--wac7ysb48OaltWcw Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hello To really get portupgrade to work properly again after my patch for CAN-2005-0610 (portupgrade 20041226_2) I need to find a good location for the pkgdb.fixme flagfile. Before 20041226_2 it was in /tmp or /var/tmp but for 20041226_2 it was moved to /var/db/pkg, which turned out to be a bad idea (see ports/81088 and mails on this list). So, I need to have a known static location for pkgdb.fixme which is in a directory only writeable by root. So does anyone suggestions on a good location? The only ones I can come up with, which are not really good, are /var/run or /var/db/portupgrade... Note, the patches I posted before (port-portupgrade-CAN-2005-0610_2.patch and port-portupgrade-CAN-2005-0610_3.patch) unfortunatly does not work properly in all cases :-/. --=20 Simon L.
