portsclean:
- Rewrite in Ruby and implement the distfiles cleaner. [new]
portsdb:
- Show a progress message while updating INDEX.*.
- Record version information into INDEX.rdo.
- Record category information into INDEX.rdo and enhance the API
accordingly.
- Introduce the automatic PORTS_DBDIR selector. Now it will use
whichever writable directory in the following ones: $PORTS_DBDIR,
$PORTS_DIR, /usr/ports, $PKG_DBDIR, /var/db/pkg, $TMPDIR, /var/tmp,
/tmp (checked in the order named)
portcvsweb:
- New tool: a tool to open CVSweb to view a CVS log. [new]
pkg_deinstall:
- Bring in most of the options of pkg_delete(1).
- Add a new option `-P', which preserves shared libraries.
- List failed packages if any.
- Obsolete GNU style long options, which take space and would
only rarely be used.
portupgrade:
- Make portupgrade use pkg_deinstall instead of pkg_delete, to
utilize its -P option.
- Now portupgrade always uninstalls old packages, but
preserves shared libraries by default. The -u option has
been changed to mean "Do not preserve old shared libraries".
Note, however, that its behavior is the same as before, it
is just the default behavior that has been changed.
With this change, portupgrade no longer leaves extra garbage
even if you don't specify -u, but only old versions of
shared libraries for safety. :)
- Utilize $tmpdir properly for pkg_tarup. (previously
PKGREPOSITORY was used prior to PKG_TMPDIR or TMPDIR)
- Add a notice regarding the disk space for backup files.
Since it's my birthday today, I just wish this update doesn't contain
terrible bugs.. ;)
overall:
- Fix commands not to quit when user answers ^D to a yes/no question.
- Call pkg_* commands in fullpaths.
portupgrade:
- When -s is specified, run sudo to build & install dependent ports
when some are missing, too.
portsclean:
- This is a new command which cleans ports' working directories.
portupgrade:
- Make portupgrade a little bit more fail-safe by restoring modified
dependency info on installation failure.
portversion:
- Make portversion refer to the ports database and run several times
faster. (!)
portsdb:
- Do not immediately fail in error when it finds an error in the INDEX
file, but skip the line and continue.

