This file contains major changes to ports and the ports infrastructure. Intended audience are ports committers, maintainers and other developers. User oriented changes should be submitted for inclusion in the release notes and/or placed into UPDATING. All ports committers are allowed to commit to this file. +20171020: +AUTHOR: ak@FreeBSD.org + + The USES=fmake has been removed. It was created to help migration from + old FreeBSD make (pmake) and there are no more users of it left in + the ports tree. + 20171012: AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org Remove WANT_GNOME and HAVE_GNOME, they were in disuse, and made useless by options. 20171011: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org New BINARY_ALIAS variable has been added, when defined it will create symlinks of some given binaries in a directory which will be prepended to the PATH. The syntax is the following: BINARY_ALIAS= target1=source1 target2=source2 For example to have a "swig" binary in the path which will be pointing at swig3.0 and a "sed" pointing at GNU sed: gsed BINARY_ALIAS= swig=swig3.0 sed=gsed 20170625: AUTHOR: kde@FreeBSD.org The default generator for USES=cmake ports has been switched to ninja. Previously it was possible to opt-in to using ninja instead of make(1) by setting CMAKE_NINJA, now ports need to opt-out. Ports that do not build with ninja must switch from USES=cmake: to USES=cmake:,noninja 20170417: AUTHOR: kwm@FreeBSD.org New USES: meson, to handle properly the meson building system. 20170313: AUTHOR: tijl@FreeBSD.org HTTPS certificates are now verified when "make makesum" fetches distfiles. If this fails make sure you have a CA certificate bundle installed such as security/ca_root_nss. If it still fails and there are other HTTPS sites with a valid certificate consider removing the site from MASTER_SITES. If the site cannot be removed you can disable certificate verification by adding the following line to the port Makefile: FETCH_ENV= SSL_NO_VERIFY_PEER=1 SSL_NO_VERIFY_HOSTNAME=1 20170218: AUTHOR: kde@FreeBSD.org * Qt 4's binaries have been moved to lib/qt4/bin to match what is already done to Qt 5's binaries. Since these binaries are no longer in ${LOCALBASE}/bin, they also do not have the -qt4 suffix in their names any more. * Consequently, there are no Qt 4 or Qt 5 binaries in the default $PATH, and misc/qtchooser is now used to select the actual Qt binaries. In other words, calling "qmake" or "moc" now goes through qtchooser, which prefers Qt 5 binaries by default. The ports framework handles this automatically. The UPDATING entry covers this in more detail. * Qt 5.7.1 requires a C++11-capable compiler to be used. qmake and CMake pass the appropriate flags to the compiler (such as -std=c++11) automatically, but if your port fetches Qt's build flags via pkg-config (which can be the case for autotools-based ports), you might need to take care of this manually by setting USE_CXXSTD in your Makefile: USE_CXXSTD= c++11 20160116: AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org A new EXTRA_PATCH_TREE has been added. Points to a directory hierarchy with the same layout as the ports tree, where local patches can be found. This allows a third party to keep their patches in some other source control system if needed. For example, if you have EXTRA_PATCH_TREE=/patches, when building lang/perl5.24, any file named patch-* in /patches/lang/perl5.24/ will be used to patch the Perl distribution. 20160116: AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org During extraction of the do-patch target into a separate script, the "-d PATCH_WRKSRC" had to be removed from the PATCH_ARGS and PATCH_DIST_ARGS variables. If using these variables directly, you will need to adapt the Makefile. For example: ${PATCH} ${PATCH_ARGS} < ${FILESDIR}/extra-patch needs to be changed to: ${PATCH} -d ${PATCH_WRKSRC} ${PATCH_ARGS} < ${FILESDIR}/extra-patch 20161218: AUTHOR: tcberner@FreeBSD.org QT_PREFIX has been dropped, in favour of using PREFIX directly. 20160911: AUTHOR: amdmi3@FreeBSD.org Support has been added for complete set of Creative Commons licenses CC-(BY|BY-ND|BY-NC|BY-NC-ND|BY-NC-SA|BY-SA)-(1.0|2.0|2.5|3.0|4.0) 20160909: AUTHOR: amdmi3@FreeBSD.org Verbose build logs are now preferred and enabled by default for cmake, ninja and GNU configure. Ports which still produce quiet build logs (hiding actual commands) are strongly advised to switch to verbose logs. 20160908: AUTHOR: amdmi3@FreeBSD.org Support has been added for NONE license, use it when the port doesn't have cleanly defined licensing terms. Note that without clean license allowing you to use and distribute the code it would be be illegal to do so in many jurisdictions, so for ports with NONE license no distfiles or packages are distributed. 20160824: AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org To complete the USE_GITHUB framework, a GH_SUBDIR variable has been added. It automatically moves a secondary distfile to the right place inside WRKSRC. It also extends the GH_TUPLE variable to make it as easy to use as possible. Before: GH_TUPLE= Regaddi:Chart.js:f13f99b:chart_js \ FVANCOP:ChartNew.js:77e7f87:chartnew_js post-extract: @${RMDIR} ${WRKSRC}/database ${WRKSRC}/3rd/Chart.js @${MV} ${WRKSRC_database} ${WRKSRC}/database @${MV} ${WRKSRC_chart_js} ${WRKSRC}/3rd/Chart.js After: GH_TUPLE= Regaddi:Chart.js:f13f99b:chart_js/3rd/Chart.js \ FVANCOP:ChartNew.js:77e7f87:chartnew_js/3rd/ChartNew.js It also works if not using GH_TUPLE but the regular GH_ACCOUNT/PROJECT/TAGNAME variables: GH_SUBDIR= 3rd/Chart.js:chart_js 3rd/ChartNew.js:chartnew_js 20160824: AUTHOR: kde@FreeBSD.org A new USES file has been introduced: USES=kde:4, which replaces the old bsd.kde4.mk file in preparation for upcoming KDE Frameworks and Plasma5 ports. Ports depending on KDE4 have to switch from USE_KDE4=foo bar to USES=kde:4 USE_KDE=foo bar and make sure to switch from using KDE4_PREFIX to the new name KDE_PREFIX in the Makefiles as well as plists. 20160821: AUTHOR: kde@FreeBSD.org A new USES file has been introduced: USES=grantlee:[4,5], which introduces a LIB_DEPENDS on either devel/grantlee (Qt4) or devel/grantlee5 (Qt5). Uses/grantlee.mk also exports the GRANTLEE_VERSION variable to users, and the GRANTLEE_VERSION_FULL and GRANTLEE_VERSION_SHORT pkg-plist substitutions. 20160817: AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org This adds the possibility to use regular expressions for the makeplist stage of the PLIST_SUB life. From time to time, the values are too generic, and they get in the way of other stuff. This adds the possibility to have a VAR_regex=regex that will be used instead of the VAR=string to search for possible replacements. For example, in lang/perl5*, there is PERL_ARCH=mach, which will get replaced in paths if a file is called, say "machine", will end up being "%%PERL_ARCH%%ine". Adding PERL_ARCH_regex="\bmach\b" will ensure only full words are replaced, so machine will stay machine, but "lib/mach/foo "will still be replaced by "lib/%%PERL_ARCH%%/foo". 20160803: AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org Every PHP (or Zend) extension now installs its own .ini file in /usr/local/etc/php. A PHP extension will be automatically activated when installed. The order into which extensions are loaded is automatically guessed. In some very rare cases, the guess will be wrong, and PHP_MOD_PRIO will need to be set. Refer to the USES=php section of the Porter's Handbook for more information. 20160628: AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org USEify USES=php. The following variables have been folded into arguments: - USE_PHPIZE -> USES=php:phpize - USE_PHPEXT -> USES=php:ext - USE_ZENDEXT -> USES=php:zend - USE_PHP_BUILD -> USES=php:build - WANT_PHP_CLI -> USES=php:cli - WANT_PHP_CGI -> USES=php:cgi - WANT_PHP_MOD -> USES=php:mod - WANT_PHP_WEB -> USES=php:web - WANT_PHP_EMB -> USES=php:embed 20160627: AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org USE_OPENSSL has been replaced by USES=ssl. 20160625: AUTHOR: adamw@FreeBSD.org A new ${opt}_CMAKE_BOOL OPTIONS helper has been added. Instead of: FOO_CMAKE_ON= -DWITH_FOO:BOOL=YES -DWITH_BAR:BOOL=YES FOO_CMAKE_OFF= -DWITH_FOO:BOOL=NO -DWITH_BAR:BOOL=NO you can use this shortcut: SOMEOPT_CMAKE_BOOL= WITH_FOO WITH_BAR 20160525: AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org A new stage-qa test has been added, it reports all shared libraries dependencies that are not part of the port list of dependencies. It help finds what is called proxy dependencies. A is needed by B, and B is needed by C. If C also needs A, then it needs to be registered, and this check will tell you to do so. Right now, it is only reporting the problems, but if you add PROXYDEPS_FATAL=yes to your environment, it will give an error and will force you to fix the dependencies. 20160525: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org New keyword @xmlcatmgr has been added, to handle the XML and SGML catalog maintainance, in order to improve consistency and correctness of the generation of the catalog. If the catalog file has an extension being '.xml' it will be automatically added to the XML catalog, otherwise it will be added to the SGML catalog 20160512: AUTHOR: emaste@FreeBSD.org "make makesum" now writes the current timestamp to distinfo when it is run. This is done to support development and prototyping efforts for reproducible package builds, which require some concept of a "last updated" time. The TIMESTAMP can currently be ignored for ports that have no distinfo, and for updates done without using "make makesum." 20160428 AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org USE_RUBYGEMS has been replaced by USES=gem. 20160426: AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org USE_MYSQL and USE_BDB have been replaced by USES=mysql and USES=bdb. WANT_BDB_VER=XX should be replaced by USES=bdb:XX. 20160414: AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org USE_RC_SUBR=yes has not done anything for a long time, it will now give an error. 20160413: AUTHOR: jbeich@FreeBSD.org Introducing CONFIGURE_OUTSOURCE. It changes HAS_CONFIGURE and GNU_CONFIGURE by invoking configure, build and install stage outside of source tree e.g., $ mkdir ../.build $ cd ../.build $ ${OLDPWD}/configure $ gmake $ gmake install 20160402: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org Adding ${PORTSDIR} in dependency lines is no longer necessary meaning RUN_DEPENDS= foo:${PORTSDIR}/bar/foo can now be written RUN_DEPENDS= foo:bar/foo if the path after ':' is not absolute the framework will automatically prepend ${PORTSDIR}/ 20160301: AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org Introduce GH_TUPLE. GH_TUPLE allows one to put all the GH_{ACCOUNT,PROJECT,TAGNAME} into one variable, in the form of account:project:tagname[:group]. It is helpful when there are many submodules. 20160207: AUTHOR: kwm@FreeBSD.org The GNOME and MATE framework activation changed. To use the frameworks now either gnome or mate needs to be added USES. The usage of USE_GNOME, USE_MATE, INSTALLS_ICONS and for example GLIB_SCHEMAS stays the same. Like with USES, the use of USE_GNOME and so after bsd.port.pre.mk is now forbidden. 20160112: AUTHOR: amdmi3@FreeBSD.org Support has been added for "or later" variants of GNU licenses (e.g. LICENSE=GPLv2+) and for Public Domain (LICENSE=PD). Complete list of new LICENSE values: AGPLv3+ GPLv1+ GPLv2+ GPLv3+ GPLv3RLE+ LGPL20+ LGPL21+ LGPL3+ PD 20160110: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org USE_FIREBIRD and USE_SQLITE has been replaced by USES=firebird and USES=sqlite 20151105: AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org Change the meaning of NO_WRKSUBDIR to force a WRKDIR != WRKSRC. Right now, NO_WRKSUBDIR means that the extraction does not produce a subdirectory, and that everything goes straight into WRKDIR. It is problematic, because during the build of a port, quite a few files are created in there, and then, a stage directory, where everything is installed, and then a pkg directory where the package is created, and those often conflict, or get in the way, of the building process. With this, NO_WRKSUBDIR will extract the distfiles directly into WRKSRC instead of WRKDIR. In this case, WRKSRC is artificial and is based on PKGNAME and not DISTNAME, mitigate conflicts with rc files. 20151022: AUTHOR: amdmi3@FreeBSD.org Improved support for USES=shebangfix - We now support multiple values for *_OLD_CMD - We replace more variants by default (/bin/${lang}, /usr/bin/${lang}, /usr/bin/env ${lang}). - shebangfix now also supports lua if USES=lua is specified - Pattern matching has been improved: we now only match whole worlds, e.g. "/usr/bin/perl5.005" is no longer erroneously replaced with "${perl_CMD}5.005". Note that *_OLD_CMD entries which contain spaces must now be quoted. 20150928: AUTHOR: amdmi3@FreeBSD.org Implemented complete support for test target. You can now `make test' on any port to run test sequence, no-op by default. If a port defines TEST_TARGET, it'll run sub-make with specified target, usually `check' or `test', useful if upstream supports that. The port may instead define custom do-test target, as well as usual satellite targets: {pre,do,post}-test, {pre,do,post}-test-OPT, {pre,do,post}-test-OPT-off `make test' builds and stages port first, so test may use both WRKDIR and STAGEDIR, and both BUILD and RUN depends are available for test target. Additionally, TEST_DEPENDS is now properly supported and may be used to define additional depends specifically for testing. Framework may define default tests for specific cases. For instance, perl5.mk and cran.mk provide default test target on their own. 20150926: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org @sample now accept arguments, so it can now be used the following way: @sample afile.sample or @sample path/to/example etc/target 20150926: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org New keywords are supported in pkg since 1.5.x: @preexec : execute the during pre-install scripts @postexec : execute the during post-install scripts @preunexec : execute the during pre-deinstall scripts @postunexec : execute the during post-deinstall scripts @exec does not specify when if should be executed and is now considered as deprecated. 