Hmmm... Since my initial PR, I have found several strange behaviours with Chrome Registry => see a first patch for www/mozex/pkg-install.xpi included into PR ports/58847. The important point is that this is not dangerous: one can remove these files, and it's possible to rebuild the Chrome's directory. I'm using this method on my machine without problem. But when you install / deinstall several extensions, reinstall mozilla, etc., you break pkg-plist & /var/db/pkg/mozilla/+CONTENTS. I have found how to minimize these deinstallation breakages, but a patch of mozilla (and mozilla*) is required (=> Cc: to gnome@FreeBSD.org). In the current Makefile, the registrry is built during post-build:, but under ${WRKSRC}. The following patch builds it again in the install directory: --- mozilla.diff begins here --- diff -urN www/mozilla.orig/Makefile www/mozilla/Makefile --- www/mozilla.orig/Makefile Thu Dec 4 18:42:23 2003 +++ www/mozilla/Makefile Sun Jan 11 11:50:08 2004 @@ -288,6 +288,7 @@ done post-install: + @${SH} ${PKGINSTALL} ${PKGNAME} POST-INSTALL @${CHMOD} -R u-w ${PREFIX}/lib/${MOZILLA}/components @${CAT} ${PKGMESSAGE} diff -urN www/mozilla.orig/pkg-install www/mozilla/pkg-install --- www/mozilla.orig/pkg-install Thu Jan 1 01:00:00 1970 +++ www/mozilla/pkg-install Sat Nov 29 09:38:20 2003 @@ -0,0 +1,38 @@ +#!/bin/sh +# +# $FreeBSD$ +# +# Date created: Mon Nov 29, 2003 +# Whom: Thierry Thomas (<thierry@pompo.net>) +# Fix the chrome registry. + +umask 022 +PATH=/bin:/usr/bin + +[ "x$1" = "x" ] && exit 1 +[ "x$2" != "xPOST-INSTALL" ] && exit 0 + +PREFIX=${PKG_PREFIX:-/usr/X11R6} + +PKG_NAME=${1%%-[0-9._]*} +PKG_ROOT=$(echo $PKG_NAME | sed 's/-firebird//') +if [ $PKG_NAME = $PKG_ROOT ]; then +MOZBIN=mozilla-bin +else +MOZBIN=MozillaFirebird-bin +fi + +MOZDIR=`find $PREFIX/lib -name $MOZBIN -exec dirname {} \; | head -n 1` +REGXPCOM=$MOZDIR/regxpcom +REGCHROME=$MOZDIR/regchrome + +echo "===> Building Chrome's registry..." +rm -rf $MOZDIR/chrome/overlayinfo +rm -f $MOZDIR/chrome/*.rdf +mkdir -p $MOZDIR/chrome/overlayinfo +rm -f $MOZDIR/component.reg + +LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$MOZDIR MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=$MOZDIR $MOZDIR/regxpcom || true +LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$MOZDIR MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=$MOZDIR $MOZDIR/regchrome || true + +exit 0 --- mozilla.diff ends here --- With this patch, deinstallations go better, but I'm not certain that it addresses every case. -- Th.
