative paths is taken straight from The Porter's Handbook. eg.
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/makefile-masterdir.html
So it's officially correct to do that.
While there is no direct proscription against saying
${PORTSDIR}/some/port in that circumstance that I can see in the
documentation, relative paths are generally only used in slave ports for
the ${MASTERDIR} setting or more generally for including other
Makefiles; whereas absolute paths are used for all sorts of FOO_DEPENDS
variables. A quick (and by no means definitive) grepping of the ports
tree I just did hasn't shown up any counter examples.
If you intend to copy a slave port to some other location in your
filesystem and have it refer to the original master port within the
default ports tree, then you're assumed to be capable of editing the
Makefile to resolve any such changes.
Cheers,
Matthew

How to Fix Port Audit showing ports not installed on a system
I have a system that I just recently setup port audit, after realizing I forgot to install it on the machine.

Cheers, Matthew Thanks for the info, I have never used pkg_add, everything has been installed via ports and portmaster, but it is possible that some ports were installed prior to having the with pkgng added in make.conf, and that something happened in the pk2ng conversion. I thought I had built this machine after I had been running with pkgng, but perhaps this one was built right as I was switching over to it. I had originally built this machine with Xorg and KDE to use virtual box GUI, and once I became comfortable with the commands, switched to vboxheadless and removed all the GUI components. Which is where all the extra ports that were removed came from. I have removed the sub directories, now portaudit doesn't show any vulnerabilities in non existent ports, pkg info displays the correct installed packages, and portmaster -l matches the installed ports that pkg info displays. -- Thanks, Dean E.

Do I have to remove something for this command to succeed? Let's look at the command line you're using: pkg version -vIL= That -I means it's going to try and read the ports INDEX specifically -- ie. /usr/ports/INDEX Does that file exist? Does it have sensible contents? Now, given your further comments, it seems something relatively significant is wrong. There's on obvious (but fairly easy to fix) thing it might be. Have you run out of space on any of your partitions? What goes 'df -h' report? Any real partition reporting 100% full is a problem. (Don't worry about synthetic filesystems like devfs reporting 100% usage: that's normal.) If some filesystem is full, then you need to either delete stuff, or move it onto a filesystem with more space. You also seem to be having problems with portsnap(8) -- be aware there was a problem reported recently. See the thread on freebsd-ports@... subject 'Latest snapshot' starting with this message: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports/2013-July/084833.html but to summarize several people saw the problem, and the cure was to delete the files portsnap was using by 'rm -Rf /var/db/portsnap/files' and then re-run 'portsnap fetch' and 'portsnap extract' -- warning: this will wipe out everything you have in /usr/ports and download a complete set of replacements.

Problems Installing /usr/ports/devel/pear

just have a misconfiguration on my system that is causing the install

is up to date prior to this install.

1. Is there bond in FreeBSD or its Lagg?
It's lagg. Setting up bonded interfaces is different (Anthony C. or someone
else can provide more details about this). failover mode via lagg is
completely different from failover mode with IB IIRC.
2. I tried to create this way, but failed:
[root@qa-h-vrt-030-006 ~]# ifconfig lagg0 create
root@qa-h-vrt-031-005 conf]# ifconfig lagg0 laggproto failover laggport
ib0 laggport ib1
ifconfig: SIOCSLAGGPORT: Protocol not supported
Any ideas?
Is it supported on Infiniband ports?
The media setting pieces are look to only be supported with mlx4 in en mode:
1076 static int mlx4_en_ioctl(struct ifnet *dev, u_long command, caddr_t
data)
1077 {
...
1115 case SIOCGIFMEDIA:
1116 error = ifmedia_ioctl(dev, ifr, priv-media, command);
1117 break;
If I remember correctly, IB ports with mlx4 default to ib mode, not en mode
(it also helps to have the right drivers loaded for this).

Re: using ports or gems (easy_install)
Albert, I would like to known how you manage your gem (ruby) or easyinstall (python). Do you use ports ? or directly gems or easyinstall ? or both ? As far as I can, I use ports, for consistency. Me too. But what you do when you cannot ? (Like the ports don't exist) ? I see three possibility : 1/ write the ports (unfortunately not for me) 2/ wait until someone does (many time it's impossible) 3/ use easy_install or gem I use the solution 3 (cpan in the case of Perl). Best regards, olivier But I am using mostly Perl and CPAN is very well integrated in FreeBSD ports. Yes much better than ruby or python.

pkg_version says my ports need to be updated?

Managing conflicts between ports (same package with multiple maintained versions)
Hello, I am the maintainer of most of the Tryton ports. Tryton is a python based application framework where you can easily build your own business modules on top. It also provides some default modules for common uses. Currently Tryton 2.4 series is in the ports. From upstream the successor Tryton 2.6 is available. At Tryton, also previous releases are supported for an extended time. This is required, because users who spent time to build their own modules on top of e.g. 2.4 should not be forced to migrate immediately to 2.6 (and likely use a different API) just for a security patch or a bug fix. Thats why I want to bring in 2.6 to the ports while continuing maintaining 2.4. During the planning, I ran into the following issue: Tryton 2.4 and 2.6 install files to the same Python site-packages directory /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/trytond-2.4.5-py2.7.egg /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/trytond-2.6.3-py2.7.egg Even there egg names are different, the contained package names are equal: /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/trytond-2.4.5-py2.7.egg/trytond /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/trytond-2.6.3-py2.7.egg/trytond So for the python interpreter it would not be clear which one to import if you just import trytond. Renaming the package names doesn't look reasonable because it would require patching all Tryton modules (and will make it incompatible with custom built modules). So I think it is required to define it as a conflict if two versions of Tryton will be installed at the same time. My first approach was to define CONFLICTS= trytond-* in the Makefiles of trytond 2.4 and 2.6. This works and prevents installing two different versions. But portlint doesn't seem happy with it: root@compaq:/usr/ports/finance/trytond # portlint -AC [...] FATAL: Package conflicts with itself. You should remove trytond-* from CONFLICTS. 1 fatal error and 4 warnings found. root@compaq:/usr/ports/finance/trytond # So it looks like I need to explicitly specify the conflicting versions, e.g. in Tryton 2.4 Makefile put: CONFLICTS= trytond-2.6.* But this will force me to update the 2.4 Ports everytime a new series of Tryton gets introduced. Is there a better way to achieve this?