20150914: AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org Introducing the %%PERL5_MAN1%% PLIST_SUB entry, as Perl now installs man1 pages in the same prefix as man3 pages. 20150828: AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org _VARS and _VARS_OFF have been introduced to allow for a generic way to set/append to variables. OPT1_VARS= foo=bar baz+=bam will set FOO to bar and append bam to BAZ if OPT1 is enabled. _VARS_OFF works the same way, if the option is disabled. 20150818: AUTHOR: kde@FreeBSD.org The CMAKE_ENV option has been deprecated. It no longer has any effect, and the CONFIGURE_ENV variable should be used instead. 20150818: AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org _IMPLIES and _PREVENTS have been introduced to register dependency, or conflicts between options. OPTIONS_DEFINE= FOO BAR BAZ FOO_IMPLIES= BAR BAZ_PREVENTS= BAR If the FOO option is selected, the BAR option will be enabled as well. If the BAZ and BAR options are both enabled, an error will be given. 20150817: AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org UNIQUENAME and LATEST_LINK have been removed. LATEST_LINK was only used by ports-mgmt/pkg{,-devel} and PKGBASE can be used in its stead. UNIQUENAME was used by USE_LDCONFIG where it was not unique enough, and as old compat shims with options. 20150716: AUTHOR: kwm@FreeBSD.org USE_GHOSTSCRIPT was replaced by USES=ghostscript. The ghostscript USES accepts version, build, run, nox11 and for version 9 the agpl argument. If no version is specified, the default 9 for GHOSTSCRIPT_DEFAULT is honored. 20150701: AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org Make option target helpers have been added, it allows replacing: .include post-patch: ${REINPLACE_CMD} -e 's|/usr/local|${LOCALBASE}|g' \ ${WRKSRC}/Configure ${WRKSRC}/hints/freebsd.sh .if ${PORT_OPTIONS:MPTHREAD} ${REINPLACE_CMD} -e 's|%%PTHREAD_LIBS%%|-lpthread|g;' \ ${WRKSRC}/hints/freebsd.sh .else ${REINPLACE_CMD} -e 's|%%PTHREAD_LIBS%%||g;' \ ${WRKSRC}/hints/freebsd.sh .endif with: post-patch: ${REINPLACE_CMD} -e 's|/usr/local|${LOCALBASE}|g' \ ${WRKSRC}/Configure ${WRKSRC}/hints/freebsd.sh post-patch-PTHREAD-on: ${REINPLACE_CMD} -e 's|%%PTHREAD_LIBS%%|-lpthread|g;' \ ${WRKSRC}/hints/freebsd.sh post-patch-PTHREAD-off: ${REINPLACE_CMD} -e 's|%%PTHREAD_LIBS%%||g;' \ ${WRKSRC}/hints/freebsd.sh 20150622: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org Remove USE_RCORDER, USE_RC_SUBR has been modified to support PREFIX=/usr automatically 20150529: AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org Extend the multiple distfiles USE_GITHUB framework by allowing it to fetch only additional distfiles, but not the main one. Set USE_GITHUB=nodefault and use the GH_* variables with groups as usual. 20150528: AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org USE_GITHUB can now fetch multiple distfiles. It uses a grouping feature similar to MASTER_SITES/PATCH_SITES. Some helpful variables are provided: WRKSRC_ for putting things in the right place in post-extract, and DISTNAME_/DISTFILE_ for use with EXTRACT_ONLY. A simple example: PORTNAME= bar PORTVERSION= 1.0 USE_GITHUB= yes GH_ACCOUNT= foo GH_PROJECT= ${PORTNAME}-images:images post-extract: @${MV} ${WRKSRC_images} ${WRKSRC}/images It will fetch those two distfiles: $ make fetch-urlall-list https://codeload.github.com/foo/bar/tar.gz/1.0?dummy=/foo-bar-1.0_GH0.tar.gz https://codeload.github.com/foo/bar-images/tar.gz/1.0?dummy=/foo-bar-images-1.0-1.0.tar.gz It will then extract them to ${WRKDIR} in their respectives directories. 20150526: AUTHOR: antoine@FreeBSD.org PYTHON_REL has been switched from a 3 digits number to a 4 digits number to handle python 2.7.10. Ports checking for python 2.7.9 should compare PYTHON_REL against 2709 and ports checking for python 2.7.10 should compare PYTHON_REL against 2710. 20150521: AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org GH_COMMIT support has been removed, see the 20150319 for more informations. 20150419: AUTHOR: tijl@FreeBSD.org USE_AUTOTOOLS has been deprecated. It can be replaced with USES=autoreconf and GNU_CONFIGURE=yes. Support for USE_AUTOTOOLS=libtoolize has been removed. It can be replaced with "USES=autoreconf libtool". 20150409: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org Add a new USES=gnustep to handle the GNUstep ports. Now the dependencies on GNUstep libraries is done via the regular LIB_DEPENDS USE_GNUSTEP is now a macro that accept many arguments: back, build, gui, back Depending on the feature needed for a given port Reuse USES=objc to avoid duplicating code 20150408: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org Add a new USES=waf to handle the waf building system, allowing to factorise code. Plug waf into MAKE_CMD and CONFIGURE_CMD so the regular defined targets can be reused. Always define _MAKE_JOBS so that when bsd.port.mk will stop overwritting _MAKE_JOBS when parallel jobs are disabled we can enforce -j1 (which is needed to really disable parallelisation with waf WAF_CMD has been created to allow one to override the location of the waf script relatively to WRKSRC CONFIGURE_TARGET is by default defined to "configure" ALL_TARGET is by default defined to "build" INSTALL_TARGET is by default defined to "install" USES=waf is by default stagedir safe 20150407: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org USE_XZ and USE_BZIP2 are not supported anymore, they have been replaced by USES=tar:bzip2 and tar:xz 20150328: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org New "metaport" USES to take care of predefining correctly the needed macros as expected by meta ports. 20150323: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org Remove "@fc" and "@fontsdir". All fonts should always use @fcfontsdir which Properly takes care of the fonts.dir and fonts.scale cache files as well as ensure to properly update the fontconfig cache New "fonts" USES. It defines the default variables needed for fonts and also takes care of the run time dependencies 20150326: AUTHOR: bdrewery@FreeBSD.org PTHREAD_CFLAGS and PTHREAD_LIBS have been removed. Please see entry 20130207 for more information. 20150319: AUTHOR: bdrewery@FreeBSD.org MASTER_SITE GHR (GITHUB_RELEASE) has been removed. The same functionality can be achieved with just USE_GITHUB/GH_ACCOUNT/GH_PROJECT. GH_TAGNAME defaults to DISTVERSION. If the tag needs to be adjusted then change GH_TAGNAME. No GH_COMMIT is needed. 20150319: AUTHOR: bdrewery@FreeBSD.org USE_GITHUB has been updated to make GH_COMMIT optional. Using this new scheme allows only setting the _tag_ or _commit hash_ in GH_TAGNAME and not having to know the hash for a tag. This scheme will download a tarball that has a different checksum than before due to a changed directory name for extraction. GH_TAGNAME can now be any length of the hash as long as it is unique. There is no longer a 7-character requirement. The following MASTER_SITES are provided to retain the old checksum and directory structure (that require GH_COMMIT): GH -> GHL GITHUB -> GITHUB_LEGACY 20150305: AUTHOR: olivierd@FreeBSD.org Dependencies on the Xfce ports have been migrated to USES. Instead of USE_XFCE= configenv, you should use USES= xfce. 20150224: AUTHOR: makc@FreeBSD.org New USE_QT4 component has been introduced to reduce buildtime dependencies for Qt 4 ports that use localization support. Instead of USE_QT4=linguist you should now use USE_QT4=linguisttools_build. Conversion of existing ports may require USE_QT4 adjustment for missing components. 20141217: AFFECTS: users of lang/perl5.* AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org Perl now links libperl.so with all .so it builds. The stage-qa checks have been extended to check that libperl.so is in fact linked with .so in SITE_ARCH and errors out if none of the .so build by a port are linked with it. It also checks that the rpath and runpath elf attributes are present. 20141130: AUTHOR: tijl@FreeBSD.org The devel/gettext port has been split up in devel/gettext-runtime which contains runtime libraries such as libintl, and devel/gettext-tools which contains build tools such as msgfmt. You can use USES=gettext-runtime to set a LIB/BUILD/RUN_DEPENDS on devel/gettext-runtime and USES=gettext-tools to set a BUILD/RUN_DEPENDS on devel/gettext-tools. USES=gettext is now the same as "USES=gettext-runtime gettext-tools", meaning a LIB_DEPENDS on devel/gettext-runtime and a BUILD_DEPENDS on devel/gettext-tools. 20141126: AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org The way Perl modules are installed has changed. Before, we had site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18 site_perl/perl_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18/mach perl_man3 : lib/perl5/5.18/man/man3 Now we have : site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl site_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/mach/5.18 perl_man3 : lib/perl5/site_perl/man/man3 Modules without any .so will be installed at the same place regardless of the Perl version, minimizing the upgrade when the major Perl version is changed. It uses a version dependent directory for modules with compiled bits. As PERL_ARCH is no longer needed in plists, it has been removed from PLIST_SUB. The USE_PERL5=fixpacklist keyword is removed, the .packlist file is now always removed, as is perllocal.pod. The old site_perl and site_perl/arch directories have been kept in the default Perl @INC for all Perl ports, and will be phased out as these old Perl versions expire. 20141122: AUTHOR: crees@FreeBSD.org Dependencies on the PostgreSQL ports have been migrated to USES. Instead of USE_PGSQL, please use USES=pgsql instead. USE_PGSQL=yes becomes USES=pgsql WANT_PGSQL_VER=91+ becomes USES=pgsql:9.1+ USE_PGSQL=server becomes USES=pgsql and WANT_PGSQL=server 20141118: AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org To ease future work, a new SITE_ARCH variable and PLIST_SUB replacement containing SITE_PERL/PERL_ARCH has been added. 20141102: AUTHOR: bdrewery@FreeBSD.org SSP is now default. This can be disabled with WITHOUT_SSP. SSP_CFLAGS defaults to -fstack-protector. SSP will be used on all amd64 releases. It will only be used on i386 releases over 10.0. 20141007: AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org The @cwd [path] construct in plist files is deprecated. Instead of adding those lines to the plist: @cwd / etc/rc.d/foo var/db/bar @cwd /some @exec mkdir -p %D/nested/dir add this: /etc/rc.d/foo /var/db/bar @exec mkdir -p /some/nested/dir 20141002: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org New BUNDLE_LIBS knobs to allow a port to tell pkg(8) not to compute provided libraries, this is to be used when a port bundles libraries it doesn't want to expose to other ports. 20141001: AUTHOR: tijl@FreeBSD.org Support for autoconf213, autoheader213, aclocal14 and automake14 has been removed from USE_AUTOTOOLS. 20140930: AUTHOR: bdrewery@FreeBSD.org Building ports in a chroot or jail have always required a particular environment be setup. This was not clear though and the ports framework did not enforce it. These requirements are: 1. Either a SRC_BASE/sys/sys/param.h, or /usr/include/sys/param.h be present with the __FreeBSD_version_ number of the target system, or OSVERSION be set in the environment. Lack of these would fallback on kern.osreldate before, which is no longer the case. 2. UNAME_r,UNAME_v,UNAME_s all must be set for the target system. Not having these values in sync will now cause the build to error until it is resolved. Setting these in the environment can be done via your own wrapper scripts, or /etc/login.conf (along with cap_mkdb /etc/login.conf) or via /etc/make.conf using appropriate values. Note that OSVERSION is redundant if a proper param.h is in the environment: OSVERSION+= 1100036 UNAME_ENV+= OSVERSION=${OSVERSION} UNAME_ENV+= UNAME_s=FreeBSD UNAME_ENV+= UNAME_r=11.0-CURRENT UNAME_ENV+= UNAME_v="${UNAME_s} ${UNAME_r}" .MAKEFLAGS: ${UNAME_ENV} MAKE_ENV+= ${UNAME_ENV} CONFIGURE_ENV+= ${UNAME_ENV} SCRIPTS_ENV+= ${UNAME_ENV} 20140922: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org pkg(8) now handles the directories under PREFIX automatically, and will automatically remove them as needed. A new @dir keyword has been introduced to handle directories specially: - directories with special owner, group, or permissions (access mode) - empty directories - directories out of PREFIX As a consequence @dirrm and @dirrmtry are now considered deprecated. Credentials can now be passed in arguments to keywords (the empty keyword means "regular file"): @(user,group,mode) file1 @dir(user,group,mode) directory_with_special_owner_or_mode PLIST_DIRSTRY is now considered deprecated, use PLIST_DIRS instead. 20140917: AUTHOR: tijl@FreeBSD.org Support for USE_AUTOTOOLS=libtool, USE_GNOME=ltasneededhack, USE_GNOME=lthack and USE_GNOME=ltverhack has been removed. Ports should use USES=libtool instead. Support for USE_AUTOTOOLS=libltdl has been removed. Ports should use LIB_DEPENDS=libltdl.so:${PORTSDIR}/devel/libltdl 20140916: AUTHOR: tijl@FreeBSD.org The installation of *.la files without some form of USES=libtool in the port Makefile will now result in a stage-qa error. Previously this would only cause a warning. The :keepla argument to USES=libtool is no longer special. It is now only needed if a port uses *.la files at run time and no longer to fix link problems in other ports. 