I have read that instruction and I am also not clear with what the correct
syntax is for /etc/make.conf.

I have come up with this:

# apache22
.if ${.CURDIR} == ${PORTSDIR}/www/apache22
${APACHE22}_SET=SUEXEC
${APACHE22}_SET=SUEXEC_DOCROOT /www
${APACHE22}_SET=SUEXEC_USERDIR  /www/*/cgi-bin

${APACHE22}_SET=SUEXEC_LOGFILE /var/log/suexec.log
.endif

 I cant say if that's how it should be, but I think:-)


Hopefully, Chris can help us understand the syntax better.

For buiness purposes, it is _critical_ that you consult -- on a *paid*,
professional basis --with a competent legal profesional in your 
jurisdiction -- one with expertise and experience in 'IP' (intellectual 
property) matters.  That way, if the advice/opinion you get, and 'rely on',
turns out to be incorrect, you have recourse against their malpractice
insurance.

That said, there is one set of rules that applies to the FreeBSD 'base
system' -- which is owned, maintined, and distributed by the FreeBSD 
Foundation -- which allows essentially unlimited use for any reason as
long as the copyright notices and source attribution are maintained.

The 'ports collection' operates under *different* rules -- with potentially
different rules for _each_and_every_ package in the collection.  These
packages are owned and maintained by various 'third parties', who THEMSELVES
decide on the licensing requirements/restrictions they impose.

You, or your legal counsel/solicitor/barrister, will have to review the
licensing terms of _each_and_every_ such 'third party' package that you
intend to make available to your users -- to see if/how/under what conditions
you can do that.  There are some packages where the rights owner allows
FreeBSD to distribute their package to directly to 'end users', but does
*not* allow someone who gets the package from FreeBSD to redistribute it
to others.

It is *YOUR* responsibility to review the license terms in each piece of
software in the ports collection to determine what is/is not allowed by
the licence terms on that piece of software, if it is for other than 
'personal' use.

Note: this is _generally_ accurate.   There are *rare* exceptions -- things
that have to be compiled against against the actual kernel in use, because
they go rummaging through kernel internal data structures.

Historically, lsof wa one such program.

Such programs tended to have *LOUD* caveats in the build documentation,
and run-time checks for kernel version consistency. 

In 30+ years as a sysadmin, I think I've only encoundered abouut _four_
such programs.

ABI is short for Application Binary Interface, and is a low-level interface 
between programs and the operating system [kernel] they run on.

You may have seen API as well - short for Application Programming Interface. 
This generally/usually is relevant to programs talking to other programs.

In FreeBSD, if changes to the ABI are deemed necessary, this will generally 
serve as a demarcation point between one major version revision and the next 
one coming along, e.g 7.x, 8.x, 9.x, and so on.

Problem upgrading fbsd-7.4 --> 8.3

2012-09-15 Thread Jack Stone
Am trying to upgrade fbsd-7.4 to 8.3. I get all the way through the 
usual procedure using sources, including installworld, when I attempt 
to run mergemaster as the final step, I get this fatal error.


I've searched the list and google, but don't find the right answer. 
What am I possibly doing wrong and what should I do to get around this?


The error:
mail# mergemaster -viF

*** Creating the temporary root environment in /var/tmp/temproot
 *** /var/tmp/temproot ready for use
 *** Creating and populating directory structure in /var/tmp/temproot

 *** Press the [Enter] or [Return] key to continue

  *** FATAL ERROR: Cannot 'cd' to /usr/src and install files to

When updating within a major release version such as 8.1 to 8.x the ABI is 
stable and remains the same so it is not necessary to update the third party 
packages/ports. It becomes necessary to rebuild/update whenever changing 
from one major release to another, such as from 8.x to 9.x for example.

If you use csup and a supfile to update src, just use tag=RELENG_8_3 to pull 
in the security maintenance release bits. Currently it is at P4.

pkgconf-0.8.9 conflicts...

2012-09-15 Thread Modulok
List,

I've been seeing a lot of this recently when I try to install new ports. The
following is on a fresh install of FreeBSD 9.0 Release, when I tried to install
linux-f10-flashplugin11 from ports. (It happens with several other packages
too)::

Stop in /usr/ports/www/linux-f10-flashplugin11.

pkgconf-0.8.9 conflicts with installed package(s):
pkg-config-0.25_1

So, I try this::

pkg_delete pkg-config-0.25_1

But of course I can't deinstall it because several hundred already installed
require it.

Suggestions?

FreeBSD ports system is a set of tools to deal with software created
elsewhere. The information about licences, permissions, etc. should
be looked at the original site, asked to original authors. The source
files may be used for the referrence.

As a starting point I'll suggest using the file pkg-descr at the
port's directory. This file usially hes a refference to the
original site.

Thank you for your interest at the FreeBSD Operating System.
