FreeBSD Port: py27-dbutils-1.1
Not sure who this is going to, so I'll say "To whom it may concern". I'm trying to "make package" for py-dbutils, and it's failing. It's trying to tar up various files in "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/DBUtils", which doesn't exist because the make install deleted them when it build the egg file. Anyone have any ideas on how to make this work? --Brian -- _-=-_-=-_-=-_-=-_-=-_-=-_-=-_-=-_-=-_-=-_-=-_ Brian McCann "I don't have to take this abuse from you -- I've got hundreds of people waiting to abuse me." -- Bill Murray, "Ghostbusters" ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

It depends. I can not comment upon the quality of the ext2fs part of FreeBSD, but the linuxulator itself will not destroy anything. Theoretically it can be the case that a sloppy programmed (linux-)tool may destroy some data if it wants to use something which does not work, but in this case I would say it is the fault of the tool to not check for errors... Or let's say it differently: if it destroys something, you should have played Lotto instead of doing whatever you did... ;-) Bye, Alexander. -- http://www.Leidinger.netAlexander @ Leidinger.net: PGP ID = B0063FE7 http://www.FreeBSD.org netchild @ FreeBSD.org : PGP ID = 72077137 ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

It seems like a better (but more complicatd) solution would use "getent
passwd ${USER}" to check for existing users. (You need to check
explicitly rather than treating the output without /etc/passwd because
some nss modules don't enumerate to avoid listing the thousands or tens
of thousands of users in a corporate AD or LDAP installation).

Oops, there's the obvious problem :) Thanks.
Hm, getent will need some sed magic to change to master.passwd style,
or we could change UIDs to use passwd style

Creation of users in ports
Hi all, I'm at a loss as to how to restore functionality for creating (or using) customised users in ports. For example, using the old method (pkg-install scripts) many ports allowed the user to change the username used for the port. With the new functionality, if the username isn't found in /usr/ports/UIDs it's rejected, and the port can't use it. Can anyone explain to me why it would be a bad idea to include the system's passwd and group files in the search? This would allow the ports system to accept any user that already exists, as well as creating the correct code in the plist. For example; someone wants to install postgresql as username Fred, so s/he sets PG_USER=Fred in /etc/make.conf. Currently this causes an error on build, because Fred is not in /usr/ports/UIDs. Were /etc/master.passwd and /etc/group searched too, that wouldn't cause a problem. Any obvious oversights?

I just wanted to let you guys know that I was able to build this port with no problem on 9.0 RC2 AMD64, after I either changed the download location and some of the names (tar.gz, to tar.bz2 in some cases), or fetched the source files manually. After building, I even used a script I created for the prior version to batch convert about 100 avi to a format usable on stand alone DVD players with no issues. -- Rod ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
enigmail-thunderbird: problem with importing pgp key from keyserver
Description of the problem: I get a signed email and I don't have a key to verify the signature (I see a yellow line that says "Unverified signature; click on 'Details' button for more information "). I press Details and select Import Public Key. The import window that pops ups then stays up forever, its "no progress" bar rolls on forever and, the most troublesome, thunderbird starts consuming 100% of a CPU. I can press Cancel button and the dialog is closed, but CPU consumption goes on. Also, it seems that after that the thunderbird timers stop working properly - e.g. I have an option of marking an email as read after (pre-)viewing it for 1 second, that gets broken, the emails are never automatically marked as read. What's also interesting is that the key apparently gets imported despite all of the above. If I reopen the same email I see a green line saying "UNTRUSTED Good signature from ...".

Re: Linux compatibility with more than one Linux installed?
Too much to quote here without making a mess, and I want to get to bed, but thanks for all the ideas. I noticed the advice with emulators/wine that running programs on an actual MS-Windows partition can make a mess of said partition; wonder if there would be such a hazard with Linux instead of MS-Windows. But it was safe to run programs on a DOS partition when I had OS/2 Warp 3 and 4, which could run many DOS programs even without using an actual DOS installed. OS/2 Warp 4 could also boot a specific version of DOS, but there were still limitations on what DOS programs could do when running under OS/2.
