What is the best way to maintain local ports tree changes?
I am building packages in poudriere, 4 different sets for 2 archs (8
sets in total).
I have some local ports and some changes to official ports. Now we are
planing to do some small changes in ports/Mk too.
I would advise against patching the framework directly, most things are
configurable, what problems do you have with ports/Mk ?
For example I would like to rip of some lines from Mk/Uses/php.mk
Some time ago when etc/php/extensions.ini was split in to many pieces
the following messages was introduced for each and every PHP extension
installed / upgraded
## {{{ message
****************************************************************************
Message from php56-filter-5.6.32:
****************************************************************************
The following line has been added to your
/usr/local/etc/php/ext-20-filter.ini
configuration file to automatically load the installed extension:
extension=filter.so
## }}} message
It is really annoying to have terminal scrolled 300 lines just to show
me this.
I understand it was useful for somebody for transition period but now...?
Are you aware of the Mk/bsd.local.mk file that is there to allow you to
not change the other files ?
I am not aware of Mk/bsd.local.mk but I think it will not allow me to
modify behaviour of Mk/Uses/php.mk
As for the ports, you can also add a Makefile.local that will be parsed
after the main Makefile, it may help you depending on what you change in
existing ports.
I have small patches for some ports like ports-mgmt/pkg (I submitted it
few years ago without any attention).
We need to keep sysutils/tmux on version 2.3 because newer versions are
buggy (tmux author said it is feature and refuse to restore old
behaviour - I also posted in FreeBSD mailing lists about this issue)
We are patching benchmarks/sysbench to use vim-lite as dependency
instead of full Vim:
BUILD_DEPENDS= xxd:editors/vim-lite
Those are just examples why I would like to have some small patches
applied to ports tree after sync with official ports tree but do not
want to use local category for each of this modification.
I found ports-mgmt/portshaker - is it right tool for my use case?
