little bit and allows to proceed to a more recent linux_base from
a stable (read as: the major bugs should be ironed out or identified
and most linux ports build just fine) source.
It also allows to ship 4.11 with a working linuxolator (the EOLed
linux_base is marked forbidden because of a security hole).
This is a major update, please read UPDATING (and CHANGES if you
develop linux ports).
Changes:
- change the default linux_base from v7 to v8
- add a newer freetype to linux_base-8 for nicer fonts display [1]
- don't let cpio use hardlinks in the linux_base-8 port to quiet some
warnings in some cases [2]
- fix a cut&past error in the linux_base-8 pkg-install script [3]
- convert the binary knob "USE_LINUX" to a version specifier, e.g.
USE_LINUX=<value> specifies a dependency upon
emulators/linux_base-<value>, exceptions are a value of "7" (which
does what you want and adds a dependency to linux_base) and any
value without a corresponding port in
PORTSDIR/emulators/linux_base-<value> (which adds a dependency to
the default linux_base)
- don't implicitly add USE_LINUX with the USE_LINUX_PREFIX knob,
this allows us to use the USE_LINUX_PREFIX knob for linux_base and
paves the way for splitting up future linux base ports into
individual pieces
- remove RESTRICTED from some GPL licensed ports, even when we only
distribute binaries, we get them from official linux sites, so
anyone can grab them there if he needs to
- add a dependency upon the linux X11 bits where necessary (based upon
guesswork)
- don't use USE_X_PREFIX in some linux ports since it adds a dependency
to the FreeBSD X11 libs, as a workaround use PREFIX?= (the clean
solution would be to remove the implicit USE_XLIB from USE_X_PREFIX)
- bump the portrevision of the linux ports ("better safe than sorry"
algorithm)
- pass maintainership of the important linux infrastructure to a
mailinglist, hijack freebsd-emulation@ for this purpose (if somebody
doesn't like this: tell us your bikeshed color at freebsd-emulation@,
my color would be "linuxolator@" in case someone cares...)
- add a pkg-install script for linux-fontconfig, but don't use it;
everything should work without it (the FreeBSD fc-cache program should
do all the work), but in case we need it we just need to decomment the
pkg-install part in the Makefile
- fix some dependencies
- fix some bugs
- add some static plists
- unbreak the ports with dependecies to more than one linux_base
This also fixes some ports which are marked BROKEN because of dependencies
to v7 and v8 of linux_base at the same time.
Known bugs:
- the linux-mesa and linux-devtools ports install libGL*.so symlinks
- some "minor" plist bugs (e.g. ld.so.{conf,cache} are modified by
the linux X11 port, so linx_Base-8 moans at deinstall time)
Future work (interested souls should coordinate with freebsd-emulation@):
- add some kind of USE_LINUX_X11 knob to streamline the X11 dependencies,
or modify the behavior of USE_XLIB in the USE_LINUX case
AFAIK trevor has some patches.
- make USE_XLIB and USE_X_PREFIX orthogonal to be able to get rid of
the PREFIX?= workaround in some linux ports
Should be discussed/coordinated on/with x11@.
- move the RPM bits from x11-toolkits/linux-gtk/Makefile to PORTSDIR/Mk/
- update to a more recent linux base

* Users may specify a nonstandard PREFIX to install somewhere. If they
are trying to use an USE_X_PREFIX=yes port, install with BSD.x11*.dist.
Otherwise, use BSD.local.dist. Ports that deliberately set a nonstandard
PREFIX must also set NO_MTREE to avoid spamming their hierarchy with an
inappropriate MTREE specfile.
Pointed out by: krion
with the reasonable use of that variable to hold date strings in the
environment [1]
* Overhaul the mtree spec file selection code: instead of deciding based
on the value of USE_X_PREFIX, compare PREFIX to X11BASE and LOCALBASE
directly. This fixes the MTREE_FILE for ports that set PREFIX=${X11BASE}
but don't set USE_X_PREFIX for some reason. If PREFIX is a
nonstandard value, set NO_MTREE=yes.

conflicts with the default values for JAVA_BUILD and JAVA_RUN. Those variables
are indeed set a default value when none of the them (together with
JAVA_EXTRACT) is defined. Having USE_ANT set a value for JAVA_BUILD will cause
JAVA_RUN not to be set its default value.
This has RUN_DEPENDS not correctly set (missing the JDK entry) on many ports
that use USE_ANT.
This patch addresses this issue by moving the statements dealing with default
values to have them executed before USE_ANT handling.

Java-based port with ant, using MAKE_ENV, MAKE_ARGS and ALL_TARGET but
using ant instead of make. When a port is built this way it also
causes ant to respect the JDK selected by bsd.java.mk rather than
using the JDK that ant was build with.
Most ports should just be able to do
USE_ANT= yes
You may also need to set ALL_TARGET if your port doesn't use the
default ant target.
See the comments on USE_ANT at the head of bsd.java.mk for more
information.

A number of ports don't create this directory automatically.
In normal uses, this doesn't cause a problem, but many of us
prefer to test out plists by installing into custom prefixes.
This prevents those custom prefix installation tests from
failing.
