libXext/buildlink3.mk, now that it is included there.
Leave the places where its API version is set or variables from it
are used directly (about 3 packages).
or USE_X11BASE set, but don't include mk/x11.buildlink3.mk directly or
via buildlink3.mks
- introduce BUILDLINK_PREFIX.libXpm as alias for BUILDLINK_PREFIX.xpm
in the !modular case
- fix some cases where the check for libX11 couldn't work at all by using
C++ for compilation without including the proper headers
Verified using a full X11_TYPE=xorg bulk build without additional
breakage. Discussed with salo@, wiz@ and send to packages@ for feedback.
developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.
it. The handling of va_arg stuff in broken in xview-lib. In particular
an interested programmer could start looking at:
the MAKE_AVLIST macro in:
xview3.2p1-X11R6//lib/libxview/misc/portable.h
and some illegal casts of va_list variables in
xview3.2p1-X11R6//lib/libxview/color/cms_pblc.c
probably more....
In the vast majority of cases, nothing has changed (i.e. .tgz, .tar.gz,
and .tar.bz2).
EXTRACT_USING_PAX can be set as before.
For custom extractions, instead of using EXTRACT_BEFORE_ARGS,
EXTRACT_AFTER_ARGS and EXTRACT_CMD, simply set EXTRACT_CMD to be the
command needed to decompress and extract the lements from the archive.
${DOWNLOADED_DISTFILE} can be used to reference the distfile(s).
e.g. for compressed shars, where previously there was:
EXTRACT_CMD= ${GZCAT}
EXTRACT_BEFORE_ARGS=
EXTRACT_AFTER_ARGS= |sh
now use:
EXTRACT_CMD= ${GZCAT} ${DOWNLOADED_DISTFILE} | ${SH}
