all the COMMENTs! No package names, no version numbers, no "this is
absolutix-3.1.2" type comments that have zero information contents.
Now, without any bad examples to follow, nobody has an excuse to import
a port with those kind of comments. :)
Phew! 238 ports modified!
called with a "-s" flag for shell-scripts, fells flat on the nose and doesn't
install them.
We have a serious problem with name overloading here. The bsd.port.mk file
uses INSTALL and INSTALL_PROGRAM that is also used from GNU's autoconfigure
script. If configure detects them it uses it happily with sometimes surprising
results. Normally configure know that shell scripts doesn't need the "-s"
flag but our INSTALL in bsd.port.mk always uses the "-s" flag and overides
configure's autodetection of the correct install and the installflags.
1. Make MASTER_SITES entries contain a trailing /. Garrett says that
assuming a '/' seperator between entries in MASTER_SITES and entries
in DISTFILES is a dangerous assumption. This will also be taken
out of bsd.port.mk.
2. General clean-up. Some of these Makefiles were a little grim.
Make sure they're all in sync with the sometimes rapidly changing
bsd.port.mk! :)
3. Some small configuration tweaks to keep them compiling under the
most recent 2.0 - some things seem to have broken along our road
to release.
can just give me a little utility that ftps things based on an
ftp://... spec (connects as anonymous, fetches by full path, etc)
I might be able to make bsd.port.mk DTRT automagically.
