Infrastructure problems which need addressing
=============================================
o fix lang/gcc to not look in ${PREFIX}/include (and lib) for
header files and libraries, as this defeats the purpose of
buildlink2 and causes problems building pkgs (Solaris, where
it is installed into ${PREFIX}, unlike gcc3).
o fix lang/gcc to be able to find static libgcc (e.g.
devel/ncurses on Solaris).
o fix lang/gcc3 so pkgs can find shared libgcc, libstdc++,
etc., or static library if built with --disable-shared.
Suggested pkgsrc enhancements
=============================
o Add a sort check to pkglint for PLISTs.
o Allow tokens in Makefiles, etc to silence pkglint WARNS.
e.g. # ABS_PATH could silence an absolute path warning
such as
WARN: possible use of absolute pathname "/usr", in Makefile.
o Make pkgsrc work on more operating systems.
o Permit cross-building of packages which are capable of
doing so (e.g. ones that use GNU autoconf properly).
o Man page handling in PLIST for pkgs which install catman or
man pages depending on OS (typically imake).
Suggested other platform enhancements
=====================================
o platform independent bulk build infrastructure
o Solaris
o add implicit gpatch BUILD_DEPENDS if gpatch is not
available
Suggested cleanups in pkgsrc
============================
o Make packages install their configuration files under the
examples hierarchy, using bsd.pkg.install.mk to copy them
to the PKG_SYSCONFDIR directory when necessary.
o Make packages install honour PKGLOCALEDIR by setting
USE_PKGLOCALEDIR=YES where appropriate (for eg. Solaris).
o Deprecate LTCONFIG_OVERRIDE -- replace with appropriate
LIBTOOL_OVERRIDE
o Fix remaining packages to install documentation into share/doc
instead of share/gtk-doc (usually,
CONFIGURE_ARGS+= --with-html-dir=${PREFIX}/share/doc/html
does the trick; additionally, one might set
CONFIGURE_ARGS+= --enable-gtk-doc=no
to avoid a gtk-doc dependency if html documentation is shipped
with the package). Please fill in GNOME bug reports if any of
the packages do not honor these configuration options and/or do
not ship with pregenerated html documents.
o Make packages utilize USE_X11 instead of USE_X11BASE if there is no
good reason to install them into X11BASE.
o Remove patches to p5-* packages that strip MAN3POD definitions
from Makefile.PL. The perl packages now correctly install man
pages, so this workaround isn't needed anymore.
