I have been stupid. I'v braged about FreeBSD and the software being almost
up do date. That was my mistake!
I volunteered to port a simple application and submitted it the 14 of
January. And its still opened and unassigned. On further investigation I see
that its not only my application.
What
I have noted that there aren't many (if any) copyrights in FreeBSD manpages.
I appreciate that. But GDlib has the following text in its license
"Permission has been granted to copy, distribute and modify gd in
any context without fee, including a commercial application,
provided that this n
I'm just wondering how log it usually takes from you submits a new port, to
something happens?
When should I start to worry that I have been forgotten? (About 2 weeks now)
What do I do to get attention?

It's a shame that I can't use a script placed in /files to change rc.conf
during install/
deinstall. I really liked that. But i guess I will settle with a dull
pkg-message at the
end, like the rest of you...
Well, no, it's not a shame. The last thing we want to do as a community
is enab
- Respect the CC, CFLAGS and LOCALBASE. See in post-patch.
- Add kissdx.in in 'files' directory.
- Remove that add_to_conf stuff in Makefile, use pkg-message.
Thank you Mezz, for going through my makefiles and making it conform to the
principals of
the ports system. That was a very big help
$(MKDIR) $(FILESDIR)
$(CP) ${WRKSRC}/kissdx.in ${FILESDIR}
I don't really like to create FILESDIR and move from WRKSRC to
FILESDIR. The WRKDIR/WRKSRC are the place where you work anything
inside. However, move from WRKSRC to FILESDIR might create problem in
future so avoid that.
When I lev
Thanks a lot!
I have as you sugested, but have a problems:
$(MKDIR) $(FILESDIR)
$(CP) ${WRKSRC}/kissdx.in ${FILESDIR}

Many ports need this to work, sadly it is often not mentioned at the
end of make install or the pkg_add. I would love for it to say
something like this. We need to make this easier to use when possible.
In order for the install of "port name" to work, it should be activated
via /etc.rc.conf,
You should not make changes to /etc/rc.conf at all from a port. Please
remove that before submitting.
Thanks,
Doug
Thanks I will, but how should it be done? I must be there for it to work?
