build a port that depends on Java

2009-12-08 Thread Anh K. Huỳnh
Hi, I am going to build a port (named `vue`, http://vue.tufts.edu/) that depends on Java libraries but I don't know how to set the dependencies (the RUN_DEPENDS variable in `Makefile`). I know some kinds of Java and don't know which one should be used. At least, Vue works well with OpenJDK6.

Hi, and so on. So it's safe to say just merging the trees like this isn't the way to go. What is the proper process to finish a bsd image after installworld and installkernel is done? Not sure what you are trying to do, but usually you better follow the instructions from /usr/src/UPDATING.

Hi, Another problem is that the original file for port is in `.zip` format. As far as I know `.zip` isn't natively supported in FreeBSD. Should I convert that file to `.tar.gz` format and redistribute in my site (instead of using file from VUE master site?). Though using

By the way, I beleive a good part of /etc is installed/reinstalled by a make installworld and/or mergemaster. I should have clarified my scenario better. I am building a BSD image from scratch, as part of an automated process. I am not updating an existing system. I had been doing this by

Ah, you _probably_ want to do 'make release' -- I have no experience with this however to be much more help if that _is_ what you need. Didn't know about that one. I'll have to check it out--thanks. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list

b) go with gpt / gpart, which is okay if FreeBSD will be the only OS that accesses the disk(s) in question, as I may assume by your statements. That's correct; these will be strictly BSD accessible drives. FWIW: I've used GUID drives with Mac OS X, Windows XP, Ubuntu and PC-BSD all resident

Override overrides of X resources by various programs

Dear list, more and more annoying things are happening. Programs modify X defaults in an unacceptable manner. For example, the Acrobat Reader (e. g. acroread8 port) displays an ugly white mouse pointer where the normal black pointer should be. The same does Opera (e. g. opera-9.63 port) when
