USB Keyboard LEDs are back
Hi list, FYI: since portupgrade of yesterday (30th October 2007) with some new xorg ports and restarting X all LEDs of my USB-keyboards are working again. Sorry, if I missed previous mail with same message ;-) Thank you, Rainer ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

It's just bad luck that no one picked up the PR before the freeze. I often had my PRs committed within minutes of writing the PR. This time no one took it within 4 days. Well, it's my fault to rely on something that cannot be relied on. When the ports page on bsdstats was still open it said that only between 10 and 20 people (I do not remember the exact figure) use my port, so it ain't that bad. ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

port test error
Good morning,
I am new to creating ports, and am running into a little trouble. I have
created a Makefile which seems to work correctly when testing with both
`portlint -A` and `port test`. A "registering installation" message is
recieved and the program can be executed successfully. When `port test`
attempts to create a package it fails with the following error.
*--- Cut out similar messages to save room --*
tar: metamorphose_1.1.0/icons/failed.png: Cannot stat: No such file or directory

The package always seems to end up in ${PORTSDIR}/work/${PACKAGENAME}
and that is where it is executable from. It's as if tar does not know to look
there. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Check your pkg-plist.
Probably "failed.png" isn't installed where your pkg-plist says it should.

bsd.sites.mk changes (was Re: Xfce goodies master sites)
The questions: is this the right thing to do and is it the right way to
go about it?
If bsd.sites.mk is changed as shown below, all of the xfce "goodies"
ports can use
MASTER_SITES= ${MASTER_SITE_XFCE_GOODIES}
That will unify all of the goodies ports and ease future changes like
additional mirrors or moves.
There are currently 26 ports of xfce goodies (not counting the
xfce-notification-daemon port, which I haven't submitted yet):
