BSDstats Maintainer Update

2014-01-05 Thread A.J. Kehoe IV (Nanoman)

Can someone please commit the patch that I included in PR 175879?

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=175879&getpatch=1

I've now had three people ask for this to be fixed.  I'm sure there are more 
people affected who haven't commented publicly.

Thanks in advance!

Rubygem-rdoc wasn't installed at all, so this isn't it either I'm afraid.

FreeBSD ports you maintain which are out of date

2014-01-05 Thread portscout
Dear port maintainer,

The portscout new distfile checker has detected that one or more of your
ports appears to be out of date. Please take the opportunity to check
each of the ports listed below, and if possible and appropriate,
submit/commit an update. If any ports have already been updated, you can
safely ignore the entry.

You will not be e-mailed again for any of the port/version combinations
below.

Full details can be found at the following URL:

Port| Current version | New version

Hi!

I had a similar problem some time ago. Some intermediate combination of
pkg-tools/ruby/portupgrade installed bad metadata. The following
helped me identity the ports with bad files:

find /var/db/pkg -type f -exec iconv -t US-ASCII {} > /dev/null \;

Reinstalling the indicated ports solved it for me. I'm currently using
pkg-tools, ruby19 and portupgrade with no problems on FreeBSD 8.3.


Well thank you Gyrd! This was actually the problem. Your commandline 
showed that jpilot had bad metadata, and after removing it the pkgdb seems 
clean again.


Thanks all for the help.

bind99 port overwriting named.conf

2014-01-05 Thread Jim Ohlstein

Hello,

I upgraded ports yesterday and (much to my chagrin) found that 
/usr/local/etc/named/named.conf had been overwritten.


I initially reported it to the maintainer and was told "now, you know it 
does that and you can save it before upgrading.".


This seems to be counter to the way most (all?) other ports work, 
especially when it was not even a minor version upgrade.


Further, looking at 
http://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports?view=revision&revision=335667, it seems 
the intent is:


"Install named.conf as named.conf.sample and don't overwrite on upgrade".

So which is it going to be going forward?

Please cc me on replies as I do not subscribe to this list.

Problem with ports after upgrade of Perl to 5.16.3_6 - overload arg '..' is invalid at Math/BigInt.pm line 153.

2014-01-05 Thread Miroslav Lachman

Hi,

I upgraded Perl from 5.12 to 5.16:

   portmaster -o lang/perl5.16 perl-5.12.5

Then I reinstalled all dependent ports:

   portmaster -x fastresolve -R -r perl5-5.16.3_6

(the full list of reinstalled dependencies are on the end of the message)


After this upgrade, each port using Math/BigInt.pm shows warning:

# service sqlgrey restart
Stopping sqlgrey.
Waiting for PIDS: 986.
Starting sqlgrey.
overload arg '..' is invalid at 
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.16/Math/BigInt.pm line 153.




# mrtg --check
overload arg '..' is invalid at 
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.16/Math/BigInt.pm line 153.

Usage: mrtg 


Is it known problem? Should I file a PR?
I found some questions about this problem from year 2012, but not known 
fix / workaround.


The system in question is FreeBSD 8.4-RELEASE-p4 i386 GENERIC

I'd have to check what I did at work, but I think I just used a
different  PREFIX to install to a different place. My cross-compile
build system needs the tools specified in environment variables 
anyway, so I don't even need to adjust my path.

I have seen it before. Fix:

Comment out the line 153 in
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.16/Math/BigInt.pm.

Root cause is in math/p5-Math-BigInt:

It overloads lots of operations, one of them isn't even in perl yet 8-}

The problem is with the package installation, binaries are installed
correctly, only some localization files are blocking and makes
binutils/arm-eabi-binutils exclusive.. Otherwise build works fine with
no environmental variables/changes :-)

Running portaudit -X 14 reports this on my system:

The portaudit tool is now obsolete, please remove portaudit and use the
command 'pkg audit' instead.  See man pkg-audit(8) for more information.


Shouldn't we then remove the invocation to portaudit in bsd.port.mk and
replace it with pkg-audit?

bsd.port.mk detects automatically if your system is using pkg or the old
pkg tools and invokes the correct tool.

