This file documents some of the problems you may encounter when
|
|
upgrading your ports. We try our best to minimize these disruptions,
|
|
but sometimes they are unavoidable.
|
|
|
|
You should get into the habit of checking this file for changes each
|
|
time you update your ports collection, before attempting any port
|
|
upgrades.

AUTHOR: x11@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
Xterm no longer installs with '-static' prefix. Users should upgrade
|
|
XFree86-clients to 4.5.0_1 or xorg-clients to 6.8.2_1 or newer before
|
|
attempting upgrade of xterm to 206_1 or newer. Previous versions remove
|
|
xterm on deinstall so CONFLICTS have been set accordingly.

|
|
The Trac database schema was changed between versions 0.8 and 0.9. This
|
|
port also started to use PySQLite 2 (SQLite 3). Existing environments
|
|
must be upgraded before they can be used with Trac 0.9.
|
|
|
|
The canonical update procedure for existing trac environments is:
|
|
|
|
$ export TRAC_ENV=/path/to/trac/env
|
|
$ # backup existing trac environment
|
|
$ cp -Rp $TRAC_ENV $TRAC_ENV.backup # backup existing trac env
|
|
$ # convert database from sqlite 2 to sqlite 3 format
|
|
$ mv $TRAC_ENV/db/trac.db $TRAC_ENV/db/trac2.db
|
|
$ sqlite $TRAC_ENV/db/trac2.db .dump | sqlite3 $TRAC_ENV/db/trac.db
|
|
$ # upgrade trac environment
|
|
$ /usr/local/bin/trac-admin $TRAC_ENV upgrade
|
|
$ /usr/local/bin/trac-admin $TRAC_ENV resync

|
|
Version 2.x marks a new generation for qmrtg and is no longer compatible
|
|
with configuration files from old releases.
|
|

|
|
AFFECTS: users of devel/apache-ant
|
|
AUTHOR: hq@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
The Ant launcher script now uses javavmwrapper to pick a suitable JDK. Hence
|
|
it is no longer needed to define JAVA_HOME for Ant to run. You may rather use
|
|
and combination of JAVA_VERSION, JAVA_OS and JAVA_VENDOR. See javavm(1) for
|
|
further information. However, you may still override this behavior using
|
|
JAVACMD.
|
|
|
|
The ANT_INCLUDE_SHARED_JARS variable used to be effective only when set to
|
|
"YES" (case sensitive). It is now a defined/undefined switch and thus will be
|
|
effective if defined, regardless of its value.

The port installs a new RCng startup script which no longer uses tomcat55ctl to

|
AUTHOR: kde@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
One data file has been moved from kdeadmin to kdelibs between
|
|
KDE 3.4.1 and KDE 3.4.2. This means that
|
|
|
|
*********if you currently have the kdeadmin port installed*********
|
|
|
|
you will have to take some precautions to update your KDE
|
|
installation.
|
|
|
|
We recommend sticking to the following procedure. This procedure requires you
|
|
to have sysutils/portupgrade installed and to be the superuser (or using sudo).
|
|
|
|
1.) Delete installed packages which conflict with the updated KDE
|
|
ports.
|
|
|
|
pkg_deinstall -f kdeadmin-\[0-9\]\*
|
|
|
|
2.) Now update the remaining KDE ports.
|
|
|
|
portupgrade -O arts\* kde\* \*kde-i18n\*
|
|
|
|
or, if you want to update KDE along with other updated ports:
|
|
|
|
portupgrade -a
|
|
|
|
3.) Reinstall the KDE ports you deleted in step 1.
|
|
|
|
portinstall -O kdeadmin
|
|
|
|

AFFECTS: users of sysutils/sge and sysutils/sgeee
|
|
AUTHOR: brooks@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
A port of SGE 6 has been installed in sysutils/sge. SGE 6 is
|
|
significantly different from SGE 5 and an upgrade is only possible
|
|
by removing the SGE 5 install and replacing it. The SGE vs SGEEE
|
|
distinction has been removed in SGE 6 so the sgeee port was removed.
|
|
The sge and sgeee ports were repo copied to sge53 and sgeee53
|
|
respectively and existing installations may continue to use them.
|
|
|

AFFECTS: users of databases/firebird-server
|
|
AUTHOR: skv@FreeBSD.org

|
|
* common utilities have been moved to /usr/local/bin
|
|
* suid-ed binaries have been moved to /usr/local/sbin

Update inetd.conf/xinetd.conf to reflect new location of "fb_inet_server".

