Yes, it could install to /usr/local, then make a symlink from /compat/linux to /usr/local/lib/linux, but I really don't think that a port has any business mucking around outside of it's ${PREFIX}. If this were the situation, someone would do a pkg_delete and wonder why the symlink from /compat/linux was left there. Although now if someone does a pkg_delete, the whole messy mtree is left. :( I'm open to suggestion here. >Did you ever try to install this as port?

It's just that I'm genuinely sick of 2.1 release engineering at this point (and I mean *sick* of it) and after I remastered again tonite, I found myself thinking: "I really don't want to do this again." Every time I re-roll a CD I have to rebuild all the kernels so I can do IDE CDROM and standard versions (which isn't automated - that I have to do by hand). I've done it about 6 times now and I'm really at the end of my rope (to say nothing of the box of CD blanks :-). Pulling in your stuff won't be too hard, actually, since it doesn't require that the boot floppies or kernels get rebuilt, so I'll pull them into my tree in any case just so they'll be there if I end up having to remaster. But I'm sure you can understand how I'd not want to remaster *just* for this, considering that it's pretty much all non-fatal stuff (except maybe for ImageMagik, but I think we can survive the disgrace :-).

Sender: owner-ports@FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Well, I found "the big one" that is going to make remastering between now and the 2.1 final CD inevitable. No, I'm not going to say what it is, but just to note that it will happen so, among other things, Satoshi's all-nighter the other night on the ports was not wasted. This also means that if you have something else to point out, you should please do it *soon* so that it falls somewhere within the 3 day "window" I've declared for waiting until the BETA CD people come back to me with their comments. This means Wednesday, basically, since the CDs went out Monday morning. I'm also not declaring this a flag day for coming back to me with all kinds of things you want in 2.1 in general, I'm talking about issues specifically related to the installation or the distributions that make up the release.

Just a minor nit, which I think was reported before. sysinstall creates (and later tests for) "/dev/ft0", while the 'ft' filter program uses "/dev/rft0" by default. This breaks the floppy tape for use during the install, and with the fixit floppy.

Sender: owner-ports@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk Hi ! I've just downloaded a port of my apsfilter program to ftp.freebsd.org:/pub/FreeBSD/incoming. I had 2 unsuccessfull upload sessions, so dont wonder, why these is so much different stuff lying there around with the name apsfilter.... The two files, that are ok are: apsfilter-4.9.2-port.tgz <- this is the small Port archive that should be extracted in /usr/ports/print apsfilter-4.9.2.tar.gz.hope_this_gets_uploaded ^^^^--- this package should be placed somewhere on wcarchive, since this is a FreeBSD special version, that is currently on no other ftp site available. Please rename it to apsfilter-4.9.2.tar.gz ;-) Yestarday evening Internet was so busy, that the upload f***** up when having uploaded about 50% After choosing a place for the "sources" you have only to edit the Makefile in the ports files, to change the Master ftp site. The installation method is interactive. make -> creates work/apsfilter directory in /usr/ports/print/apsfilter-4.9.2 make install -> calls the install section in work/apsfilter/Makefile. It copies the files to /usr/local/apsfilter It calls the interactive SETUP program from there After that you have made a fine PS printer out of your HP DeskJet 500 (for example) ;-)) For what I had no time ... Package dependencies. To use all the features of file type conversion, you should install the following packages before installing apsfilter: a) ghostscript (2.6 and the never 3.66 (?) are fine b) netpbm c) transfig d) jpeg -- andreas@knobel.gun.de /\/\___ Wiechers & Partner Datentechnik GmbH Andreas Klemm ___/\/\/ - Support Unix - aklemm@wup.de - \/ ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/system/Printing/aps-491.tgz apsfilter - magic print filter 4lpd >>> knobel is powered by FreeBSD <<< From owner-freebsd-ports Thu Nov 16 09:13:12 1995 Return-Path: owner-ports Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.6.12/8.6.6) id JAA29034 for ports-outgoing; Thu, 16 Nov 1995 09:13:12 -0800 Received: from who.cdrom.com (who.cdrom.com [192.216.222.3]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.6.12/8.6.6) with ESMTP id JAA29026 for ; Thu, 16 Nov 1995 09:13:07 -0800 Received: from cabri.obs-besancon.fr (cabri.obs-besancon.fr [193.52.184.3]) by who.cdrom.com (8.6.12/8.6.11) with SMTP id JAA02708 for ; Thu, 16 Nov 1995 09:13:03 -0800 Received: by cabri.obs-besancon.fr (5.57/Ultrix3.0-C) id AA10479; Thu, 16 Nov 95 18:06:31 +0100 Date: Thu, 16 Nov 95 18:06:31 +0100 Message-Id: <9511161706.AA10479@cabri.obs-besancon.fr> From: Jean-Marc Zucconi To: asami@cs.berkeley.edu Cc: ports@freebsd.org In-Reply-To: <199511161352.FAA01076@silvia.HIP.Berkeley.EDU> (asami@cs.berkeley.edu) Subject: Re: Growth of the ports tree X-Mailer: Emacs Sender: owner-ports@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk >>>>> Satoshi Asami writes: >>> du -s ports-* > 3848 ports-2.0 > 6116 ports-2.0.5 > 8628 ports-2.1 By extrapolation: 13600 ports-2.2 > Satoshi :) Jean-Marc 8-) _____________________________________________________________________________ Jean-Marc Zucconi Observatoire de Besancon F 25010 Besancon cedex PGP Key: finger jmz@cabri.obs-besancon.fr ============================================================================= From owner-freebsd-ports Thu Nov 16 12:34:25 1995 Return-Path: owner-ports Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.6.12/8.6.6) id MAA11636 for ports-outgoing; Thu, 16 Nov 1995 12:34:25 -0800 Received: from block.statsci.com (block.statsci.com [198.145.127.26]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.6.12/8.6.6) with ESMTP id MAA11629 for ; Thu, 16 Nov 1995 12:34:20 -0800 Received: from localhost (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by block.statsci.com (8.6.12/8.6.9) with SMTP id MAA07876; Thu, 16 Nov 1995 12:32:38 -0800 Message-Id: <199511162032.MAA07876@block.statsci.com> To: Jean-Marc Zucconi cc: asami@cs.berkeley.edu, ports@FreeBSD.org Subject: Re: Growth of the ports tree In-reply-to: Your message of "Thu, 16 Nov 1995 18:06:31 +0100." <9511161706.AA10479@cabri.obs-besancon.fr> Reply-to: scott@statsci.com Date: Thu, 16 Nov 1995 12:32:33 -0800 From: Scott Blachowicz Sender: owner-ports@FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Jean-Marc Zucconi wrote: > By extrapolation: > 13600 ports-2.2 ...then have something that approaches 0 ports-2.3 after all the world goes FreeBSD and is wired together on nice fast networks?

