Hi folks, As many of you have seen in the commit messages, I've committed some scripts to automatically build packages in parallel. You can find them in /usr/ports/Tools/portbuild. However, some ports don't build for whatever reason. I put the error logs from the latest run in http://www.freebsd.org/~asami/errorlogs/ if some of you can take a look, that will be great. There are three things unique to the way this script works. @ It uses a fresh chroot dir so it can always start from an empty /usr/local and /usr/X11R6. A port that tries to run "ps" or some other stuff can fail becuase of that. @ As mentioned above, it starts from an empty /usr/{local,X11R6}. Dependencies are automatically installed as packages before the build (and DEPENDS_TARGET is set to "/usr/bin/true" so they won't be built later). @ It uses a read-only /usr/ports (NFS mounted from a central server) and WRKDIRPREFIX to build the ports outside the ports tree. Some ports don't work correctly with WRKDIRPREFIX. Also, there is a problem with our NFS that causes totally weird transient errors (like it can't cd to a directory that it just created) so ignore those. I have already fixed a lot of ports but I need your help. If some of you can take a look at the logs and see if you can figure out what's going on, that's great. Thanks!
