Hello all, It will be great if I can get more people to help test with libtool/libltdl 2.2 before the freeze. It already has been tested in pointyhat-exp last week, we have fixed almost all of error logs. Only three ports have been marked as BROKEN is x11-wm/ion-2, audio/ccaudio and lang/ccscript. If anyone want to fix those, feel free to or those will be remove if nobody fix it in a few months. I have sent an email to pav for request another run in pointyhat-exp. However, to test libtool/libltdl, you will need to checkout ports-stable module from MarcusCom CVS.
1) See document: http://www.marcuscom.com:8080/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/ ... 2) Checkout ports tree by cvsup, csup, or whatever by your choice. 3) fetch http://www.marcuscom.com/downloads/marcusmerge script, then run 'sh marcusmerge -m ports-stable' and the password is 'anoncvs'. 4) You must run devel/libtool22/files/libtool22_hack.sh first before you try to install anything in ports tree. The libtool22_hack.sh will edit all ports/*/*/Makefile* to change libtool:15 -> libtool:22, devel/libtool15 -> devel/libtool22 and etc. If you need to create INDEX then you need to edit devel/Makefile by change lib*15 -> lib*22. 5) Reinstall everything that depend on libltdl due to shared library version bump, do this (untest): portmaster -o devel/libtool22 libtool-1.5\* portmaster -o devel/libltdl22 libltdl-1.5\* portmaster -r libltdl\* I believe that it's same way for portupgrade. If there is anything that behave change after this upgrade, let me know and I will try to fix it. Thanks! Cheers, Mezz On Fri, 17 Jul 2009 04:05:30 -0500, Erwin Lansing <er...@freebsd.org> wrote:
Below is the tentative schedule for the ports freeze in preparation for 8.0-RELEASE. If any major delays occur in the overall release schedule, the dates may be postponed, but please start preparing to have your changed committed to the tree before August 17 to ensure they are included in the release. Also, portmgr kindly asks anyone who has anything major lined up to already from today start mailing portmgr about these so we know what to expect and not be surprised by any major fallout that might extend the short freeze we have planned. August 17: ports tree is frozen and package build begin August 24: ports tree is thawed and final package builds begin August 31: FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE is released and ports tree is unfrozen -erwin
