Pav,
You asked me to submit a fix for ports-mgmt/bpm since I discovered it
was recently broken on 8. Here it is.
I can't figure out what it needs to include bsd.sys.mk for, and it seems
build/install/run fine without it. Maybe it's something historical and
now provided by ports' Mk universe.
Anyway, the patch just comments out that entire .if block and skips the
include.
I cc'ed the author/maintainer since it should have his notice and/or
input before going in. Also, he may be willing to shed some insight on
why bsd.sys.mk was included (and only for FreeBSD) in the first place.
In looking at files/patch-src::refresh.c, there is a big block comparing
the __FreeBSD_version number. This requires periodic updates to as
FreeBSD progresses through major version numbers. If we devise a way to
pass ${INDEXFILE} (see Mk/bsd.port.mk) directly to the build, the port
should keep working until something truly fundamental breaks.
Additionally, I cc'ed gnome@ because this port is included in the
x11/gnome2-power-tools meta and figured the above might be of interest
to them.
