FreeBSD ports that you maintain which are currently marked broken
Dear FreeBSD port maintainer: As part of an ongoing effort to reduce the number of problems in the FreeBSD ports system, we are attempting to notify maintainers of ports that are marked as "broken" in their Makefiles. In many cases these ports are failing to compile on some subset of the FreeBSD build environments. The most common problem is that recent versions of -CURRENT include gcc3.4, which is much stricter about such things as function declarations, literal strings constants that continue over several physical lines, and forcing the deprecation of antique header files such as varargs.h (we should now be using stdargs.h). The next most common problem is that compiles succeed on the i386 architecture (e.g. the common Intel PC), but fail on one or more of the other architectures due to assumptions about things such as size of various types, byte-alignment issues, and so forth. In occasional cases we see that the same port may have different errors in different build environments. The script that runs on the build cluster uses heuristics to try to 'guess' the error type to help you isolate problems, but it is only a rough guide. If you need help in one or more build environments that you do not have access to, please ask for help on the freebsd-ports mailing list. One more note: on occasion, there are transient build errors seen on the build farm. Unfortunately, there is not yet any way for this algorithm to tell the difference (humans are much, much better at this kind of thing.) The errors are listed below. In the case where the same problem exists on more than one build environment, the URL points to the latest errorlog for that type. (By 'build environment' here we mean 'combination of 4.x/5.x/6.x with target architecture'.) (Note: the dates are included to help you to gauge whether or not the error still applies to the latest version. The program that generates this report is not yet able to determine this automatically.) portname: audio/festival+OGI broken because: Touches filesystem prior to make install build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=audio&portname=festival%2BOGI portname: audio/spiralloops broken because: Does not compile (bad C++ code) build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=audio&portname=spiralloops portname: biology/molden broken because: Size mismatch build errors: http://pointyhat.FreeBSD.org/errorlogs/amd64-errorlogs/e.6.2006072612/molden-4.4_1.log (Sep 5 03:36:28 UTC 2006) overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=biology&portname=molden portname: chinese/gbfs broken because: fails to patch build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=chinese&portname=gbfs portname: chinese/iiimf-le-chewing broken because: fails to install (dependency problem) build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=chinese&portname=iiimf-le-chewing portname: chinese/xemacs broken because: Does not build even with fix for -lxpg4 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=chinese&portname=xemacs portname: comms/pstngw broken because: Does not compile on FreeBSD >= 5.x build errors: http://pointyhat.FreeBSD.org/errorlogs/sparc64-errorlogs/e.5.2006022503/pstngw-1.2.2_1.log (Mar 14 01:12:02 UTC 2006) http://pointyhat.freebsd.org/errorlogs/i386-errorlogs/e.4.2006071303/pstngw-1.2.2_1.log (Sep 2 10:14:26 GMT 2006) overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=comms&portname=pstngw portname: databases/glom broken because: needs an update to 1.0 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=databases&portname=glom portname: databases/p5-GDBM broken because: Does not compile build errors: http://pointyhat.FreeBSD.org/errorlogs/sparc64-errorlogs/e.5.2006022503/p5-GDBM-1.00.log (Mar 15 01:21:42 UTC 2006) overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=databases&portname=p5-GDBM portname: deskutils/offix-trash broken because: Does not compile (bad C++ code) build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=deskutils&portname=offix-trash portname: deskutils/taskjuggler broken because: fails to install build errors: http://pointyhat.FreeBSD.org/errorlogs/sparc64-errorlogs/e.5.2006022503/taskjuggler-2.2.0.log (Jun 7 15:41:21 UTC 2006) http://pointyhat.FreeBSD.org/errorlogs/amd64-errorlogs/e.5.2006070603/taskjuggler-2.2.0.log (Jul 16 19:53:27 UTC 2006) overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=deskutils&portname=taskjuggler por
Ports freeze for 6.2 starts October 10
Hi, In preparation for the 6.2 release, the ports tree will be frozen from October 10. No commits will be allowed without explicit portmgr approval. We hope we can keep the freeze short and go into slush after one week. The tree will be completely unfrozen after the release is announced. For the full schedule, see the release schedule http://www.freebsd.org/releases/6.2R/schedule.html (updated after the next rebuild). As always, only commit that fix existing breakage will be allowed during the freeze and we encourage everyone will help fix as many ports as possible for this release. For more information about what kinds of commits are allowed during which period, please see the portmgr policies webpage at http://www.freebsd.org/portmgr/policies_committing.html On behalf of portmgr, -erwin -- Erwin Lansing http://droso.org Security is like an onion.

FreeBSD ports that you maintain which are currently marked forbidden
Dear FreeBSD port maintainer: As part of an ongoing effort to reduce the number of problems in the FreeBSD ports system, we are attempting to notify maintainers of ports that are marked as "forbidden" in their Makefiles.

I found a work around to avoid this problem. The work around is change the time in line 51 from 1 to 10 or something. I suppose that some kind of racing condition occurs between daemon command in line 48 and cat command in line 52. I also found that the same problem occurs even in dkfilter_in. This might also avoided with the work around above. I also made a patch, which is attached to this email. With the patch, dkfilter_out script will spin wait until a size of a temporary file becomes larger than 0, instead of just wating 1 secound. This patch fixed the problem on my FreeBSD machine. If the patch solves your problem, please let me know. I will sendpr this.

Re: FreeBSD Port: dkfilter-0.10_1
Yanagisawa-san, I did some more troubleshooting of my own last night I found out that by increasing the sleep time to 5 secs or more the problem doesn't occur. I agree with you analysis that there is some kind of race condition between line 48 and 52. Thanks for the patch you e-mail me. I've applied the patch and rebooted a couple of times and it looks fine. Thanks again. /cm Yoshisato YANAGISAWA wrote: >Dear Charles, > >Thank you for reporting the problem. > >On Sat, 16 Sep 2006 18:17:16 -0700 >Charles Mujie <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > >>I have a question on dkfilter-0.10_1.

I based this off of the SDL conversation. The GNOME 2.16 merge will be _much_ more involved since the PREFIX move will touch a lot of ports. We were thinking of a full pointyhat regression. I'm all for a pre-freeze commit if you think it's doable, but know that I will be traveling in the UK for two weeks starting on the 23rd, so at least I will be spotty when it comes to helping out with breakage.