20140901: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org Support for pkg_install has been removed. Note that WITH_PKGNG is now called WITH_PKG (still used to define 'devel') WITH_PKGNG remains for compatibility @stopdaemon support has gone, pkg(8) has a generic mechanism to provide the same function, see HANDLE_RC_SCRIPTS in pkg.conf(5). 20140901: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org Support for NO_STAGE has been removed. 20140825: AUTHOR: antoine@FreeBSD.org Support for NOPORTDATA has been removed. 20140809: AUTHOR: mva@FreeBSD.org The Python language bits of the ports framework have been converted to USES. Instead of USE_PYTHON, please use USES=python instead. USE_PYTHON=yes becomes USES=python USE_PYTHON=2.7+ becomes USES=python:2.7+ USE_PYTHON_BUILD=3.3 becomes USES=python:3.3,build ... Additionally, several Python specific features have been converted to USES-inspired USE_PYTHON=,. USE_PYDISTUTILS becomes USE_PYTHON=distutils PYDISTUTILS_AUTOPLIST becomes USE_PYTHON=autoplist ... Please read the header comments of Uses/python.mk for more details about the new and changed bits and pieces. You will find a list of deprecated variables and how to replace them in your own ports at the end of the header comment. 20140715: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org LIB_DEPENDS only supports one form: lib*.so 20140708: AUTHOR: mva@FreeBSD.org Support for installations based on the easy_install setup.py target has been removed from the Ports framework for Python software. The PYEASYINSTALL_* knobs and support for USE_PYDISTUTILS=easy_install have been removed. 20140623: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org IGNOREFILES is not supported anymore, it was an unsafe feature allowing to use unchecked files downloaded from untrusted places to be used in the ports tree. 20140607: AUTHOR: mva@FreeBSD.org New PYTHON_CONCURRENT_INSTALL knob to support the parallel installation of ports for different python versions. If set to yes, the knob indicates that the port can be installed for different python versions at the same time. The port will use a unique prefix for certain directories using USES=uniquefiles:dirs (see the uniquefiles.mk Uses for details about the directories). Binaries receive an additional suffix, based on ${PYTHON_VER}. The values for the uniquefiles USES are set as follows: UNIQUE_PREFIX= ${PYTHON_PKGNAMEPREFIX} UNIQUE_SUFFIX= -${PYTHON_VER} If the port is installed for the current default python version, scripts and binaries in ${PREFIX}/bin ${PREFIX}/sbin ${PREFIX}/libexec are linked from the prefixed version to the prefix-less original name, e.g. bin/foo-2.7 --> bin/foo. 20140529: AUTHOR: miwi@FreeBSD.org USE_GMAKE is no longer supported, please use USES=gmake instead 20140526: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org USE_DOS2UNIX is no longer supported, USES=dos2unix should be used instead 20140525: AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org Add a USE_PERL5=fixpacklist to account for ports creating a .packlist file referencing ${STAGEDIR} when not using USE_PERL5=configure or USE_PERL5=modbuildtiny. 20140505: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org :U and :L syntax is not supported anymore in the ports tree, :tu and :tl should be used instead This makes the ports tree incompatible with make(1) version that does not support :tu and :tl (aka FreeBSD 8.3 and earlier) 20140428: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org EXTRA_PATCHES has been extended to support a new syntax: EXTRA_PATCHES= file:-pX Where X is the pathname strip count passed to patch(1) 20140423: AUTHOR: tijl@FreeBSD.org The semantics of USES=libtool have changed. It now deletes .la libraries from the staging area to reduce overlinking. USES=libtool:keepla can be used in case they need to be kept. This form still modifies .la libraries to remove references to other libraries to reduce overlinking. Note that .la libraries have to kept around as long as there are .la libraries from other ports that refer to them. Those ports need to use some form of USES=libtool first such that those references are removed. 20140419: AUTHOR: bdrewery@FreeBSD.org check-orphans has been renamed to check-plist. It now checks: A. Files in STAGEDIR that are missing from plist. To make check-plist ignore a file *as an orphan* do one of the following: 1. Install it 2. post-install: ${RM} ${STAGEDIR}file 3. Put the file behind an OPTION with a PLIST_SUB: %%OPTION%%file 4. Add to plist as a @comment @comment file @comment @dirrmtry dir B. Files in plist missing from STAGEDIR C. Files in plist which are owned by dependencies/MTREEs 20140416: AUTHOR: bdrewery@FreeBSD.org The default target for 'make' now runs 'make stage' if the port supports it, otherwise 'make build' as before. 20140411: AUTHOR: bdrewery@FreeBSD.org A new plist keyword has been added, @sample. It accepts a file (must end in .sample): @sample file.conf.sample This will install file.conf.sample and copy it to file.conf. The file.conf will be removed if it matches file.conf.sample on deinstall. This replaces older patterns of: @unexec if cmp -s %D/etc/pkgtools.conf %D/etc/pkgtools.conf.sample; then rm -f %D/etc/pkgtools.conf; fi etc/pkgtools.conf.sample @exec [ -f %B/pkgtools.conf ] || cp %B/%f %B/pkgtools.conf 20140312: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org Two new USES were added to finish handling distfiles formats a consistent way: USES=tar[:[xz|bzip2|Z|tgz]] handles distributions files in format: - plain tar - tar.xz - tar.bz2 - tar.Z - tgz USES=lha handles distributions files info LHA format 20140307: AUTHOR: rene@FreeBSD.org Two new USES were added by bapt@FreeBSD.org : USES=zip handles distribution files in Zip format. InfoZip files need USES=zip:infozip USES=makeself handles distribution files in makeself format. 20140303: AUTHOR: kde@FreeBSD.org Add support for Qt 5 via USE_QT5. USE_QT5 is analogous to USE_QT4, the only difference is the list of available components (see Mk/bsd.qt.mk for details). USES=qmake supports Qt 5 as well. 20140224: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org Deprecate support for KNOBS, the new option framework allows to express a more consistent, user friendly and visible way the same feature. 20140127: AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org Add two new options helpers: ${OPT}_${TYPE}_DEPENDS_OFF= will automatically add: ${TYPE_DEPENDS}+= in case OPT is 'off' ${OPT}_${FLAG}_OFF= will automatically add: ${FLAG}+= in case OPT is 'off' 20140111: AUTHOR: mva@FreeBSD.org New USES=uniquefiles to make files or directories unique by adding a prefix or suffix to them. Files listed in UNIQUE_PREFIX_FILES will receive the prefix set via UNIQUE_PREFIX. The same applies to UNIQUE_SUFFIX_FILES, but with the chosen UNIQUE_SUFFIX. UNIQUE_PREFIX and UNIQUE_SUFFIX are set to PKGNAMEPREFIX and PKGNAMESUFFIX by default. The uniquefiles USES enables ports to name files in special ways, e.g. by outlining that the port does not support X11 (-nox11). A binary named bin/foo thus can be easily renamed to bin/foo-featureA via USES= uniquefiles UNIQUE_SUFFIX= -featureA UNIQUE_SUFFIX_FILES= bin/foo The uniquefiles USES automatically adjusts the plist at installation time. There is no need to consider the prefix or suffix in the pkg-plist file itself. If the original name of the renamed file is bin/foo, this exact name should be put into pkg-plist. The dirs argument to USES=uniquefiles will cause certain standard directories, such as DOCSDIR or EXAMPLESDIR to be prepended with the UNIQUE_PREFIX. The change to the directories will hapen prior to configuring or building the port, so that the port Makefile as well as the port's build logic are aware of the changed name. Since the uniquefiles USES effectively manipulates the port's installation and file layout, it will only be available for stagedir-aware ports. Ports with NO_STAGE=yes will be unable to use the uniquefiles USES. 20131218: AUTHOR: mva@FreeBSD.org lang/python (and as such the 'python' binary and accomplices) has been removed as default dependency for the USE_PYTHON, USE_PYTHON_BUILD and USE_PYTHON_RUN knobs. Ports need to use a designated (default) python interpreter to build and install and in most cases for execution in the user environment. Ports that install python scripts, which are not limited to a certain python version (or version range), can include lang/python as build and/or run dependency. USE_PYTHON=yes and similar knobs will only pull in the default python version (e.g. lang/python27), but none of the meta ports or lang/python itself. Please use lang/python as build or run-time dependency only, if there is no other way to get a port working properly, since the usage of lang/python complicates package builds for different python versions. 20131213: AUTHOR: tijl@FreeBSD.org New USES=fortran to replace USE_FORTRAN. USE_FORTRAN=yes can be replaced with USES=fortran or USES=fortran:gcc. USE_FORTRAN=ifort can be replaced with USES=fortran:ifort. USE_FORTRAN=f77 is deprecated and the version of gcc it depends on (lang/gcc34) is scheduled to be removed. Note that USE_FORTRAN=yes also makes GCC the C/C++ compiler while USES=fortran only sets the Fortran compiler and can be used together with Clang as C/C++ compiler. 20131208: AUTHOR: mva@FreeBSD.org New USES=twisted, to replace the old USE_TWISTED knob. twisted can be configured with the arguments run or build to replace the previous USE_TWISTED_RUN and USE_TWISTED_BUILD knobs. The twisted components can be added as comma-separated arguments. If you previously wrote USE_TWISTED= yes USE_TWISTED= conch names USE_TWISTED_RUN= yes you now would write USES= twisted USES= twisted:conch,names USES= twisted:run 20131119: AUTHOR: kwm@FreeBSD.org The USE_GNOME component ltverhack no longer has a hard dependancy on libtool. If USE_AUTOTOOLS=libtool isn't defined it will try to patch ltmain.sh and or libtool in ${WRKSRC}. If those files are located somewhere else in ${WRKSRC} then it is possible to overwrite ltverhack_PATCH_FILES with there new locations. configure script --distable-static will work also after using the "new" ltverhack. Please keep in mind that USE_AUTOTOOLS implies GNU_CONFIGURE so you might need to add that back for the port to work. 20131031: AUTHOR: rene@FreeBSD.org Add a new USES for kernel module ports. USES=kmod takes no arguments and: - adds kld to CATEGORIES - sets SSP_UNSAFE - sets IGNORE if the kernel sources are not found - defines KMODDIR to /boot/modules by default, add it to PLIST_SUB and MAKE_ENV, and create it upon installation - handles cross-referencing kernel modules upon installation and deinstallation 20131021: AUTHOR: amdmi3@FreeBSD.org share/applications directory was added to the mtree, meaning that you no longer need to create or remove it in your ports. 20131008: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org New "compiler" USES to be able to select the compiler based on the features it provides. Supported arguments are: - c++11-lang: the port needs a c++11 aware compiler what ever standard library it uses, implies features - c++11-lib: the port needs a c++11 standard library, implies features - c11: the ports needs a c11 aware compiler implies features - features: this will create a COMPILER_FEATURES variable which contains the list of features ${CC} do support, implies env. - env: the COMPILER_TYPE will be set to either gcc or clang. By default the uses will try to use clang33 from ports when nothing in base is relevant except if the user explicitly defines FAVORITE_COMPILER=gcc in his make.conf 20131008: AUTHOR: makc@FreeBSD.org New USES: qmake, configure tool widely used among Qt based projects. New framework is stage-friendly. To convert existing ports remove custom configure target, adjust QMAKE_ENV, QMAKE_ARGS, QMAKE_PRO if required (see Mk/Uses/qmake.mk for details). 20131005: AUTHOR: bdrewery@FreeBSD.org PATCHFILES now support an optional :-pX flag that notes which patch strip level to use. This allows multiple patches in 1 port to use different PATCH_DIST_STRIP values without changing PATCH_DIST_STRIP. Syntax: PATCHFILES= patch[:-pX][:distgroup] 20131003: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org New USES: scons, to handle properly the scons building system, this this also gives the scons packages user the ability to respect MAKE_JOBS. 20130924: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org Stage aware ports can now create package without the requirement from being root. If a port really needs root anyway it should add NEED_ROOT in its Makefile. For a port that needs special credential on files DO NOT RELY on chown in post-install section but rely on @own, @group in pkg-plist Be careful about rights on directories as pkg_install cannot store them they needs to be done via @exec chown. 20130923: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org The ports tree is now staged by default. With pkgng the sequence hasn't changed, the main difference is that creating package is now independent from installing it. With pkg_install, the package is now created first and make install, do install the package. New macros: - STAGEDIR: PATH to the directory where the port will be staged. - NO_STAGE: Keep the old behaviour of the ports tree (aka no staging area) Unsupported macro if NO_STAGE is not set: - MAN* with staging man page compression and handling of hardlinks and symlinks is automatically done in the stage. the manpages becomes then a "normal" plist files and should be tracked in pkg-plist. - MANCOMPRESSED the compress-man target is able to only compress when it needed. New target: - stage: this installs everything into the stage directory - makeplist: this will create a pkg-plist and print it to stdout. This is a sample plist and it should always be _reviewed_ not directly used. NOTE: with staging only what is in the plist will be installed, nothing more, meaning a port staged cannot have leftovers except directories left. It is really important to double check the pkg-plist to make sure all the files the maintainer wants to package are in! make makeplist can help in that area. 20130923: AUTHOR: mva@FreeBSD.org * New USES: zope This replaces the previous USE_ZOPE knob. All other zope related knobs for port Makefiles still exist. See Mk/Uses/zope.mk for details. 