PRs for Typo3 time out
Hi, in the past I created a few PRs with patches for important security updates for typo3. Unfortunately they all timed out. 10 days ago I created a new one: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=149236 I guess it will also time out. Now, there is another update: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=149493 I also expect it to time out. What is the time GNATS is waiting for feedback of the maintainer? Does it make a difference if importance and/or severity are raised? IMHO it is a problem if important security fixes are approved only after a 14-day-or-more timeout. Are there mechanisms to avoid such a delay?

Looks as if we need a misc/compat8x
I rebuilt the installed ports on my build machine under stable/8 yesterday (as there are no other machinies for which it builds that run stable/7 any more). No surprises when I updated local mirrors overnight or built today's stable/8. But then I rebooted under head (different slice), and found that screen(1) needed libutil.so.8, and sudo(1) need both that and libz.so.5. I copied the requisite libraries to /usr/local/lib/compat/pkg from the stable/8 slice, and so far, things appear back to normal. I expect that a "real" compat8x port might need a few more libraries -- my build machine has a rather small number of installed ports Peace, david -- David H.

question on an app that uses the fusefs libs/possible port
Hi, I have been trying to use the flickfs library(1) to mount my flickr photostream for local editing/backup with limited success. My guess is it's fallen behind where FUSE is these days. The most recent version is more than 3 years old and perhaps the FUSE development space is too volatile for it to still work. I expect this would be a useful port for FreeBSD users as it gets rid of web page-based management and allows more control over one's work. Would you or anyone who understands FUSE be interested in getting this to work? Here's where I have gotten it so far: o I get authentication to work (uses the standard Flickr token passing). o FUSE takes the mount point and attaches the flickr stream to it and I get lots of helpful log messages. o But the mount point itself is inaccessible. /dev/fuse0 2.0G 0B2.0G 0%/mnt/flickr [/home/paul]:: file /mnt/flickr /mnt/flickr: cannot open `/mnt/flickr' (Invalid argument) 08/10/10 02:19:26 flickrfs INFODummy-1 __sync_set_in_background set /sets/Nov 2, 2009 sync successfully finished 08/10/10 02:19:26 flickrfs INFODummy-1 __sync_set_in_background syncing set /sets/Oct 31, 2009 08/10/10 02:19:26 flickrfs.trans DEBUG Dummy-1 getPhotosFromPhotoset set id: 72157622581882143 08/10/10 02:19:27 flickrfs DEBUG Dummy-1_sync_code new image found: /sets/Oct 31, 2009/IMG_0577.jpg And umounting gives me back the directory: [/home/paul]:: umount /mnt/flickr (p...@shuttle.paulbeard.org)-(10:50 AM / Tue Aug 10) [/home/paul]:: df Filesystem 1K-blocks UsedAvail Capacity Mounted on /dev/ad2s1a507630 4095505747088%/ devfs 110 100%/dev /dev/ad2s1e507630 46 466974 0%/tmp /dev/ad2s1f 111232718 88209744 1412435886%/usr /dev/ad2s1d 2012718 1198316 65338665%/var devfs 110 100%/var/named/dev (p...@shuttle.paulbeard.org)-(10:50 AM / Tue Aug 10) [/home/paul]:: file /mnt/flickr/ /mnt/flickr/: directory [/home/paul]:: python flickrfs.py /mnt/flickr/ Authorizing with flickr...
