For stable/12/ and releng/12.*/ and release/12.*.*/ svn can still be used: git use is and will be optional, although svn is somewhat delayed from git for when commits appear. (There was a recent problem that made for a huge delay for svn to have the commits appear. That has been fixed and the delays are back to the normal timescale as I understand.) For stable/13/ and releng/13.*/ and relelase/13.*/ and main (14) and later: snv can no longer be used to get source. === Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.com ( dsl-only.net went away in early 2018-Mar) ___ 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"

By the way, now 12.x-STABLE needs to bring the source with the following git command. Is there an announcement about it anywhere? git clone -b stable/12 "https://git.FreeBSD.org/src.git; /usr/src git -C /usr/src/ fetch -- origin stable/12 git -C /usr/src/ merge -- git -C /usr/src/ reset --hard HEAD -- Regards. ___ 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"

Thank you for your thoughtful suggestion, Mark. It returns: FreeBSD fbsd12dev 12.1-STABLE FreeBSD 12.1-STABLE r363918 GENERIC amd64 amd64 1201522 1201522 Is that bad? Thanks for the reply, Jonathan. You're running 12.1, and not -STABLE. The EOL for 12.1 was Nov-2019. Odd. It _says_ it's the STABLE branch. You need to get a later version or run -STABLE (ie: build from source off the stable/12 branch). It _was_ built from the stable/12 branch. All be it a good while ago. I guess I've somehow lost my understanding of what tracking STABLE really means. Or maybe it's changed. But I installed from a 12-STABLE medium. uname(1) reports it's 12-STABLE (12.1-STABLE). But it's _not_ 12-STABLE. See my confusion? :-) Thanks again. --Chris Cheers. -- Jonathan Chen ___ 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"

When did pkg(8) drop support for 12-STABLE?
OK On a virgin 12 stable install. Followed by a svnlite co svn://svn.freebsd.org/portd/head /usr/ports and a /usr/src already populated. A trip to /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/pkg followed by make install clean returned: /!\ ERROR: /!\ Ports Collection support for your FreeBSD version has ended, and no ports are guaranteed to build on this system. Please upgrade to a supported release. No support will be provided if you silence this message by defining ALLOW_UNSUPPORTED_SYSTEM. *** Error code 1 Stop. While I could follow pkg's suggested alternative. This all just seems very wrong. Is there any way to disable pkg completely. So I can simply build ports, rather than packages? maybe a WITH_PKG=false USE_PKG=false or something else?
