 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?

Does it work if you do make; make package directly?
(instead of make; make install; make package?

 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... ;-)

So I guess it's worth a try after I get my Linux built and installed, am busy 
now with FreeBSD 9.0-RC3.

Also, I want to see if I can cross-build NetBSD from FreeBSD, partly as a dress 
rehearsal for building Linux, partly to see how and if cdrtools/cdrecord works 
in NetBSD compared to FreeBSD.

So it looks like the linuxulator does not have the hazards associated with 
MS-Windows and wine.

audio/squeezeboxserver request

2011-12-08 Thread Daniel Duerr
Hi,

I have a small request for whoever maintains the audio/squeezeboxserver port... 
 For users like myself who would like to use an existing instance of MySQL 
instead of the bundled one, we have to add the 'mysql' dependency to the 
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/ startup script in order for squeezeboxserver to load 
*after* mysql-server.  This customization is then lost every time we upgrade 
the port.  Is there a way that this can be made as a 'make config' option that 
one can set?

Thanks,
Daniel

That's bro...@freebsd.org:

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/audio/squeezeboxserver/Makefile

The usual way to make requests is to go ahead and file a PR; if the
Synopsis contains category/portname, the maintainer will automatically
be notified.
