Hi:
This email explains what I had to do to modify the v7.0.0 port so that it
would install v7.0.2. I am running 4.0-STABLE. My make command was: "make
-DWITH_TCL -DWITH_JDBC".
1) Makefile: I changed "7.0.0" to "7.0.2"
2) Makefile: I commented out the line:
"${INSTALL_MAN} ${WRKDIR}/${DISTNAME}/doc/*ps.gz ${PREFIX}/share/doc/
pgsql"
because v7.0.2 has no .ps.gz files (see #3)
3) PLIST.doc: I deleted all lines for .ps.gz documents:
share/doc/pgsql/admin.ps.gz
share/doc/pgsql/adminA4.ps.gz
share/doc/pgsql/programmer.ps.gz
share/doc/pgsql/programmerA4.ps.gz
share/doc/pgsql/tutorial.ps.gz
share/doc/pgsql/tutorialA4.ps.gz
share/doc/pgsql/user.ps.gz
share/doc/pgsql/userA4.ps.gz
I assume that ".ps" indicates postscript files and that that form of
documentation has been discontinued.
4) I changed the MD5 file to include the correct file names and
checksums by commenting out the lines that were there and adding the
following lines:
"MD5 (postgresql/postgresql-7.0.2.base.tar.gz) =
871d23b85d9a3599a7ed75dfc7da7ba7"
"MD5 (postgresql/postgresql-7.0.2.docs.tar.gz) =
efac1f87463f252e54d72b256885b883"
"MD5 (postgresql/postgresql-7.0.2.support.tar.gz) =
c21180a6485d85785c8e69f0cbff05dd"
"MD5 (postgresql/postgresql-7.0.2.tar.gz) =
fc512e38394256e2749299fdd69a937e"
"MD5 (postgresql/postgresql-7.0.2.test.tar.gz) =
3443b3d83194c396f20aee2adc6f93bf"
(NOTE I added quote marks, they should not appear in the file.)
5) patch-bb: I changed the following line:
"CFLAGS+= -I$(SRCDIR)/include -I$(SRCDIR)/backend"
- to -
"CFLAGS+= -I$(SRCDIR)/include -I$(SRCDIR)/backend $(PGSQL_INCLUDES)"
6) ** CAUTION **
First, I am not the port maintainer, so I can't say that these changes are
correct or that they are the only changes. I was not able to obtain a list
of file changes (adds, deletes), so I cannot say that the file lists in the
PLIST files are correct. I am not very familiar with ports or Postgresql
and I have done limited testing. ANY USE OF THE ABOVE CHANGES IS AT YOUR
OWN RISK! I would *strongly* suggest that you install v7.0.0 or wait for
the port maintainer to officially upgrade the port (about three weeks from
now) if at all possible.
7) ERRATA
The next time the port is updated, the following should be taken into
account:
Tcl/Tk is now at version 8.3.1.
Java 2 (JDK 1.2.2) ports are now available on FreeBSD. The
current port only allows for use with JDK 1.1.8.
John
