Re: overnight upgrade interrupted by questions
A lot of people would reply that they'd like to configure the ports
themselves before launching the installation, leading people to
suggest scripts such as:
#!/bin/sh
plist=`pkg_version -ovl'' |awk '{ print $1 }'`
for porg in $plist ; do
cd /usr/ports/${porg} make config-recursive
done
Before I go and annoy someone on the portupgrade list, does anyone
here know if the portupgrade people have decided this is unnecessary

Tracking base system and kernel updates/vulnerabilities
Hi, is there a tool, like portaudit for the ports tree, to track updates and/or vulnerabilities for the base system and the kernel? What I'm looking for is a tool that will check my current installation against a specific checkout of the CVS source and kernel trees considering a specific CVS tag and inform me where my system is outdated and vulnerable. I don't know if this is even possible by just having the CVS trees ... For the kernel, is there something like a linear version number in the -STABLE branches? I noticed there's a pX in the kernel version for release kernels. How do I for example compare the currentness of two 7.0-STABLE kernels if I don't know from what source they were build?

If the port controls installing the manpages, then you can set
NO_INSTALL_MANPAGES in /etc/make.conf.
If they're installed by the underlying software's install script, then you
can't control that from the port.
You can of course, nullfs mount the ${LOCALBASE}/man directory on the image
build machine to a different location and then unmount it from under the
image once all ports are installed.
Linking to /dev/null as suggested will likely screw with install targets.

Ports should honour the NOPORTDOCS make variable and not install any documentation (including man pages). I don't see evidence of that in /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk: Meaning, I don't see any location where MAN# variables are merged with PORTDOCS or where NOPORTDOCS interacts with MAN#. As far as I can tell, if MAN# variables are set by the port, then they are compressed/uncompressed based on NOMANCOMPRESS. If imake is used to install manpages, then NO_INSTALL_MANPAGES is respected, because the port knows there's a fixed target to install manpages when using imake. Gmake/autotools ports include the man page install in the main install target in between 10 or 20 fake targets to support the autotools experience and making it next to impossible to seperate installstages. -- Mel Problem with today's modular software: they start with the modules and never get to the software part. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Sorry to disappoint you, but that wont work for two reasons:
1) make config-recursive is flawed by design, because it makes a dependency
list based on current settings and if you alter dependencies during your
recursive configuring, it will not update the list.
2) If you hit an interactive configure (not config, configure) target, then
you will still end up with a dialog. Prime example: print/ghostscript-gpl.
If you wanted to script the first case, you'd do the following in every origin

mbuf chains / records in networking
I'm porting an Ethernet driver LRO mechanism (Large Recieve Offload) from Linux to FreeBSD. I learned a bit about mbuf chains and records, but i couldn't understand whether the OS is capable of eating a whole mbuf record (mbuf linked using m_cat, by their m_nextpkt pointer) on the RX side. Can I simply concat my incoming network mbufs, each one with his own TCP/IP headers, and push the whole record up the stack in one operation? or should I strip all the packets and build a single TCP/IP header in the first mbuf before I push the record up?

Odd buildworld and installworld problems
Greetings, We have been attempting to upgrade several servers from 6.2 to 6.3. We have been using a shared source tree on an nfs mount to both build and install our systems. We run a mix of virtual and physical servers in our environment. Our physical systems are all dual-xeon machines running an SMP kernel and our virtual machines are all single processor systems running single processor kernels. We have successfully upgraded 19 systems so far using source compiled on one of our virtual machines (single processor) including 7 of our physical servers. So we built the source and kernels on a shared nfs mount on one virtual machine, mounted that share as /usr/src with a shared obj tree as well and successfully installed both source and kernels on 19 machines, including 7 dual processor physical servers. The problem comes now that installworld will no longer complete on any new server. We have downloaded and recompiled new source, created new obj trees and still run in to sporadic failures with installworld on new virtual machines. I have tried compiling the source on another virtual machine as well as on a physical server but I am still having sporadic failures on installworld. it will fail giving a no such file or directory error genenerally in bsnmpd. So the question is, has anyone seen errors like this? Would compiling source and kernels on an SMP physical server cause install problems on a single processor virtual-machine?