20050722:
|
|
AFFECTS: All RELENG_6 and HEAD users of ports/packages, maintainers
|
|
of ports that interact with the compat libraries.
|
|
AUTHOR: kensmith@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
The shared library version number of all shared libraries built as
|
|
part of the baseline system has been incremented in both RELENG_6
|
|
and HEAD. The overall goal is to make handling of the compat library
|
|
infrastructure easier. Each new release branch will have different
|
|
version numbers for all of the shared libraries and the compat ports
|
|
can simply include all of the shared libraries from the previous
|
|
release.
|
|
|
|
If you update your system using normal cvsup/rebuild/reinstall
|
|
mechanisms the old versions of the libraries will still be on your
|
|
system so your old ports executables will continue to work.
|
|
But you definitely should plan on recompiling and reinstalling all
|
|
of your installed ports so they get relinked against the new libraries.
|
|
If you don't take this step as time goes on "normal" updates and
|
|
installs run the risk of having executables relying on both the new
|
|
and old versions of the libraries which would cause big problems.
|
|
|
|
It will take some time for the pre-built packages available on the
|
|
FTP mirror sites to be rebuilt against the new libraries. If you
|
|
want to update your ports using the pre-built packages watch the
|
|
mailing lists for when the rebuilt packages become available.

AUTHOR: kde@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
If you have compiled qt33 with the KDE_OPTIONS option checked (if your
|
|
installed qt-package is called qt-copy-3.3.4 instead of qt-3.3.4, check
|
|
with pkg_info), you should cvsup and recompile qt33 and everything
|
|
depending on it:
|
|
|
|
portupgrade -rf qt\*
|
|
|
|
Previous versions of the qt33 port contained a patch that
|
|
introduces binary incompatibility between unpatched qt33 and software
|
|
compiled against a patched qt33.
|
|
|
|
Symptoms of the binary incompatibility: Unresolved symbol warnings from
|
|
various KDE/Qt applications (both during runtime or compiling/linking),
|
|
"Could not start kdeinit" dialogs during KDE startup, kicker crashes during
|
|
exiting KDE.

|
|
AUTHOR: danfe@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
Due to several complaints, new (unsupported) option had been added to port
|
|
Makefile: WITH_LEGACY_GPU_SUPPORT. Starting with version 7667, NVidia has
|
|
dropped support for numerous "legacy" GPUs, while this option allows to go
|
|
with previous version of driver (this does not apply to older versions of
|
|
FreeBSD, since you have to use version 6113 of driver (if you did not yet
|
|
upgraded to FreeBSD 5.3 or later) which has support for those GPUs).
|
|
|
|
If you must use WITH_LEGACY_GPU_SUPPORT option, be sure to ``hold'' the
|
|
package by making appropriate entry in your pkgtools.conf, otherwise
|
|
portupgrade(1) will upgrade your port to latest NVidia release on the
|
|
next run, which is probably not what you want.

Because of users need to keep their DB configuration but config.php

|
|
In KDE 3.4, a number of files were moved between ports, some ports
|
|
were added, one port has been removed and some applications formerly available
|
|
in their own ports were incorporated into KDE. This means that you will have
|
|
to take some precautions to update your KDE installation. A simple
|
|
portupgrade -a will not work.
|
|
|
|
Portupgrade -R kde can fail as well, depending on what parts of KDE you
|
|
have currently installed. We therefore recommend sticking to the following
|
|
procedure. The procedure requires you to have sysutils/portupgrade installed
|
|
and you to be the superuser (or using sudo). We recommend not being logged in
|
|
to a KDE session on the machine you're performing the upgrade on. If you
|
|
choose to perform the update while being logged in to KDE, expect erratic
|
|
behavior and crashes from applications launched until you log out and back
|
|
in.
|
|
|
|
1.) Delete installed packages which conflict with the updated KDE
|
|
ports.
|
|
|
|
pkg_deinstall -f kdeartwork-\[0-9\]\* kdebase-\[0-9\]\* \
|
|
kdebase-konqueror-nsplugins-\[0-9\]\* kdewebdev-\[0-9\]\* \
|
|
kde-\[0-9\]\* akregator\* phase\*
|
|
|
|
2.) Now update the remaining KDE ports.
|
|
|
|
portupgrade -O arts\* kde\* \*kde-i18n\*
|
|
|
|
or, if you want to update KDE along with other updated ports:
|
|
|
|
portupgrade -a
|
|
|
|
3.) Reinstall the KDE ports you deleted in step 1.
|
|
|
|
portinstall -O kdebase kdeartwork kdewebdev
|
|
|
|
Changes in detail:
|
|
|
|
- www/akregator is now included into deskutils/kdepim3.
|
|
- x11-themes/phase is now included in x11-themes/kdeartwork3.
|
|
- www/konqueror-nsplugins has been removed and is now integrated into
|
|
x11/kdebase3.
|
|
- Juk has been split out of multimedia/kdemultimedia3 and is now
|
|
available as audio/juk.
|
|
- Akode has been split out of multimedia/kdemultimedia3 and is now
|
|
available as audio/akode and audio/akode-plugins-*. Akode is also
|
|
a default dependency of multimedia/kdemultimedia3 now.
|
|
- audio/mpeglib_artsplug has been demoted to legacy status and is no
|
|
longer the default decoder backend for kdemultimedia3. It's also not
|
|
depended on by kdemultimedia3 by default anymore.
|
|
|
|
Known post-updating issues:
|
|
|
|
- If you're missing acoustic notifications (system sounds) after the update:
|
|
|
|
rm ~/.kde/share/config/knotifyrc
|
|
|
|
Then log out of KDE and back in again (also see
|
|
http://freebsd.kde.org/faq.php#q16).
|
|
|
|
- kdm users might get warnings from kdm about obsolete lines in kdmrc.
|
|
You can migrate your configuration while preserving your customizations
|
|
by running (as root or with sudo)
|
|
|
|
genkdmconf
|
|
|
|
Make sure to backup your old kdm configuration (usually found in
|
|
/usr/local/share/config/kdm) beforehand in case the merge produces an
|
|
invalid configuration. Especially note that kdm does not use the Xservers
|
|
file anymore. A genkdmconf run will merge its contents into kdmrc.

