>Number: 24258 >Category: ports >Synopsis: netsaint port is missing run dependencies and other things >Confidential: no >Severity: serious >Priority: high >Responsible: freebsd-ports >State: open >Quarter: >Keywords: >Date-Required: >Class: change-request >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Thu Jan 11 14:20:01 PST 2001 >Closed-Date: >Last-Modified: >Originator: Andreas Klemm >Release: FreeBSD-4.2 >Organization: FreeBSD >Environment: FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE (not relevant for PR) >Description: a) Netsaint port doesn't work, and floods console with messages, since the plugin binaries are not found. This is, because a RUN_DEPENDENCY to netsaint-plugins port are missing. b) Like in other ports (apache, squid) config files should be installed with the suffix .default and only installed under their final names, if the files don't exist (don't overwrite already present files, not to loose local configuration). pkg-plist should be changed, so that local config files won't be removed c) What about placing the data directory somewhee under /var ... ? >How-To-Repeat: cd netsaint make install cd $PREFIX/etc/rc.d /bin/sh $PREFIX/etc/rc.d/netsaint.sh start [ then watch the flooding messages, because plugins are not found ] >Fix: No time for fix, sorry. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
