Re: disabling boot output
* Omer Faruk Sen [ Jan 4, 2008 (15:20 )]: How can I disable boot messages so user can't see any boot message. I think there is 4 part for that and each of them requires a different configuration file to be edited. 1) boot 2) loader 3) kernel message 4) init scripts Can anyone send me an URL that depicts those changes? Or at least where to look for them. I think 2,3,4 can be done with configuration files but 1 step requires some code change right? You can send the output to a serial port by putting console=comconsole into /boot/loader.conf. See http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ serialconsole-setup.html for details. çok selamlar arved ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: ports/115885: misc/help2man: help2man ignores installed gettext
* snowcrash+freebsd [2007-09-03 18:30]: again, WHAT supported configuration are you talking about here? FreeBSD ports test if a file is installed to check if a dependency port is installed. If you are tricking by installing the file via some other mechanism, it breaks. there's a properly installed perl-module. expecting freebsd ports of perl programs to correctly use perl-compliant module installs is, somehow, unreasonable? The FreeBSD ports collection is not a perl program, so it has no knowledge what CPAN is. Neither does CPAN know what a FreeBSD port is, unless you use something like bsdpan. So why should it work? Mel wrote: Except for apps in the ports, because cpan/cpanp can not register *port* dependencies. RUN_DEPENDS does not mean check if this file exists, it means register a dependency on this port. What it does is: 1) check if the port is installed and if not install it. 2) add a line @pkgdep portname-version to $PKGDB/portname-version/+CONTENTS 3) add a line @DEPORIGIN:category/origin to $PKGDB/portname-version/+CONTENTS 4) add a line portname-version to $PKGDB/depname-version/+REQUIRED_BY If you wanna get rid of this problem, you could use an AFTER_INSTALL hack in pkgtools.conf to undo 2)-4). Messy, but works. Much cleaner is to just use the ports system p5-*. It does it's job very well that's not been my experience -- but, that's not the argument here. i think it's not unreasonable to expect that a perl-module is a perl-module is a perl-module. if it's properly installed -- and, in this case, it is, just like ALL my other perl-modules, then a port should treate it consistently/correctly. Did you actually read what he wrote? He explained in detail, what is missing for a proper port installation. just like all my other ports do -- just NOT help2man. If you think there is something broken with this specific port, submit a patch. But as i told you, this is a problem with all ports that depend on a perl module. as for working around the problem ... the SIMPLEST solution is not to bother with ports system in this case, and do a manual install of help2man. Another solution may be to set WITHOUT_NLS. So you don't get dependency on p5-gettext. and since you're familiar with cpan/cpanp I'm sure you'll have no problem installing modules that might not exist in the freebsd ports into a directory *outside* the ports hierarchy (/usr/local) and add this to the module search path. when help2man is installed via ports it *USES* the cpan-installed perl-module. Because you installed it into the wrong directory. The directory under /usr/local belong to the ports collection, and if you install software from somewhere else into it, it might break how the FreeBSD ports collection works. Anton Berezin wrote: Sorry, but I am afraid that if you insist on not using Perl modules installed via ports this means you cannot expect any ports depending on Perl modules to work. are you impkying that a perl module installed by ports is somehow different than one installed by perl/cpan itself? Yes, a FreeBSD port is not only the original source, but also the meta information. regards tilman ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
