pkgconfig errors
Hi, I am running OpenBSD 7.5 and when I try to compile stuff this happens: jesse@openbsd ~/source/suckless/st % make st build options: Deep recursion on subroutine "main::handle_config" at /usr/bin/pkg-config line 331. Deep recursion on subroutine "main::handle_config" at /usr/bin/pkg-config line 331. ^CDeep recursion on subroutine "main::handle_config" at /usr/bin/pkg-config line 331. Deep recursion on subroutine "main::handle_config" at /usr/bin/pkg-config line 331. Deep recursion on subroutine "main::handle_config" at /usr/bin/pkg-config line 329. ^CCFLAGS = -I/usr/X11R6/include -DVERSION="0.9" -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=600 -DVERSION="0.9" -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=600 -D_BSD_SOURCE -O2 -pipe *** Signal SIGINT in /home/jesse/source/suckless/st (options) jesse@openbsd ~/source/suckless/st % Thanks Jesse Lawton
Re: pkgconfig errors
I am currently using another pkgconfig package (pkgconf), but if anyone could tell me the problem it would be much appreciated. Thanks Jesse Lawton

Thats great, lots of improvements and the artwork looks super cool :D -- Thanks Jesse Lawton
Re: pkgconfig errors
What I ended up doing is just using pkgconf (another pkg-config package). Thanks Jesse Lawton

Have you set up any unusual environment variables affecting >pkg-config (`man 1 pkg-config`)? (Essentially a part of 1. above.) I don't *think* so. But I just decided to use pkgconf from ports as that works fine. Thanks Jesse Lawton
Access from LAN
Hi, theres probably a simple anwser for this but when I run a service on my OpenBSD laptop on my LAN I can't access it on other computers in my LAN. E.g. I put up a web server on 192.168.1.2 but can only access it on my laptop. Any help appreciated. Thanks Jesse Lawton
Re: Access from LAN
Oops, just sending this here as I accidently send it as a private
message.
Hi, thanks for your anwser heres my /etc/pf.conf:
# $OpenBSD: pf.conf,v 1.55 2017/12/03 20:40:04 sthen Exp $
#
# See pf.conf(5) and /etc/examples/pf.conf
set skip on lo
block return# block stateless traffic
pass# establish keep-state
# By default, do not permit remote connections to X11
block return in on ! lo0 proto tcp to port 6000:6010
# Port build user does not need network
block return out log proto {tcp udp} user _pbuild
pass out on egress inet from (wg0:network) nat-to (vio0:0)

Blockgame
As per this reddit post (https://rl.bloat.cat/r/openbsd_gaming/comments/1gsoe0u/support_minecraft_1213/) you cannot play newer Minecraft versions on OpenBSD. However it looks like a very easy fix and I made some changes to the source, but I can't compile it because it can't find Qt5CoreConfig.cmake/qt5core-config.cmake Is one of the mantainers able to fix it? -- Thanks Jesse Lawton

Re: Blockgame
Ok thanks, doesn't look too hard to implement. Hopefully it gets fixed sometime :) -- Thanks Jesse Lawton
Garmin Fenix MTP
Hi, I have a Garmin Fenix 5x - but on simple-mtpfs it doesn't show up. Are there any other MTP filesystems that can compile on OpenBSD? -- Thanks Jesse Lawton
7.7 upgrade was painless
Just want to say thanks to all the devs, upgrade was easy and painless! -- Thanks Jesse Lawton
Re: Garmin Fenix MTP
Ok it seems to just show up as a normal msdos filesystem now, I thought they only use MTP but :shrug: -- Thanks Jesse Lawton

Hi, just wondering if anything is happening about running new minecraft versions. Thanks :) -- Thanks Jesse Lawton
