Re: Plea for base system trim

2003-03-05 Thread Adrian Steinmann

I use this command in my build script to force apache13+modssl to use
the openssl in base.

# Use base openssl (OpenSSL 0.9.7a as of Feb 19 2003)
cd /usr/ports/www/apache13-modssl
cp Makefile Makefile-
sed -ie 's/^\.include.*Makefile\.ssl.*$/OPENSSLBASE=\/usr/' Makefile- >Makefile

   You are right to hate having two versions installed --- it is
   pointless in most cases.  Please complain to the apache+mod_ssl and
   openssl port maintainers.  It sounds to me like they are doing
   something very wrong.

make buildworld out-of-the-box 4.0RC broken?

2000-02-12 Thread Adrian Steinmann


I installed "All" off the 4.0-2208-CURRENT/install-i386.iso, i.e.
including src, and went and tried "cd /usr/src; make buildworld"

Within seconds I see:

/usr/src/tools/install.sh: Can't open /usr/src/tools/install.sh: No such file or 
directory
*** Error code 2

Doesn't the install src on the CD install all the src?

openssh install not straight forward: openssl-0.9.4 purported to bein base, but isn't?

2000-02-12 Thread Adrian Steinmann


I had to 'make install' in the FreeBSD 3.4 version of
/usr/ports/security/openssl to get openssl-0.9.4 installed on 4.0RC
since it purports to be in the base system:
cd /usr/ports/security/openssl
make -V FORBIDDEN
"OpenSSL is already in the base system"
yet it doesn't appear to be.

This causes openssh to fail likewise because it depends on openssl
(crypto.1 shared library), the patch below removes that dependancy
so
cd /usr/ports/security/openssh
make USA_RESIDENT=NO
works after the 3.4 openssl port is installed.

The real fix would be to really put openssl into the base system.
