binary-only packages that require binary "emulation" on the native
operating system. Please see pkgsrc/mk/emulator/README for more
details.
* Teach the plist framework to automatically use any existing
PLIST.${EMUL_PLATFORM} as part of the default PLIST_SRC definition.
* Convert all of the binary-only packages in pkgsrc to use the
emulator framework. Most of them have been tested to install and
deinstall correctly. This involves the following cleanup actions:
* Remove use of custom PLIST code and use PLIST.${EMUL_PLATFORM}
more consistently.
* Simplify packages by using default INSTALL and DEINSTALL scripts
instead of custom INSTALL/DEINSTALL code.
* Remove "SUSE_COMPAT32" and "PKG_OPTIONS.suse" from pkgsrc.
Packages only need to state exactly which emulations they support,
and the framework handles any i386-on-x86_64 or sparc-on-sparc64
uses.
* Remove "USE_NATIVE_LINUX" from pkgsrc. The framework will
automatically detect when the package is installing on Linux.
Specific changes to packages include:
* Bump the PKGREVISIONs for all of the suse100* and suse91* packages
due to changes in the +INSTALL/+DEINSTALL scripts used in all
of the packages.
* Remove pkgsrc/emulators/suse_linux, which is unused by any
packages.
* cad/lc -- remove custom code to create the distinfo file for
all supported platforms; just use "emul-fetch" and "emul-distinfo"
instead.
* lang/Cg-compiler -- install the shared libraries under ${EMULDIR}
instead of ${PREFIX}/lib so that compiled programs will find
the shared libraries.
* mail/thunderbird-bin-nightly -- update to latest binary
distributions for supported platforms.
* multimedia/ns-flash -- update Linux version to 9.0.48 as the
older version is no longer available for interactive fetch.
* security/uvscan -- set LD_LIBRARY_PATH explicitly so that
it's not necessary to install library symlinks into
${EMULDIR}/usr/local/lib.
* www/firefox-bin-flash -- update Linux version to 9.0.48 as the
older version is no longer available for interactive fetch.
X11_TYPE and some other settings which can overriden by the platform
defaults. This has the nice side effect of simplifying the handling
in bsd.prefs.mk. Discussed with and reviewed by wiz@. Keep the
documentation for USE_XPKGWEDGE in defaults/mk.conf as suggested by
salo@.
Don't add ${X11BASE}/bin to PATH, don't include mk/x11.buildlink3.mk
when USE_X11BASE is set and don't use BUILDLINK_X11_DIR and related
magic.

Packages may set PKG_DESTDIR_SUPPORT to either "destdir" or
"user-destdir" to flag support for this, following the same
rules as PKG_INSTALLATION_TYPES (e.g. define before first include
of bsd.prefs.mk).
The user activates it via USE_DESTDIR. When set to "yes",
packages with "user-destdir" are handled as "destdir".
The installation of the package will not go to ${LOCALBASE},
but a subdirectory of ${WRKDIR} instead. pre/post install scripts are
not run and the package is not registered either. A binary package
can be created instead to be installed normally with pkg_add.
For "user-destdir" packages, everything is run as normal user and
ownership is supposed to be correctled by pkg_create later. Since
the current pkg_install code uses pax and it doesn't allow overwriting
owners, this does not work yet.
For "destdir" packages, installation, packaging and cleaning is run as
root.
This commit does not change the handling of DEPENDS_TARGET or
bin-install to allow recursive usage.
are run with elevated privileges. Remove MAKE_PACKAGE_AS_ROOT
for now, since it is not sure whether the functionality in the current
form will stay and developers should spend time on the destdir support
instead.
since it is user settable and most of the time set by the user.
X11BASE follows the same reasons. For staged installations, we don't
want to register the package directly, so there's no need to prefix
PKG_DBDIR either.
as tight as possible. Files we don't handle shouldn't be skipped.
- fonts.alias is not created automatically, so don't remove it.
