I'm copying this message to -stable where it is also appropriate. Alfred just MFC'ed some changes to the USB stack (renaming some members of structures provided by usb.h). This breaks building the port devel/libusb (recently bumped to version 0.1.5). I am aware of this. Alfred is going to bump __FreeBSD_version for both -stable and -current (no ETA given) so that either the libusb code or make(1) can be trained to DTRT. I'm aware of the breakage at this point in compiling this port and will do my best to rectify things quickly. -Jr ------- start of forwarded message ------- From: Alfred Perlstein <bright@mu.org> Subject: Re: libusb build broken due to structure member renaming To: John Reynolds <johnjen@reynoldsnet.org> Date: Sun, 24 Feb 2002 14:43:46 -0800 * John Reynolds <johnjen@reynoldsnet.org> [020224 14:33] wrote: > > hello, I've got a -current-related question to ask. akbeech forwarded me > his build log when trying to build the "linux" user-land libusb from the > port which I maintain (it is below).

I didn't bump FreeBSD_version specifically for it although I guess I will be now. In both -current and -stable. -Alfred ------- end of forwarded message ------- -- John & Jennifer Reynolds johnjen@reynoldsnet.org http://www.reynoldsnet.org/ Senior CAD Engineer, WCCG, Intel Corporation jreynold@sedona.ch.intel.com Running FreeBSD since 2.1.5-RELEASE.
