Changes since 2.3:
- When more than one directory exists in WRKDIR after extracting the
distfile, a helpful comment is added to the generated Makefile.
Changes since 2.2:
- Detect more sourceforge download URLs.
- wrksrc_files and wrksrc_dirs are looked for in WRKSRC, not in WRKDIR.
- When the URL is being read in and an EOF occurs, the program exits.
Changes since 2.0:
- Made the dependency detection for Perl modules work again. The code
does not assume to be run in a special directory anymore.
- Perl modules that use the prompt() function to query the user
interactively can be handled. All questions are assumed to be answered
by just pressing <enter>.
- Made url2pkg more robust when interpreting the output of MakeMaker.pm.
Many Perl modules write additional things to stdout during the
generation of the Makefile.
- The language for the *.f files is "fortran", not "f".
- Fixed the regular expression for prdownloads.sourceforge.net links, so
that the distfile name is properly extracted.
Rewrote url2pkg in Perl, enhancing it in several ways:
- Packages for Perl modules using MakeMaker can be generated almost
completely. The only thing that usually needs to be filled out after
running url2pkg is the DESCR file.
- USE_LANGUAGES is filled automatically.
- After generating the initial Makefile, the editor is run to let the
user edit the Makefile. These changes are preserved as much as
possible. (This had not been the case before.)
- Extending url2pkg has been made much easier by splitting the tasks that
do the "magic" into small subroutines and by adding a detailed
description of what these routines are supposed to do.
Set the version number to 2.0.
Unbreak url2pkg on sourceforge hosted packages -- the MASTER_SITES
did not contain the trailing slash, thus breaking the download.
XXX: prdownloads.sf.net is not recognized as a sourceforge "mirror"
since the previous version of url2pkg.
Patch by pancake <pancake@phreaker.net> that permits url2pkg to scan
bsd.sites.mk and recreate the MASTER_SITE string. He has tested a bit
against GNU, GNOME, SOURCEFORGE master sites, and seems to do the things
fine.
- conversion of prdownloads.sourceforge.net URLs to
MASTER_SITE_SOURCEFORGE
- pre-fill CATEGORIES from the directory name
- educated guess about the HOMEPAGE
- now sets USE_PKGLOCALEDIR if .mo or .gmo files are found
- now recognizes GCONF schemas
- no PKGCONFIG_OVERRIDE statements for -uninstalled .pc.in files
- some minor code cleanup
COMMENTs are now a variable in the Makefile instead of a pkg/COMMENT
file. The COMMENT var should be in the maintainer block after the
homepage.
Modify bsd.pkg.mk, pkglint, url2pkg, and port2pkg (last one untested)
for the new behaviour. Document new state in Packages.txt.
This should save lots of inodes, and lots of time when untarring/updating.
Idea by Alistair Crooks.
For the time being, accept pkg/COMMENT instead of a COMMENT var to avoid
a flag day.
Patch submitted by Thomas Klausner in private mail.
* Mention that the user has to create pkg/COMMENT and pkg/DESCR manually
This file should probably be moved to pkgsrc...
* Properly recognize .tar.bz2 archives (Patch by Antti Kantee <pooka@iki.fi>)
* Some old configure scripts don't understand --version and may nuke
our just-generated Makefile. Prevent this by cd'ing into $WRKSRC.
- Bugfix from Matthias Drochner WRT handling of WRKSRC
- url2pkg is now under CVS maintainance (othersrc/usr.bin/url2pkg), but
since there's no gateway for that to ftp/http, esp. none without
versioning), the old distribution site is kept.
I still wanted to point this out. :-)