20130920: AUTHOR: bdrewery@FreeBSD.org SSP support has been added to ports with WITH_SSP_PORTS for i386 and amd64 on FreeBSD 10, and amd64 on earlier versions. SSP_UNSAFE is added to disable in a port if it fails to build, but this should only be used in rare circumstances such as kernel modules. Otherwise, the port may just be failing due to lack of respecting LDFLAGS. On FreeBSD 10, this uses an ldscript in /usr/lib/libc.so to pull in libssp_nonshared.a to address issues linking on i386 [1]. On earlier FreeBSD versions the WITH_SSP_PORTS knob will add -lssp_nonshared to LDFLAGS on i386. This is not needed on amd64. However, several hundred ports do not currently respect LDFLAGS, so this support is disabled currently as it causes build failures if a dependency is looking for the stack_chk symbols. [1] http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/head/lib/libc/libc.ldscript?revision=251668&view=markup 20130919: AUTHOR: gahr@FreeBSD.org * New USES: tcl, tk This uses replaces all the previous USE_TCL, USE_TCL_BUILD, USE_TCL_RUN, USE_TCL_WRAPPER, USE_TK, USE_TK_BUILD, USE_TK_RUN and USE_TK_WRAPPER macros. See the Mk/Uses/tcl.mk and the commit message of r327607 for details. Moreover, the default Tcl/Tk version is now specified in terms of bsd.default-versions.mk. It is now possible to specify one's preferred Tcl/Tk version using DEFAULT_VERSIONS+= tcltk=x.y in make.conf. 20130918: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org The perl framework is not included unconditionally and the old framework is not recognized anymore, the following MACROS has been removed: * PERL_CONFIGURE * USE_PERL5_RUN * USE_PERL5_BUILD * PERL_MODBUILD 20130904: AUTHOR: madpilot@FreeBSD.org To allow ports to work with the iconv implementation in 10-CURRENT after commit r254273 the USES=iconv options now conditionally adds a dependency depending on the FreeBSD version. It also defines a few utility variables which can be used in the ports: ICONV_CMD: location of the iconv binary. after r254273: /usr/bin/iconv before: ${LOCALBASE}/bin/iconv ICONV_LIB: ld(1) flags to get the iconv DSO. after r254273: empty before: -liconv ICONV_CONFIGURE_ARG: String that can be passed to configure scripts to hint the location of the libiconv library. after r254273: empty before: --with-libiconv-prefix=${LOCALBASE} 20130902: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org USE_GNOME=pkgconfig is not supported anymore by the ports tree, please uses: USES=pkgconfig 20130831: AUTHOR: bdrewery@FreeBSD.org crees has added USE_PACKAGE_DEPENDS_ONLY which works like USE_PACKAGE_DEPENDS but will not fallback on source if a package is missing. 20130731: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org * New USES: perl5 This uses replaces all the previous perl macros. Here is how to migrate: Always include perl5: USES= perl5 If USE_PERL5 is undefined then perl5 will be a build and run dependency Migrating to new USE_PERL5: ======================================================= | BEFORE | AFTER | ======================================================= | PERL_CONFIGURE=yes | USE_PERL5= configure | ------------------------------------------------------- | USE_PERL5_RUN=yes | USE_PERL5=run | ------------------------------------------------------- | USE_PERL5_BUILD=yes | USE_PERL5=build | ------------------------------------------------------- | PERL_MODBUILD=yes | USE_PERL5=modbuild | ------------------------------------------------------- | USE_PERL5=yes | | ------------------------------------------------------- | USE_PERL5=5.14+ | USE_PERL5= 5.14+ | ------------------------------------------------------- | PERL_CONFIGURE= 5.14+ | USE_PERL5=5.14+ configure | ------------------------------------------------------- | PERL_MODBUILD= 5.14+ | USE_PERL5=5.14+ modbuild | ------------------------------------------------------- 20130726: AUTHOR: rene@FreeBSD.org * With the removal of QT 3/KDE 3, the following are no longer recognized: - USE_KDEBASE_VER - USE_KDELIBS_VER - USE_QT_VER Mk/bsd.kde.mk has been removed, it was only used for QT 3/KDE 3. 20130628: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org * New USES: imake This uses replaces USE_IMAKE, it handles dependency on imake. Its only argument is 'env', which prevent from defining the do-configure target. * New LATE_INSTALL_TARGET This content of this new macro is appended to INSTALL_TARGET 20130620: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org * New USES: fmake This uses will allow to build ports using the legacy FreeBSD make, for ports not compatible with bmake 20130614: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org * New macros to help dealing with ports that have options: OPTIONS_SUB=yes when set in a port, all the option names are automatically added to the PLIST_SUB with "@comment " value in case the option is off and empty value in case the options is on. ${OPT}_CONFIGURE_ENABLE= will automatically add: CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--enable- in case OPT is activated CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--disable- in case OPT is deactivated ${OPT}_CONFIGURE_ON= will automatically add: CONFIGURE_ARGS+= in case OPT is activated ${OPT}_CONFIGURE_OFF= will automatically add: CONFIGURE_ARGS+= in case OPT is deactivated ${OPT}_CFLAGS will append the specified new flags to CFLAGS if OPT is 'on' ${OPT}_CXXFLAGS will append the specified new flags to CXXFLAGS if OPT is 'on' ${OPT}_LDFLAGS will append the specified new flags to LDFLAGS if OPT is 'on' ${OPT}_CONFIGURE_ENV will append the specified variables to CONFIGURE_ENV if OPT is 'on' ${OPT}_MAKE_ENV will append the specified variables to MAKE_ENV if OPT is 'on' ${OPT}_USES will append the speficied uses to USES if OPT is 'on' ${OPT}_DISTFILES will append the specified distiles to DISTFILES if OPT in 'on' ${OPT}_CMAKE_ON= will automatically add: CMAKE_ARGS+= in case OPT is activated ${OPT}_CMAKE_OFF= will automatically add: CMAKE_ARGS+= in case OPT is deactivated ${OPT}_${TYPE}_DEPENDS= will automatically add: ${TYPE_DEPENDS}+= in case OPT is 'on' 20130614: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org * New 'display' USES macro to handle building ports that may require a a display to build. USES= display[:install] will start Xvfb and set the DISPLAY environment variable before the installation phase and stop it at the end. (install is the implicit value) USES= display:build will start Xvfb and set the DISPLAY environment variable before the build phase and stop it at the end. 20130607: AUTHOR: bdrewery@FreeBSD.org * Checks were added to block GH_TAGNAME=master as this is not a valid setup. A known hash or tag should be used for GH_TAGNAME instead of a branch name. As soon as a branch is updated, the known checksum in the distinfo would then be invalid. 20130606: AUTHOR: bdrewery@FreeBSD.org * WRKSRC_SUBDIR has been added to simplify overriding WRKSRC to use a subdirectory: WRKSRC= ${WRKDIR}/${DISTNAME}/src Becomes: WRKSRC_SUBDIR= src 20130606: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org The OPTIONS macro is no longer recognized, please use the new options framework. 20130509: AUTHOR: kwm@FreeBSD.org * Two new USES macros to handle mime data of ports. USES= desktop-file-utils Handles MimeType in .desktop files that are installed in share/applications. USES= shared-mime-info For supporting mime xml files installed in share/mime/packages. The desktop-file-utils USES is only needed if the .desktop files installed by the port has a MimeType field. USE_GNOME=desktopfileutils is deprecated. The shared-mime-info USES handles mime types xml files. Please note that only the packages/${NAME}.xml file should be listed in the plist. The shared-mime-info port will clean up the share/mime/* directories and generated files. Both USES have there own post-install and code that adds @exec/@unexec lines to the pkg-plist. This means that when a port switches to the USES macro, the related post-install command and @exec/@unexec lines can be removed from the prot. 20130507: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org * New USES macro to handle setting correct shebang to scripts By default it will fix bash, perl, php, ruby and python on all files specified in the SHEBANG_FILES macro (glob pattern relative to ${WRKSRC}) Paths can be customized, and number of languages supported can be extended. * USE_GETTEXT, USE_NCURSES, USE_READLINE are no longer recognized 20130506: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org * New USES macro to handle linking on ncurses and on readline USES= ncurses will set env and make the port link to base version of ncurses if no port version is installed otherwise it will link against port version USES= ncurses:port will for the port to link against the ports version of ncurses USES= ncurses:base will force to link against base version of ncurses. USES= readline will make the port link against base version of readline except on 10+ where it will force dependency on the port version of readline USES= readline:port will anyway force dependency on the port version of readline. 20130426: AUTHOR: mva@FreeBSD.org * USE_ICONV has been deprecated and converted into the iconv USE feature USES= iconv 20130425: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org * USE_CDRTOOLS is no longer recognized * USE_FREETYPE is no longer recognized 20130423: AUTHOR: jgh@FreeBSD.org * New USES macro to handle support for gettext dependency: USES= gettext:build will add gettext into BUILD_DEPENDS USES= gettext:run will add gettext into RUN_DEPENDS USES= gettext:lib will add gettext into LIB_DEPENDS It deprecates USE_GETTEXT which will be removed as soon as it is not used anymore 20130422: AUTHOR: bdrewery@FreeBSD.org * The entry for 20120830 to change CCACHE_DIR was not fully supported by all ports. There is now a CCACHE_DIR variable that can be used in /etc/make.conf for more complete coverage: CCACHE_DIR=/var/cache/ccache 20130422: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org * New USES macro to handle support for pkgconf (pkg-config) dependency: USES= pkgconfig[:build] will add pkgconf into BUILD_DEPENDS USES= pkgconfig:run will add pkgconf into RUN_DEPENDS USES= pkgconfig:both will add pkgconf into both RUN and BUILD DEPENDS It deprecates USE_PKGCONFIG which will be removed as soon as it is not used anymore 20130320: AUTHOR: jgh@FreeBSD.org * New USES macro to handle support for Zenoss ports and Zenpacks: USES= zenoss 20130319: AUTHOR: makc@FreeBSD.org * New USES macro should be used instead of deprecated USE_CMAKE and CMAKE_OUTSOURCE: USES= cmake:outsource to perform out-of-source build (equivalent to former pair usage of USE_CMAKE/CMAKE_OUTSOURCE) USES= cmake In-source build (equivalent to plain USE_CMAKE=yes) can be used if project doesn't support out-of-source build. 20130319: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org * The options framework now uses ports-mgmt/dialog4ports contributed by Ilya A. Arkhipov. It boostraps it if not present when one calls make config. dialog4ports provides a new UI able to represent all the features provided by the new options framework. 20130315: AUTHOR: bdrewery@FreeBSD.org * USE_QMAIL_RUN, USE_QMAIL_BUILD and WANT_QMAIL have been removed and converted into the qmail USE feature USES= qmail:run will add qmail into RUN_DEPENDS USES= qmail:build will add qmail into BUILD_DEPENDS USES= qmail[:both] will add qmail into both RUN and BUILD DEPENDS USES= qmail:vars will set QMAIL_PREFIX 20130315: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org * Add new Keywords directory and first info.yaml keyword (@info). Keywords directory will contain all the custom plist keywords allowing to extend pkg-plist with new keywords. Only works with pkgng. 20130307: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org * New USES macro to handle on demand features, 2 examples has been added to the ports tree: pathfix: to replace USE_GNOME= gnomehack fuse: to replace USE_FUSE= yes 20130207: AUTHOR: gahr@FreeBSD.org * Use of PTHREAD_CFLAGS and PTHREAD_LIBS is unsupported. The former expands to the empty string, while the second is simply -pthread. Please use -pthread directly in your LDFLAGS, if needed. 20121214: AUTHOR: flo@FreeBSD.org * Add a USE_FUSE macro to handle fuse dependencies. It makes sure sysutils/fusefs-libs gets installed and depending on fuse being in base or not it installs sysutils/fusefs-kmod. 20121210: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org * OPTIONS has been extended 2 new macros are available: OPTIONS_RADIO - allows only 0 or 1 options to be selected OPTIONS_GROUP - allows 0 or N options among to be selected 20121010: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org * IPV6 option is now activated by default for the whole ports tree 20121010: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org * The ports tree is now using pkgng as the default package manager for HEAD. This only affects users of CURRENT -- users of other branches need not take any action. To keep pkg_install as the default package manager, use the new WITHOUT_PKGNG knob in make.conf 20120830: AUTHOR: beat@FreeBSD.org * CCACHE support for building ports has been added (depends on devel/ccache). Therefore new user settable variables are available: WITH_CCACHE_BUILD - Enable CCACHE support (Default off) NO_CCACHE - Disable CCACHE support for example for certain ports if CCACHE is enabled. By default CCACHE uses $HOME/.ccache as cache directory. To use a non-default cache directory this could be overwritten like: MAKE_ENV+= CCACHE_DIR=/var/cache/ccache 20120820: AUTHOR: gahr@FreeBSD.org * GitHub support has been integrated into bsd.sites.mk. In order to fetch distfiles from GitHub, a port must define USE_GITHUB along with the following variables: GH_ACCOUNT - account name of the GitHub user hosting the project default: not set, mandatory GH_PROJECT - name of the project on GitHub default: ${PORTNAME} GH_TAGNAME - name of the tag to download (master, 2.0.1, ...) default: ${DISTVERSION} GH_COMMIT - first 7 digits of the commit that generated GH_TAGNAME (man git-describe(1)) default: not set, mandatory The port www/tivoka is an example how to use this mechanism. 