I'm working on updating a port that depends on a bunch of X11 and Gnome
stuff. It seems there are a bunch of ports that don't honor PREFIX. In
addition there seem to be a number of ports that are improperly done,
because the detection of dependent ports fails.
For example, building x11/libX11 results in this:
===> Installing for libXau-1.0.6
===> libXau-1.0.6 depends on file: /usr/local/libdata/pkgconfig/xproto.pc
- found
===> libXau-1.0.6 depends on executable: pkgconf - found
===> Generating temporary packing list
===> Checking if x11/libXau already installed
===> libXau-1.0.6 is already installed
You may wish to ``make deinstall'' and install this port again
by ``make reinstall'' to upgrade it properly.
If you really wish to overwrite the old port of x11/libXau
without deleting it first, set the variable "FORCE_PKG_REGISTER"
in your environment or the "make install" command line.
*** Error code 1
Stop in /usr/ports/x11/libXau.
*** Error code 1
This should not be happening.
The Makefile doesn't even list a build dependency for libXau.
BUILD_DEPENDS+=
${LOCALBASE}/libdata/pkgconfig/xcb.pc:${PORTSDIR}/x11/libxcb \
${LOCALBASE}/share/aclocal/xorg-macros.m4:${PORTSDIR}/devel/xorg-macros
RUN_DEPENDS+= ${LOCALBASE}/libdata/pkgconfig/xcb.pc:${PORTSDIR}/x11/libxcb
XORG_CAT= lib
USE_XORG= bigreqsproto xau xcmiscproto xdmcp xextproto xtrans \
kbproto:both inputproto xf86bigfontproto xproto:both
I suppose it's somehow being picked up by XORG_CAT= lib, but ports should
know when a dependency is already installed and not try to build it again,
right?
. if ${XORG_CAT} == "lib"
USE_GNOME+= gnomehack pkgconfig
USE_LDCONFIG= yes
CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--enable-malloc0returnsnull
. endif
So is this something wrong with the underlying make system? Something
wrong with the xorg system? Gnome?
Or is it me?
