Hi all, I'm attempting to make my first port which is attempting to literally unpack a tgz into the correct location. I'm wanting a port, as I want this to be versioned and upgradable on all my systems via pkg (as well as to handle dependencies, etc). I'm attempting to use make makeplist to create the initial pkg-plist as there are a lot of files present, and I'm getting the following error: # make makeplist ===> License BSD4CLAUSE accepted by the user ===> nebula-db-0.1 depends on file: /usr/local/sbin/pkg - found ===> Fetching all distfiles required by nebula-db-0.1 for building ===> Extracting for nebula-db-0.1 => SHA256 Checksum OK for nebula-db-0.1.tar.gz. ===> Patching for nebula-db-0.1 ===> Configuring for nebula-db-0.1 ===> Staging for nebula-db-0.1 ===> Generating temporary packing list make[1]: cannot open Makefile. make[1]: stopped in /usr/local/poudriere/ports/nebula/misc/nebula-db/work/nebula-db-0.1 *** Error code 2 Stop. make: stopped in /usr/local/poudriere/ports/nebula/misc/nebula-db I get this when I do "make stage" as well.
Greetings Joseph, I'm not sure if I follow you exactly. But if I understand you correctly; you're looking to create a pkg-plist file via make makeplist, and your port doesn't actually build anything (contains installation files?). You need a minimum of Makefile distindo pkg-descr in your port directory. for a minimum Makefile for what I understand your port to do. The following should work: # $FreeBSD$ PORTNAME= PORTVERSION= CATEGORIES= MASTER_SITES= MAINTAINER= COMMENT= LICENSE= LICENSE_FILE= (if necessary) USES= tar:txz NO_BUILD= yes .include <bsd.port.mk> note the key here is NO_BUILD you mention your distfile uses tar(1) and xz(1). The above example assumes the extension name is .txz ; adjust as needed. You will (of couse) need to fill all the empty fields as needed, as well as add || subtract them, as needed. Hope this helps. --Chris _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
