|

|
|

.Nm pkglint

|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm
|
|
tries to verify the content of a pkgsrc directory.
|
|
The purpose of
|
|
.Nm
|
|
can be separated into two parts:
|
|
.Pq 1
|
|
to let the submitters easily polish her/his own pkgsrc directory, and
|
|
.Pq 2
|
|
to decrease the labor of the committers.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Nm
|
|
uses very simple regular-expression matching for verifying
|
|
files that make up a pkgsrc directory.
|
|
Note that it does NOT implement a complete parser for those files.
|
|
Because of this the user may see some extra warnings,
|
|
especially when checking complex
|
|
.Pa Makefile Ns No s .

.It Fl B Ar n

(by default,
|
|
.Ar n
|
|
is 1.)

|
|
.It Fl I
|

|
This flag is mainly for debugging.
|
|
.It Fl N
|
|
New package flag.
|
|
Adds several checks specific to newly submitted packages.
|
|
If you are willing to submit the directory to be checked as a new package,
|
|
use this option.
|
|
This option is deprecated.
|
|
Use
|
|
.Fl C Ns Ar newpkg
|
|
instead.
|
|
.It Fl v Ns | Ns Fl -verbose

|
|
from what is recorded in the distinfo file.
|
|

.Sy Other arguments
|
|
.It dir
|

The pkgsrc directory to be checked.
|

If omitted, all checks will be performed on the current directory.
|

|
|
.Sh FILES
|
|
.Bl -tag -width /usr/share/mk/bsd.port.mk -compact
|

.It Pa /usr/pkgsrc/mk/bsd.pkg.mk

master Makefile for pkgsrc

.Sh EXAMPLES
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Fl
|
|
.Ic "pkglint -Cnone,patches ."
|
|
Checks the patches of the package in the current directory.
|
|
.Ic "pkglint -Wall /usr/pkgsrc/devel"
|
|
Checks the category Makefile and reports any warnings it can find.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
|
|
Messages will be sent to standard output, not standard error.
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "WARN: foobaa"
|
|
.It FATAL: ...
|
|
This type of error messages suggests that there is some fatal error
|
|
in the pkgsrc directory.
|
|
For example, if some files need a rewrite, or if
|
|
some necessary files are missing, this message will show up.
|
|
This kind of error should be fixed BEFORE submitting a package via
|
|
.Xr send-pr 1 .
|
|
.\"If a submitter submit it without update, committers will need to rewrite
|
|
.\"on behalf of the submitters, which may result in delay of
|
|
.\"the development of operating system itself.
|
|
.It WARN: ...
|
|
This type of error messages suggests that some files may (or may not)
|
|
need some fixes.
|
|
Basically, warnings are produced when
|
|
.Nm
|
|
is not completely sure about the result.
|
|
For example, complex
|
|
.Pa Makefile Ns No s
|
|
may need some statements that can match the regular expression
|
|
.Nm
|
|
uses for sanity checks.
|
|
In those cases, the user should evaluate the result manually,
|
|
and obey/ignore the result.
|
|
.It OK: ...
|
|
This type of messages is used in verbose mode

.Sh BUGS
|
|
.Nm
|
|
still emits too many false positive warnings.
|
|
Many of the warnings concerning Makefiles do not print the file
|
|
and line number where the warning originated.
