Mega-patch to cleanup the ports infrastructure regarding our linux bits:
- USE_LINUX now implies NO_FILTER_SHLIBS=yes. It also doesn't use FreeBSD
tools to strip binaries anymore, so it's not neccesary anymore to override
STRIP and STRIP_CMD.
- USE_LINUX_PREFIX implies NO_MTREE now.
- In the USE_LINUX case, USE_XLIB now depends upon the linux X11 libraries
instead upon the native FreeBSD libraries.
- The variable LINUX_BASE_PORT contains a string which is suitable as an
item in *_DEPENDS, so if a port BATCH_DEPENDS or FETCH_DEPENDS upon the
default (or overriden) linux base, ${LINUX_BASE_PORT} should be used
instead of a hardcoded reference.
- Change all ports to comply to the "new world order".
- The Ports Collection now allows to override the default linux_base port.
Specify e.g. OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT=rh-9 in /etc/make.conf to use
${PORTSDIR}/emulators/linux_base-rh-9 (the logic is to use (Only the first 15 lines of the commit message are shown above ) |

Revert the acroread port to version 5.10. There's too much heated
discussion about it (some of which reminds me to a certain color of
bikesheds), so I'm going to commit version 7.0.0 into a port of its
own. |

Install a symlink for ${LOCALBASE}/bin/acroread, too (in adddition to
acroread7). This resolves the biggest complaint about the new
acroread port. In case an acroread5 port will appear, it then needs
to either be marked as CONFLICT with acroread7, or it should not
install the same symlink, too. This should fix all other ports that
depend on the name "acroread" for the executable.
Depend the port on linux-XFree86-libs, as the most recent versions of
linux_base do no longer contain the X11 libraries. For older versions
of linux_base, this might cause a conflict, but I believe these older
versions are incompatible with the linux-gtk2 prerequisite anyway.
Disable the PPKLite plug-in as we do not want another dependency (on
linux-openldap-libraries where we don't even have a port for). This
is done by chmod 0'ing the plug-in, so anyone interested in it can
easily get it alive again. That way, the annoying popup message at
startup is avoided.
Not resolved: I'd rather leave it to the maintainer to decide whether
and how the installation should go to ${LOCALBASE} instead of
${LINUXBASE}. Technically, I see the description for LINUXBASE in
${PORTSDIR}/Mk/bsd.ports.mk fit here, so this is not strictly a
violation of policy. |

Say hello to the linux mega patch, it consolidates our linux bits a
little bit and allows to proceed to a more recent linux_base from
a stable (read as: the major bugs should be ironed out or identified
and most linux ports build just fine) source.
It also allows to ship 4.11 with a working linuxolator (the EOLed
linux_base is marked forbidden because of a security hole).
This is a major update, please read UPDATING (and CHANGES if you
develop linux ports).
Changes:
- change the default linux_base from v7 to v8
- add a newer freetype to linux_base-8 for nicer fonts display [1]
- don't let cpio use hardlinks in the linux_base-8 port to quiet some (Only the first 15 lines of the commit message are shown above ) |
