On both hosts duration of the build was ~1 minute. Memory usage in top during build look same like without build.

I tried to rebuild the ports updated by this patch and I have trouble supplying enough virtual memory to build babl.

Related, mostly about documenting this: https://lists.freebsd.org/archives/freebsd-current/2024-May/005969.html

Late to the party, but I am not sure this is the right way(tm).

Done, https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=245505

I have tried this and indeed it now allows me to enable the webcam. However, it the picture is flashed over with a green background few times a second and it produces the following (possibly unrelated) error message one the console:

We may be missing a DEPEND line on libv4l. Poudriere testport should shake that out, when someone gets a chance.

Thanks, yes, reverting it locally fixed that for me. Shouldn't makefs become part of the bootstrap tools then? Requiring 12.1 is a bit tight...

I tried to build SVN head (r353191) today on 12.0-RELEASE-p10 amd64 and I am getting an error when trying to build CDs:

Thank you @cy for taking care of this!

Yes, this builds ok on powerpc64 when compiling with GCC8. So you should set USES=compiler:c11.

All issues fixed

Use tag name as suggested by cy@

Merged changes to the ports tree in the meantime

Make portlint happy

This is a patch in https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=208098 to fix the problems. Feedback welcome.

Great, thanks!

mdoc(7) nitpicking :(

Hmm, that's a bug. We should remove it (or at least make it ENOSYS).

Are there any architecture-specific reasons for removal? (Something that riscv and aarch64 cannot do but amd64 and i386 can)?

Can you explain how?

A bit late to the party, but I got bitten by this today - where this should be documented? sbrk(2) manpage?

We're also working to make FreeBSD more nodejs friendly. Our goal is to bring electron.io and Atom to FreeBSD.

Mixing packages from the portstree and npm is, in general, not a good idea, because different projects could require different version of the same package. Our approach is to bring in the portstree only the built/native components and somehow tell npm to use those, instead of rebuild, to minimize potential conflicts.

Is asset generation working during the build stage? If yes, I think we can get rid of most node_modules - most importantly we can discard node-sass.

node-gyp is brought by npm, at least in some version (often a newer version of node-gyp is required by the modules).

How does node-gyp fit into this picture? This is the component that should pull in gmake dependency.

Are you building the port? The optional gem, bootsnap, was removed in the port's Gemfile patch.

Today with a fresh mastodon master I got the following (not from the port)

Adding -DBOOT_BIOSDISK_DEBUG does not seem to influence gptzfsboot very much (I am even getting the same binary back).

It seems to me that this change cause
