Hmmm... normally you should be controlling build options by setting
WITH_FOO style flags in /etc/src.conf, although I can't see anything
obviously relevant in src.conf(5).

Did you raise a PR about this?  Requesting a means to have a loader that
only works via a serial console sounds like something that should be
supported.

Cheers,

Matthew

Yeah -- you need to update or install the package that provides
libaprutil-1.so.  If you're using pkg(8) against a package repository
rather than compiling your own, you could use:

pkg check -d subversion-1.8.3

For portmaster dependencies should be auto-updated when you run

portmaster devel/subversion

It might be useful to run

portmaster --force-config -f devel/subversion

so you can recheck all the options settings of dependencies, but this
will rebuild portmaster and everything it depends on.

Cheers,

Matthew

Disappointing dependency introduced in 9.1 (from 8-STABLE)

2013-09-11 Thread Michael Sierchio 
Because I build a lot of embedded devices with serial consoles, I was in
the habit of hacking /boot/loader by commenting out a line in a Makefile
that enables terminal emulation

/sys/boot/i386/libi386/Makefile:

#CFLAGS+= -DTERM_EMU

and then in /sys/boot doing a make clean && make

unfortunately, with 9.X, this breaks the compile.  It seems a dependency
was introduced which requires the videoconsole code.  I find this extremely
irritating.  Of course, there's nothing to stop me (at the moment) from
compiling loader under 8-STABLE and installing it on 9.1 machines, but...

Is there a better way now to stop the cursor from scribbling illegibly
across the screen?

PF_xxx or AF_xxx? comment of dom_family in sys/uipc_domain.h

2013-09-11 Thread Masato Asou 
Hi,

I have a little question.
In manual SOCKET(2) describes as follows.

 The domain argument specifies a communications domain within which commu-
 nication will take place; this selects the protocol family which should
 be used.  These families are defined in the include file .
 The currently understood formats are:

   PF_LOCALHost-internal protocols, formerly called PF_UNIX,
   PF_UNIX Host-internal protocols, deprecated, use PF_LOCAL,
   PF_INET Internet version 4 protocols,

However, comment of dom_fammily in /usr/src/sys/sys/uipc_domain.h as
follows.

struct domain {
int dom_family; /* AF_xxx */

The dom_fammily was used in function /usr/src/sys/kern/uipc_domain.c:
pffindtype() as follows.

struct protosw *
pffindtype(int family, int type)
{
struct domain *dp;
struct protosw *pr;

for (dp = domains; dp; dp = dp->dom_next)
if (dp->dom_family == family)
goto found;

The argument domain of SOCKET(2) passed to the argument family of
function pffindtype().  If SOCKET(2) is correct, described as
/* PF_xxx */ instead /* AF_xxx */ in sys/uipc_domain.h?

I know PF_xxx is equals AF_xxx defined in sys/socket.h.
I don't believe this is serious mistake. 
Regards,

The MBR-specific information in that section and the rest of the

proposed this:

Dear folks,

I am having problems with subject line.  I have to fix error by
reinstalling subversion, but it keeps coming back with this error
message.

Shared object "libaprutil-1.so.4" not found, required by "libserf-1.so.0"

I configured subversion to use serf because I am used to freebsd_texlive_*

I run to update and I get

machine has not been updated since 05/27, I read entry:

20130619:
  AFFECTS: users of devel/subversion
  AUTHOR: oha...@freebsd.org

  devel/subversion has been upgraded from 1.7.10 to 1.8.0

  If you want to upgrade, and use http/https access to repositories,
  please check, that the SERF option is enabled, as NEON support
  is gone. Also, mod_dontdothat and svnauthz_validate are
  now enabled with one option TOOLS, among other new tools
  and SVNMUCC is enabled always.

  subversion-1.7.x is available as devel/subversion17

  To stay on subversion-1.7.x set in /etc/make.conf
  WITH_SUBVERSION_VER=17
  and use the following command

  # pkg set -o devel/subversion:devel/subversion17

  or

  # portmaster -o devel/subversion17 devel/subversion


I configured subversion to use serf option and tried it.

Thanks for advice/ideas & suggestions.

Best Regards,

The kernel has its own crash handling and will initiate the
writing of the proper image automatically. It will be stored
on the partition designated by the /etc/rc.conf setting
dumpdev="", usually a swap partition, and at next
boot time that image will be written to a file in /var/crash,
if nothing else has been defined with dumpdir=""
(same file; see "man rc.conf" and /etc/defaults/rc.conf for
details). If you want to coredump to a USB device, you need
to configure this accordingly.

You can find more information about this topic in the following
manual pages: "man 2 sigaction", "man 8 crash", and "man 5 core".
