I've never created or modified a port so I'm a complete newbie. I'm
using bacula 1.34.6 which is the current version in the ports tree.
However my HP DLT30 (DLT2000) tape drive isn't working properly with the
software. I posted to the bacula list and have been directed to upgrade
to the current version of 1.36.0.
So I thought, why don't I learn about ports? After all, it shouldn't be
to hard to modify a Makefile to get a newer version and then I could
share my updates with the port maintainer. I've picked through the
Porters Handbook and bsd.port.mk and found that I needed to change
"PORTVERSION=" from "1.34.6" to "1.36.0". Then I found that I had to
run "make makesum" to create the distinfo file.
Now when I run "portupgrade -f bacula", it fails during patching (output
follows). I suspect that the line numbers have changed and I need to
create a new diff (something I've never done before). I suspect I need
to make a copy of the appropriate file in the source code, make these
changes to it, and then run diff with the appropriate switches. However
I have no idea what file I might be looking for. Can anyone nudge me in
the right direction? Am I close?
Thanks,
Drew
