The Perl version of pkglint (pkglint<5.0) runs on all platforms that are supported by pkgsrc. Not so the Go version (pkglint>=5.0). To support development of packages on all platforms, this version is provided, and it will be supported equally. Its output differs a bit from pkglint>=5.0, but the basic checks are the same.

Please add your own entries at the bottom of this file. If possible,
|
|
include the name of an example package where a warning should occur.
|
|
|
|
* When you understand some behavior of the code, document it by
|
|
adding automated tests to pkglint.t!
|
|
* warn about the use of ${WRKDIR:=...}, as this construct should only
|
|
be used with lists.
|
|
* Add checks for binary packages. See Debian/lintian for ideas.
|
|
* Of the user-defined variables, some may be used at load-time and some
|
|
don't. Find out how pkglint can distinguish them.
|
|
* Make sure that no variable is modified at load-time after it has been
|
|
used once. This should at least flag BUILD_DEFS in bsd.pkg.mk.
|
|
* Invent an annotation scheme for files that intentionally define
|
|
variables for use in other files.
|
|
* ${MACHINE_ARCH}-${LOWER_OPSYS}elf in PLISTs etc. is a NetBSD config.guess
|
|
problem ==> use of ${APPEND_ELF}
|
|
* Packages including lang/python/extension.mk must follow the Python version
|
|
scheme. Enforcing PYPKGPREFIX for those is most likely a good idea.
|
|
* Check for parallel files/dirs whose names differ only in case.
|
|
* Check for license files that are completely unused.
|
|
* If a dependency depends on an option (in options.mk), it should also
|
|
depend on the same option in the buildlink3.mk file.
|
|
* Complain about ${PKGSRC_COMPILER} == "sunpro", which should be
|
|
!empty(PKGSRC_COMPILER:Msunpro).
|
|
* If USE_TOOLS has autoconf213, and the package does stuff like
|
|
cd ${WRKSRC} && autoconf, then an incorrect warning is issued.
|
|
* LOCALBASE should not be used in normal Makefiles
|
|
* don't complain about "procedure calls", like for pkg-build-options in
|
|
the various buildlink3.mk files.
|
|
* if package A conflicts with B, then B should also conflict with A.
|
|
* When pkglint runs on a case-insensitive filesystem, it should still
|
|
point out problems that only occur on case-sensitive filesystems. For
|
|
example, devel/p5-Net-LDAP and devel/p5-Net-ldap should be considered
|
|
different paths.
|
|
* Warn about using REPLACE_PYTHON without including application.mk.
