This new design of syslog allows for an easy implementation of input and output
modules. The modules that mantain compatibility with its precursor (Secure
Syslog) are included in the standard distribution along with four modules:
om_peo (an implementation of PEO-1 and L-PEO, two algorithmic protocols for
integrity checking), om_mysql and om_pgsql (modules that sends output to a
MySQL and PostgreSQL database, respectively) and om_regex (a module that allows
output redirection using regular expressions).
===> The following configuration options are available for msyslog-1.08.g_5:
EXAMPLES=on: Build and/or install examples
MYSQL=off: MySQL database support
PGSQL=off: PostgreSQL database support
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
sysutils/msyslog: Mark DEPRECATED
- Last upstream release was in 2003
- Upstream WWW is no longer supporting this software and have removed
the relevant pages
- One of the MASTER_SITES no longer resolves
- Set EXPIRATION_DATE 2024-04-13
- Pet portclippy
If someone needs this port feel free to undeprecate and takeover
maintainership.
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.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
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.

In the rc.d scripts, change assignments to rcvar to use the
literal name_enable wherever possible, and ${name}_enable
when it's not, to prepare for the demise of set_rcvar().
In cases where I had to hand-edit unusual instances also
modify formatting slightly to be more uniform (and in
some cases, correct). This includes adding some $FreeBSD$
tags, and most importantly moving rcvar= to right after
name= so it's clear that one is derived from the other.
Remove painful examples of foo="", with particular prejudice against
constructions that parse out to [ -z "$foo" ] && foo=""
These are bad examples that get copied and pasted into new code, so the
hope is that with less bad examples there will be less need for me to
bring this up in review.
In a few of these files all that were changed were comments so that next
time I search for these patterns I won't trip on the file for no reason.
In a few places, add $FreeBSD$
No functional changes, so no PORTREVISION bumps
For ports maintained by ports@FreeBSD.org, remove names and/or
e-mail addresses from the pkg-descr file that could reasonably
be mistaken for maintainer contact information in order to avoid
confusion on the part of users looking for support. As a pleasant
side effect this also avoids confusion and/or frustration for people
who are no longer maintaining those ports.
Fix a few "bad example" problems in the rc.d scripts that have been
propogated by copy and paste.
1. Primarily the "empty variable" default assignment, which is mostly
${name}_flags="", but fix a few others as well.
2. Where they are not already documented, add the existence of the _flags
(or other deleted empties) option to the comments, and in some cases add
comments from scratch.
3. Replace things that look like:
prefix=%%PREFIX%%
command=${prefix}/sbin/foo
to just use %%PREFIX%%. In many cases the $prefix variable is only used
once, and in some cases it is not used at all.
4. In a few cases remove ${name}_flags from command_args
5. Remove a long-stale comment about putting the port's rc.d script in
/etc/rc.d (which is no longer necessary).
No PORTREVISION bumps because all of these changes are noops.
Update CONFIGURE_ARGS for how we pass CONFIGURE_TARGET to configure script.
Specifically, newer autoconf (> 2.13) has different semantic of the
configure target. In short, one should use --build=CONFIGURE_TARGET
instead of CONFIGURE_TARGET directly. Otherwise, you will get a warning
and the old semantic may be removed in later autoconf releases.
To workaround this issue, many ports hack the CONFIGURE_TARGET variable
so that it contains the ``--build='' prefix.
To solve this issue, under the fact that some ports still have
configure script generated by the old autoconf, we use runtime detection
in the do-configure target so that the proper argument can be used.
Changes to Mk/*:
- Add runtime detection magic in bsd.port.mk
(Only the first 15 lines of the commit message are shown above )
- s/INSTALLS_SHLIB/USE_LDCONFIG/
- Write notes about msyslogd_flags in pkg-message
- Add msyslogd_flags into rcng file [1]
- bump portversion
[1] Few people ask me todo that, i remember about it, but missed all email from
them, sorry guys.
no you names,emails here.
Split the postgresql ports into a server and a client part.
All ports depending on postgresql shall use the USE_PGSQL=yes knob
defined in Mk/bsd.ports.mk. Bumping portrevisions where needed.
PR: 75344
Approved by: portmgr@ (kris), ade & sean (mentors)
On request of DougB@, change of USE_PERL5 to USE_PERL5_RUN.
I'll send a PR regarding the real solution (= automatic USE_PERL5_RUN
when USE_AUTOCONF is selected)
