Possibly unbuildable ports reminder
Dear porters, This is just a reminder to please periodically check the list of unbuildable ports at http://pointyhat.freebsd.org/errorlogs/ . A list by MAINTAINER is http://people.freebsd.org/~fenner/errorlogs/ so you can easily check the status of ports that you maintain. In addition, the list of ports with no MAINTAINER with build problems is http://people.freebsd.org/~fenner/errorlogs/po...@freebsd.org.html Since no one is responsible for these ports, the problem won't get fixed unless someone on this list takes the initiative. Thanks for your help!

Re: firefox-3.5.7,1 crashing

There are some obscurities I am struggling with:
1. The port needs libraries gtk2 and libxml2.
Is it ok how the port ensures they are installed?
Just use USE_GNOME= gtk20 libxml2, rather than the LIB_DEPENDS line.
2. A second make target has to create 'ggobirc'.
Is it build ok this way?
Yes, but it is easier just to set ALL_TARGET= all ggobirc, rather than
defining a custom post-build target.
3. ggobi authors suggest to create /etc/xdg/ggobi/ for resource file.
A better place would be /usr/local/etc/xdg/ggobi/, I think.
What do you think? How could this be coded in the port?
Don't write into /etc, except in special cases. Use ${PREFIX}/etc
instead. Also, do something like:
post-install:
${MKDIR} /etc/xdg/ggobi
${INSTALL_DATA} ${WRKSRC}/ggobirc ${PREFIX}/etc/xdg/ggobi/ggobirc.sample
In the pkg-plist, add ggobirc only if it does not already exist, and
only remove ggobirc if it is identical to ggobirc.sample, to protect
user-customized configuration files during re-installation:
@unexec if cmp -s %D/etc/xdg/ggobi/ggobirc.sample
%D/etc/xdg/ggobi/ggobirc; then rm -f %D/etc/dillo/dillorc; fi
etc/xdg/ggobi/ggobirc.sample
@exec if [ ! -f %B/ggobirc ]; then cp -p %D/%F %B/ggobirc; fi
Here %D, %B, and %F are as defined in pkg_create(1).
5. When deinstalling, should we try to remove dirs share/applications
and etc/xdg? (Mostly they are used by other ports, too)
Use, as many other ports do,
@dirrmtry share/applications
@dirrmtry etc/xdg

Re: firefox-3.5.7,1 crashing
I installed the add-ons you mentioned but all they did was prevent me from using the flash plugin (although it didn't crash anymore). Flash is supposed to be enabled, it says so in its plugins page but none of the flash sites work, some cause Firefox to crash. I am using Opera now instead. The FreeBSD version of Opera doesn't crash but it also doesn't allow me to use flash (even though it says the plugin is installed). The linux version of Opera allows me to use flash with no crashing :-) Peter Badenhorst On 28 January 2010 19:03, Gary Jennejohn gary.jennej...@freenet.de wrote: On Thu, 28 Jan 2010 16:27:07 +0200 Peter Badenhorst peter.badenho...@gmail.com wrote: I compiled and installed 3.6 in www/firefox3-devel and it crashed again.

Re: Need help with new port math/ggobi
1. The port needs libraries gtk2 and libxml2. Is it ok how the port ensures they are installed? Ports has a predefined method of doing this: USE_GNOME= gtk20 libxml2 3. ggobi authors suggest to create /etc/xdg/ggobi/ for resource file. A better place would be /usr/local/etc/xdg/ggobi/, I think. What do you think? How could this be coded in the port? Most programs I've seen are PREFIX safe. It is almost always better to use $PREFIX. The only exception I've ever seen is something like perl which many broken programs use. 5. When deinstalling, should we try to remove dirs share/applications and etc/xdg?

patch upgrade for port committers?
When an update to a port is committed, it is likely to contain (a) lines like Only in : or (b) patches that are created against empty files using the -N option for diff. Cannot patch honor these cases? As a port maintainer, I have been caught quite a few times by committers not adding or removing files from the files directory in a port.

With latest changes it seems ok to me. Could you please take another
look at the attached files (perhaps on another architecture or version)?

GGobi is an open source visualization program for exploring high-dimensional
data. It provides highly dynamic and interactive graphics such as tours, as
well as familiar graphics such as the scatterplot, barchart and parallel
coordinates plots. Plots are interactive and linked with brushing and
identification.
