What is CPP's real default include path?
I've been fiddling with compiling nzbget-0.4.0 on a 6.3 system. My initial efforts failed the configuration process for not finding iconv.h.

This is so that I can use rsync as root to sync the mail spool and home directories. Will this work? I am using sendmail and wu-imapd. Follow the instructions for setting up ssh keys (there are dozens of howtos all over the 'net) then tweak /etc/ssh/sshd_config to allow root login (the config paramter is pretty obvious). Ensure that you either have a very strong root password, or that password auth for root is disabled first. Then, rsync you stuff using ssh as the connection mechanism (there's a command line switch for this in rsync, don't remember the details) Once you've got things rsynced the first time (while running) shut down all the services on the active machine and rsync again.

I looked into this when doing some work on Wine about a year ago: * Wine doesn't work under the Linux compat layer because of differences between Linux and FreeBSD mmap(2) and because the implementation of the set_thread_area syscall is too simplistic. * Wine doesn't work on FreeBSD/amd64 because the kernel doesn't preserve the segment registers on context switches. Also, Wine and all its dependencies (xorg libs etc.) should be built as 32 bit. Ideally the ports system would provide the infrastructure for that.

lang/php5 fails in apxs
Hello, I stumbled across this behavior roughly a year ago. The php5 port has the following lines in the pkg-plist: [EMAIL PROTECTED] %D/sbin/apxs -e -a -n %%AP_NAME%% %f [EMAIL PROTECTED] %D/sbin/apxs -e -A -n %%AP_NAME%% %f This command reads /usr/local/etc/apache22/httpd.conf, looks for LoadModule lines, appends a LoadModule for php5, and exits. I don't have any LoadModule lines in my httpd.conf; they've all been separated out into include files. The result is the port fails to install: | apxs:Error: Activation failed for custom | /usr/local/etc/apache22/httpd.conf file.. | apxs:Error: At least one `LoadModule' directive already has to exist.. | pkg_add: command '/usr/local/sbin/apxs -e -a -n php5 libphp5.so' failed | --- Removing old package' | ** Fix the installation problem and try again. Needless to say, this is annoying. I have to remember to add a LoadModule foo foo.so line to the httpd.conf whenever I upgrade php5, and remove both it and the PHP LoadModule directive when I'm done. Why does the port think it's kosher to touch live configuration files? A lot of people keep their configurations under revision control (and most probably should). On the next commit on my system, this change is gone anyways. Does anyone have any decent work arounds? Better yet, is there any interest in fixing the php5 port so that it doesn't touch configuration files? At the very least, I'd love a knob to disable the feature. -- Chris Cowart Network Technical Lead Network Infrastructure Services, RSSP-IT UC Berkeley pgpKoAwIlilXW.pgp Description: PGP signature

FWIW, apparently, the solution is to run this: portupgrade php5-* and let it upgrade every package. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: living with freebsd
* prad [EMAIL PROTECTED] [2008-05-04 22:12:23 -0700]: do you use only ports or only packages or a mixture? Primarily ports. do you upgrade from version to version using freebsd tools or do it manually? I use portmanager. do you have a different approach regarding the above depending on whether it is for a server or a desktop? Only my servers run FreeBSD. the handbook tells you what you can do, but i'd like to know what is actually done and why. Well, that's just a bit too open-ended isn't it? ;-) -- Sahil Tandon [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
