- CDE - The Common Desktop Environment is an X Windows desktop environment
that was commonly used on commercial UNIX variants such as Sun Solaris,
HP-UX, and IBM AIX. Developed between 1993 and 1999, it has now been
released under an Open source license by The Open Group.
Common Desktop Environment requires the Subprocess Control Service,
dtcms, and the inetd super server to fully function.
First, add the following line to /etc/inetd.conf:
dtspc stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/dt/bin/dtspcd /usr/local/dt/bin/dtspcd
Second, add the following line to /etc/services:
dtspc 6112/tcp # CDE Subprocess Control Service
# sysrc rpcbind_enable=YES
# sysrc dtcms_enable=YES
# sysrc inetd_enable=YES
# service rpcbind start && service dtcms start && service inetd start
Finally, make sure to add /usr/local/dt/bin to your path.
To start the Common Desktop Environment:
% env LANG=C startx /usr/local/dt/bin/Xsession
Alternatively, if you want to use the Login Manager as well, create
/usr/local/etc/X11/Xwrapper.config and add this line:
allowed_users=anybody
To start the Common Desktop Enviroment Login Manager:
% /usr/local/dt/bin/dtlogin -daemon

src bb421be6c117 moved ftime(3) to libutil. This resulted in this
error:
ld: error: undefined symbol: ftime
>>> referenced by getdate.c
>>> libDtCmP_a-getdate.o:(cm_getdate) in archive
../libDtCmP/libDtCmP.a
There are other programs and libraries that also reference ftime(3).
Rather than patch each Makefile.am, add -lutil to LDFLAGS.

As of src d5c85ac6526d, the tzcode update removed the tzsetwall()

"undocumented and ineffective."

x11/cde-{25,devel}: Remove BROKEN for imake build issues
As of 2.5.0 (from HISTORY in the tarball),
This release is the first to use autotools for building. The Imake
build system is gone. No doubt there is more improvement that can be
done here (support cross compiling, make uninstall, etc), but
everything is functional. |

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles

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.

x11/cde-devel: Introduce x11/cde-devel
The x11/cde-devel port will track the CDE master development branch.
The cdesktopenv-code git repo on sourceforge is mirrored using my github
account and FreeBSD ports plumbing is used to fetch tarballs from github.
This port uses the x11/cde-25 port/pkg coexistence methodology to allow
it to be installed while a more stable version of x11/cde* is installed,
allowing users to safely use the port with a quick fallback should the
upstream software significanly break.
Users should ensure that their ~/.dt is backed up prior to switching
from a stable version of x11/cde* to x11/cde-devel or back again. |
