Thank for the advise, though it is better to submit your requests via
the Problem Reporting mechanism at

http://freebsd.org/send-pr.html

This will be sent to the maintainer of the port, and provides a
consistent way for everyone to search for and track issues/requests. 

If you place, at the  beginning of your synopsis:
net-im/ejabberd
the PR is sent, directly to the maintainer.  And the category is "ports"

If there are security vulnerabilities that have been discovered but not
disclosed via portaudit, which isn't the case here, you should notify
ports-secur...@freebsd.org.  They're very responsive.
Dewayne.

I know about these updates, and have tried updating port to 13.x release, but
not much success.

ejabberd project has switched to using git clones of dependencies, instead of
bundling them with the snapshot, which was not at all port friendly. As a
workaround, I packaged latest snapshot of all dependencies, but rebar stuff
needs to be workaround-ed, which I could not figure out last time I looked at
it. I'll look at it again in upcoming days.

I think other operating systems are also stuck at 2.1.13 for the same reason.

If you need to use the latest version, then I propose building/installing
yourself using their instructions.

Anyways, if you've already prepared an update for the port, then I'll be happy
to look at it.

Re: FreeBSD Port: ejabberd-2.1.13 - Release updates available; 14.05, 13.12 & 13.10

[Ashish SHUKLA]

Hi,

Thanks to the PR ports/189812[1] filed by Joseph Benden, I'm able to update
the net-im/ejabberd to 14.05. Following is the link to the diff, if you like
to try it:

url:http://people.freebsd.org/~ashish/diffs/ejabberd-14.05.diff
sha256: ce4ed8c47734348bc4499af3d11ae2dbc53fc50f4b2041dc557dae793706b188

There is one issue though. As, I don't use PAM option, I could not check PAM
support. This port does not install 'epam' binary anymore (although it's
compiled). So, if you (or someone) are using PAM support already, and can test
if it works without that binary that'll be great.

If you encounter any other issues, please feel free to report those to me. I
plan to commit this by the end of this week.

Thanks for your work,

I use the pam module, and the server would not start without epam:
2014-05-19 21:03:50.464 [error] <0.408.0> Can't open file
"@rootdir@/lib/erlang/lib/ejabberd-14.05/priv/bin/epam": enoent

Copying the epam binary from WRKDIR, setted to root:ejabberd rwsr-x--- to 
/usr/local/lib/erlang/lib/ejabberd-14.05/priv/bin/epam is not enough, it 
seems...

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

Could you please try this diff[1] which fixes this '@rootdir@' thing ?

After installing the port, you need to manually copy the 'epam' binary to its
place as you were doing before.

Let me know how it goes for you

Thanks, it is working. Like you said, I had to copy epam manualy, set it to 
root:ejabberd 750 with setuid bit. Very well done!

Thanks for checking. Hopefully we'll have a fix (to avoid manual copying) in
final port.
