Suggestion to replace util-linux
by Mustafa Oezkan 05 Dec '07

Hi, i suggest to replace util-linux in favour for [1]util-linux-ng. Util-linux is unmaintained since years. [1]http://userweb.kernel.org/~kzak/util-linux-ng/ -- There's a difference between, doing wrong and being wrong.

prt-get and pkgmk -cf
by Lucas Hazel 27 Nov '07

27 Nov '07

I wanted to setup my laptop to use my home package repository, but still be able to build packages when I'm roaming by just using a different set of config files. So I made /etc/pkgmk-nfs.conf and set the variables, eg: PKGMK_PACKAGE_PATH=/net/home/pkgmk/package/i686 Then make a /etc/prt-get-nfs.conf, in particular set, makecommand pkgmk -cf /etc/pkgmk-nfs.conf This gives the following error: prt-get: updating /net/home/pkgmk/ports/opt/glib =======> Package '/net/home/pkgmk/package/i686/glib#2.14.3-1.pkg.tar.gz' is up to date. prt-get: updating glib from 2.14.0-1 to 2.14.3-1 pkgadd: could not open glib#2.14.3-1.pkg.tar.gz: No such file or directory So pkgmk finds the package is up to date, but pkgadd fails. Upon inspecting the prt-get source I find the following function in installtransaction.cpp, string InstallTransaction::getPkgDest() const { string pkgdest = ""; pkgdest = getPkgDestFromFile("/etc/pkgmk.conf"); if (pkgdest.size() == 0) { pkgdest = getPkgDestFromFile("/usr/bin/pkgmk"); } m_pkgDest = pkgdest; return pkgdest; } It seems to me that we should be able to set the pkgmk config file either in prt-get.conf or atleast as an environment variable, rather than using a hardwired constant. That or I'm just an edge case no one cares about :) -- Lucas Hazel

XCB 1.1 in ports -- assertion behaviour changed
by Tilman Sauerbeck 18 Nov '07

18 Nov '07

Hi, I've put libxcb 1.1 in ports some days ago. In previous versions, the CRUX port used to disable the xlib locking assertions. In 1.1, the XCB developers added support for suppressing the assertions using the environment variable LIBXCB_ALLOW_SLOPPY_LOCK. So if you've got Xlib applications crashing with the locking assertion, please set LIBXCB_ALLOW_SLOPPY_LOCK=1. Regards, Tilman -- A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? A: Top-posting. Q: What is the most annoying thing on usenet and in e-mail?