AFFECTS: users of print/teTeX-*
|
|
AUTHOR: hrs@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
print/teTeX-* are now based on teTeX 3.0. Although some
|
|
reliability fixes are also added, here are several common problems
|
|
which you might fall on.
|
|
|
|
1) $PREFIX/bin/pdftex is missing:
|
|
|
|
Probably your system has old files included teTeX 2.x which can
|
|
prevent the new version from working. Please remove the old
|
|
files first (see 20050206 in this file) and reinstall.
|
|
|
|
2) Some formats are still corrupted (for example, "Fatal format file error;
|
|
I'm stymied" is displayed) or not updated even after a clean install:
|
|
|
|
You might have old or corrupted *.fmt and/or *.map files
|
|
under /root/.texmf-* or $HOME/.texmf-* directories. Typically
|
|
these directories are generated when you invoke the updmap(1),
|
|
texconfig(1), or fmtutil(1) utility manually. However, for a period
|
|
after the first revision of the teTeX-base port erroneously used
|
|
fmtutil(1) to regenerate *.fmt files, you could have these directories
|
|
without your intent. In such a case, please remove these directories
|
|
and reinstall the ports (it is not needed to rebuild ports/packages).
|
|
Just for your information, $HOME/.texmf-config and $HOME/.texmf-var
|
|
can be used for your personal configuration.
|
|
|
|

AUTHOR: koma2@ms.u-tokyo.ac.jp
|
|
|
|
The dependency on x11-fonts/mkbold and x11-fonts/mkitalic has been
|
|
switched over to x11-fonts/mkbold-mkitalic, which is written in C
|
|
and has far better performance than the old ones. There is no
|
|
functional difference between the two, but they will conflict with
|
|
each other. Since other ports which depend on x11-fonts/mkbold or
|
|
x11-fonts/mkitalic will be updated to depend on x11-fonts/mkbold-mkitalic,
|
|
you might get an error during upgrading such ports. In such a case,
|
|
please pkg_delete the old ones first.

print/teTeX is now based on a teTeX 3.0 release candidate
|
|
(2.99.13.20050204) and the other related ports are also updated.
|
|
Since upgrading from previous versions should be done at a time,
|
|
you may want to use the portupgrade utility or reinstall
|
|
print/teTeX after deinstalling all of the related ports.
|
|
|
|
If your teTeX environment became broken during the upgrade,

please see the following URL which explains how to fix it.

|

AUTHOR: knu@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
The slippery pthread support for systems prior to 502102 has been
|
|
dropped and lang/ruby16_r and lang/ruby18_r ports have been removed,
|
|
since no one seems to appreciate the partially working solution.
|
|
|
|
Good news is that the pthread support of lang/ruby18 is now enabled
|
|
by default for newer systems, which means the ruby interpreter is
|
|
linked with libpthread. This will allow threaded extension
|
|
libraries to run and work properly on those systems.

AUTHOR: tobez@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
lang/perl5 has been updated to 5.6.2, and lang/perl5.8 has been
|
|
updated to 5.8.6. you should update everything depending on perl, that
|
|
is:
|
|
|
|
* first, upgrade your perl installation (use either lang/perl5 or
|
|
lang/perl5.8, the latter being recommended);
|
|
* for FreeBSD 4.X, run "use.perl port", so that the system knows you
|
|
have 5.8.6 or 5.6.2; this step is not needed on FreeBSD 5.X and
|
|
FreeBSD -CURRENT;
|
|
* run some magic incantations to upgrade all ports depending on perl,
|
|
that is run something like :
|
|
portupgrade -f `(pkg_info -R perl-5\* |tail +4; \
|
|
find /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.[68].[1245] -type f -print0 \
|
|
| xargs -0 pkg_which -fv | sed -e '/: ?/d' -e 's/.*: //')|sort -u`
|
|
This is likely to fail for a few ports, you'll have to upgrade them
|
|
afterwards by hand.

