Package views integration plan:
|
|
==============================
|
|
|
|
(1) Modify pkgsrc internals (bsd.pkg.mk & friends) to build and
|
|
install depoted packages if PKG_INSTALLATION_TYPE is set to
|
|
"pkgviews" in the package Makefile, and to add the depoted
|
|
package to the default view. The depoted package will include
|
|
all of it's metadata files in the depot directory, and we rely
|
|
on pkg_view to copy the metadata files into /var/db/pkg as
|
|
part of adding the package to the default view. We only
|
|
support the default view. Depoted packages will install into
|
|
${LOCALBASE}/packages and the default view will be through
|
|
${LOCALBASE} for all packages.
|
|
|
|
Using this infrastructure, depoted packages that have been added to
|
|
the default view should look and feel like a non-depoted package in
|
|
all respects, down to what you find in /var/db/pkg/${PKGNAME}, so
|
|
non-depoted packages can depend on depoted packages without change.
|
|
|
|
(2) Migrate non-USE_X11BASE and non-USE_IMAKE packages to set
|
|
PKG_INSTALLATION_TYPE to "pkgviews". Depoted packages can only
|
|
depend on other depoted packages. A depoted package will have
|
|
<deppkg_dir>/lib and ${LOCALBASE}/lib in the run-time library
|
|
search path (-Wl,-R*) so that wildcard dependencies on library
|
|
packages will still work (so long as the major number of the shlib
|
|
hasn't increased).
|
|
|
|
At this point, all packages in pkgsrc except for those that define
|
|
USE_X11BASE or USE_IMAKE will be depoted.
|
|
|
|
(3) Make xpkgwedge the default for pkgsrc. It would be nice to
|
|
enhance xpkgwedge in some way so that a package could be compiled
|
|
with the correct defaults for finding app-defaults files without
|
|
having the user fiddle with environment variables.
|
|
|
|
This is a flag day change and will require bumping the PKGREVISIONs
|
|
for every single USE_X11BASE and USE_IMAKE package and all packages
|
|
that depend on them.
|
|
|
|
(4) Migrate the USE_X11BASE and USE_IMAKE packages to set
|
|
PKG_INSTALLATION_TYPE to "pkgviews".
