https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D211953 Bug ID: 211953 Summary: r420340 breaks installation and packaging of empty directories Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: Ports Framework Assignee: portmgr@FreeBSD.org Reporter: dim@FreeBSD.org CC: freebsd-ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org I just got bitten by a nasty side effect of r420340 [1] ("Move USE_BDB and PLIST_DIRSTRY to the unsupported section, all the ports have been converted"). The effect is that empty directories don't get installed or packaged anymore, and this can lead to all kinds of interesting errors. In my case, for example, xmlcatmgr failed to install correctly, because it couldn't find /usr/local/share/xml. It looks like r420340 erroneously removes usage of ${PLIST_DIRS}, and so the PLIST_DIRS do not end up in the .PLIST.mktmp files anymore. This needs to be fixed ASAP, since it breaks many packages.