If you installed libgnomesu the day it was added to the ports tree,

you have a malformed PAM control file in /etc/pam.d/. All libgnomesu

|
|
|
|
4.x users: listen up! The presence of the /etc/pam.d/ directory (and
|
|
anything in that directory) presents a Very Bad Thing. Unless you've

iip has been updated to the new network servers. Therefore, both

old configuration files and node reference keys no longer apply.
|
|
|
|
Therefore, you need to update the configuration files for each
|
|
user running the iip isproxy daemon:
|
|
|
|
1) Backup configuration files
|
|
|
|
cp ~/.iip/isproxy.ini ~/.iip/isproxy.ini.backup
|
|
cp ~/.iip/node.ref ~/.iip/node.ref.backup
|

2) Remove configuration files
|
|
|
|
rm ~/.iip/isproxy.ini
|
|
rm ~/.iip/node.ref
|
|
|
|
3) Create new configuration. Fill information as requested. This
|
|
creates the updated isproxy.ini file
|
|
|
|
isproxy -C
|
|
|
|
4) Start iip isproxy. This will initialize your updated node.ref
|
|
file. This file will be automatically updated when you connect
|
|
to the iip network

Nautilus-cd-burner now requires cdrtools built with UTF-8 encoding
|
|
support. The default sysutils/cdrtools port does not support this
|
|
encoding, and that will cause nautilus-cd-burner to enter an infinite
|
|
loop when trying to create CD images. To workaround this, the cdrtools
|
|
dependency was changed in nautilus-cd-burner to point to the
|
|
sysutils/cdrtools-cjk port instead.
|
|
|
|
Since sysutils/cdrtools and sysutils/cdrtools-cjk conflict, you must

You may wish to deinstall courier-imap and/or sqwebmail before you

After upgrading of lang/python, you must rebuild all its consumer

ports to make them get ready to Python 2.4.
|
|
|
|
To do this, you will need to:
|

Rawdog 2.x changes the format of the state file used in 1.x. To

upgrade from 1.x to 2.x the rawdog author recommends the following:
|
|
|

rawdog -u
|

rawdog --upgrade ~/.rawdog-old ~/.rawdog

portsdb(1) is part of the portupgrade suite and is used to convert a ports
|
|
INDEX file to a binary INDEX.db database. By default, it uses the
|
|
libc-builtin berkeley db to do so, which has a buggy btree implementation.
|
|
|

If you see errors like "[BUG] Segmentation fault" while a portsdb update is
|
|
in progress, adjust the PORTS_DBDRIVER variable (in your environment or in
|
|
pkgtools.conf) to either bdb1_hash or dbm_hash.
|
|

This problem was fixed in 5.3-RELEASE, but users of 4.10-RELEASE and

5.2.1-RELEASE (and older releases) will find fixes by updating to the

latest (at least after Sep 20) of RELENG_4 or RELENG_5.

AFFECTS: users of sysutils/portupgrade
|
|
AUTHOR: lofi@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
Due to the recent removal of INDEX and INDEX-5 from FreeBSD's CVS,
|
|
portupgrade with default configuration will run 'make index' if started
|
|
after cvsup'ing the ports-collection. This may take an undesirably long
|
|
time.
|
|
|
|
There are several ways to work around this, for example:
|
|
|
|
- Run 'make fetchindex' after cvsup'ing ports.
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
- Adjust the PORTS_INDEX variable in your environment or in
|
|
pkgtools.conf (see portupgrade(1) or the default pkgtools.conf) to
|
|
a different value than the default.
|
|
|
|
Also remember that 'make index' is only supported on _complete_
|
|
ports-trees. If you are currently refusing whole categories by means
|
|
of a cvsup refuse file, use 'make fetchindex' instead (or consider
|
|
keeping an extra machine/jail with a complete ports-tree around to
|
|
do INDEX builds on).

AUTHOR: lioux@FreeBSD.org

|
|
mpeg4ip has been updated and broken down into 2 separate ports:
|
|
mpeg4ip and mpeg4ip-libmp4v2. Furthermore, mpeg4ip now depends
|
|
on faad. Moreover, faad now depends on mpeg4ip-libmp4v2 rather
|
|
than on mpeg4ip which avoids a cyclic dependency (mpeg4ip depends
|
|
on faad which depends on mpeg4ip).
|
|
|
|
If any of the old ports are installed, mpeg4ip will not compile.
|
|
Therefore,
|
|
|
|
1) Remove old faad and mpeg4ip ports which conflict with new
|
|
mpeg4ip
|
|
|
|
pkg_delete -f /var/db/pkg/mpeg4ip*
|
|
pkg_delete -f /var/db/pkg/faad*

order
|

cd /usr/ports/multimedia/mpeg4ip-libmp4v2 && make install clean

javavmwrapper has been rewritten. It now creates symbolic links for
|
|
all executables of the Java VMs that have been registered with it.
|
|
These symbolic links may impact which version of Java you are using,
|
|
depending on your PATH, which may need to be adjusted.
|
|
|
|
For example, if your path is:
|
|
|

${LOCALBASE}/bin:${LOCALBASE}/jdk1.4.2/bin
|
|

then previously "java" would resolve to ${LOCALBASE}/jdk1.4.2/bin/java.
|
|
With the new javavmwrapper it will resolve to ${LOCALBASE}/bin/java.
|
|
Depending upon the Java VMs that are registered and various environment
|
|
variables, it may or may not be ${LOCALBASE}/jdk1.4.2/bin/java that is
|
|
run by javavmwrapper via the symbolic link ${LOCALBASE}/bin/java.