Re: Managing conflicts between ports (same package with multiple maintained versions)
Thanks Matthew, your recommendation works for me. As I expect from time to time also an older version getting EOL'd, the amount of versions to look ahead can be estimated quite well.

But when I attempt to install the latest openssl for the port system, it fails with a conflict (installs file in the same place) with heimdal.

ports issue: delete upstream perl dependencies by mistake

In the process of upgrading Perl, for every package that depended on Perl, via pkgdb, I somehow managed to delete the fact that the package depends on Perl itself.

You absolutely do not need to do that -- all you did will have affected the ports, which on FreeBSD is a distinct entity from the base system.

Re: Ports Packages [Stable] in sync
Jeff Tipton jef...@mail.com writes: Thank you, Damien, for the reply. AFAIK, STABLE gets updated every 2 weeks but not every day, and it seems to be that because of the intrusion, it has not been updated for long. The versions of the ports that come with the 9.1-RELEASE are even slightly newer than those of 9-STABLE packages. I think if I don't get the revision number from which the 9-STABLE was updated last time I'll use the ports tree that comes with 9.1-RELEASE. I hope it won't cause much version incompatibilities. Um, not really. Or at least, not specific enough to be sure whether it is correct or not. The ports tree is not branched, and is intended to work with all supported branches and releases. In other words, regardless of whether you're running 9.1-RELEASE, 9-STABLE (in svn/cvs terms, RELENG_9), or 10.x (HEAD), you can (and, unless you have specific reasons otherwise, usually corporate security dictates) should use a ports tree checked out from HEAD. This is unrelated to whether packages are available for the ports on a particular branch or tag. Package availability is unusually limited at the moment, but that's because the build cluster has very limited capacity right now for a variety of reasons. That situation will improve over time, but until computers are infinitely fast, the package collection will lag somewhat behind the ports tree. Packages need to be built for a particular base system (or close enough: generally all base-system versions in the same major-number release can run the packages for any other within that same series, most notably the -STABLE version). Additionally, -STABLE base system is updated by definition every time a developer checks into the relevant branch (currently RELENG_9). For ports, as I said earlier, there is no equivalent; updates go to HEAD, period. When packages get built for a particular base system is a matter of policy on the build cluster. I don't use downloaded packages for ports updates, but I would expect that to evolve as the new build cluster does. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

AFAIK, STABLE gets updated every 2 weeks but not every day, and it seems to be that because of the intrusion, it has not been updated for long. The versions of the ports that come with the 9.1-RELEASE are even slightly newer than those of 9-STABLE packages. I think if I don't get the revision number from which the 9-STABLE was updated last time I'll use the ports tree that comes with 9.1-RELEASE.

Portmaster runs make config three times for some ports
I started off portmaster on a massive update on Thursday evening. Everything started off OK and I kept responding to all the make config screens until they were all finished and the compilation was well underway then went to bed and left it to get on with it. The next morning I discovered that things had progressed as far as starting to build en-apache-openoffice but it was sitting there with the config screen again despite having already gone through make config earlier. I clicked on OK and left it to get on with the compilation while I went away to get on with other things with just occasional checks to make sure it was still running. About 6 hours later when I checked it had completed the compilation and had started to install en-apache-openoffice but was waiting yet again with the config screen. Once again I clicked on OK and left things to continue. The job was still running last night and I expected to find it completed by this morning but on checking at 9:30 this morning I discovered that it had done the same thing with py27-gobject and had been sitting there with the config screen since shortly after midnight. Both openoffice and py27-gobject had gone through make config in the initial stage (I've checked the log file) but for some reason make config was repeated immediately before the compile and install stages. I invoked portmaster with: portmaster -r libffi -r boost-libs -r gnutls -r libtasn1 and these are the only options set in /usr/local/etc/portmaster.rc # Never search for stale distfiles to delete (-D) DONT_SCRUB_DISTFILES=Dopt # # Do not prompt the user for failed backup package creation PM_IGNORE_FAILED_BACKUP_PACKAGE=pm_ignore_failed_backup_package Any ideas how I can avoid this happening. -- Mike Clarke ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Hi :)
I hope it's ok, when I open a new thread for this issue.
First I need to know what files have a bad owner.
I'm running
# freebsd-update IDS outfile_28Jan2013.ids
perhaps this will give some useful output, regarding to a wrong owner for
files from world.
It's still running.
I still have no idea how to check this for the files build from ports.
If I understand your problem correctly, it is of incorrect owner
group. If so, are there any problems with just running chown -R on
the parent directory (say /usr/local, where ports are installed by
default)?
In general, I find all this thread (wrong file owner) a bit boring. This
is a mayor damage and can only be repaired by a new installation. A lot
of files and directories in the systems filesystem, in / /var /usr, have
dedicated owner to allow certain processes which does not run as 'root'
to do their correct work there, for exmample 'mail'; i.e. you can not
do just a complete chown -R root and expect that the system
still works;
the same is true for the ports below /usr/local; just run on a correct
system something like:
# find /usr/local -exec ls -ld {} \; | fgrep -v root
to get a list about what I am talking.
