hi folks,
I understand the need for correctness, but the limits for find ... -exec
are really low, and it's quite unclear why things fail when they do.
cd /cvs/pkgsrc/fonts/urbanrenewal-ttf/
make patch
mkdir -p work/.destdir/usr/pkg/share/fonts/X11/TTF
find /cvs/pkgsrc/fonts/urbanrenewal-ttf/work -name '*.ttf' -exec
/usr/bin/install -c -o fly -g users -m 644 "{}"
/cvs/pkgsrc/fonts/urbanrenewal-ttf/work/.destdir/usr/pkg/share/fonts/X11/TTF ";"

(1 hour of investigating with the help of leot later...)
this is 7 files!
wanting to write a portable version, I have to limit myself to what
POSIX find and POSIX xargs support, which isn't much :-/
I got this in the end:
${FIND} ${WRKSRC} -iname '*.ttf' -print | \
${XARGS} -I % ${INSTALL_DATA} % ${DESTDIR}${TTF_FONTS_DIR}
Can we do something about this so find .. -exec is usable in more cases? :-)
