graphics/linux-dri on 4.11

2006-07-07 Thread Bill Milford
I am trying to build graphics/linux_dri on 4.11. I get errors because the tar in 4.11 does not support .bz2 distfiles. Any suggestions on how to get port to extract the .bz2 distfiles correctly? Bill ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list

On 6.1, the bsdtar will figure out that a file is .gz or .bz2 and still extract, however, the GNU tar does not. Conclusion, GNU tar sucks :) It seems that this port has distfile in two different formats and the the port structure cannot handle it. Definitely. USE_BZIP2 (see docs in

The policy is that we no longer require committers to make sure things work on 4.X before they commit. To the extent that people send patches, things will keep running. Well this is a kind of internal-to-ports thing that needs a small change, not really a fix linux-dri thing. It could
