BSD Ports Manipuator (BPM) is a graphical ports collection manager for
FreeBSD. It has a GTK+ 2.0 interface and allows you to add, remove, or
upgrade software packages on your system without requiring you to use a
command-line. In addition, it can display details about available,
installed, and out-of-date ports, as well as allowing you to search
based on port descriptions.
BPM uses the existing ports collection structure, allowing it to build
ports from source and integrate seamlessly with other tools.
This project started out as a clone of Ports Manager.app for
DarwinPorts.

*** NOTE ***
The preferences file format has changed, as have the periodic.conf(5) names.
Normally the default settings should be adequate, except when you need to
configure a proxy. Use $PREFIX/etc/portaudit.conf.sample as an example.
- moved portaudit to sbin
- clean up, merging stuff into the portaudit script
- better return codes and errors to stderr
- -f can check stdin now
- dropped ports tree auditing
- merged the periodic(8) scripts into one
- run daily auditing as `nobody'
portupgrade:
- Make -PP/--use-packages-only work better, just as I originally
intended. Now packages are correctly identified using
pkg_info(1), "LATEST_LINK" files are also properly detected.
Related informational messages have also been improved.
It turned out that the LATEST_LINK/NO_LATEST_LINK detection was
broken long ago and hasn't been working for long.
pkg_fetch(1):
- Properly rename a "latest link" file with a full package name with
version part.
pkgtools.conf(5):
- Improve and unify the method for pattern matching in MAKE_ARGS,
BEFOREBUILD, BEFOREDEINSTALL and AFTERINSTALL variables.
This should fix some cases where it looks like MAKE_ARGS entries
are ignored.

This is a package to test FreeBSD port auditing systems, e.g. portaudit
and the upcoming VuXML based system. Even though it installs no files,
it is listed in the portaudit database as vulnerable.
Kind of a EICAR-STANDARD-ANTIVIRUS-TEST-FILE

Since this is a prerelease version, it is mostly usable for
committers that want to contribute to the project, and can currently
not be relied upon as an extensive security auditing tool.

pkgdb(1):
- Add a new option -a/auto, used with -F/--fix, which turns on
automatic mode, in which pkgdb(1) only fixes discrepancies that can
be fixed 100% obviously and securely, and leaves the others.
- Make pkgdb(1) less verbose when -v is not specified.

- Fix a bug in shellwords() where it wrongly interprets \ in '...' as
meta-character. This bug or maybe feature was inherited from Perl's
shellwords.pl / Text::ParseWords.
Reported by: Gabriel Ambuehl <gabriel_ambuehl@buz.ch>
- The DEPORIGIN information is fully supported. It fixes DEPORIGIN
when a package is upgraded with a different port using -o/--origin,
and "pkgdb -aF" is automatically called at closing. This makes
portupgrade a tad slower but greatly reduces the "pkgdb -F"
annoyance.
- Fix a race where it rarely failed in updating the pkgdb after
installation and the user had to run "pkgdb -fu".
- Do not redirect stderr to /dev/null when calling portsclean -L. Now
the pkgdb updater's indicator is displayed properly.
- Synchronize the build failure checker with the latest version of
ports/Tools/portbuild/scripts/processlogs.
- Do not bother with +REQUIRED_BY files when they are mechanically
generated from @pkgdep information by pkgdb(1).

- Respect PKG_SUFX, which could be defined in /etc/make.conf or as an

- Drop the pkg_tarup(1) dependency in favor of pkg_create(1) -b, and
mark IGNORE for systems which pkg_create(1) does not support -b.
On those systems such as 4.4-STABLE and prior, users can either
a) update pkg_* tools or b) stick with portupgrade-20020920 +
pkg_tarup-1.2_3.
- Remove the workaround against somewhat old 5-CURRENT's buggy
bsd.*.mk.

lang/ruby_static as well as lang/ruby_static-devel again.

pkgdb(1), portupgrade(1):
- Add a BUGS entry to each of the two man pages to note that a user
must run pkgdb -fu to rebuild a corrupt pkgdb.
pkgdb(3):
- Add a silly workaround against a possible bug of the dbm module to
keep a pkgdb from getting insane and rebuilt.
- [exp.] Add a knob environment variable PKG_DBDRIVER to specify an
alternative binary database format for pkgdb. The available options
are:
"bdb_btree":
DB 3.x/4.x B+tree; requires databases/ruby-bdb.
"bdb_hash" or just "bdb":
DB 3.x/4.x hash; requires databases/ruby-bdb.
"bdb1_btree" or just "btree":
DB 1.85 B+tree; requires databases/ruby-bdb1.
"bdb1_hash", or just "bdb1" or "hash":
DB 1.85 hash; requires databases/ruby-bdb1. This should be
equivalent to the default except some tuning parameters, but
it is quite possible that ruby-bdb1 is stabler than the
standard dbm module included in ruby.
default:
DB 1.85 hash; uses ruby's standard dbm module.
In principle, a B+tree database is faster to store data, a little
bit slower to extract data, and takes more space than a hash
database.
This is still an experimental/undocumented feature only for those
interested, although I don't believe it brings any unstability.
Note that you can always run pkgdb -fu to rebuild a database.