I would like to propose that all the category names for packages be changed to match those of subdirectories (e.g., "networking" -> "net"). You won't believe how many times I had to go delete the "utils" or "net" or "emulators" subdirectory in the packages dir. This is just too confusing, and also very easy to screw up and hard to catch. Most of the times, I find it when I am just casually cd'ing around (my "cd" does "ls" too), and say "hey, what's that `emulators' doing next to `emulation'?".... This is by far the worst offender of the principle of least surprise when it comes for a new porter to prepare her first port. According to my memory, 57.9% of the new porters made this mistake (or something like that). Comments? If this is okay, I'll go fix all the CATEGORIES lines before we start building packages for -current again. Satoshi P.S. This is just "standardizing" ... more name changes/division proposals will follow (e.g., "net" -> "net" & "www"), so please don't bring that up yet. I'll be away for the weekend.

Although this is probably not a problem for a CD user, it can be quite annoying for Joe 14.4k modem user. Thus, I propose adding two more fields, ports required for building (FETCH_DEPENDS, BUILD_DEPENDS, LIB_DEPENDS, DEPENDS) and ports required for running (RUN_DEPENDS, LIB_DEPENDS, DEPENDS -- this one is identical to the @pkgdep lines in the package), to the ports/INDEX file.

(Boy am I glad the release is out or what, this is so much fun) Some people have been complaining that the dependency mechanism is not flexible enough, i.e., {FETCH,BUILD,RUN}_DEPENDS can only take an executable as an argument. Although this was intended to protect us from cases when the target system has a non-standard path (e.g., /usr/opt instead of /usr/local) by using the "which" command that will DTRT as long as the PATH is set correctly, it was impossible to depend on a package that doesn't contain any executables. Thus, I propose the following change to the *_DEPEND paradigm: @ For FETCH_DEPENDS, BUILD_DEPENDS and RUN_DEPENDS, if the argument starts with a '/', the existence of the pathname will be tested ("test -e"). Otherwise, they behave as before, and will be tested by "which". @ No change to LIB_DEPENDS, DEPENDS. What do people think?

The release will not be officially announced until 12:00PM PST, 20 November 1995 (Monday). This release remains unannounced so that the mirror sites will have 2 full days to fetch it over before the hoards of users decend upon them. This is only fair to the mirrors, and it gives better service to the FreeBSD users as well, most of whom will be able to use multiple, simultaneous points for getting the release rather than just the one overloaded one (ftp.freebsd.org) that almost no one can get to. We've tried it that way before, and take my word for it - it doesn't work very well! :-) I must also ask for your cooperation in NOT discussing this release on any of the FreeBSD mailing lists until Monday. I realize that many of you will be grabbing it over the weekend, unable to wait another day, but do at least try to keep the number of people converging on this site to an absolute minimum by not shouting about it from the rooftops, if you can. The longer we can keep this quiet, the more likely it will get mirrored before ftp.cdrom.com is hammered mercilessly into the ground. We, the maintainers of ftp.cdrom.com, will thank you, the mirrors will thank you and, ultimately, the users will thank you. Thank you!

