force the developers to learn all pkgsrc changes every three months, so
it's better to keep the warnings for a much longer time. I don't know
yet what "much longer" exactly means.
assigned using the "?=" operator, since these variables are not meant to
be set by the user.
- Restricted the files that are checked for absolute pathnames in patch
files.
Changes since 4.54:
- -Wvarorder works now as expected.
- distinfo files are checked more strictly.
- Reduced the number of false positives.
- Make(1) variables of the form $(...) are detected properly.
${TOOL.${t}}. They just extend up to, but not including the next space or
quote character.
- log_debug() is used for printing debugging info, not log_error().
- Even if NO_CHECKSUM is set, distinfo files may exist if the package has
patches. Noted by salo.
- Added PkgLint::String::match_all.
- Make(1) variables of the form $(...) are detected properly.
- The shellword parser's state is printed in --debug mode.
- In double quoted strings, normal text is processed faster.
- The proof of concept for match_all is done with finding absolute
pathnames in patch files.
- Added PkgLint::Match, which represents the result of matching a regular
expression against a PkgLint::String.
- Fixed the arguments to substr in PkgLint::String::substring.
- Added PkgLint::String::match.
- Added a proof of concept in checkfile_patch, in the warning about RCS
tags. Run pkglint -s --klickibunti to see it.
Makefile is read in are logged to give further aid in debugging.
- Warnings about PKGNAME and DISTNAME are anchored at line numbers instead
of the package Makefile.
for the sake of compatibility tests in pkg_add.
E.g. DragonFly versions like
1.4.0-RELEASE
are reduced to
1.4.0
This code is currently enabled for DragonFly only.
- Fixed GCC 4.x build warning (which would have resulted in an error
with future GCC versions).
- Depend on newer version of "rpm" package to fix build under Mac OS X.
"extract" script for extraction. Many cases where a custom EXTRACT_CMD
simply copied the distfile into the work directory are no longer
needed. The extract script also hides differences between pax and
tar behind a common command-line interface, so we no longer need code
that's conditional on whether EXTRACT_USING is tar or pax.
Changes since 4.53:
- Added about 50 new variables to be type-checked.
- For unknown variables, the type is guessed from the variable name.
- In patch files that patch Makefiles, added lines are checked for
absolute pathnames.
- Replaced the -Wdebug option with --debug, so that the debugging warnings
don't show up when using -Wall.
- Many minor improvements.
latter has been removed.
- Added -Wvarorder (default: disabled) to check the ordering of variables
in simple packages.
- Using ${WRKSRC}/.. is only considered a warning, not an error, because
there are packages that work nevertheless. Using this construct remains
discouraged.
- Replaced most of the TODOs in the source code with code that prints
a warning in --debug mode.
- The characters '.' and '+' are allowed in BuildlinkPackages.
- Variables *_FLAGS and *_ARGS that have their type guessed based on the
name don't have to be assigned using the += operator.
- Variables that are assigned using the != operator are not checked for
type compliance.
- README files are not marked as unknown when they appear in a package
directory.
precision in checkfile_patch for the warning for context diffs.
- The --source option produces more condensed output than before.
- The diagnostics with character-wise precision are colored using
ANSI/VT100 color sequences. Support for other output formats will be
added later.
with the change from December 2005, when using this feature, care should
be taken for variables that are pre-quoted.
- In patch files that patch Makefiles, added lines are checked for
absolute pathnames.
