I should probably have pointed out that this problem persisted across
multiple days.  I ignored it the first time that portupgrade failed,
pursued it when it persisted.  I didn't keep notes (personal box) so
don't know which day it first failed.

Is there any harm to using the http variant too?  Perhaps after the ftp
schema item?

devel/pylint location fix

2007-04-02 Thread Phil Pennock
[ ports@ listed as current MAINTAINER ]

Port devel/pylint doesn't seem to be well distributed on the
ftp.CC.freebsd.org mirrors and can't be retrieved from the currently
defined master; ftp://ftp.logilab.org/pub/pylint/pylint-0.13.1.tar.gz
results in an FTP error after anonymous authentication:
  421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection.

Change the protocol to http: but leave the host and local path alone and
the file is retrievable, passing checksum tests..  Given that http is
generally lighter weight, should MASTER_SITES include the http: variant
before the ftp one?

Regards,
-Phil

devel/rlwrap PTY problems

2006-07-27 Thread Phil Pennock
Hi,

rlwrap is failing "rlwrap: error: Could not open master pty:
Input/output error" on FreeBSD 6.1.

Upon investigation, I see that the configure script is hardcoding the
list of PTYs to scan based upon those found in /dev/ at time of
compilation.  This obviously does not work well with devfs.

Since FreeBSD now has openpty(), the fix is to NOT put
"ptyttylib_cv_ptys=BSD" into CONFIGURE_ENV.  I can confirm that an
rlwrap() built in this way appears to work for FreeBSD 6.1/amd64 (I can
"rlwrap tclsh8.4" and get history and the like; no extensive tests have
been performed).

I don't know which release made devfs the standard, but I suspect that
you're looking at another ".if ${OSVERSION}" check.  :^(

Thanks,
