These represent problem reports covering all versions including experimental development code and obsolete releases. Bugs can be in one of several states: o - open A problem report has been submitted, no sanity checking performed. a - analyzed The report has been examined by a team member and evaluated. f - feedback The problem has been solved, and the originator has been given a patch or a fix has been committed. The PR remains in this state pending a response from the originator. s - suspended Work on the problem has been postponed. This happens if a timely solution is not possible or is not cost-effective at the present time. The PR continues to exist, though a solution is not being actively sought. If the problem cannot be solved at all, it will be closed, rather than suspended. c - closed A problem report is closed when any changes have been integrated, documented, and tested.

True, but the installed base -current is probably a lot smaller than various stable versions. It is a shame that many ports arrogantly disregard the substantial installed base of "pre-current" when supporting them is often a trivial #ifdef patch. I was annoyed to find that the apache port doesn't even compile on something as recent as 2.2-BETA! Apache is certainly a port of great interest to the "legacy" installed base.

I'm going to comment one last time, then drop it. Your reason for not wanting to use the detection of __FreeBSD__ | __NetBSD__ | __OpenBSD__ is because it's not elegant enough for you. I can agree with the fact that it's not elegant, but it's the one and only solution that works. Your BSD4.4 (or anything else you care to call it) won't be accepted by the general software community because it tosses out OpenBSD, NetBSD, and all older version of any of them. You might get NetBSD and OpenBSD to begin to add it (I don't think you will, but you might) but it lets out all older versions completely. No one writing software today will agree with that, outside of the FreeBSD ports world, and not all of us. This same statement isn't true to the inelegant solution. Not one author writing software today will break his software for a large portion of the world, so that the small portion of us running current stay happy. The base point here is: you can choose either something elegant that's broken, or something inelegant that works. Your choice. ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include any kind of voice or data chuckr@eng.umd.edu | communications topic, C programming, and Unix. 9120 Edmonston Ct #302 | Greenbelt, MD 20770 | I run Journey2 and picnic, both FreeBSD (301) 220-2114 | version 3.0 current -- and great FUN! ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- From owner-freebsd-ports Mon Feb 17 14:30:42 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) id OAA20767 for ports-outgoing; Mon, 17 Feb 1997 14:30:42 -0800 (PST) Received: from fallout.campusview.indiana.edu (fallout.campusview.indiana.edu [149.159.1.1]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id OAA20744 for ; Mon, 17 Feb 1997 14:30:33 -0800 (PST) Received: from localhost (jfieber@localhost) by fallout.campusview.indiana.edu (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id RAA29634; Mon, 17 Feb 1997 17:30:27 -0500 (EST) Date: Mon, 17 Feb 1997 17:30:27 -0500 (EST) From: John Fieber To: Chuck Robey cc: "David O'Brien" , Bruce Evans , cvs-all@freefall.freebsd.org, CVS-committers@freefall.freebsd.org, cvs-user@freefall.freebsd.org, ports@freebsd.org Subject: Re: cvs commit: src/contrib/gcc/config/i386 freebsd-elf.h freebsd.h In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-ports@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk On Mon, 17 Feb 1997, Chuck Robey wrote: > On Mon, 17 Feb 1997, John Fieber wrote: > > > True, but the installed base -current is probably a lot smaller > > than various stable versions.

My only part in this conversation was addressing that it is often a very small line between a freebsd-current only port, and one that works on old versions as well. I *never* expressed *any* opinions, or even *mentioned* the various mechanisims for determining the version of FreeBSD at build time. I don't even really care much what the mechanisim is so long as ports don't fall over on older versions of FreeBSD for insanely trivial quirks like rlim_t in the current apache port. -john From owner-freebsd-ports Mon Feb 17 15:40:48 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) id PAA24756 for ports-outgoing; Mon, 17 Feb 1997 15:40:48 -0800 (PST) Received: from relay.nuxi.com (nuxi.ucdavis.edu [128.120.37.176]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id PAA24738 for ; Mon, 17 Feb 1997 15:40:41 -0800 (PST) Received: from dragon.nuxi.com (reqd-004.ucdavis.edu [128.120.251.124]) by relay.nuxi.com (8.8.4/8.6.12) with ESMTP id PAA07193; Mon, 17 Feb 1997 15:40:26 -0800 (PST) Received: (from obrien@localhost) by dragon.nuxi.com (8.8.5/8.7.3) id XAA24952; Mon, 17 Feb 1997 23:40:18 GMT Message-ID: <19970217154017.AO58053@dragon.nuxi.com> Date: Mon, 17 Feb 1997 15:40:17 -0800 From: obrien@NUXI.com (David O'Brien) To: jfieber@indiana.edu (John Fieber) Cc: chuckr@glue.umd.edu (Chuck Robey), bde@zeta.org.au (Bruce Evans), cvs-all@freefall.freebsd.org, CVS-committers@freefall.freebsd.org, cvs-user@freefall.freebsd.org, ports@freebsd.org Subject: Re: cvs commit: src/contrib/gcc/config/i386 freebsd-elf.h freebsd.h References: X-Mailer: Mutt 0.60_p2-3,5,8-9 Mime-Version: 1.0 X-Disclaimer: Mutt Bites!

Recompile top. top is very system-dependant, and since you're running a SNAP, your first aid should be recompilation. top should probably live in the base system, not in ports.

