* port the m-e footnote bugfix to v2maint * trivialities; change the -fstrict option description * add a fistful of test cases for the new! improved! Markdown.pl compatible <tags> * rework the tag handler to more closely adhere to Markdown.pl's observed behavior; also treat incomplete tags as actual tags in compatability mode (-fstrict) * weird behavior on freebsd 4.8 w/ gcc 2.95.4; if a #ifdef ... #else ... #endif wraps the end of a if () it pukes up an error about a syntax error in a macro; pull those tests out and conditionally #define a macro instead * the behavior of tags-starting-with-alpha-/-! was not like that of the reference implementation; fixed (in a very script-kiddy leaky fashion which I can't resolve with a runtime flag thanks to the 32 bit flags field in the 2.x series :-( |

pkgsrc
pkgsrc is a framework for building software for a variety of UNIX-like systems.
It produces binary packages, which can be managed with tools such as
pkgin. pkgsrc is highly configurable, supporting
building packages for an arbitrary installation prefix (the default is
/usr/pkg
), allowing multiple branches to coexist on one machine, a
build options framework, and a compiler transformation framework, among
other advanced features. Unprivileged use and installation is also supported.
pkgsrc is the default package manager for NetBSD and SmartOS. It's also supported as a first-class option in OmniOS CE and Oasis Linux.
Bootstrapping
To use pkgsrc on operating systems other than NetBSD, you first need to bootstrap:
cd pkgsrc/bootstrap
./bootstrap
Note that this is only for the most simple case, using pkgsrc's defaults.
Please consult bootstrap/README
and bootstrap/README.OS
for detailed
information about bootstrapping.
Building packages
cd pkgsrc/category/package-name
$PREFIX/bin/bmake install
Where $PREFIX
is where you've chosen to install packages
(typically /usr/pkg
)
On NetBSD, bmake
is simply the built-in make
tool.
To build packages in bulk, tools such as pkgtools/pbulk
and
pkgtools/pkg_comp
can be used.