Since the old pkg tools are not deprecated yet (8.x and 9.x), removing

hal, ntfs, and 10.0-RC3

2014-01-05 Thread Kevin Oberman
Since I updated to 10.0-RC3 (from 9), hald no longer works with my ntfs
partitions. I can mount them manually with ntfs-3g, but when not mounted,
hal does not see them at all.
> ls /dev/ntfs

I mount on NTFS partition and:
> lshal | grep ada0
  block.device = '/dev/ada0'  (string)
  freebsd.device_file = '/dev/ada0'  (string)
  block.device = '/dev/ada0s1'  (string)
  block.device = '/dev/ada0s2'  (string)
  block.device = '/dev/ada0s3'  (string)
  block.device = '/dev/ada0s5'  (string)

  block.device = '/dev/ntfs/Windows7_OS'  (string)
  info.product = 'Windows7_OS'  (string)
  volume.label = 'Windows7_OS'  (string)
After a umount, all slices vanish again.

Might this be fall-out of the removal of ntfs (read-only) support? I have
not looked through the hald sources to see how it detects these slices. I
do find it interesting that mounting one NTFS file system causes all of the
other ones appear to hald.

Any suggestions?

# pkg install science/paraview

pkg amd64 11-current: several packages installed via pkg install do not work, but work when built/installed directly via ports

2014-01-05 Thread Anton Shterenlikht
HI

Before I PRs on this, I wanted to check
if nobody else has seen this problem.

In particular:

audio/sdl_mixer
x11/nvidia-driver

give errors when installed via pkg install.
This is on 11.0-CURRENT #8 r257910 with
default /etc/pkg/FreeBSD.conf and pkg.conf.

nvidia:

KLD nvidia.ko: depends on kernel - not available or version mismatch
linker_load_file: Unsupported file type

sdl_mixer:

$ monsterz
/usr/local/share/monsterz/monsterz.py: could not open data from 
`/usr/local/share/monsterz'.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/share/monsterz/monsterz.py", line 1994, in 
main()
  File "/usr/local/share/monsterz/monsterz.py", line 1983, in main
data = Data(sharedir)
  File "/usr/local/share/monsterz/monsterz.py", line 305, in __init__
pygame.mixer.music.load(join(dir, 'sound', 'music.s3m'))
pygame.error: Unrecognized music format
$

games/monsterz indirectly depends on audio/sdl_mixer.

When rebuilt via ports directly - no errors.

So, has anybody else seen this?

Thanks

First that comes to mind is that it doesn't build, which was the right
guess :
http://beefy2.isc.freebsd.org/bulk/head-amd64-default/2014-01-05_13h19m25s/logs/errors/paraview-3.10.1_1.log

Other reason would be that it had depended on something that didn't build
either.

Thanks

I submitted a PR on this:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=185522

although, I guess the maintainer would've seen the status already:

http://portsmon.freebsd.org/portoverview.py?category=science&portname=paraview

Its probably better if you direct your request to the maintainer of the
port, ideally using http://www.freebsd.org/send-pr.html, identifying the
upgrade benefits and further details to pique their interest.  For
example, strongswan:

Current ports version is 5.0.4 and released version by strongswan is
5.1.1 (version 5.1.2 is scheduled for February)

Reasons for the request are:
1. Rectification of security vulnerabilities allowing Denial of Service:
https://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2013-6075
https://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2013-6076
https://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2013-5018

2. Rectification of security vulnerabilities allowing user impersonation
and bypassing access restrictions
CVE-2013-6075 (above)

3. Refer to change log
http://wiki.strongswan.org/projects/strongswan/wiki/Changelog51,
specifically ...

But of course the first thing to do is to use
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr-summary.cgi to check if the request
has already been made.  And in this instance it has!
Please refer to http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=ports/183688

And given the outstanding CVEs I'd suggest that you apply the patches,
if you're going to use this port; pending maintainer's availability.

Francois, I've included you, as the CVE's should push this update from a
low priority/non-critical category to a medium given that it can be
DOS'ed via the network without authentication.  (And unfortunately IKEv1
is required for iPhone clients using IPSEC)

Regards, Dewayne.