20120726: AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org * new macro USE_PKGCONFIG has been introduce in place of USE_GNOME= pkgconfig USE_PKGCONFIG= yes and USE_PKGCONFIG= build for build only dependency USE_PKGCONFIG= run for run only dependency USE_PKGCONFIG= both for both build and run dependency 20120715: AUTHOR: beat@FreeBSD.org * The ports tree moved from CVS to Subversion. A Subversion to CVS exporter is in place to continue the support of CVSup but do not commit to pcvs directly. All commits have to be done in the new port Subversion repository on svn.FreeBSD.org. You will find more information about Subversion in the Ports Subversion Primer in the FreeBSD wiki, in the "Committer's Guide" and the "Porter's Handbook". If you are in doubt or unsure about a Subversion operation please contact ports@FreeBSD.org. 20120529: AUTHOR: crees@FreeBSD.org * OPTIONS has been updated with many changes and improvements. Old-style OPTIONS declarations will continue to work for a while, but do not introduce any into existing or new ports. For further information, see the Porter's Handbook section on Makefile Options. 20110923: AUTHOR: amdmi3@FreeBSD.org * LDFLAGS is now passed to both the configure and make environments, and should be handled just like CPPFLAGS (see previous entry). Summarizing both LDFLAGS and CPPFLAGS changes, where you would have used CONFIGURE_ENV= CPPFLAGS="-I${LOCALBASE}/include" \ LDFLAGS="-L${LOCALBASE}/lib" MAKE_ENV= CPPFLAGS="-I${LOCALBASE}/include" \ LDFLAGS="-L${LOCALBASE}/lib" now just use CPPFLAGS+= "-I${LOCALBASE}/include" LDFLAGS+= "-L${LOCALBASE}/lib" Note that it's advised to append these variables (+=) instead of overriding (=) to allow customization by user. 20110320: AUTHOR: gerald@FreeBSD.org * CPPFLAGS is now passed to both the configure and make environments, so this no longer needs to happen in individual ports by adding this to CONFIGURE_ENV or MAKE_ENV. Rather, just set CPPFLAGS in the port Makefile (if necessary). For example, where you would have used CONFIGURE_ENV= CPPFLAGS="-I${LOCALBASE}/include" MAKE_ENV= SOMETHING=foo CPPFLAGS="-I${LOCALBASE}/include" now just use CPPFLAGS= "-I${LOCALBASE}/include" MAKE_ENV SOMETHING=foo 20100831: AUTHOR: autotools@FreeBSD.org * USE_GETTEXT has been cleaned up. 'build' BUILD time dependency only 'run' RUN time dependency only 'yes' LIBRARY dependency 20100606: AUTHOR: gerald@FreeBSD.org * USE_GCC=4.3 is deprecated (and no port uses it anymore). USE_GCC=4.3+ is transparently rewritten to USE_GCC=4.4+ and lang/gcc43 will be disconnected from the USE_GCC infrastructure soon. 20100524: AUTHOR: alepulver@FreeBSD.org * The license support files (bsd.licenses.mk and bsd.licenses.db.mk) from GSoc 2008/2009 have been committed. A new PH entry will be available soon, but for the moment look at: http://wiki.freebsd.org/PortsLicenseInfrastructure Or, alternatively, the comments at the beginning of the mentioned files. 20090906: AUTHOR: flz@FreeBSD.org * There is now a unified way to create users and groups in your ports. First, make sure they are added to both ports/GIDs and ports/UIDs, then add the following in your port: USERS= foo GROUPS= foo ... if you want your port to create the foo user and group. 20090812: AUTHOR: portmgr@FreeBSD.org * sourceforge.net has changed their URL layout to be more flexible for their users. A new bsd.sites.mk macro SFP has been added for projects that moved from http://${mirror}/sourceforge/%SUBDIR%/ to http://${mirror}/project/%SUBDIR%/ Note that %SUBDIR% is now highly individual for each project and might need changing as well. 20090521: AUTHOR: portmgr@FreeBSD.org * bsd.port.options.mk is now clear to be widely used. 20090516: AUTHOR: pgollucci@FreeBSD.org * APACHE_COMPAT is dead! * USE_APACHE=yes is dead! * WITH_APACHE13, WITH_APACHE2, WITH_APACHE20, and WITH_APACHE22 are dead You should set USE_APACHE=13|20|22+. WITH_APACHE option can be used to conditional include support for ANY version of Apache based on APACHE_PORT. Currently www/apache13 20090207: AUTHOR: pgollucci@FreeBSD.org * devel/libslang dropped in favor of devel/libslang2 * WITH_SLANG2 has been removed. WITH_SLANG now implies devel/libslang2. 20080905: AUTHOR: hrs@FreeBSD.org * print/ghostscript-* and related ports have been renamed in the following way: print/ghostscript-gnu -> print/ghostscript7 print/ghostscript-gnu-nox11 -> print/ghostscript7-nox11 print/ghostscript-gnu-commfont -> print/ghostscript7-commfont print/ghostscript-gpl -> print/ghostscript8 print/ghostscript-gpl-nox11 -> print/ghostscript8-nox11 japanese/ghostscript-gnu-jpnfont -> print/ghostscript7-jpnfont korean/ghostscript-gnu-korfont -> print/ghostscript7-korfont * USE_GHOSTSCRIPT now supports a version number which the port requires. The valid value is "7" or "8". If other value is specified, value of WITH_GHOSTSCRIPT_VER is used. * WITH_GHOSTSCRIPT_GNU has been removed in favor of WITH_GHOSTSCRIPT_VER. The valid value of WITH_GHOSTSCRIPT_VER is "7" or "8", and the default value is "8". 20080821: AUTHOR: rafan@FreeBSD.org * CONFIGURE_ARGS is updated to use correct syntax for newer autoconf on the configure target. Individual ports no longer need to change CONFIGURE_TARGET to have the '--build=' prefix. 20080721: AUTHOR: pav@FreeBSD.org * Default OpenLDAP version was changed from 2.3 to 2.4. * USE_GTK and USE_XPM variables are no longer recognized. 20080523: AUTHOR: flz@FreeBSD.org * By default, ports-mgmt/pkg_install now sets up a wrapper to use ports pkg_install (when installed) instead of base when the former is more recent. This can be disabled in the options menu, or with the WITHOUT_WRAPPER knob. 20080414: AUTHOR: pav@FreeBSD.org * @rmtry is now supported in pkg-plist. * USE_DISPLAY made more powerful, see comments in bsd.port.mk for details. * ${PW} is now defined. * LIB_DEPENDS can now be used with libraries with + sign in their name without the need for escaping. 20080312: AUTHOR: pav@FreeBSD.org * USE_XPM no longer implies USE_XLIB. * USE_LDCONFIG can now be used to Linux binary ports that install shared libraries instead of INSTALLS_SHLIB. 20070908: AUTHOR: gabor@FreeBSD.org, linimon@FreeBSD.org * The Perl-related code parts have been extracted from bsd.port.mk to bsd.perl.mk. This includes the user-settable knobs (e.g. USE_PERL5) and infrastructure parts of the code, like default targets. The new code is designed to be conditionally included based on either USE_PERL5_*, PERL_CONFIGURE, or PERL_MODBUILD being set. However, some of the default settings remain in bsd.port.mk while we make sure that all ports comply with this. * A convenient version handling has been implemented for Perl-related knobs. With this new feature one can require a minimal, a maximal or an exact version, that the given port needs. For the full description and some examples, please see the documentation in bsd.perl.mk. 20070804: AUTHOR: gabor@FreeBSD.org The following functional changes were made to bsd.*.mk and to Tools/scripts/security-check.awk: * The variable definitions that cover command line tools, e.g. MKDIR, were extracted from bsd.port.mk into bsd.commands.mk, so that we can reuse them within the infrastructure later. * The old DESTDIR implementation was removed both from the infrastructure, and from the individual ports. Variables like TARGETDIR should not longer be used. * A new DESTDIR implementation has been added, implemented in bsd.destdir.mk. The new implementation puts no requirements on the individual ports. 20070730: AUTHOR: python@FreeBSD.org * The default Python version has been changed from 2.4.x to 2.5.x. * A number of variables have been added to bsd.python.mk to support the more integrated support for Python eggs, including: PYDISTUTILS_PKGNAME, PYDISTUTILS_PKGVERSION, PYEASYINSTALL_EGG, PYDISTUTILS_NOEGGINFO, PYDISTUTILS_EGGINFO, PYEASYINSTALL_ARCHDEP * More detailed descriptions of the variables can be found in the comments in bsd.python.mk. 20070723: AUTHOR: rafan@FreeBSD.org * The default CONFIGURE_ARGS when GNU_CONFIGURE is set now contains --mandir and --infodir if configure script supports them. 20070712: AUTHOR: maho@FreeBSD.org * Add knob USE_FORTRAN for ports which uses FORTRAN. All ports uses FORTRAN compiler should use this knob. Usages are: USE_FORTRAN=yes (default;gfortran42), USE_FORTRAN=ifc (Intel FORTRAN compiler) and USE_FORTRAN=g77 (/usr/bin/f77 or g77-34). 20070701: AUTHOR: portmgr@FreeBSD.org The following change was made to the ports infrastructure: * Virtual category 'kld' was added. If the port installs kernel loadable modules, it should be included in this category. 20070524: AUTHOR: portmgr@FreeBSD.org The following changes were made to the ports infrastructure: * The 'make-deinstall-all' target now checks for moved ports. * The installation directories PORTEXAMPLES and PORTDATA are now defined. * The USE_MAKESELF knob is added for ports that use the makeself archiver. * The description of fetch-list was updated. The targets fetch-required-list, fetch-url-list, and fetch-urlall-list were added. * 'make search' will also now search in ports/MOVED. * The default method for 'make update' is now portsnap. Previously, you had to manually select one of 3 methods: SUP_UPDATE, CVS_UPDATE, or PORTSNAP_UPDATE. The latter is now obsolete. * Several Makevar definitions have been moved to the pre-makefile section: DATADIR, DOCSDIR, ETCDIR, EXAMPLESDIR, WWWDIR. 20070403: AUTHOR: portmgr@FreeBSD.org The following changes were made to the ports infrastructure: * The default dependency of USE_GHOSTSCRIPT has been changed from ghostscript-gnu to ghostscript-gpl. The WITH_GHOSTSCRIPT_GPL variable is now no-op. New WITH_GHOSTSCRIPT_GNU variable was added. * bsd.tcl.mk was overhauled. Most importantly, the semantics of USE_TCL* and USE_TK* variables was changed. USE_TCL and USE_TK now implies both build and run dependencies, USE_TCL_RUN and USE_TK_BUILD variables were introduced. Existing ports in the tree were modified. * Unused category 'tcl81' was removed, and new categories 'tcl' and 'tk' were added. 20070324: AUTHOR: portmgr@FreeBSD.org The following changes were made to the ports infrastructure: * Default LIBTOOLFILES value was changed from literal `configure' to ${CONFIGURE_SCRIPT}. * bsd.efl.mk was moved to ports/Mk. USE_EFL family of macros is now generally available to all ports. * New macros COPYTREE_BIN and COPYTREE_SHARE were added, to allow for easy installation of a tree hierarchy, either with executable (bin) or read-only (share) permissions on files. * A new variable WWWDIR was added, with default value of ${PREFIX}/www/${PORTNAME}. * Variables DOCSDIR_REL, DATADIR_REL, EXAMPLESDIR_REL and WWWDIR_REL were added for porter's convenience. They contain the values of their respective non-REL variables, except relative to installation PREFIX. 20070313: AUTHOR: portmgr@FreeBSD.org The following changes were made to the ports infrastructure: * bsd.ocaml.mk and bsd.xfce.mk were added. * The FETCH_CMD was refactored so that ports can override the command, the arguments, or both. 20070306: AUTHOR: portmgr@FreeBSD.org The following changes were made to the ports infrastructure: * The remaining vestiges of FreeBSD 4.X support were removed. Any remaining users of 4.X should have stayed with the RELEASE_4_EOL tag. * It is now possible to include USE_PHP after bsd.port.pre.mk. * 'make search' should now work with non-default ${PORTSDIR}. 20070130: AUTHOR: portmgr@FreeBSD.org The following changes were made to the ports infrastructure: * DEPENDS variable was removed, please use other *_DEPENDS variables instead. * A new pkg-plist keyword is available, @stopdaemon. It will call forcestop on all rc.subr scripts installed by the port on deinstall, effectively stopping services on deinstall/upgrade. * rc.subr script suffix is now available in Makefile as RC_SUBR_SUFFIX. * New variable USE_CDRTOOLS was introduced. It replaced direct dependencies on sysutils/cdrtools port. It now automatically support switching to cdrtools-cjk port when user specified WITH_CJK. All ports were converted. * USE_DOS2UNIX, infrastructure for converting DOS to UNIX line feeds, was enhanced by a new variable DOS2UNIX_REGEX. It allows to specify a find -iregex parameter to limit touched files by file extensions. * Support for partially translated manpages was added. For examples of usage, please refer to Porter's Handbook. * USE_TCL/USE_TK variables were changed to provide runtime dependency. New variables USE_TCL_BUILD and USE_TK_BUILD were added. All unintuitive quirks of these variables were fixed. * USE_LDCONFIG was fixed to work properly for ports, that specify @cwd in the pkg-plists. * Old bsd.java.mk version 1.0 macros were removed. * New category: ports-mgmt * New virtual category: gnustep * Unused 'picobsd' category was removed. 20070118: AUTHOR: maho@FreeBSD.org We'd like to ask all ports maintainers, who are using Fortran77 (f77 in base), to switch to Fortran90/95 (gfortran42, lang/gcc42). Please refer to http://people.freebsd.org/~maho/gfortran/gfortran.html for details. 