I'm porting a simple util requiring aio(4). My plan is
to install a wrapper script which includes rc.subr(8)

If anyone has a better idea, please tell me.


Just tell at port/package install time the requirement. Every linux
program needs the linux module or the corresponding kernel option. If
the code is not available at runtime, the user will get an error. Unix
is not for dumb people, so I don't think we need this low-level
hand-holding.


That's one opinion. But Unix is also not about dumb
developers. As a ports developer, my job is to make
it easier for users to run third-party software and
that's just what I'm trying to do to the extent of
my skills and motivation...


I agree, but if you are interested in a general solution, how do you  
want to apply it to the linux stuff?


I see the problem, that if you try to do a generic solution, users  
want it for the linux stuff too. There's not problem with such a  
request from a high level point of view, but technically I don't see  
how this can be done in a reasonable way for the linux stuff. For  
acroread or skype, we could do it very easy (there are already FreeBSD  
shell scripts as wrappers, so we could check with kldstat -v | grep  
linux), but users would expect something like this in a lot more  
places then. In some places you just can not do it, because those  
programs are also used by linux stuff internally or can be used in a  
chroot. It's like using a program which issues some ioctls which are  
valid for SCSI devices, but not ata devices (or vice versa). Or if you  
want to use SYSVSHM and it isn't available in the kernel. The user  
will get an error message because he did the wrong thing.


I think it is more POLA to keep it this way, instead of doing it for  
some stuff but not all stuff. If we are able to do it for all stuff,  
great, go ahead, but in this case I don't think it is a good idea.


You can bail out in the port/package if aio is not available. You can  
parse the output of kldstat -v and determine if aio is compiled into  
the kernel or loaded as a module. If it is loaded as a module, check  
if it is enabled in loader.conf. If this is not the case, fail to  
install/build with a suitable message. This is (more or less) how we  
do it in the linux ports.


Bye,
Alexander.

Current unassigned ports problem reports

2007-01-29 Thread FreeBSD bugmaster
Current FreeBSD problem reports
The following is a listing of current problems submitted by FreeBSD users. 
These represent problem reports covering all versions including experimental 
development code and obsolete releases. 
Bugs can be in one of several states:

o - open
A problem report has been submitted, no sanity checking performed.

a - analyzed
The problem is understood and a solution is being sought.

f - feedback
Further work requires additional information from the
 originator or the community - possibly confirmation of
 the effectiveness of a proposed solution.

p - patched
A patch has been committed, but some issues (MFC and / or
 confirmation from originator) are still open.

r - repocopy
The resolution of the problem report is dependent on
 a repocopy operation within the CVS repository which
 is awaiting completion.

s - suspended
The problem is not being worked on, due to lack of information
 or resources.  This is a prime candidate
 for somebody who is looking for a project to do.
 If the problem cannot be solved at all,
 it will be closed, rather than suspended.

c - closed
A problem report is closed when any changes have been integrated,
 documented, and tested -- or when fixing the problem is abandoned.

grep /etc/rc.d for required_modules. Should we remove

Any stuff in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ should be disabled by default and  
enabled only if requested by the user. But requiring the user to put  
foo_enable=yes into rc.conf is not different from requiring the user  
to add bar_load=yes into loader.conf. So it doesn't make sense for me.  
Specially if you think about a fileserver which provides a customized  
/compat/linux to several machines but doesn't run any linux program  
itself (and thus doesn't need the linux stuff in the kernel).

In response to George Hartzell [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
 
 I'm curious how other freebsd postgresql users handle databases with
 passwords and running the 502.pgsql periodic script.
 
 I've solved the problem by creating a ~pgsql/.pgpass file with the
 pgsql users password.
 
 Is there a better way?

Depends.  Do you allow untrusted users to log in to that machine?  If
so, then you've probably got the best approach.  Make sure that .pgpass
file is chmoded 600

FreeBSD Port: plone-2.5.1_1: Help: not working on FreeBSD 6

2007-01-29 Thread PEC

Filippo,

none of the source links can be accessed from a Unix server for this 
port. I have downloaded directly plone 2.5.2.1 from plone.org, but it 
isn't working. There are some changes necessary. Can you help me ?


This is what my event log says:
2007-01-29T20:22:09 WARNING Init Class 
Products.ATContentTypes.content.base.ATCTFolderMixin has a security 
declaration for nonexistent method 'manage_copyObjects'

--
2007-01-29T20:22:10 ERROR Zope Could not import Products.ATContentTypes

Further, it tells me the Marshall handlers cannot find libxml (on my 
FreeBSD v6 they are called libxmal2-2.6).


Do you have any reference to these issues ?

I have already tried the irc #plone but no one has experience with 
plone on FreeBSD


Kindly advise if you could help

Regards

Luis

FreeBSD Port: squirrelmail-1.4.9a - missing strings.php?

2007-01-29 Thread Mark
Hi,
I've just upgraded my squirrelmail port to 1.4.9a, and I believe there's a
problem with the upgrade.  Perhaps it was caused by me not upgrading for
several months  I missed a release.

In any event, it's no longer possible to log in to my Squirrelmail; the
login page gives the error
PHP Fatal error:  Call to undefined function sqm_baseuri() in
/usr/local/www/squirrelmail/src/login.php on line 44

I believe this is because the sqm devel team moved this function into
include/strings.php in 1.4.6, and the port does not update the strings.php
file.  My version of strings.php is from the 1.4.5 release, and there
doesn't seem to be a strings.php in
/usr/ports/mail/squirrelmail/work/squirrelmail-1.4.9a/include/

Installing the 1.4.9a strings.php in the appropriate place seems to solve
the problem.

