FreshPorts -- devel/gmake

GNU make is a tool that controls the generation of executables and other non-source files from source files. Its purpose is the same as that of the utility make(1). WWW: http://www.gnu.org/software/make/make.html

To install the port: cd /usr/ports/devel/gmake/ && make install clean
To add the package: pkg_add -r gmake

Reassign the autotools-related ports to a new mailing list, autotools@FreeBSD.org. This is for individuals willing to put in the hard work to generate patches and work with portmgr as we put them through -exp runs and work through port breakage that they create. (A huge number of ports depend on these, so -exp runs are required.) Thanks to aDe@ for all the thankless work he's done over the years to tame these beasts. Hat: portmgr

Update CONFIGURE_ARGS for how we pass CONFIGURE_TARGET to configure script. Specifically, newer autoconf (> 2.13) has different semantic of the configure target. In short, one should use --build=CONFIGURE_TARGET instead of CONFIGURE_TARGET directly. Otherwise, you will get a warning and the old semantic may be removed in later autoconf releases. To workaround this issue, many ports hack the CONFIGURE_TARGET variable so that it contains the ``--build='' prefix. To solve this issue, under the fact that some ports still have configure script generated by the old autoconf, we use runtime detection in the do-configure target so that the proper argument can be used. Changes to Mk/*: - Add runtime detection magic in bsd.port.mk

Bump portrevision due to upgrade of devel/gettext. The affected ports are the ones with gettext as a run-dependency according to ports/INDEX-7 (5007 of them) and the ones with USE_GETTEXT in Makefile (29 of them). PR: ports/124340 Submitted by: edwin@ Approved by: portmgr (pav)

Clean up handling of locale directories at deinstall-time: * Don't remove "system directories" (which were created by BSD.*.dist) * Silently try to remove locale directories which we might have created

Various fixes for new scheme of detecting intl.4, which comes with this version of GNU make. Submitted by: KATO Tsuguru <tkato@prontomail.com> Also provide WITHOUT_NLS knob to build without localized messages.

Gmake now needs libiconv. I don't really care why, but a clean-room make package fails otherwise. Anyone who wants to improve on this commit should make sure to test that make package still works with libiconv not installed *before* doing anything. See the following log for more info: http://rabarber.fruitsalad.org/errors/200210090422/4-STABLE/gmake-3.80.log

Due to popular demant into each port which might be inserted into dependency list by bsd.port.mk insert anti foot-shooting device, which prevents infinite fork loop when the user defines corresponding USE_XXX in global make.conf, command line or environment. Similar devices should probably be inserted into ports that might be inserted into dependency list by others bsd.foo.mk files (bsd.ruby.mk, bsd.python.mk and so on.)

Stage a mini-coup, and borrow these ports from portmgr@ for a while, since I'm doing most of the updating, and am working on a port/Mk/bsd.<gnublah>.mk to move some cruft around. Sponsored by: Mr. Smith and Mr. Wesson. :)

gettext upgrade uber-patch (stage 3) - switch devel/gettext (0.11.1) on, installing full package - flip devel/gettext-old (0.10.35) to installing only static binaries with a "-old" suffix -- gettext-old will have its deorbit burn sequence initiated just after 4.6-RELEASE - fix up ports for the new world order Reviewed by: portmgr

Stage 1 of gettext update. Move gettext (0.10.35) with gettext-old Update gettext from gettext-devel (0.10.40) Remove gettext-devel Fix dependencies Stage 2 will involve upgraded gettext to 0.11 and fixing issues Stage 3 involves a de-orbit burn sequence for gettext-old Reviewed by: portmgr