20061014: AUTHOR: gnome@FreeBSD.org The following changes have been introduced to the GNOME porting process during the GNOME 2.16 update: * GNOME is now installed into LOCALBASE. Any port which makes use of the gnomeprefix component will have its PREFIX forced to LOCALBASE 20060930: AUTHOR: portmgr@FreeBSD.org The following functional changes were made to bsd.port.mk: * The bsd.port.mk pre and post includes have been split into 3 pieces instead of 2, to allow OPTIONS to be able to influence dependencies. This is still experimental and not yet enabled by any port. This adds the file 'bsd.port.options.mk'. * bsd.gcc.mk has been updated to understand gfortran. * emulators/linux_base is now removed. linux_base-fc4 has been the default for some time. * The USE_FIREBIRD macro was added to bsd.database.mk. 20060914: AUTHOR: portmgr@FreeBSD.org The following functional changes were made to bsd.port.mk: * PKGVERSION was introduced as an intermediate variable refactored out of PKGNAME. * bsd.lua.mk was added to support lua-related ports. * DESTDIR was removed from bsd.scons.mk because it was problematic. * Some quotes were added to the 'missing' target to improve handling of duplicate origins. 20060903: AUTHOR: sat@FreeBSD.org The following functional changes were made to bsd.sites.mk: * MASTER_SITES variable can now look like MACRO1/subdir1 MACRO2/subdir2, and be expanded in a way that you expect it to, that is apply different subdirs to different sites. You can safely replace ${M_S_FOO:S/%SUBDIR%/bar/} with FOO/bar. * If M_S_SUBDIR is unset, a macro in M_S won't set it anymore, but rather substitute %SUBDIR% all by itself. Now it's possible to use macros with different default subdirs and they will expand in a proper way. 20060805: AUTHOR: sat@FreeBSD.org The following functional changes were made to bsd.sites.mk: * MASTER_SITES variable can now contain special macros which are expanded into traditional URL[:group] syntax and cause some convenient effects, e.g. set a default M_S_SUBDIR. * A macro is any space-delimited word in MASTER_SITES without a forward slash. * If MASTER_SITE_ is defined, then the macro is expanded to its value. * Abbreviated macros are provided for extremely popular locations, e.g. CPAN and SF. To avoid further obfuscation their unabbreviated equivalents should be avoided. * Popular macros can trigger M_S_SUBDIR to default to a predefined value, e.g. ${PORTNAME:L} for SF and ${PORTNAME:C/-.*//} for CPAN. * Abbreviations and M_S_SUBDIR defaults are defined by MASTER_SITES_ABBREVS and MASTER_SITES_SUBDIRS, both set in bsd.sites.mk. * If a macro belongs to a group (e.g. SF:source1), all the sites it expands into also belong to the same group. * Macros and traditional URL's can be mixed safely, their order stays intact. 20060804: AUTHOR: gabor@FreeBSD.org The following functional changes were made to bsd.*.mk and to Tools/scripts/security-check.awk: * Add DESTDIR support to let one install ports into a jail from outside. A package is installed under ${DESTDIR}${PREFIX} now and registered under ${DESTDIR}/var/db/pkg. * TARGETDIR variable has been added for referencing ${DESTDIR}${PREFIX}. * LOCALBASE, LINUXBASE and X11BASE variables point to the final destination now, LOCALBASE_REL, LINUXBASE_REL and X11BASE_REL can be used for the old behavior. The behavior has not been changed in PLIST_SUB. Note, that the three variables are still overridable with a hack, so this change doesn't affect POLA, but necessary for DESTDIR support. * OSVERSION is now determined from the userland, not from the kernel. Cross-compiling between releases is still not supported, but this behavior is more correct for jails with differing userland from the kernel version. * Add some sanity check for PREFIX and DESTDIR. This can be skipped by defining IGNORE_PATH_CHECKS, but very discouraged. * Deinstalling from DESTDIR, determining if a port is already installed in DESTDIR, etc. are implemented by chrooting those specific commands. * Text changes to reflect that we are installing to DESTDIR, removing from DESTDIR, etc. Note, that this change implements only the infrastructure support. Ports should also be implemented to respect DESTDIR. 20060717: AUTHOR: portmgr@FreeBSD.org The following functional changes were made to bsd.port.mk: * Introduces IA32_BINARY_PORT for certain cases where a given port fetches and installs compiled i386 binaries. * Adds some infrastructure for support of 32-bit i386 apps on amd64. * Again fix USE_LDCONFIG logic to make it work with non-default PREFIX to fix bug introduced in previous revision. 20060705: AUTHOR: portmgr@FreeBSD.org The following functional changes were made to bsd.port.mk: * Change all bogus uses of BROKEN to IGNORE. (Note: the BROKEN_WITH_* forms are retained for compatibility but deprecated.) Internally, these variables all had already set IGNORE, not BROKEN, so they were really misnomers. * Fix USE_LDCONFIG with non-default PREFIX. * Fix DESKTOP_ENTRIES processing on 4.x. * Add 'make missing' to show missing dependencies. * Add bsd.scons.mk and bsd.wx.mk. 20060616: AUTHOR: portmgr@FreeBSD.org The patch in ports/95841 to get rid of remnants of FORCE_PKG_REGISTER was backed out because it broke kdelibs3*. 20060616: AUTHOR: portmgr@FreeBSD.org The following functional changes were made to bsd.port.mk: * Update default MySQL version from 4.1 to 5.0 [1] * Update default PHP version from 4 to 5 [2] * Update default LDAP version from 2.2 to 2.3 [3] * Add support for LDAP version 2.4 [4] * Update default linux_base from '8' (Redhat 8) to 'fc4' (Fedora Core 4) [5] * Switch default Linux X implementation from XFree86 to X.org to track the above [5] * Deprecate INSTALLS_SHLIB and replace it by USE_LDCONFIG. If set to "yes", the old behavior is preserved. Otherwise, it can be set to a list of directories to be added to ${PREFIX}/libdata/ldconfig/${UNIQUENAME}. Note that this directory is used by ldconfig startup script, it is meant to replace ldconfig scripts installed by some ports as (sometimes 000.${UNQUENAME}.sh) [6] * Adds USE_LDCONFIG32 which is like USE_LDCONFIG but the target file is ${PREFIX}/libdata/ldconfig32/${UNIQUENAME} instead. (Note: this should only be used on 64-bit architectures) [6] * Set the default LANG for tr to be C to avoid some build problems [7] * Include bsd.java.mk in both pre and post sections [8] * Get rid of remnants of FORCE_PKG_REGISTER [9] * Always print options with make showconfig [10] PR: 92805 [1], 92806 [2], 96793 [3], 97515 [4], 96849 [5], 91933 [6], 91381 [7], 97020 [8], 95841 [9], 97133 [10] 20060523: AUTHOR: portmgr@FreeBSD.org The following functional changes were made to bsd.port.mk: * include bsd.emacs.mk only when USE_EMACS is set [5] * Correct the implementation of pretty-print-run-depends-list [8] * Use a consistent name for the cookies file when PKGNAMEPREFIX/SUFFIX are set after bsd.port.pre.mk. [9] * Include bsd.tcl.mk if USE_TCL_BUILD is defined [10] * Set PERL_MM_USE_DEFAULT in BATCH mode [11] * Add the {ONLY,NOT}_FOR_ARCH_REASON and {ONLY,NOT}_FOR_ARCH_REASON_${ARCH} variables to allow better customization of the error string reported to users when they attempt a build on an unsupported architecture. [12] * Avoid errors from duplicated targets when parsing MLINKS on ports without a default value set. [13] * Fix handling of MLINKS when invalid entries are listed [14] * Enforce sanity of DESKTOP_ENTRIES. If the Categories field is omitted, try to map ports categories to their freedesktop.org counterpart [15] PR: 95238 [5], 94164 [8], 94219 [9], 92355 [10], 95579 [11], 94675 [12], 66109 [13], 66110 [14], 95603 [15] 20060121: AUTHOR: portmgr@FreeBSD.org The following changes affecting ports developers were introduced: * Gamin is a default FAM system * New virtual categories: hamradio and rubygems * Virtual category 'offix' was removed * New USE_DOS2UNIX variable for converting DOS linefeeds to UNIX * Variables like BROKEN and FORBIDDEN should no longer be quoted * New NOFETCHFILES variable to prevent downloading from MASTER_SITES while still allowing MASTER_SITE_OVERRIDE * New plist macro @dirrmtry with functionality of @unexec rmdir || true * USE_REINPLACE no longer needs to be defined, REINPLACE_CMD is always available Detailed documentation of new features is available in Porter's Handbook. 20051108: AUTHOR: portmgr@FreeBSD.org The following changes were introduced: * Add bsd.database.mk - move out from bsd.port.mk USE_MYSQL and USE_PGSQL. - add support for Berkeley DB and SQLite (via USE_BDB and USE_SQLITE knobs). * Escape '+' in make search * Add "makepatch" target to simplify creation of patches during porting * Replace deprecated MACHINE_ARCH with ARCH * Remove support of OpenLDAP 2.1 * Add bsd.tcl.mk It introduces USE_TCL/USE_TCL_BUILD knobs to support various version of tcl (8.0 -> 8.4) * Fix cosmetic bugs in security-check target * Add support for INDEX-7 and above (up to INDEX-9 actually) * Add "package-recursive" to bsd.port.subdir.mk * Remove check for FreeBSD version < 460101 * New category: net-im * Add .desktop file facilities It introduces DESKTOPDIR and DESKTOP_ENTRIES knobs * Add SHA256 support to "*checksum" targets * Fix USE_PYTHON with OPTIONS * Force NO_LINT to MAKE_ENV to avoid library breaks * Fix typo: s/RC_ORDER/USE_RCORDER/g * Add support for PostgreSQL 8.1 * Add bsd.apache.mk USE_APACHE knob enhancements 20051105: AUTHOR: gnome@FreeBSD.org GNOME has been upgraded from 2.10.2 to 2.12.1. This update brings with it many important porting changes: - gtk20's pkg-config file no longer contains the X11 pango modules. Therefore, if your port requires these modules, you may have to manually patch them in to your port's Makefiles. Contact gnome@FreeBSD.org if you have questions on this. - A new USE_GNOME component, ltverhack, has been added. This pseudo-component hacks libtool so that shared library versions are more consistent with other operating systems. Using this component can prevent unnecessary shared library version changes. - A new macro, INSTALLS_ICONS, has been added. If your port installs Freedesktop-style icons to ${LOCALBASE}/share/icons or ${X11BASE}/share/icons, then you should use this macro. NOTE: use of this macro requires your port to set either USE_GNOME or WANT_GNOME. 20050618: AUTHOR: netchild@FreeBSD.org - USE_LINUX now implies NO_FILTER_SHLIBS=yes. It also doesn't use FreeBSD tools to strip binaries anymore, so it's not necessary anymore to override STRIP and STRIP_CMD. - USE_LINUX_PREFIX implies NO_MTREE now. - In the USE_LINUX case, USE_XLIB now depends upon the Linux X11 libraries instead upon the native FreeBSD libraries. - The variable LINUX_BASE_PORT contains a string which is suitable as an item in *_DEPENDS, so if a port BATCH_DEPENDS or FETCH_DEPENDS upon the default (or overridden) Linux base, ${LINUX_BASE_PORT} should be used instead of a hardcoded reference. - If USE_LINUX or OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE doesn't point to an existing linux_base port and if USE_LINUX isn't set to "yes" (case insensitive), the port will be marked as IGNORE. 20050609: AUTHOR: portmgr@FreeBSD.org The following changes were introduced: * Improve documentation of CONFLICTS. * Fix add-plist-docs target to work correctly with wildcards. * Fix USE_MYSQL and USE_PGSQL knobs to work in partial ports tree. * Introduce 2 new variables: USE_FAM and WANT_FAM_SYSTEM. * Suppress "Vulnerability check disabled" message if DISABLE_VULNERABILITIES is defined. * Switch default MySQL version to 4.1 * Add support for OpenLDAP v.23 * Fix add-plist-info and add-plist-post targets to avoid warnings from ports which redefine them. * Fix add-plist-docs target to handle NOPORTDOCS knob properly. * Use INSTALLDIRS="site" in configure for perl ports. * Fix NO_(CHECKSUM|BUILD|INSTALL|PACKAGE) knobs if OPTIONS are defined. * Add an ability to depend on versioned installed package. Example: BUILD_DEPENDS=p5-Tree-Simple>=1.12:${PORTSDIR}/devel/p5-Tree-Simple Please note, it's experimental feature, work is currently in progress. 20050325: AUTHOR: jdp@FreeBSD.org The CVSup port has been upgraded with a patch to correct the handling of the "refuse" file for files that are in the CVS Attic. This solves a problem some people were having, where CVSup would delete their ports/INDEX* files even though the files were listed in the "refuse" file. The bug fix is in the cvsupd server, so mirror sites must upgrade their servers in order for this fix to help. Meanwhile, adding "ports/Attic/INDEX*" to the refuse file serves as a work-around. 20050321: AUTHOR: kwm@FreeBSD.org The gstreamer-plugins gconf dependency moved to its own port in devel. When your application needs gstreamer-plug-gconf, just add USE_GSTREAMER=gconf to you Makefile 20050319: AUTHOR: gnome@FreeBSD.org New GNOME components have been added to bsd.gnome.mk. See http://www.FreeBSD.org/gnome/docs/gnome2_porting.html for the complete list of available GNOME 2 components. Py-gnome2 lost many of its GNOME dependencies to a new port, py-gnome-extras. Therefore, ports that used to depend on the pygnome2 component for modules such as gtkhtml2, gnomepanel, etc. should replace the pygnome2 dependency with pygnomeextras. 20050314: AUTHOR: edwin@FreeBSD.org New variable for in /etc/make.conf: IGNORE_MASTER_SITE_xxx If you prefer a certain mastersite for a collection of master-sites, set this in your /etc/make.conf: MASTER_SITE_xxx=http://z.x.y/%SUBDIR%/ If you insist on only using the ones you specify, set this in your /etc/make.conf: IGNORE_MASTER_SITE_xxx=yes MASTER_SITE_xxx=http://z.x.y/%SUBDIR%/ Use "make -V MASTER_SITES" to see the differences. 