I thought the directory structure is supposed to be created using mtree files? The ports collection runs 'mtree' before running the actual 'make install' in the port's working directory; as for pkg_add and generated packages, they should include a @mtree directive in +CONTENTS and an +MTREE_DIRS file... > >So my question is, does the 5.2.1 version of pkg_create contain a bug or > >is pkg_create really just very limited? >=20 > Try it with bsdtar as the system default tar > and see if that behaves any differently. > (WITH_BSDTAR=3D1 in /etc/make.conf). Errr, that's all fine and good, but how about people who still use GNU tar for various reasons, such as sticking with RELENG_4? :) Or do you have any plans for MFC'ing libarchive/bsdtar into RELENG_4 (please please please!), even without making it the default? =20 G'luck, Peter --=20 Peter Pentchev roam@ringlet.net roam@sbnd.net roam@FreeBSD.org PGP key: http://people.FreeBSD.org/~roam/roam.key.asc Key fingerprint FDBA FD79 C26F 3C51 C95E DF9E ED18 B68D 1619 4553 =2Esiht ekil ti gnidaer eb d'uoy ,werbeH ni erew ecnetnes siht fI --CblX+4bnyfN0pR09 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFAtasS7Ri2jRYZRVMRAuU5AJ9WZ6P1SSHbXs2VYE4g/niD1x3ABwCglcIw mVoc513qszilstZ8Jzd98P8= =gNcG -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --CblX+4bnyfN0pR09--
