I've got a port I wish to submit, but there are a few problems I
encountered when I followed the port testing procedure in the Porter's
Handbook. These are associated with the XFree86 libraries. I don't
think this is a fault at my end though:
# make deinstall
===> Deinstalling for xmailwatcher-1.6
pkg_delete: couldn't open dependency file `/var/db/pkg/XFree86-libraries-4.0.1_2/+REQUIRED_BY'
# pkg_add xmailwatcher-1.6.tgz
pkg_add: could not find package XFree86-libraries-4.0.1_2 !
# grep XFREE86_VERSION /etc/make.conf
XFREE86_VERSION= 4
I think this is down to having USE_IMAKE set in the Makefile: this
implies USE_XLIB ( in /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk ) which appends to
LIB_DEPENDS the value ${PORTSDIR}/x11/XFree86-4-libraries, which are
formed from the distfile X401src-1.tgz. I've built my XFree86 4 setup
from ${PORTSDIR}/x11/XFree86-4 which depends on X402src-1.tgz.
Should I just submit the thing ?
( One last minor thing, the original distfile has no version number on
it. I've over-ridden DISTNAME - is this the right thing to do ? )
Cheers, Harry
