in the directory box. This is inconsistent with the command line handling
and can turn into a security problem. This change fixed PR pkg/17751
by Christian Biere. Bump package revision to reflect this change.
all dependencies on packages depending on "png" which contain shared
libraries, all for the (imminent) update to the "png" package.

pkgsrc. Instead, a new variable PKGREVISION is invented that can get
bumped independent of DISTNAME and PKGNAME.
Example #1:
DISTNAME= foo-X.Y
PKGREVISION= Z
=> PKGNAME= foo-X.YnbZ
Example #2:
DISTNAME= barthing-X.Y
PKGNAME= bar-X.Y
PKGREVISION= Z
=> PKGNAME= bar=X.YnbZ (!)
On subsequent changes, only PKGREVISION needs to be bumped, no more risk
of getting DISTNAME changed accidentally.
foo-* to foo-[0-9]*. This is to cause the dependencies to match only the
packages whose base package name is "foo", and not those named "foo-bar".
A concrete example is p5-Net-* matching p5-Net-DNS as well as p5-Net. Also
change dependency examples in Packages.txt to reflect this.
using the newest PNG library won't work on system with an older one. To
prevent such problems with precompiled binary packages require at least
"png-1.0.9nb1" in all dependences.
DEPENDS+= ghostscript-[6-9]*:../../print/ghostscript
and packages needing just any ghostscript binary use
DEPENDS+= ghostscript{,-nox11}-[6-9]*:../../print/ghostscript
build a binary package with this definition would fail as the PLIST is
not correct.
If a package's documentation is overwhelming, it should arguably be handled
in a separate pre-requisite documentation package.
- New, optional Makefile variable HOMEPAGE, specifies a URL for
the home page of the software if it has one.
- The value of HOMEPAGE is used to add a link from the
README.html files.
- pkglint updated to know about it. The "correct" location for
HOMEPAGE in the Makefile is after MAINTAINER, in that same
section.