20050313: AUTHOR: ahze@FreeBSD.org, kwm@FreeBSD.org The following changes were committed: * USE_GNOME=gstreamerplugins has been deprecated. The new method which uses bsd.gstreamer.mk is: USE_GSTREAMER=plugin-name Example: USE_GSTREAMER= dvd or WANT_GSTREAMER= yes .include .if defined(WITH_DVD) USE_GSTREAMER= dvd .endif * misc/gnomehier now creates a mtree file and each port using USE_GNOME=gnomehier or gnomeprefix now use the BSD.gnome-x11.dist mtree file to help "keep" directories and not accidentally add gnome directories to a port. 20050207: AUTHOR: portmgr@FreeBSD.org The following changes were committed: * Change bento to pointyhat names in comments. * Document DISABLE_VULNERABILITIES variable. * Add WWW: line for 'search' target. * Speedup check-vulnerable invocation, if portaudit is installed. * Run install-info for all .info files. * Run add-plist-docs more strictly and prevent some situations with leftover files in the future. * Introduce two new variables: MASTER_PORT and SLAVE_PORT. The results from these variables is only used as information for users. * Honor OPTIONS if PACKAGE_BUILDING or BATCH are defined. * Move all USE_GCC entries to new file - bsd.gcc.mk. 'test-gcc' target allows users to check gcc version if USE_GCC is used. Give maintainers opportunity to add '+' character to USE_GCC version for using specified and higher versions. Example: USE_GCC=3.3+ builds ports with gcc version 3.3 and higher (3.4, 4.0). * Install startup scripts with the help of USE_RC_SUBR variable. * Add three new targets: config-recursive, rmconfig-recursive and config-conditional. You can set or delete OPTIONS for all dependencies before every build. config-conditional target is used to skip configuring ports which have already been configured. * Fix using of WANT_PGSQL_VER variable if PostgreSQL is already installed. 20041231: AUTHOR: netchild@FreeBSD.org USE_LINUX_PREFIX doesn't implies USE_LINUX anymore. 20041209: AUTHOR: portmgr@FreeBSD.org The following changes were committed: * Define new macros: DATE, FMT, MKTEMP, OBJDUMP, and use command macro SORT. * Change layout of comments to 4 column tabs, remove lots of spaces and eight-column-tabs. * Introduce 2 new variables: SUB_FILES and SUB_LIST: Example: SUB_FILES= pkg-message pkg-install SUB_LIST+= "VERSION=${VERSION}" This looks for ${FILESDIR}/pkg-message.in and ${FILESDIR}/pkg-install.in Substitutions in SUB_LIST are applied to these files and the output is redirected to ${WRKDIR}. PKGMESSAGE will be set to ${WRKDIR}/pkg-message. PKGINSTALL will be set to ${WRKDIR}/pkg-install. * Document DEPRECATED and EXPIRATION_DATE variables. * Sanitize the intermittent output by the build infrastructure so that cutting and pasting from it no longer interferes with GNATS-tags. * Honor configure arguments for USE_XLIB if USE/WITH_LIBTOOL_ is used. * Properly document 'describe' target. * Properly remove directories at deinstallation time if ports sets a non-standard PREFIX. * Defaults INDEXFILE to INDEX-6 on 6-CURRENT. 20041119: AUTHOR: portmgr@FreeBSD.org The following changes were committed: * Fix INDEX build if MAINTAINER is not defined. * Remove USE_QT2 option, since qt2 is obsolete. * Better define and explain ARCH option. * Add new script Tools/make_readmes, to speedup 'readmes' target. Avoid recursing into individual port directories and run it at top level, after the category README.html files have been created. * Fix 'search' target and enable a case-insensitive search on 5-x. * Extend 'search' target and enable search by categories. * Remove 'tk42' and 'tcl76' categories since they're obsolete. * Introduce DISTVERSION variable, that can be set instead of PORTVERSION and is automatically converted in a conforming PORTVERSION. Example: DISTVERSION= 10Alpha3 extends 10Alpha3 to 10.a3 DISTVERSION= 3Beta7-pre2 extends 3Beta7-pre2 to 3.b7.p2 * Use --suffix option instead of -b for patch(1), to make it compatible with BSD patch(1). * Fix {WANT,WITH}_MYSQL_VER behavior, to deal with conflicting versions. 20041116: AUTHOR: gnome@FreeBSD.org The way OMF files are handled has been changed to use the new INSTALLS_OMF macro (similar to INSTALLS_SHLIB). Details about the new macro can be found at http://www.FreeBSD.org/gnome/docs/porting.html and bsd.gnome.mk. 20041113: AUTHOR: portmgr@FreeBSD.org Since INDEX version in CVS is always too old, portmgr decided to remove it. You will still be able to build your own INDEX or use 'fetchindex' target in /usr/ports/. 20041109: AUTHOR: gnome@FreeBSD.org The way GConf schema files are handled has been changed to use the new GCONF_SCHEMAS macro (similar to MAN). Details about the new macro can be found at http://www.FreeBSD.org/gnome/docs/porting.html and bsd.gnome.mk. 20040803: AUTHOR: ade@FreeBSD.org As part of the ongoing autotools cleanup, devel/autoconf has been replaced with devel/autoconf253, and devel/automake with devel/automake15. Consumers of the various autotools knobs from bsd.autotools.mk should not notice any differences. This update completes the transition of autotools to true versioned packages (cf: tcl/tk) 20040723: AUTHOR: anholt@FreeBSD.org The XFREE86_VERSION variable is replaced by the X_WINDOW_SYSTEM variable. XFREE86_VERSION may no longer be used by ports Makefiles. X_WINDOW_SYSTEM may currently be set to xorg, xfree86-4, and xfree86-3 (please use :L in checking it). Several X_*_PORT variables are provided by bsd.port.mk which map to the appropriate port for the X_WINDOW_SYSTEM chosen. 20040719: AUTHOR: ale@FreeBSD.org There has been a big update to PHP ports and bsd.php.mk to add more flexibility and new features. Now a port may depend on a specific set of PHP extensions. To do so, simply replace: USE_PHP= yes with: USE_PHP= ext1 ext2 ext3 ... in the port Makefile. A list of all PHP extensions is included in bsd.php.mk. If the requirement is a build dependency too, the port should also define: USE_PHP_BUILD=yes Moreover, the new knob WANT_PHP_SCR has been added to indicate that the port requires the 'php' binary to run. Last but not least, many common operations to build/install/register a PHP extension can now be omitted from the port Makefile if it defines: USE_PHPEXT= yes For more information on this point and on additional variables, see bsd.php.mk. 20040717: AUTHOR: eik@FreeBSD.org OpenLDAP version 2.2 is now the default. When your port links against the openldap client libraries use USE_OPENLDAP= yes and do not depend on a particular version. A user (or package building cluster) can select the desired flavor with WANT_OPENLDAP_VER and WANT_OPENLDAP_SASL, but these must not be used in ports Makefiles. 20040709: AUTHOR: portmgr@FreeBSD.org USE_LIBTOOL_VER now configures a port to use the ports version of libtool instead of its included version. This was put in place to reduce the number of ad hoc patches to individual ports' libtools to prevent .la file installation as well as fix various threading problems. To restore the previous libtool behavior, use the new macro, USE_INC_LIBTOOL_VER. It works the exact same way as USE_LIBTOOL_VER in that it takes a libtool version as its argument. For example, to use the included version of libtool with extra hacks provided by libtool-1.5, add the following to your Makefile: USE_INC_LIBTOOL_VER= 15 To use the ports version of libtool-1.5, add the following to your Makefile: USE_LIBTOOL_VER= 15 Note: these macros are mutually exclusive. Your port should only include one or the other if it needs to make use of libtool. 20040707: AUTHOR: gnome@FreeBSD.org The way GConf schema files are installed has changed to support the upcoming GNOME 2.8 GConf. Details about the change can be found at http://www.FreeBSD.org/gnome/docs/porting.html. All existing ports have been converted to the new style, and portlint has been updated to flag old-style GConf schema installation. 20040610: AUTHOR: portmgr@FreeBSD.org The following behavioral or feature changes were committed: * Support verbose index builds with INDEX_VERBOSE * Support glob expressions in USE_GETTEXT to allow more flexibility in the face of future gratuitous library version bumps by the gettext developers: USE_GETTEXT=yEs # Works as before (case-insensitive) USE_GETTEXT=[5-7] # Accepts any of those libintl.so.x versions # in the LIB_DEPENDS * Extend 'make search' support to allow much more flexible searching From the PR: Besides the good old key and name variables, this patch adds support for path, info, maint, cat, bdeps, and rdeps, which match on the appropriate fields, plus their exclusion counterparts: xkey, xname, etc. Examples: Find all ports whose names contain "pear-" but not "html" or "http": make search name=pear- xname='ht(tp|ml)' Find ports whose names contain "pear-" and which don't have apache listed in build-time dependencies: make search name=pear- xbdeps=apache The positive variables (name, key, maint, etc) are AND-ed, their negative versions are OR-ed; in other words, matching any x- variable will cause the port to be skipped, mismatch on any non-x- variable will cause it to be skipped. Examples: Find ports that are both in the 'www' category and maintained by Thierry Thomas: make search maint=thierry@ path=/www/ Find ports in the 'archivers' category that are either not orphaned or don't have "zip" in their names (contrived): make search cat=archivers xmaint=ports@freebsd xname=zip It is possible to select fields to display. Example: Find PEAR ports that don't build-depend on apache, displaying only Port:, Path:, and Info: lines: make search name=pear- xbdeps=apache display=name,path,info Case-sensitivity can now be turned of with icase=1. Example: Find ports with @freebsd.org maintainer addresses without the "proper" capitalization (@FreeBSD.org), display their paths and maintainer addresses: make search maint=@freebsd\\.org icase=0 display=maint,path The key and xkey variables can be limited in scope to displayed fields by setting keylim to 1. Example: Find ports that contain "apache" in either of the name, path, info fields, ignore the rest of the record (dependencies, maintainer address, etc): make search key=apache display=name,path,info keylim=1 The following variables can be set e.g. in /etc/make.conf to control default search behavior: PORTSEARCH_DISPLAY_FIELDS?=name,path,info,maint,index,bdeps,rdeps PORTSEARCH_KEYLIM?=0 PORTSEARCH_XKEYLIM?=0 PORTSEARCH_IGNORECASE?=1 * Extend USE_PERL5_BUILD and USE_PERL5 to add EXTRACT and PATCH dependencies * While building index, treat non-existent dependencies as fatal. Previously the error was being hidden by the stderr redirection. * Don't always retry BROKEN ports when package building (it is taking too much time to continually rebuild ports that are usually going to really be broken). Set TRYBROKEN if you want to attempt a build of a BROKEN port. 20040604: AUTHOR: ade@FreeBSD.org Over the past few weeks, we have been testing the next incarnation of ports/Mk/bsd.autotools.mk on the road to bringing at least some semblance of sanity back to this corner of the ports collection. By far and away the easiest way to see the changes will be to view the new file once committed, but here is a summary of the changes: 1. USE_LIBTOOL, USE_AUTOCONF, USE_AUTOHEADER, USE_AUTOMAKE have been fully deprecated. Ports attempting to use these variables after the commit will error out, and most obviously break INDEX generation, with a helpful error message. Instead, ports must now specifically choose the version of any of these tools that they need with the corresponding USE_*_VER variables. Note that these variables understand any and all versions of autotools ports in the tree, there is no longer a need to have specific version numbers hardcoded in the infrastructure of bsd.autotools.mk (as there is now). In particular, this will immediately open up automake18 and autoconf259 for general use and beating. 2. Similarly for WANT_LIBTOOL, WANT_AUTOCONF, and WANT_AUTOMAKE. Again, these have been fully deprecated, and the equivalent WANT_*_VER versions should be used. In order to preserve existing behavior for these variables, please note the 20040314 entry in ports/CHANGES for the appropriate version numbers to use for any ports in the GNATS queue. Both WANT_* and USE_* bring in the relevant tool as a build dependency, and set up a reasonably large number of variables pointing to the right programs to be using in the port. The only difference at the moment, is that USE_* will run an extra autotools-related configuration step, whereas WANT_* merely requests the environment. 3. The helper knob USE_LIBLTDL has been added which currently simply adds a LIB dependency on the libltdl port. 4. Three new variables have been introduced, WANT_{LIBTOOL,AUTOCONF,AUTOMAKE}_RUN=yes. These variables will do nothing by themselves (a Work-In-Progress), but if the appropriate autotool version is defined (either through WANT_*_VER or USE_*_VER), this will add the relevant dependency to RUN_DEPENDS. Steps 3 and 4 now essentially negate the need for any kind of direct dependency within a non-autotools port Makefile on devel/autoconf*, devel/automake*, devel/libtool*, and devel/libltdl. 20040416: AUTHOR: java@FreeBSD.org There has been a couple of bsd.java.mk tweaks and fixes. . Features from Stage 2 has been removed. A port can no longer use the JDK dependency features by setting JAVA_HOME. Use JAVA_PREFERRED_PORT instead (see below). . The default JDK port now depends on OS version: java/diablo-jdk13 for 4.x, and java/jdk14 for 5.x . It is now possible for the user (and the porters) to define a list of preferred JDK ports to build and run ports. The port will use the first JDK port from the list that matches the requirements specified in the Makefile. JAVA_PREFERRED_PORT contains a list of suitable JDK ports (sorted by preference). Names for JDKs may be found in bsd.java.mk, listed in ${_JAVA_PORTS_ALL} (e.g. "JAVA_PORT_NATIVE_BSDJAVA_1_4"). . JAVA_PORT_VERSION is now set to the full version number of the chosen JDK (e.g. "1.4.2"). Porters will find hints regarding how to obtain the same behavior as before in the header of bsd.java.mk. 20040414: AUTHOR: gnome@FreeBSD.org When writing a port that uses GTK+ 2.X, you can now list the dependency with "USE_GNOME=gtk20" which is preferable to LIB_DEPENDS because the GTK+ library version only needs to be changed in bsd.gnome.mk. Please see http://www.FreeBSD.org/gnome/docs/porting.html for all the available GNOME components as well as detailed instructions on creating ports that use the GNOME infrastructure. 