Write packages directory to ${PKGREPOSITORY} rather than ${WRKDIR}/pkg Authored by allanjude on Apr 13 2020, 8:16 PM.
Details
Avoid copying each package from the wrkdir to the repository individually This depends on a change to pkg to makes sure not to overwrite the pkg in the repository unless it completes creating the package without error This unlocks pkg files being named with a hash of their content (unpredictable filename), which will allow use of a CDN for pkg downloads Related changes to pkg: https://github.com/freebsd/pkg/pull/1829

Event TimelineComment Actions What happens when not actually building packages but simply installing a port, that is, when you don't have a PKGREPOSITORY? I do not think this change is a good idea. Comment Actions I tend to agree with @mat here, the point here is to respect one of the promise of the ports tree, everything is done as much as possible in workdir and only in last minute replicated to the filesystem |