Introduce a new environment variable PORTS_DBDIR, which specifies
an alternative ports database directory. This is useful when
/usr/ports is on a readonly filesystem.
[Requested by: Makoto MATSUSHITA <matusita@jp.freebsd.org>]
Warn and abort the update if PORTS_DBDIR is not writable,
instead of just failing in error.
-B CMD
--beforebuild CMD Run the sapecified command before each build. If the
command exits in failure, the port/package will be
skipped. Here is some typical uses:
portupgrade -B 'cvs update' 'gnome*'
portupgrade -aB 'test ! `make -V IS_INTERACTIVE`'
-x GLOB
--exclude GLOB Exclude packages matching the specified glob pattern.
Exclusion is performed after recursing dependency in
response to -r and/or -R, which means, for example,
the following command will upgrade all the packages
depending on XFree86 but leave XFree86 as it is:
portupgrade -rx XFree86 XFree86
portupgrade:
Add a new option: -N/--new. If it is specified, portupgrade
installs a new one when a specified package is not installed.
portinstall:
New command equivalent to `portupgrade -N'. You can specify a port
origin to name the one you want to install, too:
e.g. `portinstall shells/zsh'
This is a maintenance release.
- Manpages provided.
- Ports DB got faster.
- Wording fixed.
- New feature added to portsdb(1): you can use it to expand
port/pkgname globs. (archivers/p5-*, zsh, gnome*, etc.)
Beware of bugs, just in case. ;)
portupgrade:
- Sort packages by default and remove -s/--sort.
- Rename -y/--yield/-Y/--yield-command to -s/--sudo/-S/--sudo-command.
- Implement -a/--all.
- Implement -x/--exclude=GLOB.
- Exit on OptionParser::ParseError immediately.
- Do not call "make fetch-recursive" but just "make fetch", now that
portupgrade does recursion itself.
- In fetch mode, specify -DPACKAGE_BUILDING for ports that define
IS_INTERACTIVE. [Submitted by: Jimmy Olgeni <olgeni@uli.it>]]
portversion:
- Exit on OptionParser::ParseError immediately.
portsdb:
- New tool: which updates INDEX and INDEX.db in the ports directory.
pkgdepfix:
- Implement origin fixer with intelligent guessing, finally!
(-o/--fix-origin)
- Make pkgdep guessing more intelligent.
portupgrade:
- Change the meaning of -P/--use-packages. If specified once, it
uses packages whenever available or uses ports. If specified
twice, it never try to use ports but only uses packages.
- The package directory is now specified via the environment
variable, by PKGREPOSITORY and PKGREPOSITORYSUBDIR.
Print the usages to stdout instead of stderr.
portupgrade:
- Implement -P/--use-packages, which everyone bugged me with. :>
pkgdepfix:
- Add "delete" to the choices as to how to deal with a stale
dependency.
- Alter the prompt message.
- Add zsh compdef.
pkgdepfix:
- Implement automatic guessing.
- Add yes-to-all to the choices of yes/no prompt.
- Do "stty sane" on interrupt.
portupgrade:
- Backing up +REQUIRED_BY must have been done before pkg_delete.
[Submitted by: SASAKI Katuhiro <sahiro@vanilla.freemail.ne.jp>]
Because of the portupgrade bug, portupgrade -u would have broken some
of your +REQUIRED_BY files. Please fix them up with pkgdepfix.
this is version 20010606.
A new tool pkgdepfix is added. It allows you to interactively fix
/var/db/pkg's @pkgdep / +REQUIRED_BY discrepancies. Run this
periodically to let portupgrade properly trace dependencies.
I think I have finally fixed the problem some people have seen that it
deletes a package registry in some cases! At the same time, -m and -p
now works properly again.
Those problems were all due to Shellwords::shellwords' destroying its
given string. Thanks to Tadayuki OKADA <tadayuki@mediaone.net> for
sending me a report that made me realize what the problem was.
* No need to recurse @pkgdep search, really.
* Support the latest pkg_tarup.
* Backup +REQUIRED_BY a bit earlier, just in case.
* If it fails to copy the new +REQUIRED_BY to the package's dbdir,
emit a message and save the file in TMPDIR.
portupgrade:
- Fix a bug that -s/--sort didn't work. D'oh!
- Make -u/--uninstall fail-safe. It backs up old
installations with the help of pkg_tarup and restores on
installation failure.
- Show option errors more gracefully.
- Die on signals more gracefully.
portversion:
- Show option errors more gracefully.
- Die on signals more gracefully.
This is a milestone release for me. Enjoy. :>
portupgrade changes:
- Implement -s/--sort which sorts packages in the dependency order.
- Implement -R/--upward-recursive, and get -r/--recursive working for
upgrading as well. (Finally!)
- Add -DBATCH to the make fetch' commandline to prevent ports from
dumbly waiting for user input.
Greatly inspired by: Jimmy Olgeni <olgeni@uli.it> (Thanks!!)
portversion changes:
- Make command output optimal by using portupgrade's -s option.
- Report possible ports' Makefile breakage.

- bsd.port.mk update to use bsd.kde.mk for USE_{QT,KDE}*
- Cleanup corresponding ports for bsd.kde.mk update.
- Fix bsd.kde.mk: use correct kdelibs dependency, put qt at the bottom,
introduce QT_NONSTANDARD variable for nonstandard configure setup.
- Update KDE2 to 2.1.1. Two patches included in x11/kdelibs2 to fix the
proxy authentication that was broken for 2.1.1. Remove old patches.
- Potentially fix kdelibs build for alpha.
- Fix qt-designer 2.3.0 build.
- Ruby stuff left alone since it looks like black magic to me. Should
still work w/ compat shims for older USE_QT[,2] style. Some others
were also left alone for the same reason.

