FreshPorts wants to extract the pkg-message. It is useful information.
The problem: how we I populate pkg-message when it is not in the repo?
For example, files/pkg-message.in.
The following outlines the solutions and problems I have encountered.
I'm looking for suggestions. Things I would like to avoid if possible:
* fetching distfiles
* building (other ports)
* installing packages
I will go through a few different situations:
1 - pkg-message exists in the ports tree
[dan@empty:/usr/ports/sysutils/zfsnap] $ make -V PKGMESSAGE
/usr/ports/sysutils/zfsnap/pkg-message
Yes, that file exists, we can use it.
2 - pkg-message does not exist
[dan@empty:/usr/ports/sysutils/mkjail] $ make -V PKGMESSAGE
/usr/ports/sysutils/mkjail/pkg-message
[dan@empty:/usr/ports/sysutils/mkjail] $ ls -l
/usr/ports/sysutils/mkjail/pkg-message
ls: /usr/ports/sysutils/mkjail/pkg-message: No such file or directory
[dan@empty:/usr/ports/sysutils/mkjail] $
In this case, there is no .in extension, and we ignore it. There is
nothing to be obtained
3 - files/pkg-message.in exists
[dan@empty:/usr/ports/sysutils/bsdstats] $ make -V PKGMESSAGE
/var/ports/usr/ports/sysutils/bsdstats/work/pkg-message
How do I get that file created with minimal work?
For example:
Compare with:
[dan@empty:/usr/ports/sysutils/anvil] $ make -V PKGMESSAGE
/var/ports/usr/ports/sysutils/anvil/work/pkg-message
if /work occurs in the path, I know it does not exist yet.
Here's how I create it. This was one approach:
[dan@empty:/usr/ports/sysutils/anvil] $ make -V PKGMESSAGE
/var/ports/usr/ports/sysutils/anvil/work/pkg-message
[dan@empty:/usr/ports/sysutils/anvil] $ sudo make configure -DNO_DIALOG

This does a lot of building. A lot. That's not good.
Is there a better way?
Thank you.
