I had hoped that 0.99_5 would be bug-free and the basis for the first
release (1.00), but couple were found. If use of 0.99_6 reveals no
further issues after a week or so, I'll re-release it as v1.00.
bugs fixed:
* if the origin started with a directory separator, an exception would
occur. Now it properly labels it as an invalid origin.
* The "extract" stage was labelled as "checksum". Internally everything
was fine, but on the display, the order was checksum, extract-depends,
checksum instead of checksum, extract-depends, extract.
* During one phase (build), the DEVELOPER flag was set unconditionally.
This was a regression as it wasn't always the case. This code was
tweaked several times since 0.99_5 and now the DEVELOPER setting has
been moved the builder's make.conf to ensure it's consistently
present or absent (as needed).
* It turns out that the ports tree scan is affected by the DEVELOPER
flag. It turns out the setting can affect the dependencies list so
it needs to be set (or absent) appropriately to match how it will be
on the builders. The make.conf solution above solves this too.
* There was "NO_BACKUP" set in the builders make.conf. This line is
for the DragonFly src builder and it's presence caused no harm, but
it's been removed now.
* Make ports makefile respect CFLAGS
new feature:
* Provide ability to break into a build at a specific point and
interact with it.
- Only available on "test" command
- Only active when one (1) port origin is given to "test" command
- Only active when ENTERAFTER is defined in environment as:
> extract
> patch
> configure
> build
> stage
> install
> deinstall
- All dependencies are built first with typical display and
DEVELOPER=1 set. Afterwards, Synth converts to text mode and
builds the specified port up to and including the phase specified
by ENTERAFTER. Then it launches a tcsh shell and gives control
to the user at the builder's root directory
- The user ends the interactive session with the shell cmd "exit"
- Synth will clean up and exit (it will not try to continue the
build due to possible corruption from the users)
* This is a port developers tool. The average user does not need it.
* The average user might use "test" command to generate a log to submit
as a FreeBSD Bugzilla PR attachment.
