    Another random thread, where we speak about everything and nothing , because sometimes things are hard to cataloger.

    No gnatcoll on freebsd. No databases/adabase on freebsd. If no high-level Ada bindings are available in the FreeBSD ports, the most reliable method is to create a thin binding using the Interfaces.C package to talk directly to the sqlite3 C library. Boehaha .... And this my friend is for all...

    How to upgrade a local pkg or create an upgradable pkg?

    Create a port for it, and let the port create the package. Rename the configuration file to *.sample and in your pkg-plist you define it as a "sample" file. This is from security/sudo/pkg-plist for example: @sample etc/sudo.conf.sample This gets treated differently, if there is no existing...

    How to upgrade a local pkg or create an upgradable pkg?

    I compiled the scroll application from source and created a package (scroll-1.12.4.pkg) using pkg create. I then installed it with:pkg install ./scroll-1.12.4.pkg and everything worked fine. Recently, a new version of scroll was released, so I built the new version and packaged it as...

    First time (trying) to create a port I need guidance

    You have to learn the entire ports framework which is too much asked for a 1000 lines single-file program. Using FreeBSD for 20 years but I never made an official port because it's a massive maze that takes too much time with few results. I would contribute to a program that covers it in...

    First time (trying) to create a port I need guidance

    There is a Makefile option called CONFLICTS_INSTALL for these situations. I am not sure but the right procedure might be creating 2 port directories, one is for devel package and stable package without any pkg namesuffix. I guess poudriere and poudriere-devel might be a good example. Good luck!

    Other IBM PC-DOS 2000 on USB

    Yes, research and understanding, and a bit of grey beard to be alive and using DOS 40-45 years ago. For that 512 byte first sector to be bootable, the last 2 bytes should have the hex value 55h AAh. Find a bootable DOS disk and use 'dd' to copy the first 512 byte sector into a file...

    Adopt an orphaned port project

    Is this why I have to remove py311-cython3 manually because it conflcts with another branch? I don't remember exact details but a Firefox build stops if it exists. It's installed as dependency of something else. I added the "make deinstall " for this to my system create script, which is kind of...

    Solved Default FreeBSD.conf

    It doesn't exist by default. You are meant to create it and use it to change the URL in order to switch between 'latest' or 'quarterly' package repositories for example. -RELEASE versions always default to quarterly package repositories, -STABLE and -CURRENT both default to the latest...

    First time (trying) to create a port I need guidance

    Hi guys, thank you very much... I didn't expect to be so complicated creating a package for a go binary. To keep it as simple as possible I can put tex-luatex as dependency. This went already beyond my knowledge. I hope that to a port maintainer is allowed to create an innocuous symbolic link...

    My Alternative Package Tool and Ports System for FreeBSD

    This is a new package tool and ports system I’m working on. I started building it because I needed a specific set of packages that aren’t available in the FreeBSD ports tree, and one of the core libraries I rely on, skia is packaged incorrectly. I also require a different version than what’s...

    Pkg upgrade tries to remove KDE!

    Yeah, that's what I meant as well, if you're careful, they are okay, maybe I should have worded that more clearly :) Definitely agree, quarterly isn't safe from this either, but I feel like in quarterly it moreso happens to less important packages (or, not as important as a desktop-environment...

    This is what I do, I am not saying that is the solution though. pkg requires some missing files in the jail, just copy them directly into the jail. mkdir -p "$path_to_jail"/usr/share/keys/pkg/trusted cp /usr/share/keys/pkg/trusted/* "$path_to_jail"/usr/share/keys/pkg/trusted/ mkdir -p...