- create fonts.encoding with mkfontdir using -e X11_ENCODINGSDIR.
On platforms not following the X11R6 loayout this might need to
be overriden.
- Fix type1inst calls.
- Modify packages which installed fonts.alias before to actually
include it in the PLIST and bump the revisions accordingly.
- Modify xorg-fonts* packages to use FONTS_DIRS.* to build indices
at run time.
Discussed with wiz and jlam.
environment ${PKGSRC_MAKE_ENV} is also passed along. Create a
convenience variable RECURSIVE_MAKE that does exactly this and that
can be used in place of MAKE when invoking make recursively.
Use RECURSIVE_MAKE everywhere in pkgsrc/mk that we invoke make
recursively.
stages, and that installs dependencies listed in BOOTSTRAP_DEPENDS.
The bootstrap-depends step works just like the normal depends step
and honors the value of DEPENDS_TARGET. It's now possible to add
dependencies solely to facilitate fetching the distfiles, e.g.
BOOTSTRAP_DEPENDS+= curl-[0-9]*:../../www/curl
* Teach the tools framework about ":bootstrap" as a tools modifier
which indicates the tool should be added as a dependency via
BOOTSTRAP_DEPENDS.
* Add "digest" to the tools framework.
* Use USE_TOOLS+=digest:bootstrap to force pkgsrc to install digest
before anything else. Get rid of unused "uptodate-digest" target
and related digest version-checking code.
* Finish the refactoring work: split checksum-related code out of
bsd.pkg.mk and into pkgsrc/mk/checksum and replace the "checksum"
target command list with a script that does all the real work.
* Make DIGEST_ALGORITHMS and PATCH_DIGEST_ALGORITHM into private
variables by prepending them with an underscore. Also, rename
_PATCH_DIGEST_ALGORITHM to _PATCH_DIGEST_ALGORITHMS and adjust the
makepatchsum target to allow that variable to contain a list of
algorithms, all of which are used when creating the patch checksums
for ${DISTINFO_FILE}.
allow IMAKE to be set by anything other than the tools framework.
Modify the IRIX files so that the native imake is listed as a built-in
tool in the case where X11_TYPE is "native". Also, move the include
of tools/default.mk a bit lower in bsd.prefs.mk so that tools.${OPSYS}.mk
files can use the value of X11_TYPE. This should properly set and
point IMAKE to the right binary on IRIX without destroying the
configuration for platforms where IMAKE was not explicitly set, i.e.
every non-IRIX platform.
bsd.pkg.mk. They didn't actually need to be defined in bsd.prefs.mk,
just somewhere before the "main" bsd.<phase>.mk files were included.
This moves some conditional (?=) definitions back into bsd.pkg.mk so
they won't conflict with any conditional definitions in package
Makefiles.
This should fix the "checksum" problems in lang/php-gd as noted here:
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/pkgsrc-users/2006/06/05/0012.html
where EXTRACT_SUFX had the wrong value due to the order in while *.mk
files were included.
into a new file pkgsrc/mk/tools/create.mk. This leaves bsd.tools.mk
as a file that pulls in all of the other ones. Also move the
tools-related targets from bsd.pkg.mk into bsd.tools.mk.
The tools cookie file has been removed, as well as hooks for
{pre,do,post}-tools. Instead, there is now only a single public target
"tools" which may be invoked. Invoking "tools" will always cause all
of the tools in ${TOOLS_DIR} to be created.
The "tools" step has been moved and is now just after the "depends"
step and before sources are extracted. This is the earliest place
where the "tools" step can be taken, and it allows the created tools
to be used in all steps/phases after it, starting with "extract". As
a consequence, we should just invoke tools by their bare names in
targets, e.g. awk, sed, patch, etc., instead of with the ${VARIABLE}
names, e.g. ${AWK}, ${SED}, ${PATCH}, etc.
pkgsrc/mk. Also get rid of the recursive make for the "patch" target.
This basically merges the "patch" phase into the "tools" phase.