20040404: AUTHOR: gnome@FreeBSD.org The glib20 and gtk20 ports were updated to 2.4.0. This new version is completely source and binary compatible with the previous 2.2.x series. However, certain API calls have been deprecated. If your port defines the following macros, they may refuse to build with the new versions of glib20 and gtk20: GTK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED GDK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED G_DISABLE_DEPRECATED The temporary solution is to either patch your port's Makefiles to, or use an in-place regular expression to remove these macros. The more permanent solution is to wait until the port's authors update their code to use current API calls. 20040402: AUTHOR: java@FreeBSD.org There has been a big update to bsd.java.mk. However, this update is mostly backwards compatible, so it shouldn't affect most java port maintainers. There is some new functionality and minor changes worth documenting here though. bsd.java.mk now provides a new set of macros to be used by ports that require a JDK. When USE_JAVA is set, the following variables may be set in order to give to precision regarding the requirements of the port: . JAVA_VERSION A list of space-separated suitable java versions for the port. An optional "+" allows you to specify a range of versions. (allowed values: 1.1[+] 1.2[+] 1.3[+] 1.4[+]) (NOTE: Used to be set by bsd.java.mk) . JAVA_OS A list of space-separated suitable JDK port operating systems for the port. (allowed values: native linux) (NOTE: Used to be set by bsd.java.mk) . JAVA_VENDOR A list of space-separated suitable JDK port vendors for the port. (allowed values: freebsd bsdjava sun ibm blackdown) (NOTE: Used to be set by bsd.java.mk) . JAVA_BUILD When set, it means that the selected JDK port should be added to build dependencies for the port. . JAVA_RUN This variable works exactly the same as JAVA_BUILD but regarding run dependencies. Here are some of the macros defined after setting USE_JAVA: . JAVA_PORT The name of the JDK port (e.g. java/jdk14) . JAVA_HOME The home of the JDK port in the local base . JAVA_PORT_VERSION The version of the JDK port. (NOTE: Used to be JAVA_VERSION, see above) . JAVA_PORT_OS The operating system used by the JDK port. (NOTE: Used to be JAVA_OS, see above) . JAVA_PORT_VENDOR The vendor of the JDK port. (NOTE: Used to be JAVA_VENDOR, see above) Plus many macros for the commonly used java executables: APPLETVIEWER, JAR, JAVA, JAVAC, JAVADOC, JAVAH, JAVAP, JAVA_KEYTOOL, JAVA_N2A, JAVA_POLICYTOOL, JAVA_SERIALVER, RMIC, RMID and RMIREGISTRY. bsd.java.mk 2.0 is mostly backward compatible with the previous version, save for the notes above and changed internal variables. Using the new features is strongly encouraged, since the old bsd.java.mk 1.0 features will be deprecated and may be removed in the future. You will find more detailed info (as well as a quick tutorial) at: http://www.esil.univ-mrs.fr/~hquiroz/freebsd/bsd.java.mk-2.0.html 20040316: AUTHOR: gnome@FreeBSD.org The print/freetype2 port has been updated to 2.1.7. This update changes some of the internal FreeType API. Applications may need to be patched to support this new API. If a source files includes freetype/freetype.h, make sure ft2build.h is included before freetype/freetype.h. The proper way to do this is: #include #include FT_FREETYPE_H However, the following will work as well, but is deprecated: #include #include 20040314: AUTHOR: ade@FreeBSD.org USE_LIBTOOL, USE_AUTOCONF, and USE_AUTOMAKE are now considered deprecated, and will be removed on or around June 1st 2004. All ports should now choose the specific version of the tool, using USE_LIBTOOL_VER, USE_AUTOCONF_VER, and USE_AUTOMAKE_VER. The old "system default" behavior can be written as follows: Old New USE_LIBTOOL=yes USE_LIBTOOL_VER=13 USE_AUTOCONF=yes USE_AUTOCONF_VER=213 USE_AUTOMAKE=yes USE_AUTOMAKE_VER=14 20040304: AUTHOR: eik@FreeBSD.org New variable MASTER_SITE_SOURCEFORGE_EXTENDED. It has the ten official sourceforge.net download mirrors, whereas MASTER_SITE_SOURCEFORGE only has five. To check if your port is mirrored there, go to click on ${DISTFILES} and you'll see five or ten mirrors, corresponding to the variables above. 20040226: AUTHOR: knu@FreeBSD.org The default version of Ruby is now 1.8 on all platforms including the i386. Users on the i386 platform need to follow the instructions described in the UPDATING file to cope with this upgrade. Next time ruby is major upgraded, you won't need to do this kind of messy work because some subtle changes have been made to the ruby port infrastructure to make it easier to handle multiple versions of ruby. 20040217: AUTHOR: gnome@FreeBSD.org Mozilla will now default to using GTK2, and will only compile against Gtk+-1.2 if explicitly requested. This is in exact opposite to the old behavior. The valid values of WITH_MOZILLA are now: mozilla (www/mozilla, GTK2) mozilla-devel (www/mozilla-devel, GTK2) mozilla-gtk1 (www/mozilla-gtk1, GTK1) mozilla-devel-gtk1 (www/mozilla-devel-gtk1, GTK1) As before, WITH_MOZILLA can be set in /etc/make.conf, but doing so is not advised unless you desire the development versions. GTK2 browsers will automatically compile against GTK2 mozilla, and GTK1 browsers (galeon1, galeon1, and galeon1) will automatically compile against GTK1. Again, the only people who will need to take action are those who desire development versions (which are inactive at this time anyway). Those who want GTK1 mozilla-devel must set WITH_MOZILLA=mozilla-devel-gtk1 or they will be pleasantly surprised with their very own GTK2 installation on the next update. WITH_MOZILLA=mozilla-gtk2 and WITH_MOZILLA=mozilla-devel-gtk2 are still honored for the time being, but their use is now deprecated. Any new ports are not required to consider their values, and so eventually WITH_MOZILLA _will_ have to be changed. Hopefully galeon2 can catch up to peoples' expectations from galeon1 soon, and we can remove the GTK1 ports altogether. 20040204: AUTHOR: portmgr@FreeBSD.org The bsd.php.mk file has been moved out of the lang/php4 port into the Mk directory. This will make it much easier to include PHP support in PHP-dependent ports. Instead of including bsd.php.mk directly, a port can simply set USE_PHP=yes, and the ports system with Do the Right Thing. All trailing whitespace has been removed from bsd.port.mk. Enhance the new OPTIONS code by only including saved options if the port defines OPTIONS, attempt to use LATEST_LINK as the unique name for a port (fall back to ${PKGNAMEPREFIX}${PORTNAME} otherwise), bring the ===> messages in line with the existing ones by using PKGNAME instead of PORTNAME, use PKGNAME in the dialog, use ECHO_CMD instead of ECHO_MSG to write the OPTIONSFILE, display a message during compilation indicating that user-specified options have been found, and make the output of the showconfig target a little more user-friendly. A new USE_ICONV macro has been added that takes the place of an explicit LIB_DEPENDS on converters/libiconv. This will help with future shared lib version bumps. A new USE_GETTEXT macro has been added that takes the place of an explicit LIB_DEPENDS on devel/gettext. This will help with future shared lib version bumps. Module::Build is a system for building, testing, and installing Perl modules. It will eventually replace the obsoleted ExtUtils::MakeMaker. Many new Perl modules have already switched to using Build.PL instead of Makefile.PL. To facilitate building those modules, a new PERL_MODBUILD macro has been added. Use that in place of PERL_CONFIGURE when porting Perl modules that make use of the Module::Build framework. Certain ports want to check for the availability of SDL libraries before including them. This change adds a new WANT_SDL macro similar to WANT_GNOME. By setting this, the porter indicates that her port can optional use SDL if present on the system. WANT_SDL should be defined _before_ bsd.port.pre.mk is included. After including bsd.port.pre.mk, the list of available SDL components will be returned in the HAVE_SDL macro. For details on how to process this component list, refer to bsd.sdl.mk. The OpenBSD and NetBSD projects diverged from the FreeBSD ports tree years ago, and it no longer make sense to include obsolete references to incorrect paths in the FreeBSD ports system. This change removes the NetBSD and OpenBSD PORTSDIR compatibility bits from bsd.port.mk. The comment for PKGDIR read, ``A direction containing any package creating file.'' The word ``direction'' should be ``directory.'' This has been fixed. A new DIRNAME macro has been added that points to /usr/bin/dirname. All direct use of dirname in ports can be switched to this macro. Direct use of commands dirname, id, and rm have been corrected to use their macro equivalents instead. Some useless ${HEAD} -n 1 statements have been removed. A strange comment in the do-install target and an out of place ``fi'' have been fixed as well. On 5-CURRENT after the 5.2-RELEASE split, the default Perl version has been updated from 5.6.1 to 5.8.2. As well, some Perl definitions in bsd.port.mk have been moved to their correct locations which corrects the PERL_LEVEL definition. The following optimizations have been added to the ports system to speed up recursive operations such as make describe, make index, make ignorelist, etc. bsd.gnome.mk is now only included if a port defines USE_GNOME, WANT_GNOME, and/or USE_GTK. More variables are cached and passed down through bsd.port.subdir.mk. Perl is no longer invoked when a simple ``echo'' will do. More subshell variable assignments have been hidden behind conditionals so that the commands are not spawned every time. Finally, dependency lists are only constructed if ports actually declare dependencies. These optimizations give make index approximately a 43% speedup. If CPUFLAGS is not defined (this _CPUCFLAGS is empty), trying to remove _CPUCFLAGS from CFLAGS will result in an error. This change fixes that. On recent versions of 5.X, /etc/rc.subr exists, and there is no reason to install another copy in ${LOCALBASE}/etc. The reason this was ever done was to workaround some build issues on bento. However, testing OSVERSION seems to work in spite of those build issues. The ports system now supports MySQL 3.23, 4.0, 4.1, and 5.0. Also, the ability to scale to newer versions was also but in place. An .endif comment indicated that the .if block checked WANT_MYSQL when, in fact, it was checking WANT_MYSQL_VER. This has been corrected. The PTHREAD{CFLAGS,LIBS} macros have been made overridable on all versions of FreeBSD to allow for alternate threading implementations (e.g. -lc_r, -lthr, -mt, etc.). The default threading library has been changed to -lpthread from -lc_r on -CURRENT. The new SIZE support broke distfiles fetching on FreeBSD < 4.8. On those versions of FreeBSD, the SIZE distfile attribute is now ignored. Also, defining DISABLE_SIZE in, for example, /etc/make.conf, will ignore the SIZE attribute on all versions of FreeBSD. This is useful with alternate values for FETCH_CMD. A new vulnerabilities database has been added to the ports system in order to keep more accurate, up-to-date, track of security vulnerabilities. The ports system now knows how to query that database and dynamically prevents the installation of vulnerable ports. In order to allow for more rapid development of the package tools, the ports system will prefer to use pkg_* tools found in ${LOCALBASE} over those in the base system. However, all PKG_* macros are still overridable. A new physical category, net-mgmt, has been created to house network management ports. The /var/db/port.mkversion file never really took off, and is now very obsolete. Replace the code used to generate and check this file with a simple OSVERSION check. The ports system now requires FreeBSD 4.3 or higher. The last round of bsd.*.mk changes broke ports that had duplicate distinfo entries (e.g. linux_base). This is now fixed. Along with this fix, only distfiles with a bad checksum will be refetched, where as distfiles missing from distinfo will not be refetched. The PLIST_{DIRS,FILES} macros were passed to the final package list unchanged by PLIST_SUB. This is not always desirable. Now, those macros are passed through PLIST_SUB. The previous OPTIONS code assumed users would be running port build as root. If this was not the case, OPTIONS configuration would fail. Now, the bits of the config and rmconfig targets that require write access to system directories are run under SU_CMD. The makesum target will now add a SIZE attribute for each distfile by default. This can be overridden by defining NO_SIZE in a port's Makefile. Note: this could probably be expanded to omit SIZE attributes for specific distfiles in the future. 20040129: AUTHOR: trevor@FreeBSD.org SIZE lines in distinfo files: if you set USE_SIZE when you do "make makesum", the byte sizes of the distfiles will be listed in the distinfo file. Then, if a distfile is replaced on its master site with one of a different size than that listed, "make fetch" will fail with a "size mismatch" error before downloading the file and the user will be asked to fetch the file by hand. Also, a user will know the size of the distfiles before fetching and decide to fetch later. 20040129: AUTHOR: erwin@FreeBSD.org Start of CHANGES file.
