libgphoto2-2.4.0 - PTPBUG_DELETE_SENDS_EVENT caused hang for Canon IXUS 55 and S3 IS
Recently I noticed that attempting to delete gphotos from my Canon IXUS 55 in gtkam would just hang. After some experimentation, combined with looking at older sources (which did not hang), I tracked the behaviour down to the PTPBUG_DELETE_SENDS_EVENT flags in libgphoto2. I purchased a Canon S3 IS for my parents, and briefly trialled this - noting the same behaviour. In both cases removing the PTPBUG_DELETE_SENDS_EVENT flag in camlibs/ptp2/library.c appeared to fix the issue. I've attached a patch for this. I guess this might be worth a pr, but I wondered if other Canon owners were seeing this? As the subject says, libgphoto2-2.4.0 is the version I'm patching.

The question at hand is whether or not it's possible or desirable to create the possibility of doing it for the user at port install time. If what you're trying to say here is that you don't find such a facility interesting or necessary, thanks for stating your opinion. I said, that this can be done from the Makefile as well, if that OPTIONS of yours is enabled. Seeing as I was gone (really way gone) from the FreeBSD community for a while, but I used to be very closely associated, I felt that it was possible that because I had seen both environments (several other unixes, like Solaris and different Linuxes) and FreeBSD, that before I stopped seeing things as novel, I might be able to point out some differences that might be useful. I've seen a lot of knee-jerk responses to anything new; this group isn't the largest, but they ARE the loudest. I'm not sayiing I'm right, but I AM saying that it's worth some serious consideration. I'm suggesting a number of ideas that just might be worth adding. In this case, what I meant was to change the rules, the commonly accepted methods, for ports to install daemons, to that they directly patch an rc file, not to make some change in bsd.port.mk, but it really wouldn't be all that hard to code up some macro to do this, so perhaps the idea is sound. I'm currenlty going to present something regarding adding a ports screening method, but that's a much harder thing to code. This macro handler, that would be comparatively easy. I see that we need to decide whether to do it or not, but that decision can wait until I have a macro, a diff to gbsd.port.mk coded up, so we don't discuss this twice (you can kill the idea very well then, you['re not going to lose the opportunity). The only things I see to decide NOW are: 1) name of this proposed macro. I like INSTALL_DAEMON_NAME, do you? 2) the name of the file to carry the resulting definitions. It could be /etc/rc.local, I saw that suggested, but I would like to say why I like $(PREFIX)/local/etc/rc.d. I would rather that the dividing line between any and all system stuff and ports stuff be very very firm and clear. I detest the Linux habit of folding /usr/bin and /usr/local/bin together, and I would really want to maintain FreeBSD's current stance on this. Next couple days, I will show you folks a diff about this. We can make the changes on the two items above rather easily then, but you might want to post your feelings now on it. Save the argument over the entire notion until I get a diff ready. I mean, that's the FreeBSD way, that no one gets any sort of prior blanket approval, and I wouldn't change it for the world.

[HEADSUP] new package status/statistics uploaded to portsmon.freebsd.org
I've been generating these locally but not uploading them. Now, they are up-to-date. If you are interested in what the state of the packages is on the various architectures, these pages will be of interest. Of particular interest to ports committers is the new page http://portsmon.freebsd.org/checkpackages.html. This shows the status of the packages that go on disc1 and disc2 of the release CDs. When you click on the table header for each buildenv, it will take you to a page that shows the complete package status for that buildenv, including whether packages are marked IGNORE or BROKEN, or simply have errors. For each package in the checkpackages page, you'll need to search the most right-hand column of the status page to find out what package is blocking it, if it's a dependency of something else. The overall comparison amongst buildenvs is at the following: http://portsmon.freebsd.org/chartsandgraphs/package_comparison.html. That's a good start here. Everything else is shown on http://portsmon.freebsd.org/chartsandgraphs/index.html. Note that all this data is as of the last port building run (not whichever one is currently in progress), so certain errors may already have been fixed. The information is all there -- but you may have to do a little bit of detective work with e.g. the individual port pages and the cvsweb links. For instance, amd64-7, i386-7, and sparc64-6 have been unblocked by the most recent commits. However, sparc64-7 is still blocked on x11/gnome2 via the build error in devel/pwlib, which appears to have happened when the threading libraries were switched.

It's no problem at all to show ludicrous examples of overly agressive dependency lists taking the choices of what ports to add out of the hands of the users. As soon as I get the keyword list written (asnd who knows, maybe accepted?), then I intend to push what I see as the second part of this, a tool that looks at what ports are installed, the state of your keyword lists, and a user's personal interests, and make suggestions of what ports a user might find interesting. Sort of a ports-advertiser. This would take the place of overly agressive dependency lists, but not by removing the user from the process, but instead by making that user's selection job easier to make. Such a tool could have a link to a ports installer, even, so as to further ease things, but not to remove the choice from the user, as it's moving towards today. ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

They likely leave TCP port 587 open to the world (but there's no guarantee of that either). Every ISP I've seen who does the above outbound filtering does so while providing their own SMTP server available for customer use -- and provides a firewall hole for communicating with their own SMTP servers on TCP port 25.