There should eventually be a standalone script that can be used to
verify checksums listed in distinfo that should be used instead of
the roll-your-own code in the do-pkgsrc-patch target.
subdirectories of pkgsrc/mk. Move the following files around for
locality:
pkgsrc/mk/scripts/extract -> pkgsrc/mk/extract/extract
pkgsrc/mk/bsd.sites.mk -> pkgsrc/mk/fetch/sites.mk
Also get rid of the recursive make for the "fetch" and "extract"
targets. This basically merges the "fetch" and "extract" phases into
the "patch" phase.
There is still much more work to do to simplify the fetch code, but
this is a good start.
than pkgsrc's current one. This is an important lead-up to any project
that redesigns the pkg_* tools in that it doesn't tie us to past design
(mis)choices. This commit mostly deals with rearranging code, although
there was a considerable amount of rewriting done in cases where I
thought the code was somewhat messy and was difficult to understand.
The design I chose for supporting multiple package system flavors is
that the various depends, install, package, etc. modules would define
default targets and variables that may be overridden in files from
pkgsrc/mk/flavor/${PKG_FLAVOR}. The default targets would do the
sensible thing of doing nothing, and pkgsrc infrastructure would rely
on the appropriate things to be defined in pkgsrc/mk/flavor to do the
real work. The pkgsrc/mk/flavor directory contains subdirectories
corresponding to each package system flavor that we support. Currently,
I only have "pkg" which represents the current pkgsrc-native package
flavor. I've separated out most of the code where we make assumptions
about the package system flavor, mostly either because we directly
use the pkg_* tools, or we make assumptions about the package meta-data
directory, or we directly manipulate the package meta-data files, and
placed it into pkgsrc/mk/flavor/pkg.
There are several new modules that have been refactored out of bsd.pkg.mk
as part of these changes: check, depends, install, package, and update.
Each of these modules has been slimmed down by rewriting them to avoid
some recursive make calls. I've also religiously documented which
targets are "public" and which are "private" so that users won't rely
on reaching into pkgsrc innards to call a private target.
The "depends" module is a complete overhaul of the way that we handle
dependencies. There is now a separate "depends" phase that occurs
before the "extract" phase where dependencies are installed. This
differs from the old way where dependencies were installed just before
extraction occurred. The reduce-depends.mk file is now replaced by
a script that is invoked only once during the depends phase and is
used to generate a cookie file that holds the full set of reduced
dependencies. It is now possible to type "make depends" in a package
directory and all missing dependencies will be installed.
Future work on this project include:
* Resolve the workflow design in anticipation of future work on
staged installations where "package" conceptually happens before
"install".
* Rewrite the buildlink3 framework to not assume the use of the
pkgsrc pkg_* tools.
* Rewrite the pkginstall framework to provide a standard pkg_*
tool to perform the actions, and allowing a purely declarative
file per package to describe what actions need to be taken at
install or deinstall time.
* Implement support for the SVR4 package flavor. This will be
proof that the appropriate abstractions are in place to allow
using a completely different set of package management tools.
using it in a test to set _MAKE. With this change pkgsrc works on
NetBSD/i386 3.0 to build with an empty environment (env -i sh).
Tested with my ~100 favourite server packages. Does not affect
the case when PATH is already set. To have a per OPSYS default path
the include of platform/${OPSYS}.mk will probably need to be at
the top of bsd.prefs.mk - arguably it should be there already.
There are bound to be assumptions made by some packages which will
be broken by an empty env, but the bulk of pkgsrc and in particular
the infrastructure works fine.
ALLOW_VULNERABLE_PACKAGES settings that applies to all packages, there can
now be per-package lists of allowed vulnerability ids:
ALLOW_VULNERABILITIES.<pkgname>=<space separated list of vulnids>
To avoid duplication of code, audit-packages is now used to do these checks.
It can be skipped altogether by setting:
SKIP_AUDIT_PACKAGES=yes
