The branch stable/14 has been updated by 0mp: URL: https://cgit.FreeBSD.org/src/commit/?id=c7608bcae4e008a8b9c7f59ee4ab9a0804fe2c9e commit c7608bcae4e008a8b9c7f59ee4ab9a0804fe2c9e Author: Mateusz Piotrowski <0mp@FreeBSD.org> AuthorDate: 2025-09-10 08:52:15 +0000 Commit: Mateusz Piotrowski <0mp@FreeBSD.org> CommitDate: 2025-09-13 11:31:22 +0000 ports.7: Fix example of passing variables on the command line make(1)'s -D flag does not allow for setting the value of the variable. It just defines the variable and sets its value to 1. In fact, make(1) treats "=" as just another character in the variable name: ``` $ make -DA=2 -V A # Output is just an empty line. $ make -DA=2 -V A=2 # Variable "A=2" is defined and set to "1". 1 ``` Fixes: d25f7d324a9d ports.7: Document DEBUG_FLAGS and the process of debugging ports MFC after: 3 days (cherry picked from commit 9365a328596c9f156deaa15fa018b76b3a6e6b18) --- share/man/man7/ports.7 | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/share/man/man7/ports.7 b/share/man/man7/ports.7 index 6650399cfc67..2b6f17965fce 100644 --- a/share/man/man7/ports.7 +++ b/share/man/man7/ports.7 @@ -25,7 +25,7 @@ .\" (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THE USE OF .\" THIS SOFTWARE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE. .\" -.Dd March 21, 2025 +.Dd September 10, 2025 .Dt PORTS 7 .Os .Sh NAME @@ -683,7 +683,7 @@ WITH_DEBUG_PORTS= mail/dovecot security/krb5 .Pp It is also possible to use the debug variables on the command line: .Bd -literal -offset 2n -.Li # Ic make -DWITH_DEBUG DEBUG_FLAGS="-g -O0" build +.Li # Ic make WITH_DEBUG DEBUG_FLAGS="-g -O0" build .Ed .Pp See the
