Use these versions as well in Makefile and PLIST.
It's unclear whether buildlink3.mk might include Makefile.version, this
is the reason to duplicate this information.
There are other packages that might be versioned similarily:
- sqlite3,
- thread.
No user-visible change in the main package.
The find-prefix infrastructure was required in a pkgviews world where
packages installed from pkgsrc could have different installation
prefixes, and this was a way for a dependency prefix to be determined.
Now that pkgviews has been removed there is no longer any need for the
overhead of this infrastructure. Instead we use BUILDLINK_PREFIX.pkg
for dependencies pulled in via buildlink, or LOCALBASE/PREFIX where the
dependency is coming from pkgsrc.
Provides a reasonable performance win due to the reduction of `pkg_info
-qp` calls, some of which were redundant anyway as they were duplicating
the same information provided by BUILDLINK_PREFIX.pkg.
Highlights of Tcl 8.5
* Features: 8.5 has over 90 TIPs included to provide a wide variety of
new features.
* Bignums: Tcl now supports arbitrary-precision integers, which improves
math operations on large integers.
* Safer interps: Tcl's powerful safe interpreter mechanism now has
improved control of time and command limits in slave interpreters.
* clock command: More robust implementation of command for specifying
time, with significant l10n and i18n improvements.
* dict command: New data structure that allows access to data by value
rather than a variable name, which is substantially faster.
* Additional improvements: Faster list search, new and improved
mathematics procedures, anonymous procedures, new ways to package Tcl
extensions, Tcl-level custom channel types, file and line location
information for each command, and more.
There is of course much, much more.
See [8.5 Changes](http://wiki.tcl.tk/10630) on the wiki for a complete
list of new features.
This changes the buildlink3.mk files to use an include guard for the
recursive include. The use of BUILDLINK_DEPTH, BUILDLINK_DEPENDS,
BUILDLINK_PACKAGES and BUILDLINK_ORDER is handled by a single new
variable BUILDLINK_TREE. Each buildlink3.mk file adds a pair of
enter/exit marker, which can be used to reconstruct the tree and
to determine first level includes. Avoiding := for large variables
(BUILDLINK_ORDER) speeds up parse time as += has linear complexity.
The include guard reduces system time by avoiding reading files over and
over again. For complex packages this reduces both %user and %sys time to
half of the former time.
and add a new helper target and script, "show-buildlink3", that outputs
a listing of the buildlink3.mk files included as well as the depth at
which they are included.
For example, "make show-buildlink3" in fonts/Xft2 displays:
zlib
fontconfig
iconv
zlib
freetype2
expat
freetype2
Xrender
renderproto
* Win NT/XP: unicode console support taken back out.
* ${prefix}/share addition to ::tcl_pkgPath undone.
* Warning message for packages with incorrect index scripts silenced.
* Correct syntax error in configure script (bash 3.1 exposes it).
* Tk incompatibilities with SCIM resolved.
* Improved [file writable] support of Windows conventions.
* Tcl_GetIndexFromObj() support for exact matching of empty key.
* Tk Portuguese localization support (pt.msg).
* Tk more robust when X server does not recognize color name "Black".
* Tk_PhotoPutBlock() performance improvement.
* [lsearch -start $pastEnd] no longer finds match at end of list.
* Correct [expr abs($LONG_MIN)] result.
* Correct [string range] failures on some strings containing \x00.
* TCL_EVAL_GLOBAL and [uplevel 0] agreement when traces or [unknown] active.
* Corrections to context of auto-loading the target of an interp alias.
* Corrected some interference between enter and enterstep traces.
* Correct [$img configure -data] failure to change X display.
* Tk_GetBitmapFromData() thread safety.
* Crashes in [grid] for some invalid index arguments.
* Crash when all content of a [text] is elided.
* Crash in [$text edit undo/redo].
* Crash in animated GIF display with variable frame size.
* Crash related to pipe usage in thread-enabled Tcl on Windows.
* Crash when [$text dump -command] changes contents while dumping.
* Crash reading utf-8 when multibyte char spans multiple buffers at EOF.
* Several finalization crashes corrected.
RECOMMENDED is removed. It becomes ABI_DEPENDS.
BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED.foo becomes BUILDLINK_ABI_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS.foo becomes BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS does not change.
IGNORE_RECOMMENDED (which defaulted to "no") becomes USE_ABI_DEPENDS
which defaults to "yes".
Added to obsolete.mk checking for IGNORE_RECOMMENDED.
I did not manually go through and fix any aesthetic tab/spacing issues.
I have tested the above patch on DragonFly building and packaging
subversion and pkglint and their many dependencies.
I have also tested USE_ABI_DEPENDS=no on my NetBSD workstation (where I
have used IGNORE_RECOMMENDED for a long time). I have been an active user
of IGNORE_RECOMMENDED since it was available.
As suggested, I removed the documentation sentences suggesting bumping for
"security" issues.
As discussed on tech-pkg.
I will commit to revbump, pkglint, pkg_install, createbuildlink separately.
Note that if you use wip, it will fail! I will commit to pkgsrc-wip
later (within day).
in the process. (More information on tech-pkg.)
Bump PKGREVISION and BUILDLINK_DEPENDS of all packages using libtool and
installing .la files.
Bump PKGREVISION (only) of all packages depending directly on the above
via a buildlink3 include.
through, unacceptably breaks threaded apps, and was made without consulting
the package's maintainer.
To quote my mail to packages@:
I am reversing this change.
With this change, tcl is _not_ usable in threaded apps, while without
this change, tcl is perfectly usable in non-threaded apps.
The fix for a package which is incorrectly written is not to break the
package it depends on, but do your job correctly when writing the
package.
With buildlink3, this is mind-numbingly easy to do.
That you neither contacted the maintainer of this package, nor did the
buildlink and dependent package changes which your change requires shows
that you have not really thought this through.
So, as I said, I am reversing this change. Fix your own package, don't
break others.
libtcl.so/libtk.so (whether linking it in or dlopen() it) must be linked
against libpthread. This is something we can't guarantee.
Fixes bulk build error in py-imagingtk and numerous runtime problems.
the normal case when BUILDLINK_DEPENDS.<pkg> isn't specified, it receives
a value only once due to the multiple inclusion protection in the
bulldlink3.mk files. In the case where a package includes several
buildlink3.mk files that each want a slightly different version of another
dependency, having BUILDLINK_DEPENDS.<pkg> be a list allows for the
strictest <pkg> dependency to be matched.