determining what's in the base system
I have two questions. First: Assume you have a FreeBSD system installed that has been running for at least a year, with a bunch of graphical desktop and productivity software installed, and have both installed and uninstalled a lot of software over that time. Now imagine that you want to know whether a given utility was something that came with the base system or was installed by some port or package later on. What's the easiest way to do that (preferably without installing the FreeBSD base system on a computer and checking whether the utility is present)? Second: Where can I get a list of all licenses on all software in the base system? I know there's at least the BSD License, the GPL, and the LGPL, but I'm a little hazy on what else is in there. I'm pretty sure there isn't any proprietary closed source software in there, but I wouldn't bet any substantial amount of money on it at this point, because I haven't really checked into it. -- CCD CopyWrite Chad Perrin [ http://ccd.apotheon.org ] Sen.

Run pkg_which on the name of the file, and it will tell you which port that file comes from. Otherwise, the file is part of the base system, or created by a user. Second: Where can I get a list of all licenses on all software in the base system? I know there's at least the BSD License, the GPL, and the LGPL, but I'm a little hazy on what else is in there. There are dozens of variants of the BSD License, and the closely related Zlib/PNG license; there are also MIT, GPL, LGPL, a bit of Sun's SISSL or CDDL, and probably other licenses present. A decent starting point is: % locate LICENSE [ ... ] /usr/src/contrib/bzip2/LICENSE /usr/src/contrib/groff/LICENSE /usr/src/contrib/ipfilter/perl/LICENSE /usr/src/contrib/less/LICENSE /usr/src/contrib/libpcap/LICENSE /usr/src/contrib/nvi/LICENSE /usr/src/contrib/openbsm/LICENSE /usr/src/contrib/openpam/LICENSE /usr/src/contrib/pam_modules/pam_passwdqc/LICENSE /usr/src/contrib/sendmail/LICENSE /usr/src/contrib/tcpdump/LICENSE /usr/src/crypto/openssl/LICENSE /usr/src/lib/libc/rpc/LICENSE /usr/src/sys/contrib/dev/npe/LICENSE /usr/src/sys/dev/em/LICENSE /usr/src/sys/dev/ixgb/LICENSE /usr/src/sys/dev/rr232x/LICENSE /usr/src/usr.sbin/mrouted/LICENSE -- -Chuck ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Copy-paste is broken in KDE?
I am seeing occasionally that selected text isn't being copied into the clipboard and isn't available for subsequent paste (with the middle mouse button). In most cases it works, maybe in 1% cases it doesn't, still enough to make it annoying. Also for example I am not able to copy the selected text in the previously sent message in skype-2.0.0.68 (Linux app) to the clipboard and paste it to thunderbird. But if I first paste it to the shell window and copy again it then pastes to thunderbird ok. Anybody observes these kind of copy-paste problems? Are they known issues? I am using KDE 3.5.8 and FreeBSD 7.0-STABLE Yuri ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Openldap server install failure - openldap client conflict
I sent this to ports but then reconsidered this- I thought ports was for ports errors, but a quick look back and it mostly seems to be just for testing. Anyway, I hope I rectified this sufficiently... I'm trying to install OpenLDAP as a server to attempt to try it out for our network. The problem is the openldap client is already installed for other apps as php, apache, asterisk, etc. So my question is: is it possible to uninstall the client? Will the server include the client required for these other apps? And while I'm here... I tried installing the odbc backend, but it conflicts with other apps as well. How can I have both the libiodbc and unixodbc at the same time for openldap server (requires libiodbc), php5, etc?

Re: How to switch scheduler on 7.0?
On Tue, 15 Apr 2008 at 21:59 +0200, [EMAIL PROTECTED] confabulated: Hi! I would like to switch scheduler on my FreeBSD 7.0 box but I don't know how to do that. The scheduler by default has terrible performances under KDE/Gnome and I would like to test the new one. In light of your message, I was provoked to switched my workstation at work to using the sched_ule thread scheduler. I do not have remote access set up via a graphical interface, so I can not test anything yet as far as KDE is concerned. However, I have noticed a performance increase with an ssh session into my workstation. Whether this is psychological or not, I doubt as I have become sensitive over the years to network speed. I am running on a dual Pentium III system: duane# grep CPU /var/run/dmesg.boot CPU: Intel Pentium III (999.67-MHz 686-class CPU) FreeBSD/SMP: Multiprocessor System Detected: 2 CPUs ... Nothing else has been altered from default settings as far as any make files or anything else.
