- Description:
- nvi is an implementation of the ex/vi text editor.
The original vi was written by William Joy. Later Mark Horton added
a number of enhancements.
nvi was written by Keith Bostic and was distributed as part of the
Fourth Berkeley Software Distribution (4BSD) by the University of
California, Berkeley.
This version is based on a fork of nvi by Sven Verdoolaege. It is
very similar to the base vi but includes the expandtab option from
NetBSD which is handy for Python development.

Two github issues identified the same problem:

editors/nvi2: Fix core dump when tags file pattern has a trailing '\'
If you create a tags file of a macro that ends with a '\' and tag
for it, vi dumps core. For example:
zinc 76 % cat test.h
#define LATIN2PLAIN(ch) (((u_char)ch) >= 0x80 ? \
pgm_read_byte_far(pgm_get_far_address(latin2plain) + \
(((u_char)ch) - 0x80)) : (isprint(ch) ? (ch) : '_'))
zinc 77 % ctags test.h
zinc 78 % vi -t LATIN2PLAIN
Segmentation fault
The problem is that the loop variable is unsigned (size_t) and it
gets decremented twice: 1 -> 0 -> 4294967295
Apply the upstream patch to solve this:

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

*/*: Remove redundant '-[0-9]*' from CONFLICTS_INSTALL
The conflict checks compare the patterns first against the package
names without version (as reported by "pkg query "%n"), then - if
there was no match - agsinst the full package names including the
version (as reported by "pkg query "%n-%v").

editors/nvi2: fix build on GCC architectures
Use newer GCC:
cc1: error: unrecognized command line option "-Wno-dangling-else"
cc1: error: unrecognized command line option "-fcolor-diagnostics"
-fcolor-diagnostics is incompatible with GCC, compilation works fine with Clang
also without it. |