This should have no effect unless you are using FreeBSD 5.3-BETA7 or
|
|
higher, or if you are a -current user who upgraded after this date.
|

Assuming you did a from-source upgrade new versions of these libraries

/lib/libm.so.2 will be the old one, /lib/libm.so.3 will be the new one).
|

Any ports or pre-built packages you have currently installed will
|
|
continue to use the old library, any ports you install after the upgrade
|
|
will begin to use the new library. You will need to have all your
|
|
ports recompiled before the old library goes away. To help with the

migration you could also use /etc/libmap.conf to map libm.so.2 to

AUTHOR: kde@freebsd.org
|
|
|
|
In KDE 3.3, a number of files were moved between ports and some ports
|
|
were removed. This means that you will have to take some precautions
|
|
to update your KDE installation. A simple portupgrade -a will not work.
|
|
portupgrade -R kde can fail as well, depending on what parts of KDE you
|
|
have currently installed. We therefore recommend sticking to the following
|
|
procedure. The procedure requires you to have sysutils/portupgrade installed
|
|
and you to be the superuser (or using sudo). We recommend not being logged in
|
|
to a KDE session on the machine you're performing the upgrade on. If you
|
|
choose to perform the update while being logged in to KDE, expect erratic
|
|
behavior and crashes from applications launched during the update.
|
|
|
|
1.) First, make sure your ports index is up to date.
|
|
|
|
cd /usr/ports && make index
|
|
|
|
or, if you're using the sysutils/portindex port
|
|
|
|
portindex
|
|
|
|
2.) Delete installed packages which conflict with the updated KDE
|
|
ports.
|
|
|
|
pkg_deinstall -f kdeaddons-kontact-plugins-\* \
|
|
kdeaddons-kaddressbook-plugins-\* kdepim-\* kdeutils-\* \
|
|
kdeaddons-\[0-9\]\* kde-\[0-9\]\*
|
|
|
|
kdegraphics now conflicts with the kolourpaint package and kdeedu now
|
|
conflicts with the kwordquiz package. If you have kwordquiz and/or
|
|
kolourpaint installed on your system and you want to use the kdegraphics/
|
|
kdeedu ports, you should first deinstall the conflicting packages:
|
|
|
|
pkg_deinstall -f kolourpaint\* kwordquiz\*
|
|
|
|
|
|
3.) Now update the remaining KDE ports.
|
|
|
|
portupgrade arts\* kde\* quanta\*
|
|
|
|
or, if you want to update KDE along with other updated ports:
|
|
|
|
portupgrade -a
|
|
|
|
Note that the quanta port has been renamed to kdewebdev. The commands
|
|
above will automatically replace quanta with kdewebdev, if you have
|
|
quanta installed.
|
|
|
|
4.) Reinstall any KDE ports you deleted in step 2. Note that the kdeaddons-
|
|
kontact-plugins (net/kontact-plugins), kdepim-kpilot (palm/kpilot) and
|
|
quanta (www/quanta) ports/packages do not exist anymore and cannot be
|

reinstalled.
|
|
|
|
Known post-updating issues:
|
|
|
|
- If you're missing acoustic notifications (system sounds) after the update:
|
|
|
|
rm ~/.kde/share/config/knotifyrc
|
|
|
|
Then log out of KDE and back in again.
|
|
|
|
- KMail has been heavily modified since KDE 3.2.x. Testing shows that KMail
|
|
can display erratic behavior and crashes after the update. If you see any
|
|
such behavior, it is recommended to simply close KMail and start it again
|
|
until it resumes normal operation.
|
|
|
|
The integration of GnuPG and KMail for signing, encrypting and verifying
|
|
PGP/MIME mail has also changed. A quick howto is available at
|
|
http://freebsd.kde.org/howtos/gnupg-kmail.php.

