Ports

FreeBSD Port: x11/gnome-clipboard-daemon
clipboard-daemon port does not work on Unbutu 8.04. Unbutu forum is full with complains. If somebody is intersted in the detail: 1. a: start gedit, type, select, ctrl-C,close gedit b: start AbiWord, Paste is avaliable, bu NOTHING is pasted (even not an empty string). 2. a: a: start gedit, type, select, ctrl-C,c... 20 Jun 2008 14:18

sysutils/screen package
Hi, List. I noticed that there isn't a package for sysutils/screen for 7.0. Compiling it from ports works fine, and I looked around and wasn't able to find logs relevant to it on http://pointyhat.freebsd.org/errorlogs/, so I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on why it's not available. Thanks. -Bo... 20 Jun 2008 11:13

kdebase3 package is missing in 7-stable
Le Thu, 19 Jun 2008 19:08:43 +0200, Kris Kennaway <kris(a)FreeBSD.org> a �crit : kdebase3 package for 7-stable/i386 is missing on the FTP. Yes. This happens from time to time when the ports or their dependencies are broken. Thank you Kris. I think something is wrong because It was never uploa... 19 Jun 2008 14:44

Who should honor WITHOUT_X11?
Trying to build dbus recently on my system without X11 installed, I ran into a few compile issues because I had put WITHOUT_X11=yes into src.conf. However, I put WITHOUT_X11=yes into make.conf and was able to compile dbus properly (in the end). So, my questions are: 1. Should make.conf be responsible for the WIT... 19 Jun 2008 11:38

print/pdftk: Lonely orphan port needs attention (print/pdftk brokenon 7.0 after gettext work (appx))
pdftk was a handy utility for splitting and combining bits of .pdfs. Given a list of .pdfs it could extract page ranges of input .pdfs and combine them to produce a new .pdf. Breakage may have been inevitable since pdftk is so old and unmaintained... It's also i386 only which seems to have scared off potenti... 19 Jun 2008 07:32

regression-test
So I just learned that pointyhat tries to run a target regression-test as part of the build. (Somebody asked me to use that target in a port.) Is this documented somewhere? In particular, running tests of what duration would be considered appropriate? E.g., building audio/flac takes a minute here, running t... 19 Jun 2008 14:44

why some ports still use openldap-client23?
Yuri Pankov a �crit : While WANT_* variables are restricted to usage inside ports framework (quoting bsd.port.mk), the only way that I've found to force openldap-client24 is WANT_OPENLDAP_VER=24. HTH, Yuri Hi Yuri, Yes it works, I will use it until all ports use openldap-client24. Thanks ... 19 Jun 2008 01:22

Question about ports adding cronjobs
I have a piece of software I've been working on that gathers stats about the local host and shoves them into rrd files, with an accompanying web front-end page that generates pretty graphs from the RRDs on demand. I have a package done up for it, and I'd like to add it to the ports tree eventually, but I'm... 19 Jun 2008 01:22
