>Description:
When installing the dns/bind97 port using "make install", it creates a set of symlinks in /var/named${PREFIX}/etc:
blee@eclipse ~ $ ls -l /var/named/usr/local/etc
total 0K
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 22 Oct 21 17:51 named.conf -> /etc/namedb/named.conf
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 20 Oct 21 17:51 rndc.key -> /etc/namedb/rndc.key
However, these symlinks are created by the "post-install" Makefile target:
.if !defined(WITHOUT_LINKS) && !defined(WITH_REPLACE_BASE)
${MKDIR} /var/named${PREFIX}/etc
.for DIR in ${PREFIX}/etc /var/named${PREFIX}/etc
.for FILE in named.conf rndc.key
${LN} -sf /etc/namedb/${FILE} ${DIR}/${FILE}
.endfor
.endfor
.endif
Therefore, the symlinks are not created when creating a binary package using "make package" and using pkg_add(1).
The dns/bind97 port should provide a pkg-install file so that these symlinks are also created when using binary packages.
>How-To-Repeat:
Create a binary package:
make -C /usr/ports/dns/bind97 package clean
Then use pkg_add(1) to install the binary package.
>Fix:
Add a pkg-install script to the dns/bind97 port that creates the relevant symlinks.
