Well, I did not write this out of spite, I waited a long while before ask= ing this, talking with my fellows portmgr, and they feel the same way as = I do. > I think you're forgetting that pkgconf does not exist solely for the us= e > of the ports tree, but also for the use of developers who write softwar= e > on FreeBSD. Your commit message said : "This renders 82.6% of Mk/Uses/pathfix.mk obso= lete." Which is the policy change we are against because it was not discu= ssed first. I have nothing against making the life of developers easier, but this is = not the message your commit was conveying. At all. And not at all what Ti= jl and you talked about afterwards. Now, instead of plainly reverting your commit, what you could do is add a= non default option to pkgconf adding lib/pkgconfig to the search path. B= ut it must be off by default. But you have to[1] do the first one or the = second possibility I gave you. 1: rule 5 of https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/articles/committers-guide/rul= es.html --=20 Mathieu Arnold --J9UrJE8rLjs5O1JTm2kfXKSPF2hKNPpbf-- --Sxds0uMXB1fq6qhs4tE7GwAtfbBDLbD9x Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQJ8BAEBCgBmBQJYv/0rXxSAAAAAAC4AKGlzc3Vlci1mcHJAbm90YXRpb25zLm9w ZW5wZ3AuZmlmdGhob3JzZW1hbi5uZXQzQUI2OTc4OUQyRUQxMjEwNjQ0MEJBNUIz QTQ1MTZGMzUxODNDRTQ4AAoJEDpFFvNRg85Ih/YP/38V6TOZJuqYTXDWR9aBUUDv qPKnfhr/zgDl5kbcqgLyqe1tU+I0G+d2KlsDw/nfM5Qw2bdWKtNhbD5xro40njel UYuWw+FPtdvBkgOA7j4/Hmx13rXV7/j6Lb0K52GhcLdYnvlqi+MdX0P4ohHpaBLM UAc0SBpJuUwA1//5LAbE5DlLKEE/4tRAFYIt6yX2hkAg06l1ccynCI+IbWqFHTKR fpuM4CQwm5rMS/rT5GoYZaAUB4daFgLx5O9LmgdO5ot1GiFt6SrAQ4ZGnAYTKLiY HFQY7xG1xqni+3AUE6hT395Ow1GiAmpHQgsXhA7AtpNVqEDhYUdoCeoXepJUCK+j HB0AK+ji+PQBfGIm8cTrOAzBoLxTEAjBk0l2qEKgsKjUlR/ESu90NLRf4opxMBDB NtngZMD/Vzbcn+dzw/W/uktUxdMafzZxgbtcR2vyy+0Ynt0xht9odIVVCALSCKaE CUwjtsNadiypJwClyL2H0SIsFYLdyfjGx/gEcX4UYT6keJxmbsX1rXFzULBVhXjE wJEovllH1U6bYrtGgiRwd/c1Ukf2o+hBD7990h+KNZH4Q1PmU9a5EbODsUOZ+/ZG 1s0274A5hia6q2ksV0I44mB8Gk415XDT9bEhiJigw3y1EDN1XORowf84vT3xkLaA lYnwbFKZ0+t7PSd/UctU =QMBe -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sxds0uMXB1fq6qhs4tE7GwAtfbBDLbD9x--
