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.
around at either build-time or at run-time is:
USE_TOOLS+= perl # build-time
USE_TOOLS+= perl:run # run-time
Also remove some places where perl5/buildlink3.mk was being included
by a package Makefile, but all that the package wanted was the Perl
executable.
Several changes are involved since they are all interrelated. These
changes affect about 1000 files.
The first major change is rewriting bsd.builtin.mk as well as all of
the builtin.mk files to follow the new example in bsd.builtin.mk.
The loop to include all of the builtin.mk files needed by the package
is moved from bsd.builtin.mk and into bsd.buildlink3.mk. bsd.builtin.mk
is now included by each of the individual builtin.mk files and provides
some common logic for all of the builtin.mk files. Currently, this
includes the computation for whether the native or pkgsrc version of
the package is preferred. This causes USE_BUILTIN.* to be correctly
set when one builtin.mk file includes another.
The second major change is teach the builtin.mk files to consider
files under ${LOCALBASE} to be from pkgsrc-controlled packages. Most
of the builtin.mk files test for the presence of built-in software by
checking for the existence of certain files, e.g. <pthread.h>, and we
now assume that if that file is under ${LOCALBASE}, then it must be
from pkgsrc. This modification is a nod toward LOCALBASE=/usr. The
exceptions to this new check are the X11 distribution packages, which
are handled specially as noted below.
The third major change is providing builtin.mk and version.mk files
for each of the X11 distribution packages in pkgsrc. The builtin.mk
file can detect whether the native X11 distribution is the same as
the one provided by pkgsrc, and the version.mk file computes the
version of the X11 distribution package, whether it's built-in or not.
The fourth major change is that the buildlink3.mk files for X11 packages
that install parts which are part of X11 distribution packages, e.g.
Xpm, Xcursor, etc., now use imake to query the X11 distribution for
whether the software is already provided by the X11 distribution.
This is more accurate than grepping for a symbol name in the imake
config files. Using imake required sprinkling various builtin-imake.mk
helper files into pkgsrc directories. These files are used as input
to imake since imake can't use stdin for that purpose.
The fifth major change is in how packages note that they use X11.
Instead of setting USE_X11, package Makefiles should now include
x11.buildlink3.mk instead. This causes the X11 package buildlink3
and builtin logic to be executed at the correct place for buildlink3.mk
and builtin.mk files that previously set USE_X11, and fixes packages
that relied on buildlink3.mk files to implicitly note that X11 is
needed. Package buildlink3.mk should also include x11.buildlink3.mk
when linking against the package libraries requires also linking
against the X11 libraries. Where it was obvious, redundant inclusions
of x11.buildlink3.mk have been removed.
pkgsrc-wip, as the program has changed a lot. So:
AfterStep is a window manager for the Unix X Window System. Based on the
look and feel of the NeXTStep interface, it provides end users with a
consistent, clean, and elegant desktop.
Some of the distinguishing features of AfterStep compared to other window
managers are its low usage of resources, stability and configurability.
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.
All library names listed by *.la files no longer need to be listed
in the PLIST, e.g., instead of:
lib/libfoo.a
lib/libfoo.la
lib/libfoo.so
lib/libfoo.so.0
lib/libfoo.so.0.1
one simply needs:
lib/libfoo.la
and bsd.pkg.mk will automatically ensure that the additional library
names are listed in the installed package +CONTENTS file.
Also make LIBTOOLIZE_PLIST default to "yes".
for a possessive (like her, his, whose, their, and its).
Note that I didn't check for proper use of "its" (when it should
be "it is" or "it has" instead).
I also saw over 15 other grammar or punctuation problems, but not
fixed in this commit.
all dependencies on packages depending on "png" which contain shared
libraries, all for the (imminent) update to the "png" package.

Added DefaultGeometry option to database. That should allow to place
window with specifyed geometry when no USPosition was requested,
instead of dragging it around. Useful for things like Netscape.
Example:
Style "*escape*" DefaultGeometry 800x600+10-100
Afterstep-1.8.10 added "Xinerama" support (whatever that is) which we
have to disable in "configure" to build, and multi-head support -- which
is untested on NetBSD.
Follows is the complete ChangeLog since 1.8.9:
1.8.10 patch 1 (sasha+Geoff Burling+Jan Fedak)
o Numerous man page and usage fixes by Geoff Burling.
o Fixed bug in DefaultGeometry handling where check for USPosition/Size
should have been negated.
o Fixed compilation bug in lib/parse.c
o Fixed minor typho in afterstep man page.
o Debugged background setting on multihead config. It apperas that
asetroot cannot be run with -l if it is named other then asetroot.
Otherwise background selection from the menu does not work.
o Updated Clean to use ProcessModuleArgs. Added global var display_name
that is set to --display argument value or env var $DISPLAY 's value.
MOst modules must be updated to remove var with the same name from
main().
o Applied patch from Jan Fedak to add startup geometry to database
parameters.
o Applied patch from Jan Fedak to fix hotkeys in menus.
o Applied patch to get AfterStep to change Icon when Title is changing.