You can migrate your configuration while preserving your customizations
|

by running
|
|
|
|
genkdmconf

AUTHOR: udo.schweigert@siemens.com
|
|
|
|
The defaults of the port have been changed from WITH_MUTT_NCURSES to
|
|
WITH_MUTT_SLANG to be in sync with the mail/mutt port. If you really have
|
|
problems with slang (which should be a very rare case) be sure to have set
|
|
COLORTERM=yes and COLORFGBG="color1;color2" in your environment, or recompile
|
|
the port with the WITH_MUTT_NCURSES knob set (e.g. by adding
|
|
WITH_MUTT_NCURSES=yes to your /etc/make.conf).

|
|
AUTHOR: hrs@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
japanese/ptex-tetex, japanese/xdvik, and japanese/dvipsk now
|
|
look for the texmf.cnf file in $TEXMF/web2c-ptex/texmf.cnf first,
|
|
while some utilities included in the original teTeX distribution
|
|
such as kpsepath(1) look for the file in $TEXMF/web2c/texmf.cnf
|
|
first. This is for separating the pTeX's texmf.cnf and
|
|
the original TeX's texmf.cnf, and you do not have to copy or
|
|
link the file $TEXMF/web2c-ptex/texmf.cnf to $TEXMF/web2c/.
|
|
To lookup pTeX path by using kpsepath(1) and so on, please
|
|
set TEXMFCNF environment variable as described in
|
|
$TEXMF/web2c-ptex/texmf.cnf. For more detail, see
|
|
$TEXMF/web2c-ptex/texmf.cnf and $TEXMF/web2c/texmf.cnf.

AFFECTS: users of japanese/platex209-*
|
|
AUTHOR: hrs@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
japanese/platex209-* are renamed to japanese/platex209 and
|
|
now depend on japanese/ptex-tetex. While EUC-JP and JIS
|
|
encoding can be used by default, but Shift JIS is no longer
|
|
supported because it makes very difficult to maintain other
|
|
pTeX related ports. However, "ptex --kanji=sjis" still works,
|
|
so it can be used if all of macro files under share/texmf are
|
|
converted to Shift JIS encoding manually.

AUTHOR: hrs@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
japanese/dvipsk-vflib has been removed because it is not maintained
|
|
for a long time. While japanese/dvipsk itself has no support to
|
|
rendering vector fonts, this and Ghostscript give almost the same
|
|
functionality.

20040820:
|
|
AFFECTS: users of japanese/xdvik-vflib
|
|
AUTHOR: hrs@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
japanese/xdvik-vflib has been renamed to japanese/xdvik because
|
|
it has nothing to do with VFLib now. It depends on and uses
|
|
FreeType2 to render vector fonts.

AFFECTS: users of lang/perl5.8
|
|
AUTHOR: tobez@FreeBSD.org, mat@FreeBSD.org, marcus@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
lang/perl5.8 has been updated to 5.8.5. you should update everything
|
|
depending on perl, that is:
|
|
* first, upgrade your perl5.8 installation.
|
|
* run "use.perl port", so that the system knows you have 5.8.5.
|
|
* now, run some magic incantations to upgrade all ports depending on perl,
|
|
that is run something like :
|
|
portupgrade -f `(pkg_info -R perl-5.8.5 |tail +4; \
|
|
find /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.[124] -type f -print0 \
|
|
| xargs -0 pkg_which -fv | sed -e '/: ?/d' -e 's/.*: //')|sort -u`
|
|
This is likely to fail for a few ports, you'll have to upgrade them
|
|
afterwards.
|
|
Please note, that this last step is, strictly speaking, not necessary,
|
|
if you are upgrading from 5.8.4. But it is cleaner to do so anyway.

AUTHOR: glewis@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
The update to Ant 1.6.2 introduces the following changes which may break
|
|
older environments, according to the 1.6.2 release notes:
|
|
|
|
. The import task used the canonical version of a file path. This
|
|
has been changed to use the absolute path. Bugzilla 28505.
|
|
. ant-xalan2.jar has been removed since the only class contained
|
|
in it didn't depend on Xalan-J 2 at all. Its sole dependency has
|
|
always been TraX and so it has been merged into ant-trax.jar.
|
|
. All exceptions thrown by tasks are now wrapped in a buildexception
|
|
giving the location in the buildfile of the task.
|
|
. Nested elements for namespaced tasks and types may belong to
|
|
the Ant default namespace as well as the task's or type's namespace.
|
|
. <junitreport> will very likely no longer work with Xalan-J 1.

AFFECTS: users for xorg and GNOME
|
|
AUTHOR: gnome@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
After migrating from XFree86 to X.Org, you must rebuild
|
|
x11-toolkits/libwnck and x11/libxklavier for full GNOME functionality
|
|
to be restored.
|
|
|
|
If you receive an XKB initialization error when starting GNOME, edit
|
|
your XF86Config or xorg.conf, and remove the line:
|
|
|
|
Option "XkbRules" "xfree86"

|
AFFECTS: users of FreeBSD-current, users of X.Org
|
|
AUTHOR: anholt@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
The XFREE86_VERSION variable is deprecated and has been replaced by the
|
|
X_WINDOW_SYSTEM variable. X_WINDOW_SYSTEM may be set to xorg, xfree86-4, or
|
|
xfree86-3. X_WINDOW_SYSTEM defaults to xorg on FreeBSD-current. If you are
|
|
switching to xorg, you should follow this set of commands to cleanly upgrade:
|
|
|
|
pkg_delete -f /var/db/pkg/imake-4* /var/db/pkg/XFree86-*
|
|
cd /usr/ports/x11/xorg && make install
|
|
pkgdb -F
|
|
|
|
Users of -stable or older -current can switch to X.Org by setting
|
|
X_WINDOW_SYSTEM=xorg in make.conf and following the same process.
|
|
|
|
Alternately, FreeBSD 5.x and later users can use portupgrade with packages:
|
|
cd /var/db/pkg
|
|
portupgrade -o devel/imake-6 imake-4*
|
|
portupgrade -o x11/xorg-libraries XFree86-libraries
|
|
portupgrade -o x11/xorg-clients XFree86-clients