Hope this is useful, PLMK if there is something different I should have
done, and thanks for maintaining the port.

Yours,
Mark

 Hello
 
 I'm not sure if this is the source of your problem, but do 
 you also have 
 mail/squirrelmail-compatibility-plugin installed?
 If so, you have to reinstall it after you upgrade 
 squirrelmail because 
 the compatibility plugin patches strings.php of the original 
 squirrelmail installation. If you install another version of 
 squirrelmail over it, it will override the patched files.
 
 Hope that helps,

 Yes, I know the principle of upstream sources and I perfectly agree
 with you.  However, I think the patch have already been brought to
^
Is it possible they have not looked at it yet?


 attention of [EMAIL PROTECTED]  The problem is that this patch
 breaks some features, as described in the Bugs section of its
 webpage [1] and have this not been adopted.

Would you have a PR number or something that I can follow up on at gnu.org? 
Even better would be if someone could point me to any correspondence about 
this on the screen-devel mailing list archvies.

The Bugs section concerns me.

 
 I fully understand you don't want to break screen.  However I am
 a user of this patch and I don't care about the broken features,
 and so does a friend of mine.  I supposes there might be other users
 in this case, so I've made the patch.

I'm sure others might be concerned about breakage even if you are not.

 
 I would understand if you didn't want to commit this.  However if
 you agree to commit it with a bug warning message, I can correct
 my patch to add this message in which I will detail the broken
 features.
 
 Please, let me know about your decision.

I would rather not commit anything that would break the software, even if 
the user has the option of knowingly and intentionally breaking it through 
an option I provide. I don't know if the screen developers at gnu.org are 
unwilling to incorporate the patch in the base software. I'm not enamoured 
with the proposed patch.

Unless the Bugs can be addressed I don't think it should be committed.

FreeBSD ports that you maintain which are currently marked broken

2007-01-29 Thread linimon
Dear FreeBSD port maintainer:

As part of an ongoing effort to reduce the number of problems in the
FreeBSD ports system, we are attempting to notify maintainers of
ports that are marked as broken in their Makefiles.  In many cases
these ports are failing to compile on some subset of the FreeBSD
build environments.  The most common problem is that recent versions
of -CURRENT include gcc3.4, which is much stricter about such things
as function declarations, literal strings constants that continue
over several physical lines, and forcing the deprecation of antique
header files such as varargs.h (we should now be using stdargs.h).

The next most common problem is that compiles succeed on the i386
architecture (e.g. the common Intel PC), but fail on one or more of
the other architectures due to assumptions about things such as size
of various types, byte-alignment issues, and so forth.

In occasional cases we see that the same port may have different
errors in different build environments.  The script that runs on the
build cluster uses heuristics to try to 'guess' the error type to
help you isolate problems, but it is only a rough guide.

If you need help in one or more build environments that you do not
have access to, please ask for help on the freebsd-ports mailing
list.

One more note: on occasion, there are transient build errors seen
on the build farm.  Unfortunately, there is not yet any way for this
algorithm to tell the difference (humans are much, much better at
this kind of thing.)

The errors are listed below.  In the case where the same
problem exists on more than one build environment, the URL points
to the latest errorlog for that type.  (By 'build environment'
here we mean 'combination of 4.x/5.x/6.x with target architecture'.)

(Note: the dates are included to help you to gauge whether or not
the error still applies to the latest version.  The program
that generates this report is not yet able to determine this
automatically.)

FreeBSD ports that you maintain which are currently marked forbidden

2007-01-29 Thread linimon
Dear FreeBSD port maintainer:

As part of an ongoing effort to reduce the number of problems in the
FreeBSD ports system, we are attempting to notify maintainers of
ports that are marked as forbidden in their Makefiles.  Often,
these ports are so marked due to security concerns, such as known
exploits.

An overview of the port, including errors seen on the build farm, is
included below.

portname:   irc/sircd
forbidden because:  Multiple vulnerabilities.
build errors:   none.
overview:   
http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=ircportname=sircd


portname:   misc/compat3x
forbidden because:  FreeBSD-SA-03:05.xdr, FreeBSD-SA-03:08.realpath  - not
fixed / no lib available
build errors:   none.
overview:   
http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=miscportname=compat3x


If this problem is one that you are already aware of, please accept
our apologies and ignore this message.  On the other hand, if you no
longer wish to maintain this port (or ports), please reply with a
message stating that, and accept our thanks for your efforts in the
past.

Thanks for your efforts to help improve FreeBSD.

FreeBSD ports which are currently scheduled for deletion

2007-01-29 Thread linimon
As part of an ongoing effort to reduce the number of problems in
the FreeBSD ports system, we periodically schedule removal of ports
that have been judged to have outlived their usefulness.  Often,
this is due to a better alternative having become available and/or
the cessation of development on the existing port.  In some cases,
ports are marked for removal because they fail to build and install
correctly from their sources, or otherwise fail in operation.

The ports, and the reason and date that they have been scheduled
for removal, are listed below.  If no one has stepped forward before
that time to propose a way to fix the problems, the ports will be
deleted.

The goal of this posting is to make this process much more visible
to the wider FreeBSD community.
