Install a lib/libworkman.so.1 and change your PLIST. bsd.port.mk, if it detects an elf system (and you're in elf mode, as defined by objformat) then it will auto-truncate the lib name. If you're installing a lib/libworkman.so.1.4, that's a boo-boo. These are good questions, and you asking them is (hopefully, I'm an optimist) stopping someone else who IS clueless but WON'T ask, from turning in a hopelessly damaged port. You wouldn't believe the kind of stuff some folks turn in. Point of quality control: Your port should: 1) install without errors 2) make package without errors 3) make deinstall without errors, and then 4) portlint without errors. Follow those rules, and you'll actually have trouble turning in a bad port. ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include any kind of voice or data chuckr@glue.umd.edu | communications topic, C programming, and Unix. 213 Lakeside Drive Apt T-1 | Greenbelt, MD 20770 | I run picnic (FreeBSD-current) (301) 220-2114 | and jaunt (Solaris7). ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