portupgrade -o x11/xorg-documents XFree86-documents
|
|
portupgrade -o x11-fonts/xorg-fonts-truetype XFree86-fontScalable
|
|
portupgrade -o x11-fonts/xorg-fonts-100dpi XFree86-font100dpi
|
|
portupgrade -o x11-fonts/xorg-fonts-75dpi XFree86-font75dpi
|
|
portupgrade -o x11-fonts/xorg-fonts-type1 XFree86-fontDefaultBitmaps

AFFECTS: users of PHP
|
|
AUTHOR: ale@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
The old lang/php4 and lang/php5 ports have been split into 'base' PHP,
|
|
PEAR, and shared extensions to allow more flexibility and add new features.
|
|
Upgrading your current PHP installation will result in a 'base' PHP
|
|
installation (no PEAR and no extensions).
|
|
PEAR can be found in the new devel/php4-pear and devel/php5-pear ports, while
|
|
the set of PHP extensions to install can be chosen via the meta-ports
|
|
lang/php4-extensions and lang/php5-extensions, or installing singular
|
|
extensions individually.
|
|
If you have a previous php.ini configuration file, be sure to comment out
|
|
the extension_dir parameter, since the correct path is statically compiled
|
|
into the PHP binary.
|
|
For an overview of the modules used with the old PHP binary, use
|
|
the command "php -m".

AFFECTS: users of net/openldap21{,-sasl}-client
|
|
AUTHOR: eik@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
OpenLDAP version 2.2 is now the default. To upgrade all ports do
|
|
portupgrade -rfo net/openldap22-client openldap-client
|
|
(or a similar command for the SASL variant). If you do not want to
|
|
upgrade, add the line `WANT_OPENLDAP_VER?=21' to /etc/make.conf
|
|
|
|
Note that when you want to upgrade openldap21{,sasl}-server, you have
|
|
to use slapcat/slapadd to migrate the database, since the internal
|
|
format is not binary compatible. Simply upgrading the server without
|
|
doing a slapcat first can corrupt your database.

AFFECTS: users of mail/exim on FreeBSD 5.x
|
|
AUTHOR: eik@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
The default location of the startup script has been changed to
|
|
${PREFIX}/etc/rc.d. When you depend on the previous behavior,
|
|
build the port with WITH_RCORDER=yes.
|
|
|
|
Setting WITH_OPENLDAP_VER and WITH_MYSQL_VER do not automatically
|
|
imply the corresponding WITH_ variable. The use of these options
|
|
is discouraged, use the global settings (WANT_OPENLDAP_VER and
|
|
DEFAULT_MYSQL_VER) to set system wide defaults.

|
versions will be overwritten on upgrade. Users who have a
|
|
customized search.ini file that they would like to keep, should

AUTHOR: hrs@FreeBSD.org

The print/teTeX has been split into print/teTeX-base and print/teTeX-texmf,
|
|
and print/teTeX is now a meta-port for the two and print/dvipsk-tetex and
|
|
print/xdvik. print/teTeX installs dvips and xdvi by default again (via
|
|
print/dvipsk-tetex and print/xdvik). For people who want to use teTeX,
|
|
simply install print/teTeX with options set by default.
|
|
|
|
print/teTeX-base has additional options for adding xdvi and dvips included
|
|
in the teTeX distribution itself, but use of them are not recommended if
|
|
you do not understand what you are trying to do. Especially, when the
|
|
options are set by yourself, do not install ports that match *xdvi* and
|
|
*dvips* because they break the installed print/teTeX-base's dviware
|
|
and such conflicts will not be detected. In most cases, a combination
|
|
of print/teTeX-base + print/dvipsk-tetex + print/xdvik (which are
|
|
installed by print/teTeX by default) will be sufficient.

To update them generate ("make index") or fetch ("make fetchindex") a
|
|
new INDEX/INDEX-5. Run "pkgdb -F" and unregister the mkisofs/-devel
|
|
port. Then forcefully update the cdrtools port and all of its
|
|
dependencies (e.g. "portupgrade -rf cdrtools"). After the update
|
|
it may be necessary to rerun "pkgdb -F" and resolve a stale
|
|
dependency to cdrtools.

lang/perl5.8 has been updated to 5.8.4. you should update everything
|
|
depending on perl, that is :
|
|
* first, upgrade your perl5.8 installation.
|
|
* run "use.perl port", so that the system knows you have 5.8.4.
|
|
* now, run some magic incantations to upgrade all ports depending on perl,
|
|
that is run something like :
|
|
portupgrade -f `(pkg_info -R perl-5.8.4 |tail +4; \
|
|
find /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.2 -type f -print0 \
|
|
| xargs -0 pkg_which -fv | sed -e '/: ?/d' -e 's/.*: //')|sort -u`
|
|
This is likely to fail for a few ports, you'll have to upgrade them
|
|
afterward.

