https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=202035 Bug ID: 202035 Summary: devel/ncurses: checksums a file that is potentially automatically regenerated Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: bapt@FreeBSD.org Reporter: peter@FreeBSD.org Assignee: bapt@FreeBSD.org Flags: maintainer-feedback?(bapt@FreeBSD.org) # pkg check -s ncurses-5.9.20150214: checksum mismatch for /usr/local/share/misc/terminfo.db The problem is, ncurses will regenerate this file when used by a caller that has write permission. eg: using a ncurses consumer as root. IMHO, it should be treated as a generated file (eg: not packaged, post-install runs a command to build it on the host, and removed unconditionally on uninstall). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