It upgrades ports without reinstalling dependent packages by directly

- Fix maxchars checker that has been broken.
- Fix "use ldconfig with ||/usr/bin/true" checker. (patch submitted by

Besides, "country code" is corrected to "language code".
- Add french and hebrew to the list of lang-specific categories.
- Properly omit the checks against PORTNAME section etc. when the
testee is a slave port.
- Add "INSTALLS_SHLIB may be missing" checker which searches pkg-plist
for `*.so' and `*.so.<nn>'.
- Make it dynamically read bsd.sites.mk so that we no longer need to
keep it always in sync with bsd.sites.mk. It now should recognize
`/%SUBDIR%/' part too.
- Change `split(/\s+/, "blah blah blah")' to `qw(blah blah blah)'.
- Add some dummy comments that prevent Emacs' CPerl mode from

- Add a condition "unless this is a master port" to the warnings that
are specific to master ports, because currently we can't know if a
port is a master port.

- better rcsid checking
- add DIST_SUBDIR to section 1 of the Makefile
- add check for WWW: in pkg/DESCR when http:// exists
- add new -t flag, which will require a tab after a variable defination instead
of spaces
- cleanup english grammar
- add -M (make variable passing) flag
- change into portdir instead of constantly using $portdir/file
- get variables from make instead of parsing the Makefile
- update usage()
- fix some portname/version bugs
- add EXTRACT_ONLY to section 1
- fix multi comment sections on top bug
I think I'm going to start a rewrite of lots of portlint's code to
*hopefully* make it easier to add new checks in the future. If you
have any requests of things for me to put on portlint's TODO list,
send me an email letting me know what they are.
Fixes:
* fix some portname/version checking bugs
* put EXTRACT_ONLY in section 1 checking
* fix multi comment sections at top of Makefile regex
* make portlint pass perl -w (this found a few bugs)
No new features in this version
isn't 100% ready for prime time, but it works well enough that it should
be fine to use for most things. I'm not sure if I'll have time to fix
the few minor bugs that I know of and give it a good testing today.
Parts of the PORTNAME/PORTVERSION changes were submitted by knu.
Other changes in this version:
* add "-V", version flag
* use getopts instead of parsing @ARGV
- this fixes a bug where you could only specify one flag after the
dash (ie. -c -N would work and -cN wouldn't)
* change some warnings to fatals
* ignore dot directives in Makefile
- this usually reduces the number of warnings displayed when
a Makefile contains .include or .if foo
* don't blame just emacs for leaving around temporary editor files
* don't warn about installing files into /compat
* correct counting of number of chars in pkg/COMMENT
* understand multiple rcsid tags in the comments section
- this allows us to have both $FreeBSD$ and $NetBSD$, for example
without getting funky warning messages
* scope variables with my instead of local so we can use strict to
help us find bugs in portlint

New portlint features:
* Allow pkg/COMMENT to start with a digit
* Warn about .la files in pkg/PLIST
* Better support for comments in the Makefile
- fixes the section off by 1 error

* don't report "FATAL: no MAINTAINER listed in Makefile" when it does exist
* other random minor bug fixes
- enforce pkg/COMMENT style
- better info file checking in pkg/PLIST
- don't warn about @unexec rmdir foo || true - the handbook says this is fine
- allow CATEGORIES+=
- warn about www.freebsd.org/~user needing to be people.freebsd.org
- warn about PKGNAME being set from another variable instead of being a
fatal error
- understand both $(PORTSDIR) and ${PORTSDIR}

imported revision is 1.65 (in my local RCS file). (pseudo) version
number for the port is now 2.0.
Whoever make changes to bsd.port.mk is advised to update portlint.pl

Note that portlint.pl MUST be portable enough to handle (Net|Open|Free)BSD

platforms.
Portcheckout(1) checks out a FreeBSD port and all runtime
and buildtime depending ports into the current working
directory. The output is written to stdout as an
executable shell-script.
Compiling a FreeBSD port usually require a full tree of ports
in /usr/port. A cvs checkout or a cvs update command takes
a very long time and need much free space.
With portcheckout, you checkout only the parts of the port
tree which you really need. This is a magnitude faster!

and thus outdate the virtual category in the depender.
