This package creates ${LOCALBASE}/share/applications directory, but it
didn't attempt to remove it upon deinstallation. DEINSTALL fragment has
been updated to fix this.
Shared directories can now be created independently by the pacakges
needing them and will be removed automatically by pkg_delete when empty.
Packages needing empty directories can use the @pkgdir command in PLIST.
Discussed and ok'd in thread starting at
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-pkg/2009/06/30/msg003546.html
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.
Stop lying and drop maintainership of these packages. I have not
maintained them for a very long time already, so leave room for
fresh blood to take over them.
============
Version 0.15
============
o make the extension check for Icon key a warning instead of an error for now
(Ray Strode)
o Fix a crash in update-desktop-database when there's no group (Vincent)
o Fix a crash in the validator happening for very small lines (Vincent)
============
Version 0.14
============
o update of the Emacs editing mode for .desktop files (Ville Skyttä)
o make desktop-file-install print an error when trying to install a
non-existing desktop file, or a desktop file that can't be read (Vincent)
o make the validator check the content of the Icon key (Vincent)
o make the validator accept X-Foo as a valid environment (this was added to
the spec) (Stanislav Brabec, Vincent)
o really handle the -m command line argument for desktop-file-install
(Matthias Clasen)
o make desktop-file-install accept as one valid argument multiple
categories/only-show-in/mime-types values. Now --add-category="GNOME;GTK"
works as expected. (Vincent)
o make desktop-file-install validate the created desktop file before removing
the original file, and unlink it if it's not valid (Vincent)
o code cleanups for desktop-file-install (Vincent)
============
Version 0.13
============
o rewrite validator, and update it for desktop entry specification 1.0.
The validator should be stricter and report more useful messages.
(Vincent)
o add --warn-kde and --no-warn-deprecated command line options to
desktop-file-validate (Vincent)
o port desktop-file-install to GKeyFile (Vincent)
o don't require --vendor for desktop-file-install (Vincent)
o some general module cleanup (Vincent)
============
Version 0.12
============
o improves category validation code to not catch false positives (Vincent Fretin, Ville Skyttä, Ray Strode, Vincent Untz)
o make category validation code non-fatal (Ray)
o fix mem leaks and double frees (Pascal Terjan)
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
the pkglint warning:
As {INSTALL,DEINSTALL}_TEMPLATE is modified using "+=", its name
should indicate plural.
This does make the variables a bit more suggestive of the fact that they
hold lists of values.
This avoids the need for a confusing line of the form:
DEINSTALL_TEMPLATE+= path/to/INSTALL
in the package Makefile, and actually removes the need to specify it
altogether since by convention, the existence of the DEINSTALL script
is enough to add it to DEINSTALL_TEMPLATE.
============
Version 0.11
============
o Validate desktop file categories (Emmet Hikory, Vincent Untz)
o Use GKeyFile instead of the old egg code in update-desktop-database (Vincent)
o Use GOption instead of popt (Vincent)
o Fix grammar problem in one of the strings (Moritz Barsnick)
o NULL terminate search patch in update-desktop-database (Mike Hearn)
o Fix language to encoding mapping to match spec (Ville Skyttä)
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).
INSTALL/DEINSTALL script creation within pkgsrc.
If an INSTALL or DEINSTALL script is found in the package directory,
it is automatically used as a template for the pkginstall-generated
scripts. If instead, they should be used simply as the full scripts,
then the package Makefile should set INSTALL_SRC or DEINSTALL_SRC
explicitly, e.g.:
INSTALL_SRC= ${PKGDIR}/INSTALL
DEINSTALL_SRC= # emtpy
As part of the restructuring of the pkginstall framework internals,
we now *always* generate temporary INSTALL or DEINSTALL scripts. By
comparing these temporary scripts with minimal INSTALL/DEINSTALL
scripts formed from only the base templates, we determine whether or
not the INSTALL/DEINSTALL scripts are actually needed by the package
(see the generate-install-scripts target in bsd.pkginstall.mk).
In addition, more variables in the framework have been made private.
The *_EXTRA_TMPL variables have been renamed to *_TEMPLATE, which are
more sensible names given the very few exported variables in this
framework. The only public variables relating to the templates are:
INSTALL_SRC INSTALL_TEMPLATE
DEINSTALL_SRC DEINSTALL_TEMPLATE
HEADER_TEMPLATE
The packages in pkgsrc have been modified to reflect the changes in
the pkginstall framework.
file's sole purpose was to provide a dependency on pkg-config and set
some environment variables. Instead, turn pkg-config into a "tool"
in the tools framework, where the pkg-config wrapper automatically
adds PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR to the environment before invoking the real
pkg-config.
For all package Makefiles that included pkg-config/buildlink3.mk, remove
that inclusion and replace it with USE_TOOLS+=pkg-config.
by other package Makefiles, and with the deprecation of USE_BUILDLINK3
support in the infrastructure files, these had the potential to break
existing packages.
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.
desktop-file-utils contains a couple of command line utilities for working
with desktop entries and the applications database. More specifically,
it contains the update-desktop-database utility, used to rebuild the database
that connects MIME types to applications.
