Subject: How is the ${WSTAGEDIR}/METALOG file generated?

As far as i can see, the METALOG file plays an important role in pkgbase, it is used by the mtree-to-plist.awk script, to generate the per package p= list file, e.g runtime.plist, runtime-debug.plist, runtime-manuals.plist, etc. For the assignment of a file to a package the tag package=3D... seems rele= vent. e.g "./etc/mtree/BSD.root.dist type=3Dfile uname=3Droot gname=3Dwheel mode= =3D0444 size=3D1613 tags=3Dpackage=3Druntime" I found some places where these tags are defined (https://reviews.freebsd.= org/D20173), but how the entries end up in the METALOG file is hard to find. Can somebo= dy point me to the relevant places? To the METALOG file itself, here are some stats from a just finished "make packages" run (first line #mtree 2.0 removed): METALOG =2D------ lines total: 35293 with package tag: 33243 without package tag: 2051 type=3Ddir: 3370 type=3Dfile: 30484 type=3Dlink: 1440 there are a lot of duplicate entries in the file, e.g. 10x ./usr/share/snmp/mibs type=3Ddir uname=3Droot gname=3Dwheel mode=3D0= 755 tags=3Dpackage=3Druntime 13x ./usr/share/snmp/defs type=3Ddir uname=3Droot gname=3Dwheel mode=3D0= 755 tags=3Dpackage=3Druntime 15x ./boot type=3Ddir uname=3Droot gname=3Dwheel mode=3D0755 tags=3Dpack= age=3Druntime 79x ./etc type=3Ddir uname=3Droot gname=3Dwheel mode=3D0755 tags=3Dpacka= ge=3Druntime This seems not to be a problem, but pkg complains about files/dirs already added to the package. The stats for a sort -u METALOG look like this: METALOG.sortu =2D------------ lines total: 34640 with package tag: 32598 without package tag: 2042 type=3Ddir: 2884 type=3Dfile: 30316 type=3Dlink: 1440 there are still some semi duplicate entries, they differ only on added tag= s: ./etc type=3Ddir uname=3Droot gname=3Dwheel mode=3D0755 ./etc type=3Ddir uname=3Droot gname=3Dwheel mode=3D0755 tags=3Dpackage=3Dr= untime ... ./boot/lua type=3Ddir uname=3Droot gname=3Dwheel mode=3D0755 ./boot/lua type=3Ddir uname=3Droot gname=3Dwheel mode=3D0755 tags=3Dpackag= e=3Druntime ... ./etc/devd type=3Ddir uname=3Droot gname=3Dwheel mode=3D0755 ./etc/devd type=3Ddir uname=3Droot gname=3Dwheel mode=3D0755 tags=3Dpackag= e=3Druntime And one final stat: the sum of lines in all *.plist files: cat *.plist | wc -l: 33243 cat *.plist | sort -u | wc -l 32598 Is it neccessary to add package=3D... tags to the above 2051/2042 lines ab= ove? Are these files/dirs missing from packages? Directories could be created b= y pkg during installation, but i only found the relevant directive in the runtime.ucl file: ... directories { /dev =3D "y"; /tmp =3D "y"; ... =2D- Martin
