variable is much more comfortable than specifying all the directories in
INSTALLATION_DIRS that using such a long name for it feels like a
punishment. It also doesn't look nice in the package Makefiles, for
example:
old:
INSTALLATION_DIRS= bin ${PKGMANDIR}/man1 ${PKGMANDIR}/man8
new:
AUTO_MKDIRS= yes
The variable INSTALLATION_DIRS_FROM_PLIST will be deprecated slowly.
CONF_FILES, CONF_FILES_PERMS, REQD_FILES, REQD_FILES_PERMS is wrong.
NB: The code doesn't read like "shift 5 || error_out" since NetBSD's
shell exits if a shift fails in this case, instead of just reporting an
error.
Fixes PR 37489.
I didn't fix the code in pkglint (which was suggested in the PR) since
it seems too complicated to me. There is no support for a
"MultipleShellWords" data type by now, and pkglint would have to know
that SETUID_ROOT_PERMS is of type "ThreeShellWords: Username, Groupname,
Filemode". That's too much work and doesn't look nicely.
and then call it as a shell function. Note that the shell function is
not called "cache", since some shells have problems when a function has
the same name as a variable.
This speeds up the wrapper by as little as 75 percent for the final link
command of editors/abiword on SunOS-5.10-sparc (before: 20 seconds,
after: 5 seconds).
As proposed on pkgsrc-users@...
- Introduce NAGIOSDIR, defaults to VARBASE/spool/nagios, for log
and status files.
- Drop unused(?) 'nagadmin' user and group.
- Sync user and group handling with Nagios install
documentation/recommendations. Introduce the Nagios "external
command" group, NAGIOSCMD_GROUP, defaults to APACHE_GROUP. The
Nagios user should be manually added after package installation to
the NAGIOSCMD_GROUP group. Add this recommandation to the MESSAGE
file. Make the "external command directory", NAGIOSDIR/rw, owned
by NAGIOS_USER:NAGIOSCMD_GROUP.
- Use /var/run/nagios.lock as pidfile.
- Only install existing example configuration files.
- Put default values of NAGIOSDIR, NAGIOS_USER, NAGIOS_GROUP and
NAGIOSCMD_GROUP in mk/defaults/mk.conf and allow MAKECONF to
override them.
- Miscellaneous clean up and sync with the changes mentionned above.
- When deleting the package allow removal of directories shared
with other Nagios packages to fail.
The later is shell script which tries to execute "<current-dir>/flex"
under Mac OS X Leopard. This resulted in an endless loop caused by
the buildlink wrappers.
This is backward compatible with at least Mac OS X Tiger where
"/usr/bin/lex" and "/usr/bin/flex" are identical.
CONF_FILES and similar exist, since the pkginstall framework skips them
silently, which is not a good idea.
For example I just installed dovecot, and there was neither a
configuration file installed nor a message that a configuration file
exists at all.
