Overriding the do-extract target is exactly what I was looking for. Something I didn't know I could do. It worked perfectly, thanks! Unfortunately there are way too many files with various owners to try and fix the permissions afterwards or in the pkg-plist. (I did consider creating a script to traverse everything, save the permissions, and apply it after the fact, but I wanted something easier and more elegant, and this is great!) Thank you again! -Joseph On 06/27/2018 07:22 PM, Bob Eager wrote: > On Wed, 27 Jun 2018 19:06:44 -0400 > Joseph Ward <jbwlists@hilltopgroup.com> wrote: > >> When I "make extract", the "do-extract" target is performing a chmod >> and chown on everything, as seen from the following excerpt from the >> bsd.port.mk file: > . > . > . > >> Short of commenting those lines out (which I really don't want to do >> because I have 0 idea why it's there or what I'd break with other >> ports) is there any way at all to maintain the ownership of the >> files? > If the ownership is well defined and not complex, you could add a > post-extract: target in your Makefile and fix up the ownerships then. > > Or, you could override the do-extract: target with your own, and > extract the files as you want (probably replicating part of the real > do-extract: target). > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list > https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