I think 'i18n-fvwm' or whatever name is more appliciated, but no ports uses 'i18n-' prefix, so I decided to use 'jp-' instead. This ports cannot co-exists x11/fvwm or x11/fvwm2, because its binary name is 'fvwm' or 'fvwm2'. jp-fvwm-2.0.45 uses 'fvwm2' as fvwm binary name, but 'make FVWMNAME=fvwm' makes 'fvwm' as fvwm binary name.

Suns do not...! (At least, not as of SunOS 5.5.1) It is on my list of things that get installed on _every_ system. systat is nice, but the pigs display gives very little useful information compared to top (OTOH, systat can monitor lots of useful things, top can't). I can't actually think of any practical advantage of systat's pigs display :-) I think it would be a functional addition and would not object, although it is bloat in the general sense. ...

Clients are running win3.1[1] with sun pcnfs 5.1. I followed all recommendations in pcnfsd man, but PCs just refuses to mount printdevice. I succeded in mounting it when I've exported spool directory for each client. (/var/spool/mail/client1). But then nothing happend, when I print to captured device on PC it says OK and that's all. Then I put the following line in /etc/pcnfsd.conf printer bw - mail -s 'hi from pcnfsd' root < $FILE and after printing ascii text I got a mail containing a little pieces of original text with some garbage in it. And by the way, is it necessary use 'mount -n', cause without -n I succesfully mounted exported directories on PC. Is it only useful for pcnfsd. And finally when I mount printer with lpd protocol and print to it lpd just dumps core (signal 11) and dies. Any recommendtations? Thanks. -- Alexander P.

With TV you can write a beautiful object-oriented character-mode user interface in a short time. TV is available in C++ and Pascal and is a product of Borland International. It was developed to run on MS-DOS systems, but today it is available for many other platforms (ported by independent programmers). This port is based on the Borland 2.0 version with fixes. Borland has released the source code to the public some time ago (take a look at the COPYRIGHT file in the source package for more informations). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- I placed the library in ftp.cdrom.com:/pub/FreeBSD/incoming/tvision-0.3.tar.gz and the port is ftp.cdrom.com:/pub/FreeBSD/incoming/tvision-0.3.port.tar.gz Please move the source package (tvision-0.3.tar.gz) to freefall.cdrom.com:/pub/FreeBSD/LOCAL_PORTS since i have not a master ftp site to hold it. Note: when the library is dinamically-linked sometimes the resulting executable doesn't run. I don't know why.

Message-ID: X-Secure: never MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-ports@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I have come across a news utility that would be of value to FreeBSD users. The program is called newsx. It is alot like slurp, but it doesn't use the NEWNEWS nntp command to get it's news off of the NNTP server. It is also more automatic than slurp as it will determine what groups to pull based on the sys and news active files. The program will compile cleanly, but there is a bug in it that prevents it from correctly reading the entries from the sys file for the server you want to pull articles off of. It will always say "Group xxx.xxx.xxxx disallowed by SYS." I have gone into sys.c and prevented the program from disallowing groups based on the SYS file by changing around the if statements. However if you have multiple news servers and only want to pull a few particular groups from each of them, you would have to fix the broken code in sys.c. Other than that problem, this program seems to work very well. The sources can be found at http://home.sn.no/home/egilk . Hopefully someone else might find this program worthwhile.

A lot of Perl programmers complained at the time this was wrong and I'm complaining again. The only argument I heard in favour of the current scheme was that if some hacker was looking for a package to do something, say web related, then they'd probably go and look in www. This is so totally braindead words fail me. If you program in Perl a you *KNOW* what package you want. I just grabbed a program from work, realised I didn't have a common package installed at home and thought Ok, get it from ports but I'm buggered if I know of a way of finding it in ports other than looking in each bloody directory! It would be so much easier if "real" perl programmers could go to /usr/ports/lang/perl_cpan/ and see immediately if the package they want is part of the ports collection or not. The current scheme just isn't right and any "real" perl programmer would agree (I think :-) How exactly are we going to classify perl packages that don't fit into our current categories anyway? The package I wanted turned out to not be in ports (I did end up searching every directory!). If I want to add it (Date::Parse) where do I put it? Footnote: A "real" perl programmer is someone who writes perl5 and treats it as a "true" programming language rather than a scripting language. Perl5 is *NOT* perl4 with bug fixes and enhancements, it's a totally different beast altogether.

A "what it is" classification dictates this approach. A "what it is used for" calssification dictates what we have now. As I've described in the past, the latter can never be done completely, and the more complete it is, the more unworkable it becomes until it is eventually crush under its own weight. The only thing worse is a classification system with an ambiguous policy and/or practice. Predictability is a very important component of usability (with the standard exception of video games). -john From owner-freebsd-ports Sat Feb 22 11:25:30 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) id LAA04078 for ports-outgoing; Sat, 22 Feb 1997 11:25:30 -0800 (PST) Received: from fallout.campusview.indiana.edu (fallout.campusview.indiana.edu [149.159.1.1]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id LAA04068 for ; Sat, 22 Feb 1997 11:25:26 -0800 (PST) Received: from localhost (jfieber@localhost) by fallout.campusview.indiana.edu (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id OAA16717 for ; Sat, 22 Feb 1997 14:24:55 -0500 (EST) Date: Sat, 22 Feb 1997 14:24:55 -0500 (EST) From: John Fieber To: ports@freebsd.org Subject: version dependent PLIST Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-ports@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I was just working on some tweaks to my SP port to ensure that it compiles on old (2.1.x) systems as well as current. One part of the SP port for 2.2+ systems is a shared library, but on 2.1.x systems, only the static library is built (linking against the shared just produces core dumps). My question is how to deal with a system version dependent PLIST. Ideas from more experienced porters? -john