Isn't there a >function to query this? I'm not an X11 guru, but my experimentation shows that if you use the "Weight=555" case that Mosaic finds the depth to be 15 and thus completely fails to display the image. The complete solution would be: change the 'case 16:' to 'case 15:' and leave the existing 'case 16:' (now 'case 15:') code in place. add a new 'case 16:' with my modified lines. in other words, the existing code probably works for depth 15, weight 555. my changes work for depth 16, weight 565. If you use depth 16, weight 555, X converts the depth to 15. Using depth 15, weight 565 should be illegal. If you use depth 15, no weight, X defaults to weight 555. If you use depth 16, no weight, X defaults to weight 565. So, if you use the change I suggest above, I think Mosaic will work for all cases, based on its switch statement for queried depth.

Not having the category names match the dirs was not one of my better ideas.

Full support for reading MIME articles, except message/partial. Some options that will improve things for people reading over slow lines: o Background threading of groups in advance. o Doesn't have to read the active file or group descriptions on startup. o A mechansim for reading the spool directory. o Kill file support. Articles can be - marked read (killed), or - marked with color blobs, based on regular expressions. o Regular expression searching in articles and the newsgroup list. o XPAT searching. o Can use different fonts and colors for quoted text and headers in articles o Lots of action procedures that can be tied to keys. o Supports multiple nntp servers. o Tagging of articles and saving or piping them in order. o Uudecode function. Not perfect, but handles most cases.

It has real threading (like knews which borrowed trn's algorithms), visual thread display (much prettier than knews' own which way too large IMO) and something never really seen elsewhere: true multi-server support. Not being able to switch servers and have different newsrc for each server but real integration of the articles from all servers. You can subscribe from one or more servers for each group. It will also have both regular scoring (à la strn) but also auto-scoring... It also has multiples UI (Athena, Athena3D, 3DLook, Xview, NextStep and MacOS interfaces) all in an Xlib only program. Newsview is actually in alpha (generally 1 or 2 weeks between alphas) and I expect it to go beta in2 or 3 months. I've tried knews; it is much better than Xrn (i.e. it has threads unlike Xrn) but I think the graphical part is poor. -- Ollivier ROBERT -=- The daemon is FREE! -=- roberto@keltia.frmug.fr.net FreeBSD keltia.freenix.fr 2.2-CURRENT #1: Sun Nov 12 16:47:05 MET 1995 From owner-freebsd-ports Sat Nov 18 17:59:40 1995 Return-Path: owner-ports Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.6.12/8.6.6) id RAA02550 for ports-outgoing; Sat, 18 Nov 1995 17:59:40 -0800 Received: from jhome.DIALix.COM (root@jhome.DIALix.COM [192.203.228.69]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.6.12/8.6.6) with ESMTP id RAA02543 ; Sat, 18 Nov 1995 17:59:26 -0800 Received: (from peter@localhost) by jhome.DIALix.COM (8.6.12/8.6.9) id JAA20834; Sun, 19 Nov 1995 09:56:59 +0800 Date: Sun, 19 Nov 1995 09:56:57 +0800 (WST) From: Peter Wemm To: ports@freebsd.org cc: asami@freebsd.org, swallace@freebsd.org Subject: top-3.3 port - a facelift Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-ports@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk I've done a bit of work on the top-3.3 port. I've included the recently posted symbolic wait channel patches, and got rid of the statically configured files "Makefile, top.1, top.local.h" and the scripts/do-configure target. I've replaced that with a .defaults file that the supplied Configure script uses, and some args in the makefile to make it run non-interactive. It also does the usual nice things like compressing the man page if not NOMANCOMPRESS and strips the installed binary etc. There were a few "%" values in the man page which are now fixed by actually running Confiugure proper. No, it doesn't become interactive because of this, because it's an "express" configure. I've also made it compile on -current again (recent include file changes broke "top"). I noticed there's no "MAINTAINER". This is almost a complete rebuild from the ground up of the port.. Should I take over the MAINTAINER status of the port? I think swallace was the last person active with it... Thoughts? -Peter From owner-freebsd-ports Sat Nov 18 18:08:19 1995 Return-Path: owner-ports Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.6.12/8.6.6) id SAA03234 for ports-outgoing; Sat, 18 Nov 1995 18:08:19 -0800 Received: from time.cdrom.com (time.cdrom.com [192.216.222.226]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.6.12/8.6.6) with ESMTP id SAA03226 ; Sat, 18 Nov 1995 18:08:13 -0800 Received: from localhost (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by time.cdrom.com (8.6.12/8.6.9) with SMTP id SAA00426; Sat, 18 Nov 1995 18:07:44 -0800 To: Peter Wemm cc: ports@freebsd.org, asami@freebsd.org, swallace@freebsd.org Subject: Re: top-3.3 port - a facelift In-reply-to: Your message of "Sun, 19 Nov 1995 09:56:57 +0800."