New feel option - FollowTitleChanges in feel has to be used to enable
this feature.
o Fixed Tile's -h handling.
o added support for maximization to not exceed screen size, while
working with xinerama.
o man pages fixes.
o Fixed socket/pipes reading loops to not cause 100% CPU utilization
under CYGWIN and in some cases even on Unix.
o Fixed Menus pointer location handling to use coordinates from events
and not abuse XQueryPointer. Otherwise menus were behaving strange
whenever events were late due to one reason or others.
1.8.9 patch 1 (sasha)
o Fix X libraries order, to have Xext preceed X11 - causes problems on
some Solaris systems.
o fixed two warnings related to time.h
o commented out dependency checking to avoid problems for users with old
compilers. It is not needed in stable series anyways.
o Added functionality to WindowsDesk function. If second argument is
10000 then first is relative desk number, instead of exact.
o Implemented Xinerama support. When window is initially placed - it
will be appropriately moved to not appear in between monitors, unless
user requested geometry explicetely.
o When Xinerama is active, and asetroot is requested to scale or pad
background image to the screen size it will use size of the first head
( the one with origin of 0,0 ).
o Implemented separate Feel, Look, Background and Init/Restart functions
for different screens in multihead config with no Xinerama.
o We now read $TMPDIR in order to locate /tmp directory, and falling back
to /tmp if envvar is not set.
o somewhat fixed Align and Pad fields in the Asetroot config parsing.
redefines about which buildlink.mk files would care is BUILDLINK_X11_DIR,
which points to the location of the X11R6 hierarchy used during building.
If x11.buildlink.mk isn't included, then BUILDLINK_X11_DIR defaults to
${X11BASE} (set in bsd.pkg.mk), so its value is always safe to use. Remove
the ifdefs surrounding the use of BUILDLINK_X11_DIR in tk/buildlink.mk and
revert changes to move x11.buildlink.mk before the other buildlink.mk files.
use X11_BUILDLINK_MK as a test value. Generally just reordering the
inclusions so that x11.buildlink.mk comes before the other buildlink.mk
files will make everthing work.
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.
to ${X11BASE} in the header and library search paths into references to
${LOCALBASE}/share/x11-links. These packages should now be strongly-
buildlinked regardless of whether xpkgwedge is installed.
Changes well-tested on NetBSD-1.5X/i386 with and without xpkgwedge and
lightly-tested on NetBSD-1.5.1/alpha without xpkgwedge.
Extract from ChangeLog:
o installastheme.pl now uses the first screen depth reported by xdpyinfo
instead of the last; this fixes problems with the look not updating on
XFree86 4.x (allanon)
o removed reference to xiterm from Wharf config file; wharf now tries to
load aterm, and then xterm if that fails (allanon)
o fix to mystyle drawing as applied to empty menu drawing
o removed config reading from the pipe - was causing some compile time
problems and really was never needed.
first component is now a package name+version/pattern, no more
executable/patchname/whatnot.
While there, introduce BUILD_USES_MSGFMT as shorthand to pull in
devel/gettext unless /usr/bin/msgfmt exists (i.e. on post-1.5 -current).
Patch by Alistair Crooks <agc@netbsd.org>
using the newest PNG library won't work on system with an older one. To
prevent such problems with precompiled binary packages require at least
"png-1.0.9nb1" in all dependences.
Convert most MESSAGE files to new syntax (${VARIABLE} gets replaced,
not @VARIABLE@, nor @@VARIABLE@@).
By default, substitutions are done for LOCALBASE, PKGNAME, PREFIX,
X11BASE, X11PREFIX; additional patterns can be added via MESSAGE_SUBST.
Clean up some packages while I'm there; add RCS tags to most MESSAGEs.
Remove some uninteresting MESSAGEs.
out of date - it was based on a.out OBJECT_FMT, and added entries in the
generated PLISTs to reflect the symlinks that ELF packages uses. It also
tried to be clever, and removed and recreated any symbolic links that were
created, which has resulted in some fun, especially with packages which
use dlopen(3) to load modules. Some recent changes to our ld.so to bring
it more into line with other Operating Systems also exposed some cracks.
+ Modify bsd.pkg.mk and its shared object handling, so that PLISTs now contain
the ELF symlinks.
+ Don't mess about with file system entries when handling shared objects in
bsd.pkg.mk, since it's likely that libtool and the BSD *.mk processing will
have got it right, and have a much better idea than we do.
+ Modify PLISTs to contain "ELF symlinks"
+ On a.out platforms, delete any "ELF symlinks" from the generated PLISTs
+ On ELF platforms, no extra processing needs to be done in bsd.pkg.mk
+ Modify print-PLIST target in bsd.pkg.mk to add dummy symlink entries on
a.out platforms
+ Update the documentation in Packages.txt
With many thanks to Thomas Klausner for keeping me honest with this.
