Automatic conversion of the NetBSD pkgsrc CVS module, use with care

cups was added as default recently without broad discussion. pkgsrc has long declined to endorse/require a particular approach to printing (because of the multitude of strong opinions about printing). Defaulting to cups requires that everyone install it, and some object. In addition, cups does not build on macos, resulting in all packages depending on gtk3 being broken. The cups option is not enabled by default on other packages. It seems that this option is not necessary for programs using gtk3 to print on a cups-using system. I'm reverting this as the freeze coordinator so that 2018Q2 has the longstanding behavior. Longer term, the question of whether cups should be a default option bears discussion, including about what the cosequences are for those who do and don't use cups, whether it should be per-package or global, and about whether we want to deviate on systems that can't build cups. (Note that we are only talking about the defaults and binary packages built using the defaults; it's long been possible for anyone to enable the cups options globally for their own builds.) |

$NetBSD: README,v 1.19 2017/03/02 09:51:35 maya Exp $ pkgsrc is a framework for building software on UNIX-like systems. To use, bootstrap using: % cd pkgsrc/bootstrap/ % ./bootstrap build packages, use: % cd pkgsrc/category/package-name % $PREFIX/bin/bmake install Where $PREFIX is where you've chosen to install packages (typically /usr/pkg) Bugs and patches can be filed in the follow link (use category 'pkg'): https://www.netbsd.org/cgi-bin/sendpr.cgi?gndb=netbsd To fetch the main CVS repository: % cvs -d anoncvs@anoncvs.NetBSD.org:/cvsroot checkout -P pkgsrc It's also possible to contribute through pkgsrc wip (work in progress), for more information, see http://pkgsrc.org/wip/users/ Please see doc/pkgsrc.txt for information.
