Say hello to the linux mega patch, it consolidates our linux bits a
little bit and allows to proceed to a more recent linux_base from
a stable (read as: the major bugs should be ironed out or identified
and most linux ports build just fine) source.
It also allows to ship 4.11 with a working linuxolator (the EOLed
linux_base is marked forbidden because of a security hole).
This is a major update, please read UPDATING (and CHANGES if you
develop linux ports).
Changes:
- change the default linux_base from v7 to v8
- add a newer freetype to linux_base-8 for nicer fonts display [1]
- don't let cpio use hardlinks in the linux_base-8 port to quiet some
warnings in some cases [2]
- fix a cut&past error in the linux_base-8 pkg-install script [3]
- convert the binary knob "USE_LINUX" to a version specifier, e.g.
USE_LINUX=<value> specifies a dependency upon
emulators/linux_base-<value>, exceptions are a value of "7" (which
does what you want and adds a dependency to linux_base) and any
value without a corresponding port in
PORTSDIR/emulators/linux_base-<value> (which adds a dependency to
the default linux_base)
- don't implicitly add USE_LINUX with the USE_LINUX_PREFIX knob,
this allows us to use the USE_LINUX_PREFIX knob for linux_base and
paves the way for splitting up future linux base ports into
individual pieces
- remove RESTRICTED from some GPL licensed ports, even when we only
distribute binaries, we get them from official linux sites, so
anyone can grab them there if he needs to
- add a dependency upon the linux X11 bits where necessary (based upon
guesswork)
- don't use USE_X_PREFIX in some linux ports since it adds a dependency
to the FreeBSD X11 libs, as a workaround use PREFIX?= (the clean
solution would be to remove the implicit USE_XLIB from USE_X_PREFIX)
- bump the portrevision of the linux ports ("better safe than sorry"
algorithm)
- pass maintainership of the important linux infrastructure to a
mailinglist, hijack freebsd-emulation@ for this purpose (if somebody
doesn't like this: tell us your bikeshed color at freebsd-emulation@,
my color would be "linuxolator@" in case someone cares...)
- add a pkg-install script for linux-fontconfig, but don't use it;
everything should work without it (the FreeBSD fc-cache program should
do all the work), but in case we need it we just need to decomment the
pkg-install part in the Makefile
- fix some dependencies
- fix some bugs
- add some static plists
- unbreak the ports with dependecies to more than one linux_base
This also fixes some ports which are marked BROKEN because of dependencies
to v7 and v8 of linux_base at the same time.
Known bugs:
- the linux-mesa and linux-devtools ports install libGL*.so symlinks
- some "minor" plist bugs (e.g. ld.so.{conf,cache} are modified by
the linux X11 port, so linx_Base-8 moans at deinstall time)
Future work (interested souls should coordinate with freebsd-emulation@):
- add some kind of USE_LINUX_X11 knob to streamline the X11 dependencies,
or modify the behavior of USE_XLIB in the USE_LINUX case
AFAIK trevor has some patches.
- make USE_XLIB and USE_X_PREFIX orthogonal to be able to get rid of
the PREFIX?= workaround in some linux ports
Should be discussed/coordinated on/with x11@.
- move the RPM bits from x11-toolkits/linux-gtk/Makefile to PORTSDIR/Mk/
- update to a more recent linux base
