Hello to all I'm Carlo, I make part of "Plan CRUX Italy" and are content to make your acquaintance even if only virtual. Made the due presentations I wanted to ask if the ports contained in the directory unmaintained/ they can be "adopts" freely or there are priority. Thanks to all Carlo P.S. I ask first excuse for my wrong one post and also for my little corrected English :) -- X-Mailer: Mutt/1.4i on CRUX 1.1 GNU/Linux box | LinuxMachine 204914 Progetto CRUX Italia: www.crux-it.org

[clc-devel] Application
by Thomas Mausbach 11 Sep '03

11 Sep '03

My name is Thomas Mausbach from Cologne (Germany) and I'm interessted in becoming a Maintainer. My IRC nick is 'hulahub' and if I'm online you can find me in the #crux channel. I've created some Ports: teamspeak_client <http://www.mausbach.mynetcologne.de/crux/ports/teamspeak_client/> teamspeak_server <http://www.mausbach.mynetcologne.de/crux/ports/teamspeak_server/> vim-gtk2 <http://www.mausbach.mynetcologne.de/crux/ports/vim-gtk2/> I think they are well formed, and hope I get any response. Note: I wanted to tell you that libSDL has been updated to 1.2.6. I think it's an important release, because it fixes the refresh rate bug. So I hope you will update it.

[clc-devel] two collection of ports
by [slash] 07 Sep '03

07 Sep '03

I (and other italian crux users) think that isn't good to have two collection of contrib ports (1.1 and 1.2), because many crux users often upgrade the system by installing the new version of their packages then even if their system is marked "version 1.1" they have a system thet is upgraded like (or more than) a 1.2 ones. see you soon!

dear Jurgen, i've understood the way to work of CLC with cvs; but i've not understood why a crux user have to re-install crux (the new version) to use the new ports even if he have upgraded his system. * juergen.daubert(a)t-online.de (juergen.daubert(a)t-online.de) ha scritto: | On Sat, Sep 06, 2003 at 11:47:28AM +0200, [slash] wrote: | | Hi Guiseppe, | | > I (and other italian crux users) think that isn't good to have two | > collection of contrib ports (1.1 and 1.2), because many crux users often | > upgrade the system by installing the new version of their packages then | > even if their system is marked "version 1.1" they have a system thet is upgraded | > like (or more than) a 1.2 ones. | | I'm sorry to say, but this shows me that you not really understand how | cvs and the tagging system we (CLC) use works.

[clc-devel] non-root users in .footprint
by Martin Opel 05 Sep '03

05 Sep '03

Hi all, especially the new maintainers :), the following ports contain non-root users in the footprint: xfce4-artwork xfce4-minicmd-plugin xfce4-netload-plugin xfce4-showdesktop-plugin xfce4-systemload-plugin Please correct this. If you build ports as a non-root user (this is what I prefer, because you see when buggy install scripts try to install directly in /usr/bin,...), you can check the port with the prtcheck scripts from the prt-utils package: ----------- sample session ----------- scott@host > pkgmk =======> ERROR: Footprint mismatch found: MISSING drwxr-xr-x root/root etc/ MISSING -rw-r--r-- root/root etc/prtwash.conf ... NEW drwxr-xr-x user/users etc/ NEW -rw-r--r-- user/users etc/prtwash.conf ... =======> ERROR: Building '/home...clc/prt-utils/prt-utils#0.5.1-1.pkg.tar.gz' failed. scott@host > pkgmk -uf =======> Footprint updated. scott@host > prtcheck ====> WARNING: non-root users found! ====> WARNING: run "prtcheck --root" to convert footprint scott@host > prtcheck --root scott@host > cvs diff .footprint scott@host > ----> NO FOOTPRINT DIFFERENCES, PORT OK! ----------- end sample session ----------- If the unpacked tar archive contains files with different uids or different gids (php 4.3.3 is such a buggy package) and the install routine does not change them to the executing user, then you have to insert a "chown -R root:root $PKG/" as the last line in your Pkgfile. The method shown above does not work in this case, because pkgmk fails: a non-root user cannot "chown root" files.