GNOME has been updated to 2.6. Simply portupgrading will cause serious
|
|
problems if you are using the desktop itself. If you are a GNOME desktop
|
|
user, you should carefully read the instructions at:
|
|
|
|
http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/docs/faq26.html
|
|
|
|
And use the gnome_upgrade.sh script to properly upgrade to GNOME 2.6. If
|
|
you are just a casual user of some of the GNOME libraries, portupgrade
|
|
should be sufficient to update your ports.

If you update kdelibs from version 3.2.0 to version 3.2.1 while running
|
|
a KDE 3.2.0 session, newly opened instances of Konqueror will silently
|
|
crash as soon as the new version of kdelibs has been installed, due to
|
|
mismatching linker symbols.
|
|
|
|
It is recommended you quit your KDE session at that point and update
|
|
kdebase to version 3.2.1, then restart KDE.

The arts port, PORTVERSION 1.2.1 does not include artswrapper anymore.

Instead, artswrapper is now installed by a new port audio/artswrapper.
|
|
|
|
Installation of artswrapper is optional, however:
|
|
|
|
If you presently run KDE and you have "Run with the highest possible
|
|
priority (realtime priority)" checked in Control Center/Sound & Multimedia/
|
|
Sound System and you choose to NOT install audio/artswrapper, you need to
|
|
|
|
- Uncheck "Run with the highest possible priority (realtime priority)"
|
|
in Control Center/Sound & Multimedia/Sound System BEFORE updating arts
|
|
|
|
OR
|
|
|
|
- AFTER updating arts and kdebase, go to Control Center/Sound & Multimedia/
|
|
Sound System, click on the unchecked "Run with the highest possible priority
|
|
(realtime priority)", dismiss the message telling you that realtime is un-
|
|
available or artswrapper is missing and then click Apply.

AUTHOR: netchild@FreeBSD.org

When updating from a previous version of security/antivir-milter you
|
|
have to do the following after deinstalling the old port:
|
|
rm <PREFIX>/AntiVir/antivir
|
|
rm <PREFIX>/AntiVir/antivir.vdf
|
|
chown root:wheel <PREFIX>/AntiVir
|
|
chown root:smmsp <PREFIX>/AntiVir/hbedv.key
|
|
In your SENDMAIL_MC change
|
|
`S=unix:<PREFIX>/AntiVir/avmilter.sock, F=T, T=S:10m;R:10m;E:5m'
|
|
to:
|
|
`S=unix:/var/spool/avmilter/avmilter.sock, F=T, T=S:10m;R:10m;E:10m'
|
|
and rebuild sendmail.cf.
|
|
If /var/spool/avmilter exist you have to:
|
|
chown -R smmsp:smmsp /var/spool/avmilter
|
|
If you are using a customized <PREFIX>/etc/avmilter.conf the port
|
|
won't remove it on deinstall and you have to manually change User
|
|
and Group to smmsp there.
|
|
Afterwards you can install the new version of this port. You then
|
|
should run antivirupdater to get a current VDF.

AFFECTS: i386 users of lang/ruby* and sysutils/portupgrade
|
|
AUTHOR: knu@FreeBSD.org
|
|
|
|
Change the default version of ruby to 1.8 for i386.
|
|
|
|
If you are a ruby developer and want to keep ruby 1.6 as default,
|
|
please add RUBY_DEFAULT_VER=1.6 to /etc/make.conf.
|
|
|
|
Otherwise, please run the following series of commands to migrate to
|
|
ruby 1.8:
|
|
|
|
1) Reinstall portupgrade manually (and as a result ruby 1.8 will be
|
|
installed):
|
|
pkg_delete portupgrade-\*
|
|
(cd /usr/ports/sysutils/portupgrade; make install clean)
|
|
|
|
2) Reinstall everything that depends on ruby 1.6 to use ruby 1.8
|
|
instead:
|
|
portupgrade -fr lang/ruby16
|
|
|
|
3) Reinstall ruby 1.8 (because the previous step kills symlinks):
|
|
portupgrade -f lang/ruby18
|
|
|
|
4) Deinstall ruby 1.6 stuff (if you are paranoia):
|
|
pkg_deinstall -ri lang/ruby16
|
|
|
|
5) If the above commands do now work somehow and portupgrade starts
|
|
causing LoadError, please reinstall portupgrade manually again.
|
|
Whenever you get confused, you can always deinstall portupgrade
|
|
and all the ruby stuff (run "pkg_delete -r ruby-\*") and
|
|
reinstall portupgrade as a last resort.
